                               EXPLANATION

    The Code of Federal Regulations is a codification of the general and 
permanent rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive 
departments and agencies of the Federal Government. The Code is divided 
into 50 titles which represent broad areas subject to Federal 
regulation. Each title is divided into chapters which usually bear the 
name of the issuing agency. Each chapter is further subdivided into 
parts covering specific regulatory areas.
    Each volume of the Code is revised at least once each calendar year 
and issued on a quarterly basis approximately as follows:

Title 1 through Title 16.................................as of January 1
Title 17 through Title 27..................................as of April 1
Title 28 through Title 41...................................as of July 1
Title 42 through Title 50................................as of October 1
    The appropriate revision date is printed on the cover of each 
volume.

LEGAL STATUS

    The contents of the Federal Register are required to be judicially 
noticed (44 U.S.C. 1507). The Code of Federal Regulations is prima facie 
evidence of the text of the original documents (44 U.S.C. 1510).

HOW TO USE THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS

    The Code of Federal Regulations is kept up to date by the individual 
issues of the Federal Register. These two publications must be used 
together to determine the latest version of any given rule.
    To determine whether a Code volume has been amended since its 
revision date (in this case, July 1, 1998), consult the ``List of CFR 
Sections Affected (LSA),'' which is issued monthly, and the ``Cumulative 
List of Parts Affected,'' which appears in the Reader Aids section of 
the daily Federal Register. These two lists will identify the Federal 
Register page number of the latest amendment of any given rule.

EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATES

    Each volume of the Code contains amendments published in the Federal 
Register since the last revision of that volume of the Code. Source 
citations for the regulations are referred to by volume number and page 
number of the Federal Register and date of publication. Publication 
dates and effective dates are usually not the same and care must be 
exercised by the user in determining the actual effective date. In 
instances where the effective date is beyond the cut-off date for the 
Code a note has been inserted to reflect the future effective date. In 
those instances where a regulation published in the Federal Register 
states a date certain for expiration, an appropriate note will be 
inserted following the text.

OMB CONTROL NUMBERS

    The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (Pub. L. 96-511) requires 
Federal agencies to display an OMB control number with their information 
collection request.

[[Page vi]]

Many agencies have begun publishing numerous OMB control numbers as 
amendments to existing regulations in the CFR. These OMB numbers are 
placed as close as possible to the applicable recordkeeping or reporting 
requirements.

OBSOLETE PROVISIONS

    Provisions that become obsolete before the revision date stated on 
the cover of each volume are not carried. Code users may find the text 
of provisions in effect on a given date in the past by using the 
appropriate numerical list of sections affected. For the period before 
January 1, 1986, consult either the List of CFR Sections Affected, 1949-
1963, 1964-1972, or 1973-1985, published in seven separate volumes. For 
the period beginning January 1, 1986, a ``List of CFR Sections 
Affected'' is published at the end of each CFR volume.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

    What is incorporation by reference? Incorporation by reference was 
established by statute and allows Federal agencies to meet the 
requirement to publish regulations in the Federal Register by referring 
to materials already published elsewhere. For an incorporation to be 
valid, the Director of the Federal Register must approve it. The legal 
effect of incorporation by reference is that the material is treated as 
if it were published in full in the Federal Register (5 U.S.C. 552(a)). 
This material, like any other properly issued regulation, has the force 
of law.
    What is a proper incorporation by reference? The Director of the 
Federal Register will approve an incorporation by reference only when 
the requirements of 1 CFR part 51 are met. Some of the elements on which 
approval is based are:
    (a) The incorporation will substantially reduce the volume of 
material published in the Federal Register.
    (b) The matter incorporated is in fact available to the extent 
necessary to afford fairness and uniformity in the administrative 
process.
    (c) The incorporating document is drafted and submitted for 
publication in accordance with 1 CFR part 51.
    Properly approved incorporations by reference in this volume are 
listed in the Finding Aids at the end of this volume.
    What if the material incorporated by reference cannot be found? If 
you have any problem locating or obtaining a copy of material listed in 
the Finding Aids of this volume as an approved incorporation by 
reference, please contact the agency that issued the regulation 
containing that incorporation. If, after contacting the agency, you find 
the material is not available, please notify the Director of the Federal 
Register, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington DC 
20408, or call (202) 523-4534.

CFR INDEXES AND TABULAR GUIDES

    A subject index to the Code of Federal Regulations is contained in a 
separate volume, revised annually as of January 1, entitled CFR Index 
and Finding Aids. This volume contains the Parallel Table of Statutory 
Authorities and Agency Rules (Table I), and Acts Requiring Publication 
in the Federal Register (Table II). A list of CFR titles, chapters, and 
parts and an alphabetical list of agencies publishing in the CFR are 
also included in this volume.
    An index to the text of ``Title 3--The President'' is carried within 
that volume.
    The Federal Register Index is issued monthly in cumulative form. 
This index is based on a consolidation of the ``Contents'' entries in 
the daily Federal Register.

[[Page vii]]

    A List of CFR Sections Affected (LSA) is published monthly, keyed to 
the revision dates of the 50 CFR titles.

REPUBLICATION OF MATERIAL

    There are no restrictions on the republication of material appearing 
in the Code of Federal Regulations.

Sec. 202.5  Previously designated depositaries.

    A depositary previously designated will, by the acceptance or

theretofore pledged.
[32 FR 14215, Oct. 13, 1967]



Sec. 202.6  Collateral security.

    (a) Requirement. Prior to receiving deposits of public money, a 
depositary authorized to perform services under Sec. 202.3(b) must

the Treasury.
    (b) Acceptable security. Types and valuations of acceptable 
collateral security will be specified by the Secretary of the Treasury 
in Treasury procedural instructions.
    (c) Deposits of securities. Unless the Secretary of the Treasury 
provides otherwise, collateral security under this part must be 
deposited with the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch of the district in 
which the depositary is located (depositaries located in Puerto Rico and 
the Virgin Islands will be considered as being located in the New York 
Federal Reserve district), or with a custodian or custodians within the 
United States designated by the Federal Reserve Bank, under terms and 
conditions prescribed by the Federal Reserve Bank. Securities deposited 
with a Federal Reserve Bank must be accompanied by a letter stating 
specifically the purpose for which the securities are being deposited.
    (d) Assignment. A depository that pledges securities which are not 
negotiable without its endorsement or assignment may, in lieu of placing 
its unqualified endorsement on each security, furnish an appropriate 
resolution

[[Page 11]]

and irrevocable power of attorney authorizing the Federal Reserve Bank 
to assign the securities. The resolution and power of attorney shall 
conform to such terms and conditions as the Federal Reserve Banks shall 
prescribe.
    (e) Disposition of principal and interest payments of the pledged 
securities after a depositary is declared insolvent--(1) General. In the 
event of the depositary's insolvency or closure, or in the event of the 
appointment of a receiver, conservator, liquidator, or other similar 
officer to terminate its business, the depositary agrees that all 
principal and interest payments on any security pledged to protect 
public money due as of the date of the insolvency or closure, or 
thereafter becoming due, shall be held separate and apart from any other 
assets and shall constitute a part of the pledged security available to 
satisfy any claim of the United States, including those not arising out 
of the depositary relationship.
    (2) Payment procedures. (i) Subject to the waiver in paragraph 
(e)(2)(iii) of this section, each depositary (including, with respect to 
such depositary, an assignee for the benefit of creditors, a trustee in 
bankruptcy, or a receiver in equity) shall immediately remit each 
payment of principal and/or interest received by it with respect to 
collateral pledged pursuant to this section to the Federal Reserve Bank 
of the district, as fiscal agent of the United States, and in any event 
shall so remit no later than ten days after receipt of such a payment.
    (ii) Subject to the waiver in paragraph (e)(2)(iii) of this section, 
each obligor on a security pledged by a depositary pursuant to this 
section shall make each payment of principal and/or interest with 
respect to such security directly to the Federal Reserve Bank of the 
district, as fiscal agent of the United States.
    (iii) The requirements of paragraphs (e)(2) (i) and (ii) of this 
section are hereby waived for only so long as a pledging depositary 
remains solvent. The foregoing waiver is terminated without further 
action immediately upon the involvency of a pledging depositary or, if 
earlier, upon notice by the Treasury of such termination. For purposes 
of this paragraph, a depositary is insolvent when, voluntarily or by 
action of competent authority, it is closed because of present or 
prospective inability to meet the demands of its depositors or 
shareholders.
[32 FR 14216, Oct. 13, 1967, as amended at 36 FR 6748, Apr. 8, 1971; 36

11, 1979; 46 FR 28152, May 26, 1981; 62 FR 45521, Aug. 27, 1997]



Sec. 202.7  Maintenance of balances within authorizations.

Treasury, Financial Management Service, before making deposits with a 
financial institution insured by a State or agency thereof or by a 
corporation chartered by a State for the sole purpose of insuring 
deposits or accounts. The contact should be directed to the Cash 
Management Policy and Planning Division, Federal Finance, Financial 
Management Service, Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 20227.

money on deposit in accounts with depositaries are responsible for the 
maintenance of balances in such accounts within the limits of the 
authorizations specified by the Secretary of the Treasury.

Sec. 203.9  Scope of the subpart.

    This subpart prescribes the rules by which financial institutions 
shall process Federal tax payment transactions electronically. A 
financial institution does not need to be designated as a TT&L 
depositary in order to process electronic Federal tax payments. In 
addition, a financial institution that does process electronic Federal 
tax payments under this subpart does not thereby become a Federal 
Government depositary and shall not advertise itself as one because of 
that fact.

    (a) General. Taxpayers shall complete an enrollment process with the 
TFA prior to making their first electronic Federal tax payment.
    (b) Enrollment forms. The TFA shall provide financial institutions 
and taxpayers with enrollment forms upon request. The taxpayer is 
responsible for completing the enrollment form, obtaining the 
verifications required on the form, and returning the enrollment form to 
the TFA.
    (c) Verification. If the taxpayer elects the ACH debit entry method 
of paying taxes, an authorized representative of the financial 
institution shall verify the accuracy of the financial institution 
routing number, taxpayer account number, and taxpayer account type at 
the request of the taxpayer.



Sec. 203.11  Electronic payment methods.

    (a) General. Electronic payment methods for Federal tax payments 
available under this subpart include ACH debit entries, ACH credit 
entries, and same-day payments. Any financial institution that is 
capable of originating and/or receiving transactions for these payment 
methods, by itself or through a correspondent financial institution, may 
do so on behalf of a taxpayer.
    (b) Conditions to making an electronic payment. Nothing contained in 
this part shall affect the authority of financial institutions to enter 
into contracts with their customers regarding the terms and conditions 
for processing payments, provided that such terms and conditions are not 
inconsistent with this subpart and applicable law governing the 
particular transaction type.
    (c) Payment of interest for time value of funds held. Treasury will 
not pay interest on any payments erroneously paid

[[Page 16]]

to Treasury and subsequently refunded to the financial institution.



Sec. 203.12  Future-day reporting and payment mechanisms.

    (a) General. A financial institution may receive an ACH debit entry, 
originated by the TFA at the direction of the taxpayer; or, a financial 
institution may originate an ACH credit entry, at the direction of the 
taxpayer. Taxpayers will be credited for the actual amount received by 
Treasury.
    (b) ACH debit. A financial institution receiving an ACH debit entry 
originated by the TFA shall, as applicable:
    (1) Timely verify the account number and account type contained in 
an ACH prenotification entry;
    (2) Timely and properly return a prenotification entry that contains 
an invalid account number or account type, or otherwise is erroneous or 
unprocessable;
    (3) Timely and accurately notify the TFA of incorrect information on 
entries received, using a Notification of Change entry; and
    (4) Timely and accurately return an entry not posted, including but 
not limited to, a return or a contested dishonored return for acceptable 
return reasons, as set forth in the procedural instructions.
    (c) ACH credit. A financial institution originating an ACH credit 
entry at the direction of a taxpayer shall:
    (1) At the request of the taxpayer, originate either an ACH 
prenotification containing the taxpayer's identification number or a 
zero dollar ACH entry with the appropriate addenda record. Additional 
format information is contained in the procedural instructions;
    (2) Format the ACH credit entry in the ACH format approved by 
Treasury for Federal tax payments;
    (3) Originate an ACH credit entry by the appropriate deadline, as 
specified by the FRB or Treasury, whichever is earlier, in order to meet 
the tax due date specified by the taxpayer; and
    (4) Provide the taxpayer, upon request, a transaction trace number, 
or some other method to trace the tax payment.
    (d) ACH credit reversals. Reversals may be initiated for a duplicate 
or erroneous file or entry. No advance approval from, or notification 
to, the IRS is required when originating an ACH credit reversal. 
Documentation of reversals shall be made available as set forth in the 
procedural instructions.



Sec. 203.13  Same-day reporting and payment mechanisms.

    (a) General. A financial institution or its authorized correspondent 
may initiate same-day reporting and payment transactions on behalf of 
taxpayers. A same-day payment must be received by the FRB of the 
district by the deadline established by the Treasury in the procedural 
instructions. Taxpayers will be credited for the actual amount received 
by Treasury.
    (b) Fedwire value transfer. To initiate a Fedwire value tax payment, 
the financial institution shall be a Fedwire participant and shall 
comply with the FRB's Fedwire format for tax payments. The taxpayer's 
financial institution shall provide the taxpayer, upon request, the IMAD 
and the ETA reference numbers for a Fedwire value transfer. The 
financial institution may obtain the ETA reference number for Fedwire 
value transfers from its FRB by supplying the related IMAD number. 
Fedwire value transfers settle immediately to the TGA and thus are not 
credited to a depositary's note balance.
    (c) Fedwire non-value transaction. By initiating a Fedwire non-value 
transaction, a financial institution authorizes the FRB of the district 
to debit its Federal Reserve account or, for a TT&L depositary, to debit 
the Federal Reserve account of the depositary or its designated 
correspondent financial institution, for the amount of the tax payment 
specified in the transaction. To initiate a Fedwire non-value 
transaction, the financial institution shall be a Fedwire participant 
and shall comply with the FRB's Fedwire format for tax payments. The 
taxpayer's financial institution shall provide the taxpayer, upon 
request, the IMAD and ETA reference numbers for the Fedwire non-value 
transaction. The financial institution may obtain the ETA reference 
number for Fedwire non-value transactions from its FRB by supplying the 
related IMAD number.

[[Page 17]]

    (1) For a note option depositary using a Fedwire non-value 
transaction, the tax payment amount will be credited to the depositary's 
note balance on the day of the transaction.
    (2) For a remittance option depositary using a Fedwire non-value 
transaction, the tax payment amount will be debited from the Federal 
Reserve account of the depositary or the depositary's designated 
correspondent and credited to the TGA on the day of the transaction.
    (3) For a non-TT&L depositary financial institution using a Fedwire 
non-value transaction, the tax payment amount will be debited from the 
financial institution's Federal Reserve account and credited to the TGA 
on the day of the transaction.
    (d) Direct Access transaction. By initiating a Direct Access 
transaction, a financial institution authorizes the FRB of the district 
to debit its Federal Reserve account or, for a TT&L depositary, to debit 
the Federal Reserve account of the depositary or its designated 
correspondent financial institution for the amount of the tax payment 
specified in the transaction. The taxpayer's financial institution shall 
provide the taxpayer, upon request, the ETA reference number for the 
Direct Access transaction.
    (1) For a note option depositary using a Direct Access transaction, 
the tax payment amount will be credited to the depositary's note balance 
on the day of the transaction.
    (2) For a remittance option depositary or a non-TT&L depositary 
financial institution using a Direct Access transaction, the tax payment 
amount will be debited from the Federal Reserve account of the financial 
institution or its designated correspondent financial institution, and 
credited to the TGA on the day of the transaction.
    (e) Cancellations and reversals. In addition to cancellations due to 
insufficient funds in the financial institution's Federal Reserve 
account, the FRB may reverse a same-day transaction:
    (1) If the transaction:
    (i) Is originated by a financial institution after the deadline 
established by the Treasury in the procedural instructions;
    (ii) Has an unenrolled taxpayer identification number; or
    (iii) Does not meet the edit and format requirements set forth in 
the procedural instructions; or,
    (2) At the direction of the IRS, for the following reasons:
    (i) Incorrect taxpayer name;
    (ii) Overpayment; or
    (iii) Unidentified payment; or,
    (3) At the request of the financial institution that sent the same-
day transaction, if the request is made prior to the deadline 
established by Treasury in the procedural instructions on the day the 
payment was made.
    (f) Other than as stated in paragraph (e) of this section, Treasury 
is not obligated to reverse all or any part of a payment.



Sec. 203.14  Electronic Federal Tax Payment System interest assessments.

    (a) Circumstances subject to interest assessments. Treasury may 
assess interest on a financial institution in instances where a taxpayer 
that failed to meet a tax due date proves to the IRS that the delivery 
of tax payment instructions to the financial institution was timely and 
that the taxpayer satisfied the conditions imposed by the financial 
institution pursuant to Sec. 203.11(b). Treasury also may assess 
interest where a financial institution failed to respond to an ACH 
prenotification entry on an ACH debit as required in Sec. 203.12(b) or 
failed to originate an ACH prenotification or zero dollar entry on an 
ACH credit as described in Sec. 203.12(c) which then resulted in a late 
payment.
    (b) Calculation of interest assessment. Any interest assessed under 
this section will be at the TT&L rate. The interest will be assessed 
from the day the taxpayer specified that its payment should settle to 
the Treasury until the receipt of the payment by Treasury, subject to 
the following limitations: For ACH debit transactions, interest will be 
limited to no more than seven calendar days; for ACH credit and same-day 
transactions, interest will be limited to no more than 45 calendar days. 
The limitation of liability in this paragraph does not apply to any 
interest assessment in which there is an indication of fraud, the 
presentation of a false claim, or misrepresentation or

[[Page 18]]

embezzlement on the part of the financial institution or any employee or 
agent of the financial institution.
    (c) Authorization to assess interest. A financial institution that 
processes Federal tax payments made by electronic payment methods under 
this subpart is deemed to authorize the FRB to debit its Federal Reserve 
account or the account of its designated correspondent financial 
institution for any interest assessed under this section. Upon the 
direction of Treasury, the FRB shall debit the Federal Reserve account 
of the financial institution or the account of its designated 
correspondent financial institution for the amount of the assessed 
interest.
    (d) Circumstances not subject to the assessment of interest. (1) 
Treasury will not assess interest on a taxpayer's financial institution 
if a taxpayer fails to meet a tax due date because the taxpayer has not 
satisfied conditions imposed by the financial institution pursuant to 
Sec. 203.11(b) and the financial institution has not contributed to the 
delay. The burden is on the financial institution to establish, pursuant 
to the procedures in Sec. 203.16, that the taxpayer has not satisfied 
the conditions and that the financial institution has not contributed to 
the delay.
    (2) Treasury will not assess interest on a financial institution if 
the delay causing the interest assessment is due to the FRB or the TFA 
and the financial institution did not contribute to the delay. The 
burden is on the financial institution to establish, pursuant to the 
procedures in Sec. 203.16, that it did not cause or contribute to the 
delay.



Sec. 203.15  Prohibited debits through the Automated Clearing House.

    (a) General. The Treasury has instituted operational safeguards to 
scrutinize all entries that remove funds from the TGA. In the event 
funds are removed from the TGA without authority, this section sets 
forth the liability of financial institutions originating such entries. 
Accordingly, a financial institution shall not originate an ACH 
transaction to debit the TGA without the prior written permission of 
Treasury. Unauthorized entries under this section do not include 
reversal entries of previously initiated ACH credits authorized in 
Sec. 203.12(d).
    (b) Liability. A financial institution that originates an 
unauthorized ACH entry that debits the TGA shall be liable to Treasury 
for the amount of the transaction and shall be liable for interest 
charges as specified in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (c) Authorization to recover principal and assess interest charge. 
By initiating unauthorized debits to the TGA through the ACH, a 
financial institution is deemed to authorize the FRB to debit its 
Federal Reserve account or the account of its designated correspondent 
financial institution for any principal and, if applicable, an interest 
charge assessed by Treasury under this section.
    (d) Interest charge calculation. The interest charge shall be at a 
rate equal to the Federal funds rate plus two percent. The interest 
charge shall be assessed for each calendar day from the day the TGA was 
debited to the day the TGA is recredited with the full amount of 
principal due.



Sec. 203.16  Appeal and dispute resolution.

    (a) Contest. A financial institution may contest any interest 
assessed under Sec. 203.14, any principal or interest assessed under 
Sec. 203.15, or any late fees assessed under Sec. 203.20. The financial 
institution shall submit information supporting its position and the 
relief sought. The information must be received, in writing, by the 
Treasury officer or fiscal agent identified in the procedural 
instructions, no later than 90 calendar days after the date the FRB 
debits the reserve account of the financial institution under 
Secs. 203.14, 203.15, or 203.20. The Treasury officer or fiscal agent 
will: uphold the assessment, or reverse the assessment, or modify the 
assessment, or mandate other action.
    (b) Appeal. The financial institution may appeal the decision to 
Treasury as set forth in the procedural instructions. No further 
administrative review of the Treasury's decision is available under this 
Part.
    (c) Recoveries. In the event of an over or under recovery of either 
interest, principal, or late fees, Treasury will instruct the FRB to 
credit or debit the

[[Page 19]]

Federal Reserve account of the financial institution or its designated 
correspondent financial institution, as appropriate.



                     Subpart C--Federal Tax Deposits



Sec. 203.17  Scope of the subpart.

    This subpart applies to all depositaries that accept FTD coupons and 
governs the acceptance and processing of those coupons.



Sec. 203.18  Tax deposits using Federal Tax Deposit coupons.

    (a) FTD coupons. A depositary that accepts FTD coupons, through any 
of its offices that accept demand and/or savings deposits, shall:
    (1) Accept from a taxpayer, cash, a postal money order drawn to the 
order of the depositary, or a check or draft drawn on and to the order 
of the depositary, covering an amount to be deposited as Federal taxes 
when accompanied by an FTD coupon on which the amount of the deposit has 
been properly entered in the space provided. A depositary may accept, at 
its discretion, a check drawn on another financial institution, but it 
does so at its option and absorbs for its own account any float and 
other costs involved.
    (2) Issue a counter receipt when requested to do so by a taxpayer 
that makes an FTD deposit over the counter.
    (3) Place a stamp impression on the face of each FTD coupon in the 
space provided. The stamp shall reflect the date on which the tax 
deposit was received and the name and location of the depositary. The 
timeliness of the tax payment will be determined by reference to the 
date stamped by the depositary on the FTD coupon.
    (4) Credit, on the date of receipt, all FTD deposits to the TT&L 
account and administer that account pursuant to the provisions of this 
part.
    (5) Forward, each day, to the IRS Center servicing the geographical 
area in which the depositary is located, the FTD coupons for all FTD 
deposits received that day. The FTD coupons shall be accompanied by an 
advice of credit reflecting the total amount of all FTD coupons.
    (6) Establish an adequate record of all FTD deposits prior to 
transmittal to the IRS Center so that the depositary will be able to 
identify deposits in the event tax deposit coupons are lost in shipment. 
For tracking purposes, a record shall be made of each FTD deposit 
showing, at a minimum, the date of deposit, the taxpayer identification 
number, and the amount of the deposit. The depositary's copy of the 
advice of credit may be used to provide the necessary information if 
individual deposits are listed separately, showing date, taxpayer 
identification number, and amount.
    (7) Deliver its advices of credit to the FRB by the cutoff hour 
designated by the FRB for receipt of advices.
    (8) Not accept compensation from taxpayers for accepting FTDs and 
handling them as required by this section.
    (b) FTD deposits with Federal Reserve Banks. An FRB shall:
    (1) Accept an FTD directly from a taxpayer when such tax deposit is:
    (i) Mailed or delivered by a taxpayer; and
    (ii) Provided in the form of cash or a check or postal money order 
payable to the order of that FRB; and,
    (iii) Accompanied by an FTD coupon on which the amount of the tax 
deposit has been properly entered in the space provided.
    (2) Issue a counter receipt, when requested to do so by a taxpayer 
that makes an FTD over the counter; and,
    (3) Place, in the space provided on the face of each FTD coupon 
accepted directly from a taxpayer, a stamp impression reflecting the 
name of the FRB and the date on which the tax deposit will be credited 
to the TGA. Timeliness of the Federal tax payment will be determined by 
this date. However, if a deposit is mailed to an FRB, it shall be 
subject to the ``Timely mailing treated as timely filing and paying'' 
clause of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. 7502; and,
    (4) Credit the TGA with the amount of the tax payment;
    (i) On the date the payment is received, if payment is made in cash; 
or,
    (ii) On the date the proceeds of the tax payment are collected, if 
payment is made by postal money order or check.

[[Page 20]]



Sec. 203.19  Note option.

    (a) Late delivery of advices of credit. If an advice of credit does 
not arrive at the FRB before the designated cutoff hour for receipt of 
such advices, the FRB will post the funds to the note balance as of the 
next business day after the date on the advice of credit. This is the 
date on which funds will begin to earn interest for Treasury.
    (b) Transfer of funds from TT&L account to the note balance. For a 
depositary selecting the note option, funds equivalent to the amount of 
deposits credited by a depositary to the TT&L account shall be withdrawn 
by the depositary and credited to the note balance on the business day 
following the receipt of the tax payment.



Sec. 203.20  Remittance option.

    (a) FTD late fee. If an advice of credit does not arrive at the FRB 
before the designated cutoff hour for receipt of such advices, an FTD 
late fee in the form of interest at the TT&L rate will be assessed for 
each day's delay in receipt of such advice. Upon the direction of 
Treasury, the FRB shall debit the Federal Reserve account of the 
financial institution or the account of its designated correspondent 
financial institution for the amount of the late fee.
    (b) Withdrawals. For a depositary selecting the Remittance Option, 
the amount of deposits credited by a depositary to the TT&L account will 
be withdrawn upon receipt by the FRB of the advices of credit. The FRB 
will charge the depositary's Federal Reserve account or the account of 
the depositary's designated correspondent financial institution.



 Subpart D--Investment Program and Collateral Security Requirements for 
                   Treasury Tax and Loan Depositaries



Sec. 203.21  Scope of the subpart.

    This subpart provides rules for TT&L depositaries on crediting note 
balances under the various payment methods; debiting note balances; and 
pledging collateral security.



Sec. 203.22  Sources of balances.

    Depositaries electing to participate in the investment program can 
receive Treasury's investments in obligations of the depositary from the 
following sources:
    (a) FTDs that have been credited to the TT&L account pursuant to 
subpart C of this part;
    (b) EFTPS ACH credit and debit transactions, Fedwire non-value 
transactions, and Direct Access transactions pursuant to subpart B of 
this part; and
    (c) Direct investments and special direct investments pursuant to 
subpart D of this part.



Sec. 203.23  Note balance.

    (a) Additions. Treasury will invest funds in obligations of 
depositaries selecting the note option. Such obligations shall be in the 
form of open-ended, interest-bearing notes; and additions and reductions 
will be reflected on the books of the FRB of the district.
    (1) FTD system. A depositary processing tax deposits using the FTD 
system and electing the note option shall debit the TT&L account and 
credit its note balance as stated in Sec. 203.19(b).
    (2) EFTPS--(i) ACH debit and ACH credit. A note option depositary 
processing EFTPS ACH debit entries and/or ACH credit entries shall 
credit its note balance for the value of the transactions on the date 
that an exchange of funds is reflected on the books of the Federal 
Reserve Bank of the district. Financial institutions may refer to the 
procedural instructions for information on how to ascertain the amount 
of the credit to the note balance.
    (ii) Fedwire non-value and Direct Access. A note option depositary 
processing Fedwire non-value and/or Direct Access transactions pursuant 
to subpart B of this part shall credit its note balance and debit its 
customer's account for the value of the transactions on the date ETA 
receives and processes the transactions.
    (b) Other additions. Other funds from Treasury may be offered from 
time to time to certain note option depositaries through direct 
investments, special direct investments, or other investment programs.
    (c) Note balance withdrawals. The amount of the note balance shall 
be

[[Page 21]]

payable on demand without prior notice. Calls for payment on the note 
will be by direction of the Secretary through the FRBs. On behalf of 
Treasury, the FRB shall charge the reserve account of the depositary or 
the depositary's designated correspondent on the day specified in the 
call for payment.
    (d) Interest. A note shall bear interest at the TT&L rate. Such 
interest is payable by a charge to the Federal Reserve account of the 
depositary or its designated correspondent in the manner prescribed in 
the procedural instructions.
    (e) Maximum balance--(1) Note option depositaries. A depositary 
selecting the note option shall establish a maximum balance for its note 
by providing notice to that effect in writing to the FRB of the 
district. The maximum balance is the amount of funds for which a note 
option depositary is willing to provide collateral in accordance with 
Sec. 203.24(c)(1). The depositary shall provide the advance notice 
required in the procedural instructions before reducing the established 
maximum balance unless it is a reduction resulting from a collateral re-
evaluation as determined by the depositary's FRB. That portion of any 
advice of credit or EFTPS tax payment, which, when posted at the FRB, 
would cause the note balance to exceed the maximum balance amount 
specified by the depositary, will be withdrawn by the FRB that day.
    (2) Direct investment depositaries. A note option depositary that 
participates in direct investment shall set a maximum balance for direct 
investment purposes which is higher than its peak balance normally 
generated by the depositary's advices of credit and EFTPS tax payment 
inflow. The direct investment note option depositary shall provide the 
advance notice required in the procedural instructions before reducing 
the established maximum balance.
    (3) Special direct investment depositaries. Special direct 
investments, while credited to the note balance, shall not be considered 
in setting the amount of the maximum balance or in determining the 
amounts to be withdrawn where a depositary's maximum balance is 
exceeded.



Sec. 203.24  Collateral security requirements.

    Financial institutions that process EFTPS tax payments, but are not 
TT&L depositaries, have no collateral requirements under this part. 
Financial institutions that are note option depositaries or remittance 
option depositaries have collateral security requirements, as follows:
    (a) Note option--(1) FTD deposits and EFTPS tax payments. A 
depositary shall pledge collateral security in accordance with the 
requirements of paragraphs (c)(1), (d), and (e) of this section in an 
amount that is sufficient to cover the pre-established maximum balance 
for the note, and, if applicable, the closing balance in the TT&L 
account which exceeds recognized insurance coverage. Depositaries shall 
pledge collateral for the full amount of the maximum balance at the time 
the maximum balance is established. If the depositary maintains a TT&L 
account, the depositary shall pledge collateral security before 
crediting deposits to the TT&L account.
    (2) Direct investments. A note option depositary that participates 
in direct investment is not required to pledge collateral continuously 
in the amount of the pre-established maximum balance. However, each note 
option depositary participating in direct investment shall pledge, no 
later than the day the direct investment is placed, the additional 
collateral in accordance with paragraphs (c)(1), (d), and (e) of this 
section to cover the total note balance including those funds received 
through direct investment. If a direct investment depositary has a 
history of frequent collateral deficiencies, it shall fully 
collateralize its maximum balance at all times.
    (3) Special direct investments. Before special direct investments 
are credited to a depositary's note balance, the note option depositary 
shall pledge collateral security, in accordance with the requirements of 
paragraphs (c)(2) and (e) of this section, to cover 100 percent of the 
amount of the special direct investments to be received.
    (b) Remittance option. Prior to crediting FTD deposits to the TT&L 
account, a remittance option depositary shall

[[Page 22]]

pledge collateral security in accordance with the requirements of 
paragraph (c)(1), (d), and (e) of this section in an amount which is 
sufficient to cover the balance in the TT&L account at the close of 
business each day, less recognized insurance coverage.
    (c) Deposits of securities. (1) Collateral security required under 
paragraphs (a)(1), (2), and (b) of this section shall be deposited with 
the FRB of the district, or with a custodian or custodians within the 
United States designated by the FRB, under terms and conditions 
prescribed by the FRB.
    (2)(i) Collateral security required under paragraph (a)(3) of this 
section shall be pledged under a written security agreement on a form 
provided by the FRB of the district. The collateral security pledged to 
satisfy the requirements of paragraph (a)(3) of this section may remain 
in the pledging depositary's possession and the fact that it has been 
pledged shall be evidenced by advices of custody to be incorporated by 
reference in the written security agreement. The written security 
agreement and all advices of custody covering collateral security 
pledged under that agreement shall be provided by the depositary to the 
FRB of the district. Collateral security pledged under the agreement 
shall not be substituted for or released without the advance approval of 
the FRB of the district, and any collateral security subject to the 
security agreement shall remain so subject until an approved 
substitution is made. No substitution or release shall be approved until 
an advice of custody containing the description required by the written 
security agreement is received by the FRB of the district.
    (ii) Treasury's security interest in collateral security pledged by 
a depositary in accordance with paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section to 
secure special direct investments is perfected without Treasury taking 
possession of the collateral security for a period not to exceed 21 
calendar days from the day of the depositary's receipt of the special 
direct investment.
    (d) Acceptable securities. Unless otherwise specified by the 
Secretary, collateral security pledged under this section may be 
transferable securities, owned by the depositary free and clear of all 
liens, charges, or claims, of any of the classes listed in the 
procedural instructions. Collateral values will be assigned by the FRB 
of the district.
    (e) Assignment of securities. A TT&L depositary that pledges 
acceptable securities which are not negotiable without its endorsement 
or assignment may furnish, in lieu of placing its unqualified 
endorsement on each security, an appropriate resolution and irrevocable 
power of attorney authorizing the FRB to assign the securities. The 
resolution and power of attorney shall conform to such terms and 
conditions as the FRB shall prescribe.
    (f) Effecting payments of principal and interest on securities 
pledged as collateral--(1) General. If the depositary fails to pay, when 
due, the whole or any part of the funds received by it for credit to the 
TT&L account, and/or if applicable, its note balance; or otherwise 
violates or fails to perform any of the terms of this part, or fails to 
pay when due amounts owed to the United States or the United States 
Treasury; or if the depositary is closed for business by regulatory 
action or by proper corporate action, or in the event that a receiver, 
conservator, liquidator or any other officer is appointed; then the 
Treasury, without notice or demand, may sell, or otherwise collect the 
proceeds of all or part of the collateral, including additions and 
substitutions; and apply the proceeds, to satisfy any claims of the 
United States against the depositary. All principal and interest 
payments on any security pledged to protect the note balance (if 
applicable) and/or the TT&L account (if applicable), due as of the date 
of the insolvency or closure, or thereafter becoming due, shall be held 
separate and apart from any other assets and shall constitute a part of 
the pledged security available to satisfy any claim of the United 
States.
    (2) Payment procedures. (i) Subject to the waiver in paragraph 
(f)(2)(iii) of this section, each depositary (including, with respect to 
such depositary, an assignee for the benefit of creditors, a trustee in 
bankruptcy, or a receiver in equity) shall immediately remit each 
payment of principal and/or interest received by it with respect to 
collateral pledged pursuant to this section to the

[[Page 23]]

FRB of the district, as fiscal agent of the United States, and in any 
event shall so remit no later than 10 days after receipt of such a 
payment.
    (ii) Subject to the waiver in paragraph (f)(2)(iii) of this section, 
each obligor on a security pledged by a depositary pursuant to this 
section, upon notification that the Treasury is entitled to any payment 
associated with that pledged security, shall make each payment of 
principal and/or interest due with respect to such security directly to 
the FRB of the district, as fiscal agent of the United States.
    (iii) The requirements of paragraphs (f)(2)(i) and (ii) of this 
section are hereby waived for only so long as a pledging depositary 
avoids both termination from the program under Sec. 203.7; and also, 
those circumstances identified in paragraph (f)(1) which may lead to the 
collection of the proceeds of collateral or the waiver is otherwise 
terminated by Treasury.

  Subpart A--Negotiation of Intergovernmental Agreements for Financing 
 Federal Assistance Programs--Interest Liabilities on Intergovernmental 
                             Funds Transfers



Sec. 205.4  Scope of subpart.

    (a) Initial programs. From the later of July 1, 1993, or the first 
day of a State's 1994 fiscal year, to the end of a State's 1994 fiscal 
year, this subpart applies, at a minimum, to the following programs, 
provided they meet the threshold for major Federal assistance programs 
in the State:

Alcohol and Drug Abuse and Mental Health Services Block Grant (CFDA 
    93.992);
Chapter 1 Programs--Local Educational Agencies (CFDA 84.010);

    10.557);
State Administration Matching Grants--Food Stamp Program (CFDA 10.561);
Supplemental Security Income (CFDA 93.807);
Unemployment Insurance (CFDA 17.225);

    (b) Threshold of materiality. From the later of July 1, 1994, or the 
beginning of a State's 1995 fiscal year, and thereafter, this subpart 
applies, at a minimum, to all programs that meet the threshold for major 
Federal assistance programs in a State.
    (c) Determining major Federal assistance programs. Unless otherwise 
specified in a Treasury-State Agreement, major Federal assistance 
programs will be determined from the most recent Single Audit data 
available from the U.S. Bureau of the Census and, if necessary, other 
data from the most recent fiscal year for which funding can be 
documented.
    (d) Covering additional programs. A State and the FMS may agree, in 
a Treasury-State Agreement, to cover additional programs under this 
subpart. However, the FMS has unilateral authority to require a State 
and a Federal agency to cover additional programs under this subpart if 
a State or a Federal agency fails to comply with subpart B of this part, 
as set forth in Secs. 205.22 and 205.23.

[[Page 26]]

    (e) Programs not covered by this subpart. Programs in the Catalog of

[57 FR 60676, Dec. 21, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 51855, Oct. 13, 1994]



Sec. 205.5  [Reserved]



Sec. 205.6  Funding techniques.

    (a) Zero balance accounting. Zero balance accounting is a method of 
transferring Federal funds to a State based on the actual amount of 
funds that are paid out by the State each day after a disbursement. 
Neither the Federal Government nor a State will incur an interest 
liability when this funding technique is properly applied.
    (b) Estimated clearance. Estimated clearance is a method of 
transferring Federal funds to a State based on the estimated amount of 
funds that are paid out by the State each day after a disbursement. 
Neither the Federal Government nor a State will incur an interest 
liability when this funding technique is properly applied.
    Example: A State mails $1 million in checks to benefit recipients 
under a Federally funded program. The State has developed the following 
clearance pattern for the program, based on when checks historically 
have been presented for payment:

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                              Percentage
                            Day                               of dollars
                                                               paid out
------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 (checks mailed)..........................................            0
1..........................................................            0
2..........................................................            0
3..........................................................            0
4..........................................................           40
5..........................................................           30
6..........................................................           15
7..........................................................           10
8..........................................................            5
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------


On Day 3, the State requests 40 percent of the funds disbursed, or 
$400,000, and the Federal agency deposits funds in the State account on 
Day 4 to coincide with the expected presentment of 40 percent of the 
total disbursement. On Day 4, the State requests 30 percent of the funds 
to pay for checks presented on Day 5, and so on. Furthermore, if the 
State draws down $400,000 to pay for checks presented on Day 4, neither 
the State nor the Federal Government will incur an interest liability if 
the amount of checks actually presented is more or less than $400,000. 
Over the long term, the amounts drawn down and the amounts of checks 
presented for payment will converge to the historical clearance pattern.
    (c) Pre-issuance funding. Pre-issuance funding is a method of 
transferring Federal funds to a State prior to the day the State issues 
checks or initiates EFT payments. When this funding technique is 
applied, a State will incur an interest liability to the Federal 
Government from the day Federal funds are credited to a State account to 
the day the State pays out the funds for programs purposes.

    Example: Three business days before a State issues $1 million in 
checks, it requests $1 million from a Federal agency, which deposits the 
funds in a State account the next day. The State has developed the 
following clearance pattern, based on when the State's checks 
historically have been presented for payment:

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                              Percent of
                            Day                                dollars
                                                               paid out
------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 (funds deposited)........................................            0
1..........................................................            0
2 (checks issued)..........................................            0
3..........................................................            0
4..........................................................            0
5..........................................................           40
6..........................................................           30
7..........................................................           15
8..........................................................           10
9..........................................................            5
------------------------------------------------------------------------


The State will owe the Federal Government 5 days of interest on 40 
percent of the funds, or $400,000, since that amount will be paid out 
for checks presented 5 days after Federal funds are deposited in a State 
account. The State will owe 6 days of interest on 30 percent of the 
funds, or $300,000, 7 days of interest on 15 percent of the funds, and 
so on.
    (d) Average clearance. Average clearance is a method of transferring 
funds to a State based on the dollar-weighted average number of days 
required for funds to be paid out by the State after a disbursement. 
Neither the Federal Government nor a State will incur an interest 
liability when this funding technique is properly applied.


[[Page 27]]


    Example: A State mails $1 million in checks to contractors for a 
Federally funded program. The State has developed the following 
clearance pattern, based on when checks historically have been presented 
for payment, and has determined the average day of clearance, weighted 
by dollar amount, to be 5 days after checks are issued:

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                    Percent
                                                      of     Factor (day
                       Day                          dollars       x
                                                   paid out  percentage)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 (checks issued)................................         0
1................................................         0
2................................................         0
3................................................         0
4................................................        40        1.60
5................................................        30        1.50
6................................................        15        0.90
7................................................        10        0.70
8................................................         5        0.40
Average day of clearance.........................  ........        5.10
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------


The State requests $1 million on day 4 and receives that amount on day 
5, which is the dollar-weighted average number of days required for 
checks to be presented at the State's bank, and neither the State nor 
the Federal Government incurs an interest liability.
    (1) In determining a dollar-weighted average day of clearance, 
fractions of days are rounded to the nearest whole number.
    (2) The standards and maintenance requirements for clearance 
patterns, as set forth in Sec. 205.8, apply for average day of clearance 
calculations.
    (e) Reimbursable funding. Reimbursable funding is a method of 
transferring Federal funds to a State after the State has paid out its 
own funds for program purposes. After June 30, 1994, reimbursable 
funding is prohibited, except where mandated by Federal law.



Sec. 205.7  Requesting and transferring funds.

    (a) Electronic funds transfer. To the maximum extent practicable, a 
Federal agency shall use EFT for transfers of funds to a State.
    (b) Minimizing the time between transfer and payment. A State and a 
Federal agency shall minimize the time elapsing between the transfer of 
funds from the United States Treasury and the pay out of funds for 
program purposes by a State, whether the transfer occurs before or after 
the pay out.
    (c) Procedures for funding techniques. Unless otherwise specified in 
a Treasury-State Agreement, a State and a Federal agency shall adhere to 
the following procedures for each funding technique:
    (1) Zero balance accounting. A State shall request funds the same 
day it pays out funds for program purposes, and a Federal agency shall 
deposit funds in a State account the same day it receives a request for 
funds.
    (2) Estimated clearance. A State shall request funds 1 business day 
prior to the day it expects to pay out funds, in accordance with a 
clearance pattern, and a Federal agency shall deposit funds in a State 
account the next business day after receiving a request for funds.
    (3) Average clearance. A State shall request funds 1 business day 
prior to the dollar-weighted average number of days required for funds 
to be paid out after a disbursement, and a Federal agency shall deposit 
funds in a State account the next business day after receiving a request 
for funds.
    (4) Pre-issuance funding. A State shall request funds not more than 
3 business days prior to the day on which it makes a disbursement, and a 
Federal agency shall deposit funds in a State account the next business 
day after receiving a request for funds.
    (5) Reimbursable funding. A State shall request funds only after it 
has paid out its own funds for programs purposes, and a Federal agency 
shall deposit funds in a State account the next business day after 
receiving a request for funds.
    (d) Limiting the amount transferred. Consistent with a funding 
technique and with funds transfer procedures in a Treasury-State 
Agreement, a State and a Federal agency shall limit the amount of funds 
transferred to a State to the minimum required to meet a State's actual, 
immediate cash needs.
    (e) Frequency of requests for funds. A Federal agency shall allow a 
State to submit requests for funds, or bills, as often as daily. 
However, this requirement shall not be construed to change Federal 
agency guidelines defining a properly completed request for funds.
    (f) Prohibition of reimbursable funding requirements. A Federal 
agency may not require a State to use reimbursable funding, unless 
mandated by Federal law.

[[Page 28]]



Sec. 205.8  Clearance patterns.

    (a) Use and basis of development. When required by a funding 
technique, a clearance pattern will be used to schedule the transfer of 
funds to a State and to support the calculation of interest. A State 
may:
    (1) Develop a separate clearance pattern for an individual program; 
or
    (2) Develop a composite clearance pattern for a logical group of 
programs that have the same disbursement method and that reasonably can 
be expected to have comparable clearance activity. A composite clearance 
pattern for a group of programs must be applied separately to each 
program in the group when scheduling funds transfers or calculating 
interest; or
    (3) Develop a clearance pattern on another basis that is agreed upon 
by the FMS.
    (b) Standards for clearance patterns. A State shall ensure that a 
clearance pattern accurately represents the flow of Federal funds and 
that a clearance pattern reflects seasonal or other periodic variations 
in clearance activity. A State shall ensure that a clearance pattern is 
auditable.
    (c) Maintaining clearance patterns. (1) If a State has actual or 
constructive knowledge, at any time, that a clearance pattern does not 
correspond to a program's clearance activity, or if a program undergoes 
operational changes that may affect clearance activity, the State shall:
    (i) Immediately notify the FMS in writing of the program requiring a 
new clearance pattern, and
    (ii) Develop a new clearance pattern and certify that it corresponds 
to a program's clearance activity.
    (2) If a Federal agency has actual or constructive knowledge, at any 
time, that a State's clearance pattern does not correspond to a 
program's clearance activity, the agency shall notify the FMS in writing 
of the State and the program. The FMS shall immediately notify the State 
of the programs, and the State shall either:
    (i) Develop a new clearance pattern and certify that it corresponds 
to a program's clearance activity, or
    (ii) Re-certify the accuracy of the existing clearance pattern.
    (d) Certification for accuracy. An authorized State official shall 
certify that a clearance pattern corresponds to a program's clearance 
activity. If a State develops a clearance pattern for a program or a 
group of programs, as set forth in paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) of this 
section, an authorized State official shall re-certify the accuracy of 
the clearance pattern at least every 5 years. If a State develops a 
clearance pattern on another basis, as set forth in paragraph (a)(3) of 
this section, the FMS may prescribe requirements for re-certifying the 
accuracy of the clearance pattern.



Sec. 205.9  Treasury-State agreements.

    (a) Purpose. A State may enter into a Treasury-State Agreement with 
the FMS to set forth terms and conditions for implementing this subpart.
    (b) Components. A Treasury-State Agreement pursuant to this subpart 
must include, but will not be limited to, the following:
    (1) Programs. Consistent with Sec. 205.4, a Treasury-State Agreement 
must indicate the programs subject to this subpart.
    (2) Funding techniques. A Treasury-State Agreement must indicate the 
funding techniques to be applied to the programs subject to this 
subpart, in accordance with the following:
    (i) Zero Balance Accounting, Estimated Clearance, and Pre-Issuance 
Funding are techniques available for selection by a State, subject to 
the approval of the FMS.
    (ii) A State may request approval to use the Average Clearance 
funding technique, but must provide the FMS with adequate justification 
for its use in lieu of Estimated Clearance.
    (iii) Reimbursable funding is available for selection by a State, 
subject to the approval of the FMS, only for a program for which the 
State used reimbursable funding prior to the later of July 1, 1993, or 
the first day of a State's 1994 fiscal year. However, reimbursable 
funding is not available for selection by a State for the programs 
listed in Sec. 205.4(a).
    (iv) A State and the FMS may negotiate the use of other mutually 
agreed upon funds transfer procedures.

[[Page 29]]

    (v) A State may apply more than one funding technique or funds 
transfer procedure to a program with multiple cash flows.
    (3) Interest calculation method. Consistent with Sec. 205.13, a 
Treasury-State Agreement must indicate the method a State will use to 
calculate and document interest liabilities pursuant to this subpart.
    (4) Clearance pattern method. Consistent with Sec. 205.8, a 
Treasury-State Agreement must indicate the method and standards a State 
will use to develop and maintain clearance patterns pursuant to this 
subpart.
    (5) Direct costs. Consistent with Sec. 205.14, a Treasury-State 
Agreement must specify the types of direct costs a State expects to 
incur.
    (6) Reverse flow programs. Consistent with Secs. 205.8 and 205.13, 
with respect to programs for which the Federal Government makes payments 
on behalf of a State, a Treasury-State Agreement must indicate the 
methods a Federal agency will use to calculate and document interest 
liabilities and to develop and maintain clearance patterns pursuant to 
this subpart.
    (c) Consultation with Federal agencies. The FMS will consult with 
Federal program agencies as necessary and appropriate when negotiating a 
Treasury-State Agreement.
    (d) Amendment. A Treasury-State Agreement may be amended by the 
mutual written consent of the State and the FMS.
    (e) Five-year expiration. A Treasury-State Agreement expires if it 
is not amended for 5 years.
    (f) Default provisions for a State without a Treasury-State 
Agreement. With respect to a State that does not have a Treasury-State 
Agreement in effect after the later of June 30, 1993, or the last day of 
the State's 1993 fiscal year, the following apply:
    (1) The FMS shall prescribe funds transfer procedures to be used by 
the State and the Federal agency in implementing this subpart, 
consistent with Federal and State law.
    (2) The FMS shall prescribe the method for calculating interest 
liabilities pursuant to this subpart.



Sec. 205.10  Funding of indirect costs and administrative cost grants.

    (a) A State and the FMS may agree, in a Treasury-State Agreement, to 
the following funding conventions for indirect costs and administrative 
cost grants:
    (1) The State will draw down a prorated amount of an administrative 
cost grant on the date of the State payday. For example, the State would 
draw one-third of a quarterly administrative cost grant if payroll is 
monthly, or one-sixth of a quarterly administrative cost grant if 
payroll is semi-monthly.
    (2) If an indirect cost rate is applied to a program, the State will 
include a proportionate share of the indirect cost allowance in each 
drawdown by applying the indirect cost rate to the appropriate direct 
costs of each drawdown.
    (3) If costs must be allocated to various programs pursuant to a 
labor distribution or other system under an approved cost allocation 
plan, the State will draw down funds to meet cash outlay requirements 
based on the most recent, certified cost allocations, with subsequent 
adjustments pursuant to the actual allocation of costs.
    (b) A State and the FMS may agree, in a Treasury-State Agreement, 
that no interest liabilities will be incurred or calculated for indirect 
costs and administrative cost grants, notwithstanding any other 
provision of this subpart.



Sec. 205.11  Federal interest liabilities.

    (a) General. The Federal Government will incur an interest liability 
to a State if the State pays out its own funds for program purposes with 
valid obligational authority under Federal law, Federal regulation, or 
Federal-State agreement. A Federal interest liability will accrue from 
the day a State pays out its own funds for program purposes to the day 
Federal funds are credited to a State account.
    (b) Late appropriations. If a State pays out its own funds for 
program purposes due to delay in passage of a Federal appropriations 
act, the Federal Government will incur an interest liability if an 
appropriations act, as enacted, covers the period of the State's 
expenditure and permits payment for expenses already incurred by the 
State.

[[Page 30]]

    (c) Lack of obligational authority other than occurring through late 
appropriations. If a State pays out its own funds for program purposes 
without obligational authority, the Federal Government will incur an 
interest liability if the lack of obligational authority is not the 
result of limitation, reduction, or termination of the program and where 
obligational authority is subsequently established to permit payment for 
the State's expenditure.
    (d) Federal Highway Trust Fund. The following applies to programs 
and projects funded out of the Federal Highway Trust Fund, 
notwithstanding any other provision of this section:
    (1) If a State does not request funds at least weekly for current 
project costs, a Federal interest liability will not accrue prior to the 
day a State submits a request for funds.
    (2) If a State pays out its own funds in the absence of a project 
agreement or in excess of the Federal obligation in a project agreement, 
the Federal Government will not incur an interest liability.
    (e) Discretionary grant project approval. If a State pays out its 
own funds prior to the earlier of:
    (1) The day a Federal agency officially notifies the State in 
writing that a discretionary grant project has been approved, or
    (2) The date that a Federal agency is otherwise obligated in law to 
pay the discretionary grant project to the State, the Federal Government 
will not incur an interest liability, notwithstanding any other 
provision of this section.
    (f) Authorizations and appropriations for future years. If a State 
pays out its own funds prior to the availability of Federal funds that 
have been authorized or appropriated for a future Federal fiscal year, 
the Federal Government will not incur an interest liability, 
notwithstanding any other provision of this section.
    (g) Reverse flow programs. With respect to programs for which the 
Federal Government makes payments on behalf of a State, such as 
Supplemental Security Income, the Federal Government will incur an 
interest liability if State funds are in a Federal Government account 
prior to the day a Federal agency pays out funds for program purposes. A 
Federal interest liability will accrue from the day State funds are 
credited to the Federal Government's account to the day the Federal 
agency pays out the State funds for program purposes.



Sec. 205.12  State interest liabilities.

    (a) General. A State will incur an interest liability to the Federal 
Government if Federal funds are in a State account prior to the day the 
State pays out funds for program purposes. A State interest liability 
will accrue from the day Federal funds are credited to a State account 
to the day the State pays out the Federal funds for program purposes.
    (b) Refunds. A State will incur an interest liability to the Federal 
Government on a refund transaction of Federal funds. A State interest 
liability will accrue from the day the refund is credited to a State 
account to the day the refund is either paid out for program purposes or 
credited to a Federal Government account. However, a State may adopt a 
transaction threshold not exceeding $10,000, below which the State will 
not incur an interest liability on a refund transaction.
    (c) Reverse flow programs. With respect to programs for which the 
Federal Government makes payments on behalf of a State, such as 
Supplemental Security Income, a State will incur an interest liability 
to the Federal Government if a Federal agency pays out Federal funds for 
program purposes on behalf of the State. A State interest liability will 
accrue from the day the Federal agency pays out Federal funds for 
program purposes to the day State funds are credited to the Federal 
Government's account.
    (d) Exception. Notwithstanding any other provision in this section, 
a State will not incur an interest liability to the Federal Government 
if Federal law requires that the interest a State earns on Federal funds 
must be retained by the State or used for program purposes. This 
exception shall not be construed to exempt a program from any other 
provision of this subpart.

[[Page 31]]



Sec. 205.13  Interest calculation.

    (a) State responsibilities. A State shall calculate Federal interest 
liabilities and State interest liabilities for each program subject to 
this subpart, except as provided for in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Reverse flow programs. A Federal agency shall calculate Federal 
interest liabilities and State interest liabilities for a program 
subject to this subpart for which the Federal agency makes payments on 
behalf of a State, such as Supplemental Security Income.
    (c) Start date. Interest liabilities begin accruing the later of 
July 1, 1993, or the first day of a State's 1994 fiscal year.
    (d) Interest rate. The interest rate for all interest liabilities 
pursuant to this subpart is the annualized rate equal to the average 
equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury Bills auctioned during a State's 
fiscal year, except as provided for in paragraph (i) of this section. 
The FMS will provide this rate to each State.
    (e) Interest calculation method and standards. A State shall 
calculate and report interest liabilities on the basis of its fiscal 
year. A State shall ensure that its interest calculations are auditable. 
As set forth in Sec. 205.9, a Treasury-State Agreement must include the 
method a State will use to calculate and document interest liabilities 
pursuant to this subpart.
    (f) Statistical sampling. If a State uses statistical sampling to 
calculate interest, the State must randomly sample transactions for each 
program subject to this subpart to ensure, at a minimum, a 95 percent 
confidence interval subject to a .3 dollar-weighted day bound of error 
estimate.
    (g) Transactions prior to a State's 1994 fiscal year. A State shall 
not include in an interest calculation a transaction in which either the 
transfer of funds to the State or the pay out of funds for program 
purposes by the State occurs prior to the later of July 1, 1993, or the 
first day of the State's 1994 fiscal year.
    (h) Funds withdrawn from a State account in the Unemployment Trust 
Fund (UTF). A State shall account for the actual interest earnings and 
the related banking costs attributable to funds withdrawn from the 
State's account in the UTF.
    (1) If funds withdrawn from the several accounts in the UTF are 
commingled in the State's Unemployment Insurance benefit payment 
account, the funds withdrawn from the State's account must be allocated 
a pro rata share of the actual interest earnings and related banking 
costs of the benefit payment account. Funds withdrawn from the State's 
account in the UTF that are included in investment pools must be 
allocated a pro rata share of interest earnings of the investment pool.
    (2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subpart, a State's 
interest liability on funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF 
consists of the actual interest earnings less the related banking costs 
of such funds, and shall be deposited in the State's account in the UTF.
    (3) This paragraph (h) does not apply to funds withdrawn from the 
Federal Employees Compensation Account and the Extended Unemployment 
Compensation Account in the UTF.



Sec. 205.14  Direct costs of implementation.

    (a) Definition. Direct costs of implementing this subpart are those 
costs necessary for the development and maintenance of clearance 
patterns and those costs necessary to perform the actual calculation of 
interest liabilities. Direct costs do not include expenses incurred for 
upgrading or modernizing of accounting systems.
    (b) Reimbursement of direct costs. A State will be compensated 
annually for the direct costs of implementing this subpart, subject to 
the following conditions and limitations.
    (1) Treasury-State Agreement. A State must have a Treasury-State 
Agreement with the FMS, as set forth in Sec. 205.9.

with its Annual Report, as set forth in Sec. 205.15(c).
    (3) Documentation. A State must maintain documentation to 
substantiate its claim for direct costs.
    (4) Eligibility of costs. Direct costs in excess of $50,000 in any 
year are not eligible for reimbursement, unless a State

[[Page 32]]

can justify to the FMS that it would be unable to develop clearance 
patterns or perform the actual calculation of interest without incurring 
such costs.
    (5) Costs incurred in prior years. Direct costs incurred prior to a 
State's most recently completed fiscal year are not eligible for 
reimbursement, excepting costs incurred prior to the first day of a 
State's 1994 fiscal year and claimed for reimbursement with the State's 
first Annual Report submitted pursuant to this subpart.
    (6) Costs incurred prior to July 22, 1991. Direct costs incurred 
prior to July 22, 1991, are not eligible for reimbursement, unless a 
State makes separate application for such costs, with adequate 
justification and documentation.
    (7) Review by the FMS. The FMS will review all direct cost claims 
for reasonableness. Unreasonable cost claims, as determined by the FMS, 
will not be reimbursed, notwithstanding any other provision of this 
section.
    (8) Method of reimbursement. The FMS will effect direct cost 
reimbursement by reducing the State interest liability and adjusting the 
Federal interest liability for each State, to the extent allowed by the 
following limitations:
    (i) Interest liabilities for programs funded out of trust funds for 
which the Secretary is trustee may not be reduced or adjusted; and
    (ii) The aggregate Federal interest liability for all States may not 
increase.
    (c) Application of cost principles. A State shall not include direct 
costs of implementing this subpart, as defined in paragraph (a) of this 
section, in the development of its Statewide cost allocation plan, as 
provided for in OMB Circular A-87. All other costs incurred by a State 
to implement this subpart are subject to the procedures and principles 
of OMB Circular A-87.
    (d) Sunset review. By July 1, 1996, the FMS will review the policies 
in this section to determine their effectiveness.



Sec. 205.15  Annual reports.

    (a) A State shall submit an Annual Report to the FMS by December 31 
accounting for the interest liabilities of the State's most recently

the accuracy of a State's direct cost claim.
    (d) An authorized State official shall certify the accuracy of a 
State's Annual Report.
    (e) Reverse flow programs. With respect to a program for which the 
Federal Government makes payments on behalf of a State, a Federal agency 
shall provide an interest report to a State by December 1 for the 
State's most recently completed fiscal year. The interest report will 
include the State interest liability and the Federal interest liability 
for the program, including the Federal interest liability on refund 
transactions of $10,000 or more. The Federal agency shall certify the 
accuracy of the interest report. A State shall incorporate the interest 
report in its Annual Report.
    (f) The FMS will distribute Annual Reports to Federal agencies.



Sec. 205.16  Interest payment.

total interest liability to a State to effect direct cost reimbursement, 
as set forth in Sec. 205.14(b)(8).
    (b) Net interest payment. The adjusted total State interest 
liability and the adjusted total Federal interest liability for each 
State will be offset to determine the net interest payable to or from a 
State. The payment of net interest to or from a State for its most 
recently completed fiscal year will occur no later than March 1.
    (c) Disputed amounts. If the amount of interest payable is disputed 
according to the provisions of Sec. 205.18, payment must occur for any 
undisputed portions. The interest in dispute must be paid within 14 days 
of receipt of the decision by the Assistant Commissioner, Federal 
Finance, as set forth in Sec. 205.18.



Sec. 205.17  Compliance and oversight.

    (a) State coordinator. A State shall designate an official

interest calculations, clearance patterns, direct costs, and other 
functions directly pertinent to the implementation and administration of 
this subpart.
    (d) Record retention. A State shall retain the records related to

date the State submits its Annual Report, or until any dispute or action 
involving the records and documents is completed, whichever is later.
    (e) Availability of records. The FMS, the Comptroller General, and a 
Federal agency shall have the right of access to all records for the 
purpose of verifying interest calculations, clearance patterns, direct 
cost claims, and the State's accounting for Federal funds.
    (f) Records for reverse flow programs. With respect to programs for 
which the Federal Government makes payment on behalf of a State, a 
Federal agency shall maintain records supporting interest calculations 
and clearance patterns. A Federal agency shall retain such records for 3 
years from the date the Federal agency submits its interest calculations 
to a State, as set forth in Sec. 205.15(e), or until any dispute or 
action involving the records is completed, whichever is later. The FMS, 
the Comptroller General, and a State shall have the right of access to 
all records for the purpose of verifying interest calculations, 
clearance patterns, and the Federal agency's accounting for State funds.

FMS, a Federal agency shall review a State's Annual Report for accuracy 
and reasonableness and shall report its findings to the FMS.
    (j) Federal agency noncompliance. If a Federal agency egregiously or 
repeatedly causes Federal interest liabilities or fails to comply with 
this subpart, the FMS may collect a charge from the Federal agency in an 
amount the FMS determines to be the cost to the general fund of the 
Treasury caused by such noncompliance, in accordance with the following:
    (1) The FMS will issue a Notice of Assessment to the Federal agency, 
indicating the nature of the noncompliance, the amount of the charge, 
the manner in which it was calculated, and the right to file an appeal.
    (2) A charge for noncompliance, to the maximum extent practicable, 
will be paid out of appropriations available for the Federal agency's 
operations and

[[Page 34]]

will not be paid from amounts available for funding the programs of the 
Federal agency.
    (3) If a Federal agency does not pay a charge for noncompliance 
within 45 days after receiving a Notice of Assessment, the FMS will 
debit the appropriate Federal agency account.
    (4) A Federal interest liability resulting from circumstances beyond 
the control of a Federal agency does not constitute noncompliance.
    (k) State noncompliance. If a State materially fails to comply with 
this subpart, the FMS may take one or more of the following actions, as 
appropriate in the circumstances:
    (1) Request a Federal agency or the General Accounting Office to 
conduct an audit of the State to determine interest owed to the Federal 
Government, and implement procedures to recover such interest; or
    (2) Deny the reimbursement of all or a part of the State's direct 
cost claim; or

its funding techniques, as set forth in Sec. 205.7 or in a Treasury-
State Agreement, the FMS may deny the State payment or credit for any 
resultant Federal interest liability, notwithstanding any other 
provision of this part.



Sec. 205.18  Appeals and dispute resolution.

    (a) Appeal by a Federal agency. A Federal agency may appeal any 
charge assessed by the FMS for noncompliance by submitting an appeal in 
writing to the Assistant Commissioner, Federal Finance (hereinafter 
Assistant Commissioner), of the FMS, within 45 days of the date of the 
Notice of Assessment. The appeal shall include a concise factual 
statement of the conditions leading to the Notice of Assessment, the 
basis of the appeal, and the action requested by the agency. In the 
event of an appeal, the charge imposed under the Notice of Assessment 
will be deferred pending the results of the appeal.
    (1) Appeal review process. The Assistant Commissioner will review 
the Notice of Assessment, any documentation supporting the Notice, and 
the written appeal from the agency. If based on this review, the 
Assistant Commissioner finds that additional information is required, 
the Assistant Commissioner may request to meet with the agency, as well 
as other parties selected by the Assistant Commissioner, as part of the 
review process.
    (2) Decision. The Assistant Commissioner will issue a written 
decision within 30 days of receipt of the appeal. The Assistant 
Commissioner may unilaterally extend this period for an additional 30 
days if required. The decision of the Assistant Commissioner whether to 
uphold the Notice of Assessment, to overturn the Notice, or to mandate 
some other action will be stated in the written decision. Other actions 
mandated may include a reduced charge, a deferral of the charge, an 
alternate solution to cash management improvement, or any combination 
thereof. The basis of the decision, the amount of the charge and the 
effective date of the charge will be stated in the written decision. The 
effective date of the charge may be retroactive to the date indicated in 
the Notice of Assessment.
    (b) Resolution of disputes. If a dispute arises from the 
implementation or administration of this subpart, the following 
resolution mechanism is available:
    (1) The aggrieved party may submit a written appeal to the Assistant 
Commissioner. The aggrieved party shall concurrently serve a copy of the 
written appeal to the other concerned parties.
    (2) Within 30 days of the submission of the written appeal, the 
aggrieved party shall submit to the Assistant Commissioner a written 
statement not exceeding 15 pages, with supporting documentation in 
appendices, that articulates the dispute, the aggrieved party's 
position, and the relief sought. The aggrieved party shall concurrently 
serve its statement upon the other concerned parties.
    (3) Within 30 days of receipt of the aggrieved party's statement, 
the responding party may submit a response statement not exceeding 15 
pages, with

[[Page 35]]

supporting documentation in appendices, to the Assistant Commissioner. 
The responding party shall concurrently serve its response statement to 
the other concerned parties.
    (4) The Assistant Commissioner will issue a written decision within 
30 days after the period for the submission of the response statement. 
The Assistant Commissioner may unilaterally extend the deadline for 
issuing a decision by 30 days if required. The Assistant Commissioner's 
decision shall be the final agency action on the part of the FMS for the 
purposes of judicial review procedures under the Administrative 
Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. 701-706, unless either party invokes the 
provisions of the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act of 1990, 5 
U.S.C. 581-593 (ADRA), in accordance with the following.
    (i) Either party may seek to invoke the assistance of a neutral 
party appointed under the provisions of the ADRA within 30 days of 
receipt of the Assistant Commissioner written decision. The party 
invoking the ADRA shall notify both the Assistant Commissioner and the 
responding party in writing. With the written mutual consent of the 
parties and the Assistant Commissioner, a neutral party appointed under 
the provisions of the ADRA may assist in resolving the dispute through 
the use of alternate means of dispute resolution as defined in the ADRA.
    (ii) If the party invoking the ADRA is unable to reach a 
satisfactory resolution of the problem using the ADRA, the Assistant 
Commissioner's decision shall be the final agency action on the part of 
the FMS for purposes of the judicial review procedures under the 
Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 701-706.

the final authority as granted under the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 
to specify use of a particular method or mechanism of collection and 
deposit and to recover costs that result from noncompliance. Authority 
is also granted to the Service, under the Cash Management Improvement 
Act of 1990, as amended by the Cash Management Improvement Act 
Amendments of 1992, to provide for the timely disbursement of funds. An 
agency will require the collection or disbursement of funds by the 
agency via EFT as a provision of new contractual agreements or renewal 
of existing contracts that impact agency collection or payment 
mechanisms.



Sec. 206.2  Definitions.

    For the purpose of this part, the following definitions apply:
    Agency means any department, instrumentality, office, commission, 
board, service, Government corporation, or other establishment in the 
executive branch, except the Tennessee Valley Authority.
    Billing means any of a variety of means by which the Government 
places a demand for payment against an entity that is indebted to the 
Government. The term encompasses invoices, notices, initial demand 
letters, and other forms of notification.

[[Page 37]]

    Cash management means practices and techniques designed to 
accelerate and control collections, ensure prompt deposit of receipts, 
improve control over disbursement methods, and eliminate idle cash 
balances. ``Cash Management Review Process'' means periodic examinations 
of collection and disbursement cash flows to ensure that the most 
effective mechanisms are used to process the funds.
    Collection means the transfer of monies from a source outside the 
Federal Government to an agency or to a financial institution acting as 
an agent of the Government.
    Collection mechanism means any one of a number of tools or systems 
by which monies are transferred to the Government from a source outside 
the Government.
    Cutoff time means a time predesignated by a financial institution 
beyond which transactions presented or actions requested will be 
considered the next banking day's business.
    Day means a calendar day unless otherwise specified.
    Deposit means as a noun, money that is being or has been presented 
for credit to the Treasury. Deposits can be made by an agency or 
directly by the remitter. All such transfers are effected through a 
Federal Reserve Bank or other financial institution. As a verb, deposit 
means the act of presenting monies for credit to the Treasury by an 
official of an agency.
    Depositary means a bank or other financial institution that has been 
authorized by the Treasury to receive monies for credit to the Treasury.
    Disburse means the initiation of an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) 
transaction or other methods of drawing funds from accounts maintained 
by the Government.
    Electronic funds transfer (EFT) means any transfer of funds, other 
than a transaction originated by cash, check or similar paper 
instrument, that is initiated through an electronic terminal, telephone, 
computer, or magnetic tape, for the purpose of ordering, instructing, or 
authorizing a financial institution to debit or credit an account. The 
term includes, but is not limited to, Fed Wire transfers, Automated 
Clearing House (ACH) transfers, transfers made at automatic teller 
machines (ATM) and Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals (to include use of the 
Government small purchase card), and other means of credit card 
transactions.
    Fund means the Cash Management Improvements Fund.
    Monies (or ``receipts'') means EFT transactions, currency, 
negotiable instruments, and/or demand deposits owed to or collected by 
an agency.
    Next-day deposit means a deposit made before the cutoff time on the 
day following the day on which the funds were received by an agency. For 
example, if an agency receives funds for deposit at 3 p.m. on Monday and 
transmits the deposits to the depositary by 2 p.m. on Tuesday (the 
depositary's next cutoff time), then next-day deposit requirements are 
met.
    Payment means a sum of money transferred to a recipient in 
satisfaction of an obligation. A payment includes any Federal Government 
benefit or nonbenefit payment.
    (1) A benefit payment is a disbursement for a Federal Government 
entitlement program or annuity. Benefit payments may be one-time or 
recurring payments including, but not limited to, payments for Social 
Security, Supplemental Security Income, Black Lung, Civil Service 
Retirement, Railroad Retirement Board Retirement/Annuity, Department of 
Veterans Affairs Compensation/Pension, Central Intelligence Agency 
Annuity, Military Retirement Annuity, Coast Guard Retirement, and

Revenue Service tax refunds, Federal salaries and allotments therefrom, 
grants, travel disbursements and reimbursements, loans, principal and/or 
interest related to U.S. savings bonds, notes, and other savings-type 
securities, and payments of service fees to organizations qualified to 
issue and/or redeem savings bonds.
    Point-of-sale (POS) terminal means an automated credit card or debit 
card transaction device.

[[Page 38]]

    Presumed EFT means that agencies will presume that new payment 
recipients will elect EFT as the means of payment delivery. Enrollment 
forms for use in establishing routine payments will be designed with 
this approach in mind, to obtain the required written consent of the 
recipient.
    Recipient means a person, corporation, or other public or private 
entity receiving benefit or nonbenefit payments from the Government.
    Same-day deposit means a deposit made before the cutoff time on the 
day on which the funds were received by an agency. For example, if an 
agency receives funds for deposit at 10 a.m. on Monday and transmits the 
deposits by 2 p.m. on Monday (the depositary's cutoff time), then a 
same-day deposit has been achieved.
    Service means the Financial Management Service, Department of the 
Treasury.
    Treasury Financial Manual (TFM) means the manual issued by the 
Service containing procedures to be observed by all Government 
departments and agencies in relation to central accounting, financial 
reporting, and other Governmentwide fiscal responsibilities of the 
Department of the Treasury. Volume I, Chapter 6-8000 (I TFM 6-8000) 
contains agency cash management procedures to be followed pertaining to 
these regulations.

Copies of the TFM are available free to Government agencies. Others who 
are interested in ordering a copy may call (202) 208-1819 or write the 
Directives Management Branch, Financial Management Service, Department 
of the Treasury, Liberty Center (UCP-741), Washington, DC 20227 for 
further information.



Sec. 206.3  Billing policy and procedures.

    The billing process is considered an integral part of an effective 
cash management collection program. In those situations where bills are 
required and the failure to bill would affect the cash flow, bills will 
be prepared and transmitted within 5 business days after goods have been 
shipped or released, services have been rendered, or payment is 
otherwise due. An agency may prepare and transmit bills later than the 
5-day timeframe if it can demonstrate that it is cost-effective to do 
so. In addition, the bill must include the terms and dates of payments, 
and late payment provisions, if applicable. Terms and dates of payments 
will be consistent with industry practices. I TFM 6-8000 describes 
detailed billing policies, procedures, and industry standards for 
agencies.



Sec. 206.4  Collection and payment mechanisms.

    (a) All funds are to be collected and disbursed by EFT when cost-
effective, practicable, and consistent with current statutory authority.
    (b) Collections and payments will be made by EFT when cost- 
effective, practicable, and consistent with current statutory authority. 
When consistent with these criteria, specific cash flows will utilize 
EFT as follows:
    (1) Fees/fines. EFT will be adopted as the presumed method of 
collecting fees and fines, especially when these collection cash flows 
are recurring or of large dollar amounts.
    (2) Tax collections. EFT will be adopted as the primary method for 
collecting taxes. EFT mechanisms may include ACH credit or debit cards.
    (3) Salary payment. Presumed EFT will be adopted as the method for 
paying employees, and entrance enrollment forms for establishing regular 
payments will be designed to use this approach.
    (4) Vendor and miscellaneous payments. Each department and agency 
will exercise its authority under the Federal Acquisition Regulation to 
require that all contractors are paid by EFT, unless a determination is 
made that it is not in the best interest of the Federal Government to do 
so. EFT will be adopted as the standard method of payment for all 
Federal program payments originated by agencies or their agents.
    (5) Benefit payments. EFT will be presented to new beneficiaries as 
the presumed method for receiving benefits. EFT payment methods, such as 
Electronic Benefit Transfer, will be adopted and implemented to make EFT 
accessible to all benefit recipients.
    (c)(1) Selection of the best collection and payment mechanism is a 
joint responsibility of an agency and the Service. An agency has 
responsibility for

[[Page 39]]

conducting cash management reviews; gathering volume and dollar data 
relative to the operation of the systems; and funding any implementation 
and operational costs above those normally funded by Treasury. The 
Service is the required approval authority when an agency desires to 
convert from one collection mechanism to another. The Service's written 
approval is required prior to an agency entering into new contractual 
agreements or renewing existing contracts for agency collections or 
payments systems. Agencies will follow guidelines for the cost-effective 
usage of collection and payment mechanisms, published in the TFM, Volume 
I, Part 6-8000, in their selection and recommendation to the Service of 
an appropriate funds transfer mechanism. The agency will provide the 
Service with a recommended mechanism for any new or modified cash flows. 
The Service will review the recommendations, approve a mechanism, and 
assist with implementation.
    (2) If an agency proposes a collection or payment mechanism other 
than EFT, it may be required to provide a cost-benefit analysis to 
justify its use. Cost/benefit analyses must include, at a minimum, known 
or estimated agency personnel costs, costs of procurement, recurring 
operational costs, equipment and system implementation and maintenance 
costs, costs to payment recipients, and costs to remitters. Agencies 
should consult with Treasury to determine the need to include interest 
costs associated with float in their computations of benefits and costs.
    (d) An agency will require the collection of funds by the agency to 
be made via EFT and the disbursement of funds by the agency to be made 
via EFT as a provision of new contractual agreements or renewal of 
existing contracts that impact agency collection or payment mechanisms, 
when cost-effective, practicable, and consistent with current statutory 
authority.



Sec. 206.5  Collection and deposit procedure exceptions.

    (a) The following collection and deposit timeframe requirements are 
to be followed in exception cases where EFT mechanisms are not utilized:
    (1) An agency will achieve same-day deposit of monies. Where same 
day deposit is not cost-effective or is impracticable, next day deposit 
of monies must be achieved except in those cases covered by I TFM 6-
8000.
    (2) Deposits will be made at a time of the day prior to the 
depositary's specified cutoff time, but as late as possible in order to 
maximize daily deposit amounts.
    (3) When cost-beneficial to the Government, an agency may make 
multiple deposits.
    (b) Any additional exceptions to the above policies are listed in I 
TFM 6-8000.



Sec. 206.6  Cash management planning and review.

    (a) An agency shall periodically perform cash management reviews to 
identify areas needing improvement.
    (b) As part of its cash management review process, an agency is 
expected to document cash flows in order to provide an overview of its 
cash management activities and to identify areas that will yield savings 
after cash management initiatives are implemented. The Service will 
evaluate an agency's EFT policy and application, to include mitigating 
circumstances that may prevent the use of EFT, as part of the cash 
management reviews.
    (c) An agency's cash management reviews will provide the basis for 
identification of improvements and preparation of cash flow reports for 
submission to the Service as prescribed by I TFM 6-8000. That Chapter 
provides requirements for an agency in performing periodic cash 
management reviews, identifying improvements, and preparing cash flow 
reports. In addition, the Chapter describes the timing and content of 
periodic reports that must be submitted by an agency to the Service on 
progress made in implementing cash management initiatives and associated 
savings.
    (d) The Service will periodically review an agency's cash management 
program to ensure that adequate progress is being made to improve 
overall cash management at an agency. As part of its oversight 
authority, the Service may visit an agency and review

[[Page 40]]

all or specific cash management activities of an agency. An agency will 
be notified in advance of the Service's review and will be required to 
provide the Service with documentation of the agency cash management 
review within the timeframes required by I TFM 6-8000.



Sec. 206.7  Compliance.

    (a) The Service will monitor agency cash management performance. 
Part of the monitoring process will include establishing implementation 
end dates for conversion to, or expansion of, EFT mechanisms, as well as 
the identification of mitigating circumstances that may prevent the use 
of EFT.
    (b) In cases where an agency fails to meet a scheduled date within 
its control, or where an agency converts to a less cost-effective 
transfer mechanism without prior, written Service approval as determined 
in accordance with Sec. 206.4(c), the Service will send a formal Notice 
of Deficiency to an agency's designated cash management official. A 
separate Notice will be sent for each initiative.
    (1) Collections cash flows. For collections cash flows, the Notice 
of Deficiency will include the nature of the deficiency, the amount of 
the proposed charge, the method of calculation, the right to file an 
appeal, and the date the charge will be imposed in the absence of an 
appeal. The amount of the charge will be equal to the cost of such 
noncompliance to the Treasury's General Fund.
    (2) Payments cash flows. [Reserved]



Sec. 206.8  Appeals.

    (a) An agency that chooses to file an appeal must submit the appeal 
in writing to the Commissioner within 45 days of the date of the Notice 
of Deficiency. In the event of an appeal, the charge imposed under 
Notice of Deficiency will be deferred pending the results of the appeal. 
If an appeal is not submitted (i.e., received by the Commissioner) 
within 45 days, the amount indicated in the Notice of Deficiency will be 
charged per Sec. 206.9(a).
    (b) The appeal will contain the elements and follow the submission 
procedures specified in I TFM 6-8000. The appeal will include the 
background leading to the Notice of Deficiency, the basis of the appeal, 
and the action requested by an agency. An agency should state its 
disagreements with the Notice of Deficiency which may include cost-
benefit factors, the amount of the charge, and other items.
    (c) An agency must state what action it requests in its appeal. An 
agency may request that the Notice of Deficiency be completely 
overturned for cost-benefit or other considerations. Alternatively, an 
agency may request a reduced charge, deferral of the charge, an 
alternative solution to cash management improvement, or a combination of 
these actions.
    (d) Appeals Board. The Commissioner will refer the appeal to an 
Appeals Board. The Appeals Board will consist of three members--two 
permanent members and one temporary member. The permanent members will 
be the Deputy Chief Financial Officer, Department of the Treasury, and 
the Assistant Commissioner, Federal Finance, of the Service. The 
temporary board member will be a cash management official from an agency 
other than the agency appealing the Notice of Deficiency. The Board will 
be convened on an as-needed basis. The order of agency assignment to the 
Board will be published by Treasury in Volume I, Chapter 6-8000 of the 
TFM. The Deputy Chief Financial Officer, Department of the Treasury, the 
Assistant Commissioner, Federal Finance, and the designated agency cash 
management official may delegate their responsibility to a staff 
subordinate having sufficient experience in cash management matters. The 
Assistant Commissioner's designee may be from any area other than that 
which issued the Notice of Deficiency.
    (e) Appeal review process. The Appeals Board will review the Notice 
of Deficiency, any additional information submitted by the Service, and 
the written appeal from an agency. Based on this review, the Board may 
decide additional investigation is required. The Board may request an 
agency and/or the Service to meet with the Board as part of the review 
process.
    (f) Appeal finding. A written majority decision will be rendered by 
the Appeals Board within 30 days of receipt of

[[Page 41]]

the appeal. The Board may extend this period for an additional period, 
not to exceed 30 days, if required. The Appeals Board will notify the 
Commissioner and the agency of the decision. The decision of the Board 
whether to uphold the Notice of Deficiency, to overturn the Notice of 
Deficiency, or to mandate some other action will be stated in the 
finding. Other action mandated may include a reduced charge, a deferral 
of the charge, an alternate solution to cash management improvement, or 
a combination of these actions. The basis of the decision, the amount of 
the charge, and the effective date of the charge will be stated in the 
finding. The effective date of the charge may be retroactive to the date 
indicated in the Notice of Deficiency.
    (g) Any terms related to charge deferral shall be stated; the 
Service and an agency will be required to submit evidence of compliance 
to such terms at a future specified date. At this future time, the 
Appeals Board will review the evidence of compliance. Based on this 
evidence, the Board will decide whether to impose a charge.



Sec. 206.9  Charges.

    (a) Within 30 days of the effective date of the charge or the 
appeals decision, an agency must submit appropriate accounting 
information to the Service's Assistant Commissioner, Federal Finance. 
The charge will be calculated following procedures outlined in I TFM 6-
8000, and will be assessed for each month that noncompliance continues.
    (b) Collection noncompliance. In the case of cash management 
collection noncompliance, an agency will absorb the charge from amounts 
appropriated or otherwise made available to carry out the program to 
which the collections relate. Charges collected from an executive agency 
in the case of cash management collection noncompliance will be 
deposited in the Cash Management Improvements Fund as outlined in 
Sec. 206.10.
    (c) Payment noncompliance. [Reserved]
    (d) If an agency does not voluntarily pay the charge assessed under 
Sec. 206.9(a), the Service will debit the appropriate account 
automatically. By failing to pay voluntarily the charges as required by 
the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984, an agency will be deemed to authorize 
the automatic debit to its account.
    (e) The Commissioner will formally terminate the charge when the 
Commissioner has determined that an agency has complied. In addition, on 
an annual basis, the Commissioner will review an agency's performance 
and calculation of the charge, and will notify an agency in writing of 
any changes to the amount being charged.



Sec. 206.10  Operation of and payments from the Cash Management Improvements Fund.

    (a) The Cash Management Improvements Fund (Fund) will be operated as 
a revolving fund by the Service. Charges assessed under Sec. 206.9(a) 
for cash management collection noncompliance will be deposited into the 
Fund according to the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984. The Service will 
also disburse any payments from the Fund based on projects selected by a 
project selection and approval committee.
    (b) Committee composition. The committee will consist of three 
members--two permanent members and one temporary member. The permanent 
members will be the Commissioner and the Assistant Commissioner, Federal 
Finance, of the Service. The temporary committee member will be a cash 
management official from an agency other than an agency being considered 
for funds. The order of agency assignment to the Committee will be 
published in a TFM Bulletin, when funds are first deposited to the Fund. 
Decisions of the project selection and approval committee cannot be 
appealed. Agencies will be notified of any available amounts in the Fund 
and requirements to apply for such monies through a TFM bulletin.
    (c) As provided by 31 U.S.C. 3720, sums in the Fund will be 
available without fiscal year limitation for the payment of expenses 
incurred in developing improved methods of collection and deposit and 
the expenses incurred in carrying out collections and deposits using 
such methods, including the costs of personal services and the costs of 
the lease or purchase of equipment and operating facilities.
    (d) In addition to all reports required by law and regulation, for 
each fiscal

[[Page 42]]

year during which there is a balance in Fund, the Service will prepare 
and publish, by the 60th day following the close of the fiscal year, a 
full report on payments, receipts, disbursements, balances of the Fund, 
and full disclosure on projects financed by the Fund.

    Once an ACH enrollment has been completed, all payments covered by

account identification at that financial institution using an enrollment

of the recipient.
    (b) In executing an enrollment, a recipient:

it is terminated by one of the following events:
    (1) A request from the recipient to the program agency to terminate

program agency or agencies in accordance with implementing instructions 
issued by the Federal Government.

Sec. 210.6  Federal Reserve Banks.

    (a) Each Federal Reserve Bank as Fiscal Agent of the United States 
shall receive payment instructions from the Federal Government and shall 
make available and pay to financial institutions amounts specified in

and conduct the operations contemplated under this part. Each Federal 
Reserve Bank may issue operating circulars (sometimes referred to as 
operating letters or bulletins) not inconsistent with this part, 
governing the details of its handling of payments under this part and 
containing such provisions as are required and permitted by this part.
    (b) The Federal Government by its action of issuing and sending any 
payment instruction contained in the media specified in Sec. 210.2(k) 
shall be deemed to authorize the Federal Reserve Banks to:
    (1) Pay the amount specified in the payment instruction to the debit

    (2) Handle and act upon the payment instruction.
    (c) Upon receipt of a payment instruction, a Federal Reserve Bank, 
either directly or through another Federal Reserve Bank, correspondent

later than the opening of business on the payment date on a medium as 
prescribed by the Federal Reserve Bank.
    (d) A financial institution by its action in maintaining or 
utilizing an account at a Federal Reserve Bank shall be deemed to

correspondent maintaining an account with the Federal Reserve Bank.
    (e) A Federal Reserve Bank receiving a payment instruction from the 
Federal Government shall make the amount specified in the payment

Treasury and shall not be liable to any other party for any loss 
resulting from the Federal Reserve Bank's action under this section.

FR 21636, Apr. 22, 1993]



Sec. 210.7  Financial institutions.

    (a) A financial institution's execution of actions required of it in 
connection with an enrollment shall constitute its agreement to the 
terms of this part with respect to each payment received by it pursuant 
to the enrollment. Regardless of whether it has executed an enrollment, 
a financial institution's acceptance and handling of a payment issued 
pursuant to this part shall constitute its agreement to the provisions 
of this part.
    (b) A financial institution in executing an enrollment shall be 
responsible for:
    (1) The completeness and accuracy of the data provided by it with 
respect to the enrollment, and
    (2) Verifying that the account number entered by the recipient 
during enrollment corresponds to an account bearing the name of the 
recipient.
    (c) A financial institution wishing to terminate an enrollment shall 
do so by giving written notice to the recipient. The termination shall 
become effective 30 days after the financial institution has sent the 
notice to the recipient. However, terminations for reasons of fraud 
shall be effective immediately.
    (d) A financial institution receiving a nonbenefit (except Federal 
salary) payment instruction under this part shall credit the amount of 
the payment to the designated account of the recipient on its books, and 
it shall make the amount available on the payment date. In the case of a 
Federal Government salary or benefit payment instruction, the financial 
institution shall make the amount of the payment available for 
withdrawal not later than the opening of business on the payment date. 
Available in this paragraph means accessible through any means of access 
provided by a financial institution to its customers for the recipients' 
type of account, for example, automated teller machines owned by the 
financial institution, or automatic transfers from the recipient's 
account. If the payments or any related information received by the 
financial institution from a Federal Reserve Bank do not balance; are 
incomplete; are clearly erroneous on their face; or are incapable of 
being processed, the financial institution, after assuring itself that 
neither it nor any of its agents are responsible, shall immediately 
notify the Federal Reserve Bank in order that it may deliver corrected 
information to the financial institution.
    (e) A financial institution receiving a payment under this part 
shall credit the amount of the payment to the account specified in the 
payment instruction. If the financial institution is unable to credit 
the amount of the payment to the account indicated in the payment 
instruction because, for example, such an account does not exist on its 
books, or because in processing the payment it has reason to believe the 
account indicated in the payment instruction is not the account 
designated by the recipient, it shall either:
    (1) Return the payment to the Federal Reserve Bank with a statement 
identifying the reason therefor; or
    (2) Credit the amount of the payment to the account designated by 
the recipient.

A credit to any other account by a financial institution shall 
constitute a breach of its warranty made by reason of paragraph (i) of 
this section.

[[Page 48]]

    (f) A financial institution shall immediately return to the Federal 
Government through the Federal Reserve Bank any payment received by the 
financial institution:
    (1) After termination of the enrollment pursuant to Sec. 210.4(c)(2) 
and before the execution of a new enrollment;
    (2) After termination of the enrollment pursuant to Sec. 210.7(c) 
has become effective;
    (3) After the financial institution learns of the death or legal 
incapacity of the recipient, or the death of the beneficiary, of a 
benefit payment, regardless of whether or not notice has been received 
from the Federal Government; or
    (4) After the closing of the recipient's account.
    (g) A financial institution to which a payment is sent under this 
part does not thereby become a Federal Government depositary and shall 
not advertise itself as one because of that fact.
    (h) If any change in account numbers permitted by Sec. 210.4(f) is 
made by a financial institution, the financial institution shall be 
liable to the recipient for any lost or late payment caused by the 
financial institution's actions in processing the change.
    (i) Each financial institution by its action of handling a payment 
under this part shall be deemed to warrant to the Federal Government 
that it has handled the payment in accordance with the requirements of 
this part. In addition to the liability which may be imposed pursuant to 
Sec. 210.11, if the foregoing warranty is breached, the financial 
institution shall be liable to the Federal Government for any loss 
sustained by the Federal Government, but only to the extent that the 
loss was the result of the breach. Except as provided in this section 
Secs. 210.10(b) and 210.11, a financial institution shall not be liable 
under this part to any party for its handling of a payment.
[52 FR 2406, Jan. 22, 1987, as amended at 54 FR 20570, May 12, 1989]



Sec. 210.8  Prenotification.

    (a) Regardless of whether it has participated in an enrollment, a 
financial institution's acceptance and handling of a prenotification or 
a payment issued pursuant to this part shall constitute its agreement to 
the provisions of this part.
    (b) At the discretion of the Service, a prenotification may be 
originated for any ACH payment.
    (c) The financial institution shall respond to the prenotification 
message by midnight of the banking day following the banking day of 
receipt of such prenotification if the information contained in the 
message does not agree with the corresponding record of the financial 
institution, or if for any reason the financial institution will not be 
able to credit the payment in accordance with this part.
    (d) If a financial institution does not respond to a prenotification 
message within the specified time period, the financial institution 
shall be deemed to have accepted the prenotification and to have 
warranted to the Federal Government that it shall make the payment 
available on time to the account specified in the prenotification.
[54 FR 20570, May 12, 1989]



Sec. 210.9  Timeliness of action.

    If, because of circumstances beyond its control, action by the 
Federal Government, a Federal Reserve Bank, or a financial institution 
is delayed beyond the time prescribed for the action (including the 
payment date) by this part, by the operating circulars of the Federal 
Reserve Banks, or by applicable law, the time within which the action 
shall be completed shall be extended for such time after the cause of 
the delay ceases to operate as shall be necessary to take or complete 
the action, provided the Federal Government, the Federal Reserve Bank, 
or the financial institution exercises such diligence as the 
circumstances require.
[52 FR 2406, Jan. 22, 1987, redesignated at 54 FR 20570, May 12, 1989]



Sec. 210.10  Liability of, and acquittance to, the United States.

    (a) The United States shall be liable to a recipient for the failure 
to credit the proper amount of a payment to the appropriate account of 
the recipient as required by this part. This liability shall be limited 
to the amount of the payment.

[[Page 49]]

    (b) The United States shall be liable to the financial institution, 
up to the amount of the payment, for a loss sustained by the financial 
institution as a result of its crediting the amount of the payment to 
the account specified in the payment instruction, if the financial 
institution has handled the payment in accordance with this part. The 
foregoing does not extend to benefit payments received by the financial 
institution after the death or legal incapacity of the recipient or 
death of the beneficiary, in which event Sec. 210.11 shall govern.
    (c) The crediting of the amount of a payment to the appropriate 
account of a recipient on the books of the appropriate financial 
institution shall constitute a full acquittance to the United States for 
the amount of the payment.
[52 FR 2406, Jan. 22, 1987. Redesignated at 54 FR 20570, May 12, 1989]



Sec. 210.11  Fraud.

    (a) The False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. 3729, et seq., provides for the 
recovery of damages and a civil penalty from any person who knowingly 
presents to the Federal Government, or causes to be presented, a false 
or fraudulent claim for payment, or uses a false record or statement in 
connection with such a claim. In addition, criminal penalties are 
provided in 18 U.S.C. 1001 for knowingly making false or fraudulent 
statements or representations to agencies of the Federal Government, and 
in 18 U.S.C. 1002 for knowingly possessing false documents for the 
purpose of enabling another to receive a payment from the Federal 
Government. These provisions are in addition to the Federal Government's 
remedies under common law.
    (b) A financial institution shall verify the identity of any person 
who initiates and executes an enrollment through such financial 
institution. The Federal Government shall verify the identity of any 
person who presents an enrollment to the Federal Government without 
prior review or execution by a financial institution. A financial 
institution that executes an enrollment in which the recipient's or 
beneficiary's signature is forged or other information is falsified 
shall be liable to the Federal Government for all payments made in 
reliance thereon, except for the case where the beneficiary was deceased 
at the time the recipient executed the enrollment and if the financial 
institution had no knowledge of the beneficiary's death. However, once 
the financial institution has provided written or electronic notice to 
the program agency that a payment certified by the program agency has 
not been received by the correct recipient or beneficiary, it shall not 
be liable for any payments based on the forged, false, or fraudulent 
information which are certified for payment after the date such written 
or electronic notice is received by the program agency.

Redesignated at 54 FR 50618, Dec. 8, 1989.



Sec. 210.12  Death or legal incapacity of recipients or death of beneficiaries.

    (a) A financial institution shall be liable to the Federal 
Government for the total amount of all benefit payments received after 
the death or legal incapacity of the recipient or the death of the 
beneficiary, except as provided in paragraph (f) of this section. 
However, a financial institution may limit its liability if the 
financial institution did not have knowledge of the death or legal 
incapacity at the time of the deposit or withdrawal of any of the 
benefit payments made after the death or legal incapacity, and if it 
fulfills the requirements of this section and those of Secs. 210.12 and 
210.13.
    (b) Except as provided in paragraph (f) of this section, if 
limitation of liability is available to a financial institution under 
this part, the amount of its liability shall be:
    (1) An amount equal to the amount in the recipient's or 
beneficiary's account as defined in Sec. 210.12(b)(2)(i), plus.
    (2) An amount equal to the benefit payments received by the 
financial institution within 45 days after the death or legal incapacity 
of the recipient or the death of the beneficiary; Provided,

[[Page 50]]

that the financial institution will be liable only for the 45-day amount 
to the extent described in Sec. 210.12(d).
    (c) Although a financial institution shall be liable for an amount 
equal to the amount in the recipient's or beneficiary's account, plus 
the amount of benefit payments received within 45 days after the death 
or legal incapacity of the recipient or the beneficiary, this part does 
not authorize or direct a financial institution to debit the account of 
any customer, living or deceased, including that of the recipient or 
beneficiary, for the financial institution's liability to the Federal 
Government under this part. The amount in the recipient's or 
beneficiary's account is only a measure of the financial institution's 
liability. Nothing in this part shall be construed to affect any right a 
financial institution may have under State law or the financial 
institution's contract with a customer to recover from the customer's 
account an amount returned to the Federal Government in compliance with 
this part.
    (d) A financial institution shall be deemed to have knowledge of the 
death or legal incapacity of the recipient or beneficiary when it is 
brought to the attention of a financial institution employee who handles 
benefits payments, or when it would have been brought to that person's 
attention if the financial institution had exercised due diligence. The 
financial institution will be considered to have exercised due diligence 
only if it maintains procedures under which, once it learns of the death 
of a depositor, it determines whether its deceased depositor is a 
recipient or beneficiary of benefit payments under this part, and 
immediately communicates such information to the appropriate employees, 
and it complies with such procedures. This obligation does not impose a 
duty on a financial institution to learn of the deaths of its customers 
by searching obituaries or any other means, unless it does so for 
purposes other than its participation in the payment system governed by 
this part.
    (e) A financial institution that fails to comply timely with the 
collection procedures set forth in Sec. 210.12 or the Notice to Account 
Owners requirement of Sec. 210.13 may not limit its liability in 
accordance with paragraph (a) of this section.
    (f) A financial institution will not be liable under this part for 
benefit payments made after the death of a beneficiary if the 
beneficiary was deceased at the time the recipient executed an 
enrollment and if the financial institution had no knowledge of the 
beneficiary's death.



Sec. 210.13  Collection procedures.

    The amount for which the financial institution is liable under 
Sec. 210.11 shall be collected as follows:
    (a) For each type of benefit payment, the Federal Government will 
send a Notice of Reclamation to the financial institution. The Notice of 
Reclamation will identify benefit payments sent to the financial 
institution for credit to the account of a recipient or beneficiary 
which should have been returned by the financial institution because of 
the death or legal incapacity of a recipient or the death of a 
beneficiary.
    (b) Upon receipt of the Notice of Reclamation, the financial 
institution must do one of the following:
    (1) If the financial institution had knowledge of the death or legal 
incapacity and did not immediately return to the Federal Government all 
benefit payments received after it acquired that knowledge, the 
financial institution shall immediatelly return to the Federal 
Government an amount equal to the outstanding total of benefit payments 
listed on the notice that it received after it learned of the death. 
With respect to any benefit payments received prior to learning of the 
death that have not been returned, the financial institution shall 
certify on the Notice of Reclamation the date it learned of the death 
and follow the procedure in paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
    (2) If the financial institution had no knowledge of the death or 
legal incapacity at the time any benefit payments made after the death 
or legal incapacity were credited to the recipient's or beneficiary's 
account, an appropriate official of the financial institution shall 
certify on the Notice of Reclamation that it had no knowledge of the 
death or legal incapacity and

[[Page 51]]

fully complete the Notice of Reclamation in accordance with its 
instructions and do the following:
    (i) The financial institution shall return to the Federal Government 
both the executed Notice of Reclamation and an amount equal to the 
amount in the account or the outstanding total, whichever is less. The 
amount in the account is the balance when the financial institution has 
received the Notice of Reclamation and has had a reasonable time to take 
action based on its receipts, plus any additions to the account balance 
made before the financial institution returns the completed Notice of 
Reclamation to the Federal Government. For the purposes of this 
paragraph, action is taken within a reasonable time if it is taken not 
later than the close of business day following the receipt of the Notice 
of Reclamation.
    (ii) If the amount returned is less than the amount requested in the 
notice, the financial institution shall include with the Notice of 
Reclamation the name and the most current address on its records of any 
person(s) who withdrew funds from the account after the death or legal 
incapacity. If the financial institution is unable to supply the name(s) 
of the withdrawer(s), it shall provide the names and most current 
addresses on its records of any co-owners of the account or other 
persons authorized to withdraw. If it is unable to supply the names or 
addresses of the withdrawers or co-owners, it shall state the reason for 
its inability on the Notice of Reclamation.
    (3) If the Federal Government issues a second or subsequent Notice 
of Reclamation for the same type of payment for the same recipient or 
beneficiary, the financial institution shall be liable with respect to 
such second or subsequent Notice only for an amount equal to the amount 
in the account at the time it receives a second or subsequent Notice of 
Reclamation, plus any further additions to the account balance up to the 
date it returns these subsequent Notices of Reclamation. For a second or 
subsequent Notice of Reclamation for the same type of payment for the 
same recipient or beneficiary, the financial institution shall not be 
liable for an amount in excess of the amount determined under the first 
sentence of this paragraph, attributable to benefit payments received 
within 45 days after the death or legal incapacity if it complied 
properly and timely to the first Notice of Reclamation.
    (c) If the Federal Government does not receive a response to the 
Notice of Reclamation within 30 days, it will issue a follow-up to 
ensure that the original Notice of Reclamation was received. If the 
Federal Government does not receive from the financial institution the 
fully completed and properly executed Notice of Reclamation along with 
the amount due under Sec. 210.11(b)(1) within 60 days of the issue date 
of the original Notice of Reclamation, the financial institution shall 
be liable for the outstanding total listed on the Notice of Reclamation. 
Following the sixtieth day after the date of the original Notice of 
Reclamation, the Federal Government will instruct the appropriate 
Federal Reserve Bank to debit the account utilized by the financial 
institution for receipt of benefit payments in the amount of the 
outstanding total. By receiving benefit payments under this part, the 
financial institution is deemed to authorize this debit. The Federal 
Reserve Bank will provide advice of the debit to the financial 
institution.
    (d) After the financial institution has paid to the Federal 
Government an amount equal to the amount in the recipient's account as 
provided in Sec. 210.11(b)(1), if the program agency is unable to 
collect the entire outstanding total from the withdrawer(s), the 
financial institution shall be liable for an additional amount equal to 
the benefit payment received by it within 45 days after the death or 
legal incapacity, or the balance of the outstanding total, whichever is 
less. The Federal Government will instruct the appropriate Federal 
Reserve Bank to debit the account utilized by the financial institution 
for receipt of benefit payments in the amount of the outstanding total. 
By receiving benefit payments under this part, the financial institution 
is deemed to authorize this debit. The Federal Reserve Bank will provide 
advice of the debit to the financial institution.

[[Page 52]]

    (e) Immediately upon learning of the death or legal incapacity 
regardless of whether there has been notification from the Federal 
Government, the financial institution shall return to the Federal 
Government any further benefit payments it receives and notify the 
Federal Government that it has learned of the death or legal incapacity 
in order that the above collection procedures can be commenced. See 
Sec. 210.7(f)(3).



Sec. 210.14  Notice to Account Owners of collection action.

    (a) Upon receipt by a financial institution of the Notice of 
Reclamation as described in Sec. 210.12(a), the financial institution 
shall immediately mail to the current address(es) of the account 
owner(s) of record a copy of the Notice to Account Owners included with 
the Notice of Reclamation.
    (b) The financial institution shall indicate with the Notice to 
Account Owners any action it has taken or intends to take with respect 
to the recipient's or beneficiary's account in connection with the 
Federal Government's collection action against the financial 
institution.
    (c) The financial institution is not authorized by this part to 
debit the account of any party or to deposit any funds from any account 
in a suspense account or escrow account or the equivalent. If such 
action is taken, it must be under authority of State law or the 
financial institution's contract with its depositor(s).
    (d) The financial institution's liability under this part is not 
affected by any action taken by it to recover from any party the amount 
of the financial institution's liability to the Federal Government.
    (e) Failure to mail the Notice to Account Owners, or failure to 
certify on the Notice of Reclamation that it has done so, shall result 
in the forfeiture by the financial institution of its ability under this 
part to limit its liability. See Sec. 210.11(e).



Sec. 210.15  Erroneous death information.

    (a) In the event that the financial institution is advised that the 
Federal Government's information that the recipient or beneficiary is 
deceased is incorrect, or that the date of death is incorrect, the 
financial institution shall certify the correct information to the 
Federal Government by one of the following means:
    (1) Certify on the ``Notice of Reclamation'' that the person whose 
name is reflected on the notice is alive, or that the date of death is 
incorrect, and that the financial institution took prudent measures to 
assure that the person was alive or that the date of death was 
erroneous. Prudent measures to assure that the person was alive include, 
but are not limited to, the named person providing the financial 
institution adequate identification, or obtaining through a third person 
a signed, dated and notarized statement from the named person. Prudent 
measures to assure the correct date of death include obtaining a death 
certificate.
    (2) If there is any question regarding the sufficiency of the 
evidence presented to demonstrate that the date or fact of death is 
incorrect, the individual presenting the evidence should be referred by 
the financial institution to the agency making the payment, e.g., the 
Social Security Administration or the Veterans Administration. The 
agency will certify in writing to the financial institution the 
corrected information. The financial institution shall then return the 
agency's certification with the Notice of Reclamation.
    (b) If the Federal Government's informaion that the recipient or 
beneficiary is deceased is in error, the financial institution shall be 
relieved of its liability, and shall no longer be subject to collection 
procedures under this part, if an accurate certification in accordance 
with paragraph (a) of this section is received by the Federal 
Government, on or with a properly completed Notice of Reclamation, 
within 60 days of the date of the original Notice of Reclamation to the 
financial institution.
    (c) If the date of the death on the Notice of Reclamation is in 
error, the financial institution shall be relieved of an appropriate 
part of its liability if an accurate certification in accordance with 
paragraph (a) of this section is received by the Federal Government, on 
or with properly completed Notice of Reclamation, within 60 days of the 
date

[[Page 53]]

of the original Notice of Reclamation to the financial institution. In 
that event, the financial institution shall adjust the outstanding total 
on the Notice of Reclamation to exclude benefit payments made before the 
corrected date of death. The financial institution shall include an 
explanation of the adjustment with the Notice of Reclamation. If 
correction of an error relating to the date of death shown on the Notice 
of Reclamation would result in additional payments being due to the 
Federal Government, the financial institution shall so notify the 
Federal Government when it returns the Notice of Reclamation.
    (d) If after the financial institution has returned to the Federal 
Government a completed Notice of Reclamation and had made payment of its 
liability, the financial institution learns that the fact of death or 
date of death was in error, it should bring the information to the 
attention of the agency which made the benefit payments, e.g., the 
Social Security Administration or the Railraod Retirement Board. The 
agency will refund to the financial institution, without interest, the 
appropriate amount of funds paid by the financial institution pursuant 
to Sec. 210.12, including funds debited from its Federal Reserve account 
under Sec. 210.12 (c) or (d).

                          Subpart B--Procedures



Sec. 215.3  Relationship of Standard Agreement to existing agreements.

    (a) Subpart C of this part is the Standard Agreement which the 
Secretary will enter into with a State, city or county. This Standard 
Agreement replaces all prior agreements between the Secretary and the 
State or city covering the withholding of income or employment taxes 
from the compensation of Federal employees. The Standard Agreement is 
essentially the same as the prior agreements. A State of city which 
currently is a party to an agreement with the Secretary covering the 
withholding of income or employment taxes from the compensation of 
Federal employees does not need to apply for a new agreement under this 
part. A State or city currently a party to an agreement will be presumed 
to have consented to be

[[Page 57]]

bound by the terms of the Standard Agreement (subpart C). If a State or 
city, which is currently a party, does not want to be bound by the 
Standard Agreement, it shall notify the Fiscal Assistant Secretary, 
Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 20220, in writing over the 
signature of an officer authorized to bind contractually the State or 
city within 90 days of the effective date of this part. The procedures 
of Sec. 215.5 shall be followed by a State or city which proposes to be 
bound by an agreement other than the Standard Agreement.
    (b) The effective date for the replacement of existing State or city 
Standard Agreements by the Standard Agreement appearing as subpart C of 
this part is the effective date of this part. For current other-than-
Standard-Agreements, it is 120 days after the effective date of this 
part unless an earlier effective date is specifically agreed to or a new 
agreement which is other than the Standard Agreement of subpart C, is 
entered into as provided in this subpart.



Sec. 215.4  Procedures for entering into a Standard Agreement.

    (a) A State, city or county which does not have an existing 
agreement and wishes to enter into a Standard Agreement shall indicate 
in a letter its agreement to be bound by the provisions of subpart C. 
The letter shall be addressed to the Fiscal Assistant Secretary, 
Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 20220, and be signed by an 
officer authorized to bind contractually the State, city or county. 
Copies of all applicable State laws, city or county ordinances and 
implementing regulations, instructions, and forms shall be enclosed. The 
letter shall also indicate the title and address of the official whom 
Federal agencies may contact to obtain forms and other information 
necessary to implement withholding.
    (b) Within 120 days of the receipt of the letter from the State, 
city or county official, the Fiscal Assistant Secretary will, by letter, 
notify the State, city or county:
    (1) That the Standard Agreement has been entered into as of the date 
of the Fiscal Assistant Secretary's letter, or
    (2) That an agreement cannot be entered into with the State, city or 
county and the reasons for that determination.

The withholding of the State, city or county income or employment tax 
shall commence within 90 days after the effective date of the agreement.



Sec. 215.5  Procedures for an agreement other than a Standard Agreement.

    (a) If a State, city or county proposes an agreement which varies 
from the Standard Agreement, the State, city or county shall follow the 
procedure in Sec. 215.4(a), except that its letter shall indicate which 
provisions of the Standard Agreement are not acceptable and the basis 
therefor, and propose substitute provisions.
    (b) Within 60 days of the receipt of the letter from the State, city 
or county official, the Fiscal Assistant Secretary will notify the 
State, city or county which substitute provisions may be included in the 
agreement. The State, city or county shall, by letter, notify the Fiscal 
Assistant Secretary if it accepts such an agreement. When accepted by 
the State, city or county the effective date of that agreement shall be 
the date such acceptance letter is received by the Fiscal Assistant 
Secretary. The withholding of the State, city or county income or 
employment tax shall commence within 90 days after the effective date of 
the agreement.



                      Subpart C--Standard Agreement



Sec. 215.6  In general.

    This subpart is the text of the Standard Agreement between the 
Secretary and the State, city or county. The terms used in this 
agreement are defined in Sec. 215.2 of this part.



Sec. 215.7  Parties.

    The parties to this agreement are the Secretary and the State, city 
or county which has entered into this agreement pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 
5516, 5517, or 5520 and Executive Order 11997 (June 22, 1977).

[[Page 58]]



Sec. 215.8  Compliance by agencies.

    (a) In the case of an agreement with a State, the head of each 
agency is required to withhold State income taxes from the compensation 
of:
    (1) Employees of such agency who are subject to such taxes and whose 
regular place of Federal employment is within the State, and
    (2) Members of the Armed Forces who are subject to such taxes and 
who are legal residents of the State.

The foregoing is also applicable with respect to a State whose statutes 
permit but do not require withholding by employers, provided the 
employee voluntarily elects to have such tax withheld.
    (b) In the case of an agreement with a city or county, the head of 
each agency is required to withhold city or county income or employment 
taxes from the compensation of any employee of the agency who is subject 
to the tax, and
    (1) Whose regular place of Federal employment is within the city or 
county, or
    (2) Is a resident of the city or county.
    (c) In withholding taxes, the head of each agency, except as 
otherwise provided in this agreement, shall comply with the withholding 
provisions of the State, city or county income or employment tax 
statute, regulations, procedural instructions and reciprocal agreements 
related thereto.

(Pub. L. 95-365, 92 Stat. 599 (5 U.S.C. 5520))
[42 FR 33731, July 1, 1977, as amended at 44 FR 4670, Jan. 23, 1979]



Sec. 215.9  Withholding certificates.

    Each agency may require employees or members of the Armed Forces 
under its jurisdiction to complete a withholding certificate in order to 
calculate the amount to be withheld. The agency shall use the 
withholding certificate which the State, city or county has prescribed. 
Where the State, city or county has not prescribed a certificate, the 
agency may use a certificate approved by the Department of the Treasury. 
The agency may rely on the information in the certificate. Copies of 
completed certificates shall be provided to the taxing authority by 
agencies upon request.



Sec. 215.10  Change of legal residence by members of the Armed Forces.

    (a) In determining the legal residence of a member of the Armed 
Forces for tax withholding purposes, the head of an agency at all times 
may rely on the agency's current records, which may include a 
certificate of legal residence. The form of the certificate of legal 
residence shall be approved by the Department of the Treasury. A change 
of legal residence of a member of the Armed Forces shall become 
effective for tax withholding purposes only after a member of the Armed 
Forces completes a certificate indicating a new legal residence and 
delivers it to the agency.
    (b) Heads of agencies shall notify the State of prior legal 
residence of the member of the Armed Forces involved on a monthly basis 
concerning the change of the member's legal residence. The notification 
shall include the name, social security number, current mailing address 
and the new legal residence of such member of the Armed Forces. The 
effective date of the change in legal residence shall also be included 
in the notification.



Sec. 215.11  Agency withholding procedures.

    (a) State income tax shall be withheld only on the entire 
compensation of Federal employees and members of the Armed Forces. 
Nonresident employees, who under the State income tax law are required 
to allocate at least three-fourths of their compensation to the State, 
shall be subject to withholding on their entire compensation. 
Nonresident employees, who under the State income tax law are required 
to allocate less than three-fourths of their compensation to the State, 
may elect to:
    (1) Have State income tax withheld on their entire compensation, or
    (2) Have no income tax withheld on their compensation.
    (b) In calculating the amount to be withheld from an employee's or a 
member's compensation, each agency shall use the method prescribed by 
the State income tax statute or city or county ordinance or a method 
which produces approximately the tax required to be withheld:

[[Page 59]]

    (1) By the State income tax statute from the compensation of each 
employee or member of the Armed Forces subject to such income tax, or
    (2) By the city or county ordinance from the compensation of each 
employee subject to such income or employment tax.
    (c) Where it is the practice of a Federal agency under Federal tax 
withholding procedure to make returns and payment of the tax on an 
estimated basis, subject to later adjustment based on audited figures, 
this practice may be applied with respect to the State, city of county 
income or employment tax where the agency has made appropriate 
arrangements with the State, city or county income tax authorities.
    (d) Copies of Federal Form W-2, ``Wage and Tax Statement'', may be 
used for reporting withheld taxes to the State, city or county.
    (e) Withholding shall not be required on wages earned but unpaid at 
the date of an employee's or member's death.
    (f) Withholding of District of Columbia income tax shall not apply 
to pay of employees who are not residents of the District of Columbia as 
defined in 47 District of Columbia Code, chapter 15, subchapter II.



Sec. 215.12  Miscellaneous provisions.

    Nothing in this agreement shall be deemed:
    (a) To require collection by agencies of the United States of 
delinquent tax liabilities of Federal employees or members of the Armed 
Forces, or
    (b) To consent to the application of any provision of law of the 
State, city or county which has the effect of:

hereinafter sometimes called obligations, under the provisions of the 
Act of July 30, 1947 (61 Stat. 646, as amended; 6 U.S.C. 6-13), and the

Sec. 223.3  Issuance of certificates of authority.

    (a) If, from the evidence submitted in the manner and form herein 
required, subject to the guidelines referred to in Sec. 223.9 the 
Secretary of the Treasury shall be satisfied that such company has 
authority under its charter or articles of incorporation to do the 
business provided for by the Act referred to in Sec. 223.1, and if the 
Secretary of the Treasury shall be satisfied from such company's 
financial statement and from any further evidence or information he may 
require, and from such examination of the company, at its own expense, 
as he may cause to be made, that such company has a capital fully paid 
up in cash of not less than $250,000, is solvent and financially and 
otherwise qualified to do the business provided for in said Act, and is 
able to keep and perform its contracts, he will, subject to the further 
conditions herein contained, issue a certificate of authority to such 
company, under the seal of the Treasury Department, to qualify as surety 
on obligations permitted or required by the laws of the United States to 
be given with one or more sureties, for a term expiring on the last day 
of June next following. The certificate of authority shall be renewed 
annually on the first day of July, so long as the company remains

to the Assistant Commissioner, Comptroller by March 1 each year the fee 
in accordance with the provisions of Sec. 223.22(a)(3).
    (b) If a company meets the requirements for a certificate of 
authority as an acceptable surety on Federal bonds in all respects 
except that it is a United States branch of a company not incorporated 
under the laws of the United States or of any State, or it is limited by 
its articles of incorporation or corporate charter to reinsure business 
only, it may be issued a certificate of authority as a reinsuring 
company on Federal bonds. The fees for initial application and renewal 
of a certificate as a reinsuring company shall be the same as the fees 
for a certificate of authority as an acceptable surety on Federal bonds.

otherwise validated) by a company or its agent in a State where it has 
not obtained that State's license to do surety business. Although a

information, and in such manner as the Secretary of the Treasury may at

FR 47002, Nov. 30, 1984]



Sec. 223.9  Valuation of assets and liabilities.

[[Page 62]]

Treasury may value the assets and liabilities of such companies in his 
discretion. Credit will be allowed for reinsurance in all classes of 
risks if the reinsuring company holds a certificate of authority from 
the Secretary of the Treasury, or has been recognized as an admitted 
reinsurer in accord with Sec. 223.12.
[42 FR 8637, Feb. 11, 1977]



Sec. 223.10  Limitation of risk.

    Except as provided in Sec. 223.11, no company holding a certificate 
of authority shall underwrite any risk on any bond or policy on behalf 
of any individual, firm, association, or corporation, whether or not the 
United States is interested as a party thereto, the amount of which is 
greater than 10 percent of the paid-up capital and surplus of such 
company, as determined by the Secretary of the Treasury. That figure is 
hereinafter referred to as the underwriting limitation.
[34 FR 20188, Dec. 24, 1969]



Sec. 223.11  Limitation of risk: Protective methods.

    The limitation of risk prescribed in Sec. 223.10 may be complied 
with by the following methods:
    (a) Coinsurance. Two or more companies may underwrite a risk on any 
bond or policy, the amount of which does not exceed their aggregate 
underwriting limitations. Each company shall limit its liability upon 
the face of the bond or policy, to a definite specified amount which 
shall be within its underwriting limitation.
    (b) Reinsurance. (1) In respect to bonds running to the United 
States, liability in excess of the underwriting limitation shall be 
reinsured within 45 days from the date of execution and delivery of the 
bond with one or more companies holding a certificate of authority from 
the Secretary of the Treasury. Such reinsurance shall not be in excess 
of the underwriting limitation of the reinsuring company. Where 
reinsurance is contemplated, Federal agencies may accept a bond from the 
direct writing company in satisfaction of the total bond requirement 
even though it may exceed the direct writing company's underwriting 
limitation. Within the 45 day period, the direct writing company shall 
furnish to the Federal agency any necessary reinsurance agreements. 
However, a Federal agency may, at its discretion, require that 
reinsurance be obtained within a lesser period than 45 days, and may 
require completely executed reinsurance agreements in hand before making 
a final determination that any bond is acceptable. Reinsurance may 
protect bonds required to be furnished to the United States by the 
Miller Act (40 U.S.C. 270a through 270d) covering contracts for the 
construction, alteration, or repair of any public building or public 
work of the United States, as well as other types of Federal bonds. Use 
of reinsurance or coinsurance to protect such bonds is at the discretion 
of the direct writing company. Reinsurance shall be executed on 
reinsurance agreement forms (Standard Form 273 for Miller Act 
Performance bonds (formerly form No. TFS 6317), Standard Form 274 for 
Miller Act Payment bonds (formerly form No. TFS 6318), and Standard Form 
275 for other types of Federal bonds (formerly form No. TFS 6319)). 
Federal bond-approving officers may obtain the forms by submitting a 
requisition in FEDSTRIP/MILSTRIP format to the General Services 
Administration regional office providing support to the requesting 
Government organization. In addition, the forms are available to 
authorized sureties and reinsurers from the Superintendent of Documents, 
Government Printing Office, Stop: SSMC, Washington, DC 20402.
    (2) In respect to risks covered by bonds or policies not running to 
the United States, liability in excess of the underwriting limitation 
shall be reinsured within 45 days from the date of execution and 
delivery of the bond or policy with:
    (i) One or more companies holding a certificate of authority from 
the Secretary of the Treasury as an acceptable surety on Federal bonds 
or one or more companies holding a certificate of authority as an 
acceptable reinsuring company on such bonds, or
    (ii) One or more companies recognized as an admitted reinsurer in 
accord with Sec. 223.12, or

[[Page 63]]

    (iii) A pool, association, etc., to the extent that it is composed 
of such companies, or
    (iv) An instrumentality or agency of the United States which is 
permitted by Federal law or regulation to execute reinsurance contracts.
    (3) No certificate-holding company may cede to a reinsuring company 
recognized under Sec. 223.12 any risk in excess of 10 percent of the 
latter company's paid-up capital and surplus.
    (c) Other methods. In respect to all risks other than Miller Act 
performance and payment bonds running to the United States, which must 
be coinsured or reinsured in accord with paragraph (a) or (b)(1) of this 
section respectively, the excess liability may otherwise be protected:
    (1) By the deposit with the company in pledge, or by conveyance to 
it in trust for its protection, of assets admitted by the Treasury the 
current market value of which is at least equal to the liability in 
excess of its underwriting limitation, or
    (2) If such obligation was incurred on behalf of or on account of a 
fiduciary holding property in a trust capacity, by a joint control 
agreement which provides that the whole or a sufficient portion of the 
property so held may not be disposed of or pledged in any way without 
the consent of the insuring company.

FR 10605, Mar. 12, 1976; 42 FR 8637, Feb. 11, 1977; 43 FR 39089, Sept. 
1, 1978]



Sec. 223.12  Recognition as reinsurer.

    (a) Application by U.S. company. Any company organized under the 
laws of the United States or of any State thereof, wishing to apply for 
recognition as an admitted reinsurer (except on excess risks running to 
the United States) of surety companies doing business with the United 
States, shall file the following data with the Assistant Comptroller for 
Auditing and shall transmit therewith the fee in accordance with the 
provisions of Sec. 223.22(a)(2):
    (1) A certified copy of its charter or articles of incorporation, 
and
    (2) A certified copy of a license from any State in which it has 
been authorized to do business, and
    (3) A copy of the latest available report of its examination by a 
State Insurance Department, and
    (4) A statement of its financial condition, as of the close of the 
preceding calendar year, on the annual statement form of the National 
Association of Insurance Commissioners, signed and sworn to by two 
qualified officers of the company, showing that it has a capital stock 
paid up in cash of not less than $250,000, in the case of a stock 
insurance company, or has net assets of not less than $500,000 over and 
above all liabilities, in the case of a mutual insurance company, and
    (5) Such other evidence as the Secretary of the Treasury may 
determine necessary to establish that it is solvent and able to keep and 
perform its contracts.
    (b) Application by a U.S. branch. A U.S. branch of an alien company 
applying for such recognition shall file the following data with the 
Assistant Commissioner, Comptroller and shall transmit therewith the fee 
in accordance with the provisions of Sec. 223.22(a)(2):
    (1) The submissions listed in paragraphs (a) (1) through (5) of this 
section, except that the financial statement of such branch shall show 
that it has net assets of not less than $250,000 over and above all 
liabilities, and
    (2) Evidence satisfactory to the Secretary of the Treasury to 
establish that it has on deposit in the United States not less than 
$250,000 available to its policyholders and creditors in the United 
States.
    (c) Financial reports. Each company recognized as an admitted 
reinsurer shall file with the Assistant Commissioner, Comptroller on or 
before the first day of March of each year its financial statement and 
such additional evidence as the Secretary of the Treasury determines 
necessary to establish that the requirements of this section

[[Page 64]]

are being met. A fee shall be transmitted with the foregoing data, in 
accordance with the provisions of Sec. 223.22(a)(4).
[34 FR 20189, Dec. 24, 1969, as amended at 37 FR 1232, Jan. 27, 1972; 40

Sec. 223.13  Full penalty of the obligation regarded as the liability; exceptions.

    In determining the limitation prescribed in this part, the full 
penalty of the obligation will be regarded as the liability, and no 
offset will be allowed on account of any estimate of risk which is less 
than such full penalty, except in the following cases:
    (a) Appeal bonds; in which case the liability will be regarded as 
the amount of the judgment appealed from, plus 10 percent of said amount 
to cover interest and costs.
    (b) Bonds of executors, administrators, trustees, guardians, and 
other fiduciaries, where the penalty of the bond or other obligation is 
fixed in excess of the estimated value of the estate; in which cases the 
estimated value of the estate, upon which the penalty of the bond was 
fixed, will be regarded as the liability.
    (c) Credit will also be allowed for indemnifying agreements executed 
by sole heirs or beneficiaries of an estate releasing the surety from 
liability.
    (d) Contract bonds given in excess of the amount of the contract; in 
which cases the amount of the contract will be regarded as the 
liability.
    (e) Bonds for banks or trust companies as principals, conditioned to 
repay moneys on deposit, whereby any law or decree of a court, the 
amount to be deposited shall be less than the penalty of the bond; in 
which cases the maximum amount on deposit at any one time will be 
regarded as the liability.
[Dept. Circ. 297, July 5, 1922]



Sec. 223.14  Schedules of single risks.

    During the months of January, April, July, and October of each year 
every company will be required to report to the Secretary of the 
Treasury every obligation which it has assumed during the 3 months

the Secretary of the Treasury may deem necessary or proper.
[42 FR 8637, Feb. 11, 1977]

Sec. 223.17  Revocation.

    Whenever it appears that a company is not complying with the 
requirements of 6 U.S.C. 6-13 and of the regulations in this part, the 
Secretary of the Treasury will:
    (a) In all cases notify the company of the facts or conduct which 
indicate

[[Page 65]]

such failure, and provide opportunity to the company to respond, and
    (b) In those cases where the public interest in the constant 
financial stability of such a company allows, also provide opportunity 
to the company to demonstrate or achieve compliance with those 
requirements. The Secretary shall revoke a company's certificate of 
authority with advice to it if:
    (1) The company does not respond satisfactorily to his notification 
of noncompliance, or
    (2) The company, provided an opportunity to demonstrate or achieve 
compliance, fails to do so.

as amended at 42 FR 8637, Feb. 11, 1977]



Sec. 223.18  Performance of agency obligations.

    (a) Every company shall promptly honor its bonds naming the United 
States or one of its agencies or instrumentalities as obligee. If an 
agency's demand upon a company on behalf of the agency or laborers, 
materialmen, or suppliers (on payment bonds), for payment of a claim 
against it is not settled to the agency's satisfaction, and the agency's 
review of the situation thereafter establishes that the default is clear 
and the company's refusal to pay is not based on adequate grounds, the 
agency may make a report to the Secretary of the Treasury, including a 
copy of the subject bond, the basis for the claim against the company, a 
chronological resume of efforts to obtain payment, a statement of all 
reasons offered for non-payment, and a statement of the agency's views 
on the matter.
    (b) On receipt of such report from the Federal agency the Secretary 
will, if the circumstances warrant, notify the company concerned that 
the agency report may demonstrate that the company is not keeping and 
performing its contracts and that, in the absence of satisfactory 
explanation, the company's default may preclude the renewal of the 
company's certificate of authority, or warrant prompt revocation of the 
existing certificate. This notice will provide opportunity to the 
company to demonstrate its qualification for a continuance of the 
certificate of authority.

as amended at 42 FR 8638, Feb. 11, 1977]



Sec. 223.19  Informal hearing on agency complaints.

    (a) Request for informal hearing. If a company determines that the 
opportunity to make known its views, as provided for under 
Sec. 223.18(b), is inadequate, it may, within 20 business days of the 
date of the notice required by Sec. 223.18(b), request, in writing, that 
the Secretary of the Treasury convene an informal hearing.
    (b) Purpose. As soon as possible after a written request for an 
informal hearing is received, the Secretary of the Treasury shall 
convene an informal hearing, at such time and place as he deems 
appropriate, for the purpose of determining whether revocation of the 
company's certificate of authority is justified.
    (c) Notice. The company shall be advised, in writing, of the time 
and place of the informal hearing and shall be directed to bring all 
documents, records and other information as it may find necessary and 
relevant to substantiate its refusal to settle the claims made against 
it by the Federal agency making the report under Sec. 223.18(a).
    (d) Conduct of hearings. The hearing shall be conducted by a hearing 
officer appointed by the Secretary. The company may be represented by 
counsel and shall have a fair opportunity to present any relevant 
material and to examine the agency's evidence. Formal rules of evidence 
will not apply at the informal hearing.
    (e) Report. Within 30 days after the informal hearing, the hearing 
officer shall make a written report to the Secretary setting forth his 
findings, the basis for his findings, and his recommendations. A copy of 
the report shall be sent to the company.
[38 FR 22779, Aug. 24, 1973]



Sec. 223.20  Final decisions.

    If, after review of the case file, it is the judgment of the 
Secretary that the complaint was unfounded, the Secretary shall dismiss 
the complaint by

[[Page 66]]

the Federal agency concerned and shall so notify the company. If, 
however, it is the judgment of the Secretary that the company has not 
fulfilled its obligations to the complainant agency, he shall notify the 
company of the facts or conduct which indicate such failure and allow 
the company 20 business days from the date of such notification to 
demonstrate or achieve compliance. If no showing of compliance is made 
within the period allowed, the Secretary shall either preclude renewal

company requesting a particular category of service, e.g., determination 
of a company's continuing qualifications for annual renewal of its 
certificate of authority. However, the Treasury Department reserves the 
right to redetermine the amounts of fees annually. Fees are determined 
in accordance with Office of Management and Budget Circular A-25, as

PART 224--FEDERAL PROCESS AGENTS OF SURETY COMPANIES--Table of Contents

224.1  Statutory provision.

224.3  Powers of attorney appointing process agents; with whom filed.
224.4  Power of attorney; form.
224.5  Process agents; termination of authority.
224.6  United States district courts; location of divisional offices.

    Authority: 31 U.S.C. 9306.



Sec. 224.1  Statutory provision.

    The rules and regulations in this part are prescribed for carrying 
into effect 31 U.S.C. 9306.
[61 FR 26840, May 29, 1996]



Sec. 224.2  Appointment of process agents.

    (a) Generally. Companies should especially note that the law 
prohibits the doing of business under the provisions of this act beyond 
the State under whose laws it was incorporated and in

[[Page 67]]

which its principal office is located until an agent is appointed to 
accept Federal process on behalf of the company. An agent for the 
service of Federal process should be appointed:
    (1) In the district where the principal resides;
    (2) In the district where the obligation is to be undertaken and 
performed; and
    (3) Also in the District of Columbia where the bond is returnable 
and filed.

The appointment of process agents pursuant to a local State statute is 
not compliance with the Federal law. Although one and the same agent may 
serve under both the State and Federal appointments, he must, 
nevertheless, be especially designated to accept Federal process. It 
should also be noted that the agent so designated must reside within the 
jurisdiction of the court for the judicial district wherein such 
suretyship is to be undertaken, and must be citizen of the State, 
Territory, or District of Columbia in which such court is held. 
Consequently an agent residing in the northern district of New York 
could not at the same time serve as the company's Federal process agent 
for the southern district of that State.
    (b) Agent required in District of Columbia. Every company must, 
immediately upon receipt of its initial authority from the Secretary of 
the Treasury, appoint a suitable person resident in the District of 
Columbia on whom may be served all lawful process issued by the Federal 
Courts in said district. This appointment is required whether or not the 
company contemplates the writing of bonds in favor of the United States 
to be undertaken within the District of Columbia.
    (c) Agent not required in State of incorporation where principal 
office is located. The law does not require the appointment of Federal 
process agents for the State under whose laws the company is 
incorporated, and in which its principal office is located.
[17 FR 2605, Mar. 26, 1952]



Sec. 224.3  Powers of attorney appointing process agents; with whom filed.

    The clerk of the United States district court at the main office in 
each judicial district must be furnished with a sufficient number of 
authenticated copies of the power of attorney appointing an agent for 
the service of process to enable him to file a copy in his office, and 
at each other place where a divisional office of the court is located 
within the judicial district for which the process agent has been 
appointed. Such copies may be authenticated at the home office of the 
company by its officers duly authorized, and sworn to before an officer 
legally authorized to administer oaths. Where the charter of bylaws of 
the corporation do not confer authority on its executive officers to 
give such powers of attorney the authenticated copy filed with the clerk 
of the court must be accompanied by a certified copy of the resolution 
duly adopted by its board of directors or other governing body showing 
that the officer making the appointment had authority to do so.
[17 FR 2606, Mar. 26, 1952]



Sec. 224.4  Power of attorney; form.

    In making such appointments a power of attorney should be used 
substantially in the following form:

    Know all men by these presents, that the -------------------- a 
corporation existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of --
------------------ and having its principal office at ------------------
--, desiring to comply with section 9306 of Title 31, United States 
Code, hereby constitutes and appoints ----------, of ------------------
--, its true and lawful attorney and agent in and for the --------------
------ judicial district of --------------------, upon whom all lawful 
process in any action or proceeding against the company in said district 
may be served in like manner and with the same effect as if the company 
existed therein, and who is authorized to enter an appearance in its 
behalf.
    In witness whereof the said company, pursuant to proper authority of 
its board of directors or other governing body, has caused these 
presents to be subscribed by its ------------ president and its 
corporate seal to be affixed hereto this ------ day of ------------, 
a.d. 19--
    [Corporate Seal] --------------------------
                                                              President,
State of --------------------
    County of --------------------, ss:
    On this ------------ day of ------------, a.d. 19--, before me 
appeared --------------------, president of the -------------------- 
Company, with whom I am personally acquainted, who being duly sworn,

-------------------- Company; that he knows the corporate seal of the 
company; that the seal affixed to the foregoing instrument is such 
corporate seal; that it was affixed by order of the board of directors 
or other governing body of said company, and that he signed said 
instrument as -------------- president of said company by like 
authority.
    [Notarial Seal]

[Dept. Cir. Ltr. 4, Nov. 15, 1930, as amended at 49 FR 14340, Apr. 11, 
1984]



Sec. 224.5  Process agents; termination of authority.

    Whenever the authority of a process agent is terminated by reason of 
revocation, disability, removal from the district, or any other cause, 
it shall be the duty of the company to immediately make a new 
appointment.
[40 FR 51194, Nov. 4, 1975. Redesignated at 61 FR 26840, May 29, 1996]



Sec. 224.6  United States district courts; location of divisional offices.

    A list of the divisional offices of the court in each judicial 
district where powers of attorney should be filed may be obtained from 
the Surety Bond Branch, Financial Management Service, Department of the 
Treasury, 3700 East-West Highway, Room 6F04, Hyattsville, MD 20782.

    Source: Department Circular 154, Revised, Feb. 6, 1935, unless 
otherwise noted.



Sec. 225.1  Bond-approving officers; definition.

    The term bond-approving officers as used in this part means the head 
of an executive department or Government establishment or an officer 
designated either by law or regulation to approve penal bonds. The 
Treasury of the United States assumes no responsibility or liability on 
account of the acts of bond-approving officers. The term bond-approving 
officer shall be deemed to include the officer's successors in office.



Sec. 225.2  Bonds or notes acceptable as security; power to sell.

    Any individual, partnership, or corporation required by the laws of 
the United States or regulations made pursuant thereto to furnish any 
recognizance stipulation, bond, guaranty, or undertaking (hereinafter 
called penal bond), with surety or sureties, may, in lieu of such surety 
or sureties, deposit as security with the official having authority to 
approve such penal bond (hereinafter called the bond-approving officer), 
United States bonds, Treasury notes, or other public debt obligations of 
the United States or obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed as 
to both interest and principal by the United States (all of which 
classes of obligations are hereinafter called bonds or notes), in a sum 
equal at their par value to the amount of the penal bond required to be 
furnished, together with

[[Page 69]]

an irrevocable power of attorney and agreement in the form prescribed, 
authorizing the bond-approving officer to collect or sell, assign and 
transfer such bonds or notes so deposited in case of any default in the 
performance of any of the conditions or stipulations of such penal bond. 
The acceptance of such bonds or notes in lieu of surety or sureties 
required by law shall have the same force and effect as individual or 
corporate sureties, or certified checks, bank drafts, post-office money 
orders, or cash, for the penalty or amount of such penal bond. The term 
par value as applied in this part to bonds or notes not issued on a 
discount basis means the stated dollar amount thereof; i.e., the 
denominational amount, such as $100, $500, and $1,000; and as applied to 
bonds or notes issued on a discount basis means the dollar amount which 
the holder is entitled to receive at maturity or the next following date 
of redemption at the option of the holder, whichever amount is less. In 
order to avoid the frequent substitution of bonds or notes, bond-
approving officers will not receive a bond or note which matures or, at 
the option of the holder, may be redeemed within 30 days of the date of 
deposit; and any bond-approving officer may refuse to receive bonds or 
notes which mature or, at the option of the holder, may be redeemed 
within a year of the date of deposit, in cases where he rules that 
deposit of such bonds or notes might lead to frequent substitutions.



Sec. 225.3  Obligor must be owner; registration.

    The individual, partnership, or corporation required to furnish any 
penal bond, who deposits bonds or notes as security in lieu of surety or 
sureties in accordance with the provisions of this part, must be the 
owner of the bonds or notes deposited, and is hereinafter called the 
obligor. Bonds or notes may be deposited with bond-approving officers 
pursuant to the provisions of this part in either coupon or registered 
form. Coupon bonds or notes shall have attached thereto all coupons 
unmatured at the date of such deposit, and all matured coupons should be 
detached. Registered bonds or notes must be registered in the name of 
the obligor. They need not be assigned, and must not be assigned to the 
bond-approving officer. Bonds registered in the name of the obligor may, 
however, bear assignment in blank or to the Secretary of the Treasury 
for exchange for coupon bonds.



Sec. 225.4  Risk of loss; receipt.

    The bonds or notes to be deposited must in every case be delivered 
to the bond-approving officer at the obligor's risk and expense. Coupon 
bonds or notes and registered bonds or notes assigned in blank or for 
exchange for coupon bonds or notes cannot safely be forwarded by 
registered mail unless insured by the obligor against risk of loss in 
transit. Registered bonds or notes, unless assigned in blank or for 
exchange for coupon bonds or notes, need not be so insured when 
forwarded by registered mail, unless the obligor so elects. The bond-
approving officer shall issue a receipt in duplicate, substantially in 
Form A, for the bonds or notes so deposited, the original of the receipt 
to be given to the obligor and the duplicate to be retained by the bond-
approving officer for his files.



Sec. 225.5  Application of proceeds in case of default; forms.

    At the time of the deposit of any bonds or notes with a bond-
approving officer in accordance with the provisions of this part, the 
obligor shall deliver to the bond-approving officer a duly executed 
power of attorney and agreement, in favor of the bond-approving officer, 
authorizing such officer to collect or sell, assign, and transfer, such 
bonds or notes so deposited in case of any default in the performance of 
any of the conditions or stipulations of the penal bond, and to apply 
the proceeds of such sale or collection, in whole or in part, to the 
satisfaction of any damages, demands, or deficiency arising by reason of 
such default. The power of attorney and agreement shall not be revocable 
by the obligor; and, in the case of an individual, shall be 
substantially in Form C, in the case of a partnership, substantially in 
Form D, and in the case of a corporation, substantially in Form E.

[[Page 70]]



Sec. 225.6  Facts to be determined by bond-approving officers.

    In connection with the acceptance of bonds or notes hereunder as 
security in lieu of surety or sureties, bond-approving officers must 
satisfy themselves as to the ownership of the bonds or notes deposited 
and the sufficiency of the power of attorney and agreement, and in the 
case of registered bonds or notes, as to the regularity to the 
assignments as well, and, in general, that the deposit is made in 
conformity with the provisions of this part.



Sec. 225.7  Substitutions.

    Any obligor who deposits bonds or notes in accordance with the 
provisions of this part may upon written application to and with the 
approval of the bond-approving officer, substitute for the bonds or 
notes so deposited:
    (a) Other bonds or notes in a sum equal at their par value to not 
less than the par amount of the bonds or notes to be withdrawn, upon 
compliance with all the provisions of this part applicable to an 
original deposit of bonds or notes in lieu of surety or sureties, or
    (b) A penal bond with surety or sureties or such other security as 
may be allowed by law. The bonds or notes withdrawn shall be returned in 
the manner hereinafter provided for the return of bonds and notes 
deposited.



Sec. 225.8  Authorized depositaries; withdrawal.

    Bonds or notes deposited with bond-approving officers as security in 
accordance with the provisions of this part and such other bonds or 
notes as may be substituted therefor from time to time as such security, 
may be deposited by bond-approving officers with a Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch having the requisite facilities, or other depository duly 
designated for that purpose by the Secretary of the Treasury.

Provided, however, That bond-approving officers shall deposit with the 
United States Treasury all bonds or notes received by them in the 
District of Columbia pursuant to the provisions of this part. 
Depositaries of public moneys are not authorized to act as depositaries 
for bonds or notes accepted under this part, unless specifically 
designated for that purpose by the Secretary of the Treasury. Any 
authorized depositary receiving deposits of bonds or notes from bond-
approving officers in accordance with this part shall give receipt 
therefor in duplicate, describing the bonds or notes so deposited, 
substantially in Form B, the original to be delivered to the bond-
approving officer and the duplicate to be retained by the depositary for 
its own files. The bond-approving officer will hold the original receipt 
subject to the instructions of his administrative superior. Bonds or 
notes so deposited with an authorized depositary may be withdrawn only 
by or on the written order of the bond-approving officer. Bonds or notes 
accepted by or on behalf of any United States court, under this part may 
also be deposited as aforesaid under a duly authenticated order of the 
court, and bonds or notes so deposited may be withdrawn only by or on 
the duly authenticated order of such court.
[Dept. Circ. 154, Feb. 6, 1935, as amended at 39 FR 32911, Sept. 12, 
1974]



Sec. 225.9  Risk of loss or destruction.

    Bonds or notes accepted by bond-approving officers from obligors 
under this part and not deposited by them with authorized depositaries, 
will be held at the risk of the respective bond-approving officers, 
subject to such regulations and instructions as may be prescribed for 
their guidance by their respective administrative superiors. Coupon 
bonds or notes and registered bonds or notes assigned in blank or for 
exchange for coupon bonds or notes are in effect bearer obligations and 
must be kept in safe custody; registered bonds or notes not assigned in 
blank or for exchange for coupon bonds or notes must also be kept in 
safe custody, but in the event of loss or destruction may be replaced 
upon compliance with the provisions of law and the regulations of the 
Treasury Department applicable thereto.



Sec. 225.10  Delivery to the depositary.

    Bond-approving officers desiring to deposit bonds or notes received 
by them with authorized depositaries must deliver such bonds or notes to 
the depositary, without risk or expense to the depositary. Coupon bonds 
or notes

[[Page 71]]

and registered bonds or notes assigned in blank or for exchange for 
coupon bonds or notes cannot safely be shipped by registered mail unless 
covered by insurance. Registered bonds or notes not assigned in blank or 
for exchange for coupon bonds or notes may be forwarded by registered 
mail uninsured.



Sec. 225.11  Payment of interest to obligor; coupons.

    The obligor shall be entitled to receive the interest accruing upon 
bonds or notes deposited in accordance with this part, in the absence of 
any default in the performance of any of the conditions or stipulations 
of the penal bond. The interest on any registered bonds or notes which 
the obligor is entitled to receive hereunder will be paid by check in 
regular course to the registered holder. The coupons for any interest on 
coupon bonds or notes which the obligor is entitled to receive hereunder 
will, upon written application from the obligor to the bond-approving 
officer, be detached, as they mature, from the bonds or notes deposited 
and forwarded to the obligor at the obligor's risk and expense, either 
by the bond-approving officer or upon his written order by the 
depositary with which the bonds or notes may be deposited, or, at the 
direction of the bond-approving officer, collected by the depositary and 
check therefor forwarded to the obligor. In the absence of written 
application therefor by the obligor, coupons for interest on coupon 
bonds or notes to which the obligor may be entitled under this part 
shall remain attached to the bonds or notes deposited, subject to the 
provisions of this part.



Sec. 225.12  Return to obligor of security.

    (a) Generally. As soon as security for the performance of the penal 
bond is no longer necessary, the bonds or notes deposited in lieu of 
surety or sureties on such penal bond, together with the power of 
attorney and agreement accompanying such bonds or notes, shall be 
returned to the obligor by the bond-approving officer, without 
application therefor from the obligor. The determination of the question 
whether security is any longer necessary for the performance of the 
penal bond shall rest with the bond-approving officer.
    (b) Miller Act payment bonds. If a person who supplied labor or 
material to a contractor, required by the Miller Act, as amended (40 
U.S.C. 270a-d), to give a payment bond to the United States, files with 
the Comptroller General the application and affidavit provided for in 
that Act after a default in the performance of a contract covered by 
that Act, the bond-approving officer shall not return to the contractor-
obligor the deposited bonds, notes or any surplus proceeds thereof until 
the expiration of the time within which such a person may commence suit 
on the payment bond as provided in the Act, i.e., 1 year after the day 
on which the last of the labor was performed or material supplied by 
that person. If suit is instituted within that time, the bond-approving 
officer shall hold such bonds, notes or proceeds subject to the order of 
the court having jurisdiction of the suit. If suit is not instituted 
within that time but the bond-approving officer is on notice of a claim 
against the contractor-obligor on the basis of his payment bond, the 
bond-approving officer shall determine the time at which, and the 
evidence of settlement of the claim upon which, he will release the 
bonds, notes or proceeds.
    (c) Claim of United States unaffected. Nothing in this section shall 
affect or impair the priority of any claim of the United States against 
bonds or notes deposited, or any right or remedy granted by the Miller 
Act or by this part to the United States for default upon any obligation 
of a penal bond.
[34 FR 17953, Nov. 6, 1969]



Sec. 225.13  Return to obligor; risk of loss.

    Bonds or notes to be returned to the obligor will be forwarded at 
the obligor's risk and expense, either by the bond-approving officer, or 
upon his written order by the depositary with which the bonds or notes 
may be deposited, and unless delivered direct to the obligor, will be 
forwarded, in the absence of other written instructions and remittance 
to cover expenses, by express, collect, except that registered bonds or 
notes not assigned in blank or for exchange for coupon bonds or notes 
may be forwarded by registered mail, uninsured.

[[Page 72]]



Sec. 225.14  Withdrawal.

    Any obligor who desires to withdraw a portion only of the bonds or 
notes deposited, by reason of reduction in liability under the penal 
bond, shall make written application for such withdrawal to the bond-
approving officer, who shall, if he approve such application, return 
such portion of the bonds or notes to the obligor.



Sec. 225.15  Receipt for return.

    Upon the complete or partial return to the obligor of bonds or notes 
deposited as security under the provisions of this part, the bond-
approving officer shall require from the obligor a receipt in duplicate, 
substantially in Form G, and shall further require the obligor, in case 
of complete return, to surrender the original receipt on Form A.



Sec. 225.16  Penal bonds; form to be used with bonds or notes as security.

    Penal bonds on which bonds or notes are accepted as security in lieu 
of surety or sureties may be substantially in Form F. Administrative 
officers of the Government may, however, use other forms of penal bonds 
appropriate to the work of their respective offices: Provided, That upon 
the execution of the penal bond the principal shall indorse on the face 
thereof and sign the following statement:

    The securities described in the annexed schedule are hereby pledged 
as security for the performance and fulfillment of the foregoing 
undertaking in accordance with 6 U.S.C. 15, and 31 CFR part 225.

                                        --------------------------------

Sec. 225.17  Penal bonds; existing practice or duties of administrative offices in handling not modified.

    Nothing contained in this part shall be construed as modifying the 
existing practice or duties of administrative offices in handling penal 
bonds, except to the extent made necessary under the terms of this part 
by reason of the acceptance of bonds or notes as security in lieu of 
surety or sureties thereon.



Sec. 225.20  All Government bond-approving officers governed by the provisions of this part.

    Bond-approving officers of other departments and establishments of 
the Government accepting bonds or notes in lieu of surety or sureties

of this part. This part may be modified or amended only upon the 
approval of the Secretary of the Treasury.

proceedings, or the authority of any administrative officer of the 
United States to receive United States bonds or notes for security in 
cases authorized by provisions of law other than 6 U.S.C. 15.

Sec. 226.1  Scope.

    The regulations in this part apply to insurance covering public 
money of the United States held by banks, savings banks, savings and 
loan associations, building and loan associations, homestead 
associations, or credit unions designated as Treasury tax and loan 
depositaries under 31 CFR part 203. Approval of the adequacy of the 
insurance coverage provided to Treasury tax and loan funds shall be 
governed by the regulations contained herein, which will be supplemented 
by guidelines issued by the Treasury and updated from time to time to 
meet changing conditions in the industry.



Sec. 226.2  General.

    (a) Deposit or account insurance provided by the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Corporation, the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance 
Corporation, and the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, is 
hereby recognized. Deposits or accounts which are insured by a State or 
agency thereof, or by a corporation chartered by a State for the sole 
purpose of insuring deposits or accounts of financial institutions 
eligible to be Treasury tax and loan depositaries (hereinafter referred 
to as Insurance Arrangement), shall be approved as provided herein. Such 
approval constitutes recognition for the purpose of reducing the amount 
of collateral required of a tax and loan depositary by the amount of 
recognized insurance coverage pursuant to 31 CFR 203.15.
    (b) Generally, these regulations and their associated guidelines 
require that an organization providing insurance maintain a corpus of 
sufficient value and liquidity, and/or that it have sufficient State 
borrowing authority, in relation to its liabilities and total insured 
savings (or deposits) to provide adequate security to the Government's 
deposits and that adequate monitoring of the financial condition of the 
insured institutions is conducted.



Sec. 226.3  Application--termination.

    (a) Every Insurance Organization applying for recognition as a 
qualified insurer of financial institutions designated as Treasury tax 
and loan depositaries shall address a written request to the Assistant 
Commissioner, Comptroller, Financial Management Service, Department of 
the Treasury, Washington, DC 20226, who will notify the applicant of the 
data which is necessary to make application. If the Secretary of the 
Treasury is satisfied that:
    (1) One or more institutions insured by the applicant otherwise meet 
the Secretary's requirements for designation as a Treasury tax and loan 
depositary or Federal tax depositary,
    (2) The insurance provided by the applicant covers public money of 
the United States, and
    (3) The insurance coverage provided affords adequate security to the 
Government's deposits, the Secretary shall recognize the applicant as a 
qualified insurer of financial institutions designated as Treasury tax 
and loan depositaries.
    (b) If and when the Secretary of the Treasury determines that a 
qualified insurance organization's financial condition is such that it 
no longer provides adequate security or that it is not complying with 
the regulations of this part, the Secretary will notify the Insurance 
Organization of the facts or conduct which cause him to make such 
determination, and in those cases where the safety of the Government's 
funds allows, provide the Insurance Organization with an opportunity to 
correct the deficiency. When any deficiency has not been corrected to 
his satisfaction or, where the safety of Government funds makes 
immediate revocation imperative, the Secretary will revoke the 
recognition previously granted.

    Note: For a delegation of authority to perform the functions 
described in Secs. 226.3 and 226.4, see 44 FR 19406 of the Federal 
Register of April 3, 1979.

FR 47002, Nov. 30, 1984]



Sec. 226.4  Adequacy of security--how computed.

    (a) In qualifying Insurance Organizations, the Treasury will use a 
ratio (equity (net worth) of the insurance organization divided by 
insured accounts or deposits) to determine if the security is

[[Page 74]]

adequate. The ratio will be computed as determined by the Treasury, and 
is required to equal 0.0045 or greater for an Insurance Organization to 
be recognized (i.e., net worth is required to equal 0.45 of 1 percent of 
insured accounts or deposits).
    (b) If, in the judgment of the Secretary of the Treasury, any of the 
Insurance Organization's assets which cannot be liquidated promptly or 
are subject to restriction, encumbrance, or discredit, all or part of 
the value of such assets may be deducted from equity in making the 
computation. The Secretary of the Treasury may value the assets and 
liabilities in his discretion.
    (c) An Insurance Organization's unqualified borrowing authority from 
its sponsoring State will be added to its equity in making the 
computation because such authority is equivalent to additional 
capitalization. An Insurance Organization's commercial borrowing 
authority and its reinsurance will be disregarded in making the 
computation, because these are not adequate substitutes for 
undercapitalization.

    Note: For a delegation of authority to perform the functions 
described in Secs. 226.3 and 226.4, see 44 FR 19406 of the Federal 
Register of April 3, 1979.

[43 FR 18972, May 2, 1978, as amended at 44 FR 19406, Apr. 3, 1979]



Sec. 226.5  Examinations.

    (a) Examinations by State regulatory authorities or audits by CPA 
firms of Insurance Organizations shall be performed in accordance with, 
and at intervals prescribed by, State regulatory procedures. Copies of 
the reports shall be submitted to the Treasury.
    (b) Examinations by State regulatory authorities or audits by CPA 
firms of insured financial institutions shall be performed in accordance 
with, and at intervals prescribed by, State regulatory procedures. In 
addition, an adequate monitoring system shall be employed to detect 
those institutions with financial problems.



Sec. 226.6  Financial reports.

    Financial reports of Insurance Organizations shall be submitted to 
the Treasury at the same intervals they are submitted to State 
regulatory authorities. However, they need not be submitted more 
frequently than quarterly but, as a minimum, shall be submitted 
annually. The Treasury may prescribe the format of such reports.



Sec. 226.7  Effective date.

    The provisions of this part become effective November 2, 1978.

    (3) A missing indorsement where the depositary bank had no authority 
to supply the indorsement.



Sec. 240.3  Limitations on payment.

    (a) As a general rule,
    (1) The Commissioner shall not be required to pay a Treasury check 
issued on or after October 1, 1989 unless it is negotiated to a 
financial institution within 12 months after the date on which the check 
was issued; and
    (2) The Commissioner shall not be required to pay a Treasury check

institution no later than October 1, 1990.
    (b) All checks drawn on the United States Treasury and issued on or

Commissioner shall provide to each agency that authorizes the issuance

were cancelled during the preceding month pursuant to paragraph (a) of 
this section.

Sec. 240.5  Guaranty of indorsements.

    The presenting bank and the indorsers of a check presented to the 
Treasury for payment are deemed to guarantee to the Treasury that all 
prior indorsements are genuine, whether or not an express guaranty is 
placed on the check. When the first indorsement has been made by one 
other than the payee personally, the presenting bank and the indorsers 
are deemed to guarantee the Treasury, in addition to other warranties, 
that the person who so indorsed had unqualified capacity and authority 
to indorse the check on behalf of the payee.



Sec. 240.6  Reclamation of amounts of paid checks.

    (a) If, after a check has been paid by Treasury, it is found to:
    (1) Bear a forged or unauthorized indorsement; or
    (2) Contain any other material defect or alteration which was not 
discovered upon first examination, then, upon demand by the Treasury in 
accordance with the procedures specified in Sec. 240.7 of this part, the 
presenting bank or other indorser shall refund the amount of the check 
payment.
    (b) Interest on any unpaid item shall commence to accrue on the 
sixty-first day after the reclamation date. Interest shall be calculated 
at the rate set from time to time for purposes of 31 U.S.C. 323. 
Interest shall continue to accrue until the amount demanded is paid or 
the reclamation is abandoned by Treasury.
    (c) In addition to its right to recover interest, Treasury shall 
have the right to recover such other applicable charges (e.g., 
administrative collection costs, late payment penalties) as may be 
authorized or required by law.
    (d) If the Treasury determines that a check has been paid over a 
forged or unauthorized indorsement, the Commissioner may reclaim the 
amount of the check from the presenting bank or any other indorser that 
breached its guarantee of indorsement prior to:
    (1) The end of the one-year period beginning on the date of payment; 
or
    (2) The expiration of the 180-day period beginning on the close of 
the period described in paragraph (d)(1) of this section if a timely 
claim under 31 U.S.C. 3702 is presented to the agency which authorized 
the issuance of the check.



Sec. 240.7  Demand and protest.

    (a) For all reclamations an initial demand for refund of the amount 
of a check payment will be made by sending a ``Request for Refund 
(Reclamation),'' to the presenting bank or any other indorser. This 
Request shall advise the presenting bank of the amount demanded and the 
reason for the demand. Treasury will make follow-up demands by including 
each unpaid item on at least three monthly interest billing statements 
sent to the presenting bank. Monthly interest billing statements will 
identify any unpaid reclamation demands and will also show the amount of 
any accrued interest for each outstanding reclamation. Any discrepancies 
should be brought to Treasury's attention immediately at the address 
listed in paragraph (b) of this section. Monthly interest billing 
statements will contain or be accompanied by notice to the bank:
    (1) That Treasury intends to collect the debt through administrative 
offset if the reclamation is not paid within 120 days of the reclamation 
date;
    (2) That the bank has an opportunity to inspect and copy Treasury's 
records with respect to the reclamation;
    (3) That the bank may, by filing a protest, request Treasury to 
review its

[[Page 78]]

decision that the bank is liable for the reclamation; and
    (4) That the bank has an opportunity to enter into a written 
agreement with Treasury for the repayment of the amount of the 
reclamation. A request for a payment agreement must be accompanied by 
proof that satisfies the Treasury that the requesting bank is unable to 
repay the entire amount owed at the time that it is due.
    (b) Requests for an appointment to inspect and copy Treasury's 
records with respect to a reclamation and requests to enter into 
repayment agreements should be sent in writing to: Department of the 
Treasury, Financial Management Service, Operations Division, Reclamation 
Branch, Room 700-D, 3700 East-West Highway, Hyattsville, MD 20782.
    (c)(1) If a presenting bank wishes to contest its liability for the 
principal amount demanded, it shall send a protest, i.e., a written 
statement and copies of all documentary evidence (e.g., affidavits, 
account agreements, signature cards) and other written information 
raising a question of law or fact which, if resolved in the bank's 
favor, would show that the bank is not liable, to: Department of the 
Treasury, Financial Management Service, Operations Division, Reclamation 
Branch Room 700-D, 3700 East-West Highway, Hyattsville, MD 20782.

The Director, Operations Division, who has supervisory authority over 
the Reclamation Branch, or his authorized subordinate, shall consider 
and decide any protest properly submitted under this paragraph. Neither 
the Director, Operations Division, nor any of his subordinates, shall 
have any involvement in the process of making findings or demands under 
Sec. 240.6(a). In order to be considered, and to be timely, a protest 
must be received not later than 90 days after the reclamation date. 
Treasury will refrain from collection in accordance with Sec. 240.8 
while a timely protest is being considered. Unresolved protested items 
will be appropriately annotated on the monthly interest billing 
statement.
    (2) If Treasury accepts the protest, the presenting bank shall be 
notified in writing that efforts to collect the item and any accrued 
interest have been abandoned.
    (3) If the evidence sent by the presenting bank does not satisfy 
Treasury that refund of the amount demanded is not required under 
Sec. 240.6(a), Treasury will notify the presenting bank in writing of 
its decision that the bank is liable for the amount demanded and the 
reasons for its decision. If the presenting bank fails to send the 
amount demanded within 30 days of the date of Treasury's decision, 
Treasury shall proceed to collect the amount owed in accordance with 
Sec. 240.8, provided that no offset shall be taken sooner than 120 days 
after the reclamation date.
    (4) If an item, and/or accrued interest relating to that item 
remains unpaid for 90 days after the reclamation date and if there is no 
unresolved protest associated with the item, the monthly interest 
billing statement will be annotated with a notice that the presenting 
bank has until the next billing date to make payment on the item or be 
subject to offset thereon.



Sec. 240.8  Offset.

    (a) If an item, and/or accrued interest relating to that item, 
remains unpaid for 120 days after the reclamation date and the 
presenting bank has been sent at least one monthly interest billing 
statement informing it that Treasury intends to collect that item by 
offset, Treasury may refer the matter to any Federal agency and request 
that agency to offset the indebtedness and other applicable charges 
against amounts otherwise owed by the Federal agency to the presenting 
bank. Monthly interest billing statements will be annotated to identify 
those specific items that are to be referred to an agency for offset.
    (b) If a bank wishes to make payment on an item referred to an 
agency for offset, it should contact Treasury at the address listed in 
Sec. 240.7(b) to reduce the possibility of a double collection. If an 
agency to which an indebtedness is referred in accordance with this 
paragraph is unable to effect offset in whole or in part, Treasury may 
then refer the debt to any other agency and request offset in accordance 
with this paragraph. Treasury designates each agency acting under this 
paragraph as its

[[Page 79]]

designee for the sole purpose of effecting offset. No such designee 
shall be liable to any party for any loss resulting from its action 
under this paragraph.
    (c) If Treasury is unable to collect an amount owed by use of the 
offset described in paragraph (a) of this section, Treasury shall take 
such action against the presenting bank as may be necessary to protect 
the interests of the United States, including referral to the Department 
of Justice.
    (d) If Treasury effects offset under this section and it is later 
determined that the presenting bank paid the amount of the reclamation 
and accrued interest thereon, or that a presenting bank which had timely 
filed a protest was not liable for the amount of the reclamation, 
Treasury shall promptly refund to the presenting bank the amount of its 
payment.



Sec. 240.9  Processing of checks.

    (a) Federal Reserve Banks. (1) Federal Reserve Banks shall cash 
checks for Government disbursing officers when such checks are drawn by 
the disbursing officers to their own order. Payment of such checks shall 
not be refused except for alteration or counterfeiting of the check, or 
forged signature of the drawer.
    (2) Federal Reserve Banks shall not be expected to cash Government 
checks presented directly to them by the general public.
    (3) As a depository of public funds, each Federal Reserve Bank 
shall:
    (i) Receive checks from its member banks, nonmember clearing banks, 
or other depositors, when indorsed by such banks or depositors who 
guarantee all prior indorsements thereon;
    (ii) Give immediate credit therefore in accordance with their 
current Time Schedules and charge the amount of the checks cashed or 
otherwise received to the account of the Treasury, subject to 
examination and payment by the United States Treasury;
    (iii) Forward payment records and copies of checks to Treasury; and
    (iv) Release the original checks to a designated Federal Records 
Center upon notification from Treasury. The Treasury shall return to the 
forwarding Federal Reserve Bank a photocopy of any check the payment of 
which is refused upon first examination. Federal Reserve Banks shall 
give immediate credit therefor in the United States Treasury's account, 
thereby reversing the previous charge to the account for such check. The 
Treasury authorizes each Federal Reserve Bank to release the original 
check to the endorser when payment is refused in accordance with 
Sec. 240.3(a).
    (b) Depositaries outside of the mainland of the United States. Banks 
outside of the mainland of the United States designated as depositaries 
of public money and permitted to charge checks to the General Account of 
the United States Treasury shall be governed by the operating 
instructions contained in the letter of authorization to them from 
Treasury and shall assume the obligations of presenting banks set forth 
in Secs. 240.5 and 240.6. Checks charged to the General Account of the 
United States Treasury along with the supporting credit voucher shall be 
shipped to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. The Treasury shall 
return to the presenting depositary bank a photocopy of any check the 
payment of which is refused upon first examination. The depositary bank 
shall give immediate credit therefor in the General Account of the 
United States Treasury, thereby reversing the previous charge to the 
Account for such check. Treasury authorizes the Federal Reserve Bank of 
Richmond to return to the presenting depositary bank the original check 
when payment is refused in accordance with Sec. 240.3(a).



Sec. 240.10  Release of original checks.

    An original check may be released to a responsible indorser upon 
receipt of a properly authorized request showing the reason it is 
required and that the request is in conformity with all applicable law 
including the Privacy Act.

                          Indorsement of Checks



Sec. 240.11  Indorsement by payees.

    (a) General requirements. Checks shall be indorsed by the payee or 
payees named, or by another on behalf of such payees as set forth in 
this part.
    (b) Checks indorsed by the payee or payees named. When a check is 
indorsed

[[Page 80]]

by the payee or payees named, the forms of indorsement shall conform to 
those recognized by general principles of law and commercial usage for 
negotiation, transfer or collection of negotiable instruments.
    (c) Checks indorsed by another on behalf of the named payee or 
payees--(1) Acceptable indorsement. The only acceptable indorsement of a 
check by another on behalf of the named payee or payees (except when a 
check is indorsed by a financial institution under the payee's or 
payees' authorization) is one which indicates that the person indorsing 
is doing so on behalf of the named payee or payees. Such an acceptable 
indorsement shall include the signature of the indorser and sufficient 
wording to indicate that the indorser is indorsing on behalf of the 
named payee or payees, pursuant to authority expressly conferred by or 
under law or other regulation. An example would be: ``John Jones by Mary 
Jones.'' This example states the minimum indication acceptable. However, 
Secs. 240.12(a)(1), 240.13(a)(1), and 240.15(d) specify the addition of 
an indication in specified situations of the actual capacity in which 
the person other than the named payee is indorsing. Checks indorsed 
``for collection'' or ``for deposit only to the credit of the within 
named payee or payees,'' are acceptable without any signature. However, 
in the absence of a signature, the presenting bank will be deemed to 
guarantee its good title to such checks to all subsequent indorsers and 
to Treasury.
    (2) Unacceptable indorsement. The indorsement by another on behalf 
of the named payee or payees, which consists of the name(s) of the 
payee(s), whether as purported signature(s) or otherwise, and not the 
signature of the person other than named payee or payees indorsing the 
check, regardless of the relationship between the indorser and the named 
payee or payees, will be rebuttably presumed to be a forgery and is 
unacceptable. The indorsement by a person who purports to indorse for 
the named payee(s) with an indorsement consisting of the name(s) of the 
payee(s), whether as purported signature(s) or otherwise, and the 
indorsing person's signature and no indication of the indorsing person's 
representative capacity, will create a rebuttable presumption that the 
indorsing person was not authorized to indorse for the named payee(s). 
In these circumstances it is the responsibility of the individual or 
institution accepting a check from a person other than the named 
payee(s) to determine that such person is authorized and has the 
capacity to indorse and negotiate the check. Evidence of the basis for 
such a determination may be required by the Treasury in the event of a 
dispute.
    (d) Indorsement of checks by a financial institution under the 
payee's authorization. When a check is credited by a financial 
institution to the payee's account under the payee's or payees' 
authorization, the financial institution may use an indorsement 
substantially as follows: ``Credit to the account of the within-named 
payee in accordance with the payee's or payees' instructions. XYZ.'' A 
financial institution using this form of indorsement will be deemed to 
guarantee to all subsequent indorsers and to the Treasury that it is 
acting as an attorney-in-fact for the payee or payees, under the payee's 
or payees' authorization, and that this authority is currently in force 
and has neither lapsed nor been revoked either in fact or by the death 
or incapacity of the payee or payees.
    (e) Indorsement of checks drawn in favor of financial institutions. 
All checks drawn in favor of financial institutions, for credit to the 
accounts of persons designated payment so to be made, shall be indorsed 
in the name of the financial institutions as payee in the usual manner. 
Financial institutions receiving and indorsing such checks shall comply 
fully with part 209 of this chapter.
    (f) Social Security benefit checks issued jointly to individuals of 
the same family. A social security benefit check issued jointly to 2 or 
more individuals of the same family shall, upon the death of 1 of the 
joint payees prior to the negotiation of such check, be returned to the 
Social Security District Office or the Treasury Regional Financial 
Center. Payment of the check to the surviving payee or payees may be 
authorized by placing on the face of the check a stamped legend signed 
by an official of the Social Security Administration or

[[Page 81]]

the Treasury Regional Financial Center, redesignating such survivor or 
survivors as the payee or payees of the check. A check bearing such 
stamped legend, signed as herein prescribed, may be indorsed and 
negotiated by the person or persons named as if such check originally 
had been drawn payable to such person or persons.



Sec. 240.12  Checks issued to incompetent payees.

    (a) Classes of checks which may be indorsed by guardian or 
fiduciary. Where the payee of a check of any class listed in 
Sec. 240.13(a) has been declared incompetent:
    (1) If a check is indorsed by a legal guardian or other fiduciary, 
such legal guardian or fiduciary shall include, as a part of the 
indorsement, an indication of the capacity in which the legal guardian 
or fiduciary is indorsing. An example would be: ``John Jones by Mary 
Jones, guardian of John Jones.'' When a check indorsed in this fashion 
is presented for payment by a bank, it will be paid by the Treasury 
without submission to the Treasury of documentary proof of the authority 
of the guardian or other fiduciary, with the understanding that evidence 
of such claimed authority to indorse may be required by the Treasury in 
the event of a dispute.
    (2) If a guardian has not been or will not be appointed, and if the 
check:
    (i) Was issued in payment of goods and services, tax refunds or 
redemption of currency, it shall be forwarded for advice to the 
certifying agency; or
    (ii) Was issued in payment of principal or interest on U.S. 
securities, it shall be forwarded to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Division of Securities Accounts, Accounts Maintenance Branch, 
Washington, DC 20239.
    (b) Classes of checks which may not be indorsed by guardian or 
fiduciary. Where the payee of a check of any other class has been 
declared incompetent, the check shall not be indorsed by a guardian or 
other fiduciary. The check shall be returned to the Government agency 
which certified the payment, with information as to the incompetency of 
the payee and submission of documentary evidence showing the appointment 
of the guardian or other explanation in order that a replacement check, 
and others to be issued subsequently, may be drawn in favor of the 
guardian.
[54 FR 35642, Aug. 29, 1989, as amended at 54 FR 46728, Nov. 7, 1989]



Sec. 240.13  Checks issued to deceased payees.

    (a)(1) Classes of checks which may be indorsed by an executor or 
administrator. Checks issued for the classes of payments indicated 
below, the right to which under law does not terminate with the death of 
the payee, when indorsed by an executor or administrator, shall include, 
as part of the indorsement, an indication of the capacity in which the 
executor or administrator is indorsing. An example would be: ``John 
Jones by Mary Jones, executor of the estate of John Jones.'' Such 
checks, when presented for payment by a bank, will be paid by the 
Treasury without the submission of documentary proof of the authority of 
the executor or administrator, with the understanding that evidence of 
such claimed authority to indorse may be required by the Treasury in the 
event of a dispute. The classes of payments to which this subsection 
refers are:
    (i) Payments for the redemption of currencies or for principal or 
interest on U.S. securities;
    (ii) Payments for tax refunds; and
    (iii) Payments for goods and services.
    (2) If an executor has not been appointed, persons claiming as 
owners shall return the checks for appropriate handling to the 
Government agency that certified the payment. If there is doubt as to 
whether the proceeds of the check or checks pass to the estate of the 
deceased payee, the checks shall be handled in accordance with paragraph 
(b) of this section.
    (b) Classes of checks which may not be indorsed by an executor or 
administrator. Checks issued for classes of payment other than those 
specified in paragraph (a) of this section may not be negotiated after 
the death of the payee, but must be returned to the Government agency 
that certified the payment for determination whether, under applicable 
laws, payment is due and to whom it may be made.

[[Page 82]]



Sec. 240.14  Checks issued to minor payees in certain cases.

    Checks issued to minors in payment of principal or interest on U.S. 
securities may be indorsed by either parent with whom the minor resides, 
or, if the minor does not reside with either parent, by the person who 
furnishes his chief support. The parent or other person indorsing in 
behalf of the minor shall present with the check his signed statement 
giving the minor's age, stating that the payee either resides with the 
parent or receives his chief support from the person indorsing in his 
behalf, and that the proceeds of the checks will be used for the minor's 
benefit.



Sec. 240.15  Powers of attorney.

    (a) Specific powers of attorney. Any check may be negotiated under a 
specific power of attorney executed after the issuance of the check and 
describing it in full.
    (b) General powers of attorney. Checks issued for the following 
classes of payments may be negotiated under a general power of attorney 
in favor of an individual, financial institution or other entity:
    (1) Payments for the redemption of currencies or for principal or 
interest on U.S. securities.
    (2) Payments for tax refunds, but subject to the limitations 
concerning the mailing of Internal Revenue refund checks contained in 26 
CFR 601.506(b).
    (3) Payments for goods and services.
    (c) Special powers of attorney. Under discussions of the Comptroller 
General of the United States, classes of checks other than those 
specified in paragraph (b) of this section may be negotiated under a 
special power of attorney which names a financial institution as 
attorney-in-fact, and recites that it is not given to carry into effect 
an assignment of the right to receive payment, either to the attorney-
in-fact or to any other person.
    (d) Proof of authority. Checks indorsed by an attorney-in-fact shall 
include, as part of the indorsement, an indication of the capacity in 
which the attorney-in-fact is indorsing. An example would be: ``John 
Jones by Paul Smith, attorney-in-fact for John Jones.'' Such checks when 
presented for payment by a bank, will be paid by the Treasury without 
the submission of documentary proof of the claimed authority, with the 
understanding that evidence of such claimed authority to indorse may be 
required by the Treasury in the event of a dispute.
    (e) Revocation of powers of attorney. Powers of attorney are revoked 
by the death of the grantor and may also be revoked by notice from the 
grantor to the parties known, or reasonably expected, to be acting on 
the power of attorney. Notice of revocation to the Treasury will not 
ordinarily serve to revoke the power.
    (f) Acknowledgment of powers of attorney. Where desirable or where 
required by foreign, state or local law, powers of attorney shall be 
acknowledged before a notary public or other officer authorized by law 
to administer oaths generally.
    (g) Seal or certificate of attesting officers. Where acknowledgment 
of powers of attorney is desirable or required pursuant to paragraph (f) 
of this section, seals of attesting officers shall be impressed or 
stamped upon the power of attorney form, or the power of attorney shall 
be accompanied by a certificate from an appropriate official showing 
that the officer was in commission on the date of acknowledgment.
    (h) Forms. Power of attorney forms issued under this part are listed 
in the appendix to this part. They may be obtained from the Financial 
Management Service, Property and Supply Section, Ardmore East Business 
Center, 3361-L 75th Avenue, Landover, MD 20785.

Sec. 247.1  Applicability.

    The regulations in this part prescribe the rights and liabilities of 
the United States, the Federal Reserve Banks, banks, and others on 
FedSelect checks. These regulations apply to FedSelect checks issued on 
behalf of the United States for payments in connection with United 
States obligations. FedSelect checks are issued by Federal agencies on 
Federal Reserve Bank check stock. FedSelect checks are drawn on the 
payor Federal Reserve Bank in its banking capacity. The drawer of a 
FedSelect check is the United States; the drawee is a Federal Reserve 
Bank. Therefore, a FedSelect check shall not be deemed to be drawn on 
the United States nor shall the Federal Reserve Bank be deemed its 
drawer.

[[Page 85]]



Sec. 247.2  Governing law.

    Except as otherwise provided by statute or this part, the 
regulations governing checks drawn on the United States or on designated 
depositaries of the United States (e.g., 31 CFR parts 235, 240, 245, and 
248) are inapplicable to FedSelect checks. As to definitions and other 
matters not specifically covered in this part, FedSelect checks are 
governed by Regulation J of the Board of Governors of the Federal 
Reserve System, 12 CFR part 210 (``Regulation J''), Regulation CC of the 
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 12 CFR part 229 
(``Regulation CC''), and to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with 
this part, with Regulation J, and with Regulation CC, FedSelect checks 
will be governed by the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by Illinois 
(``UCC''), as all three may from time to time be revised. Such matters 
include, but are not limited to, rules regarding general presentment and 
transfer warranties, indorsement, and final payment.



Sec. 247.3  Definitions.

    For the purpose of this part:
    Agency means a department, agency, or instrumentality in the 
executive branch of the United States Government.
    Bank means an entity described in Regulation CC of the Federal 
Reserve System, 12 CFR 229.2(e), as may be amended from time to time.
    Department means the United States Department of the Treasury.
    FedSelect check means a check drawn upon a Reserve Bank with the 
designation ``FedSelect'' printed on the check.
    Payee means the person to whom a FedSelect check is payable.
    Payor Reserve Bank means the Reserve Bank on which a FedSelect check 
is drawn.
    Presenting bank means a bank which sends a FedSelect check directly 
to a Reserve Bank for payment or collection.
    Reserve Bank or Federal Reserve Bank means any one of the twelve 
Federal Reserve Banks.



Sec. 247.4  Federal Reserve Banks.

    (a) Where FedSelect checks are issued on Reserve Bank check stock 
and drawn on the payor Reserve Bank in its banking capacity, the payor 
Reserve Bank shall perform certain functions as fiscal agent of the 
United States in the issuing, processing and final payment of FedSelect 
checks. A payor Reserve Bank shall act as fiscal agent of the United 
States on FedSelect checks only when authorized to do so by a Memorandum 
of Understanding between the Financial Management Service, U.S. 
Department of the Treasury (FMS), and the payor Reserve Bank.
    (b) As authorized by a Memorandum of Understanding between a payor 
Reserve Bank and the FMS and in accordance with this part, the payor 
Reserve Bank shall settle with a presenting bank for the amount 
specified in a FedSelect check upon presentment of the FedSelect check 
through normal banking channels. Each payor Reserve Bank may issue 
operating circulars, letters or bulletins not inconsistent with this 
part governing details of its handling of payments under this part.



Sec. 247.5  Federal agencies and termination of services.

    (a) Agencies may issue FedSelect checks in payment for United States 
obligations.
    (b) Issuance of a FedSelect check by an agency in payment of an 
obligation shall constitute an agreement between the issuing agency and 
the FMS. The issuing agency shall adhere to the terms of the agreement, 
including those relating to fees for services provided by the FMS, as 
expressed in this part and in the Treasury Financial Manual, Volume I, 
Part 4, Chapter 3500 (I TFM 4-3500), entitled ``Issuance Of FedSelect 
Checks By Federal Agencies.''
    (c) In addition to the provisions of this part, agencies issuing 
FedSelect checks shall adhere to instructions, contained in I TFM 4-
3500, regarding items such as procedures for opening and closing 
FedSelect accounts with the FMS, procedures for the adjustment of agency 
FedSelect accounts where losses are the responsibility of the agency, 
procedures for the adjustment of agency FedSelect accounts in

[[Page 86]]

cases of termination of FedSelect services by the FMS, and performance 
requirements in the issuance of FedSelect checks.
    (d) When an agency fails to adhere to the provisions of this part or 
to the instructions contained in I TFM 4-3500, the FMS, at its 
discretion, may terminate the services of FedSelect checks. The FMS 
shall provide the agency with prior notification of the date on which 
services will be terminated.



Sec. 247.6  Banks.

    (a) A bank's acceptance of a FedSelect check issued pursuant to this 
part shall constitute its agreement to the provisions of this part.
    (b) Each bank by its action of handling a FedSelect check shall be 
deemed to warrant to the Federal Government that it has handled the 
FedSelect check in accordance with the requirements of this part.



Sec. 247.7  Certification and internal agency control.

    (a) A FedSelect check is not a check drawn on the United States 
Treasury. However, where the drawer of a FedSelect check is the United 
States, the requirements and procedures for disbursing and certifying 
activities under 31 U.S.C. 3321, 3527 and 3528 apply to agency 
accountable officers issuing FedSelect checks.
    (b) FedSelect checks shall be drawn by an individual who is duly 
authorized by the agency, and shall be certified by a certifying 
officer.
    (c) When an agency issues a FedSelect check in payment of a United 
States obligation, such agency certifies the issuance of the payment 
contemporaneous to the issuance of the FedSelect check. Therefore, where 
FedSelect checks are issued through an automated system, certification 
occurs through the on-line data transfer between the agency issuing a 
FedSelect check and the FMS.
    (d) Agencies shall ensure that there are proper internal controls 
over the issuance of FedSelect checks, including payment authorization, 
check issuance, and reconciliations. Payment authorization is the 
process by which vouchers or invoices are approved for payment by 
individuals designated to do so by the head of the agency, or their 
designees. Check issuance is the physical issuance of a FedSelect check 
in payment of a duly approved voucher or invoice. Reconciliation is the 
process by which amounts authorized for payment are verified against 
amounts of checks issued.



Sec.  247.8  Presentment.

    (a) Presentment of FedSelect checks must be made to the payor 
Reserve Bank. FedSelect checks must be presented through normal banking 
channels.
    (b) FedSelect checks will have a standard period of payability of 90 
days.
    (c) FedSelect checks shall bear a pre-printed legend, ``Void After 
90 Days.''
    (d) When an outstanding FedSelect check reaches its stale-date, a 
cancellation indicator will be placed against it and its status 
reflected as cancelled due to stale-dating. A payor Reserve Bank will 
return unpaid a FedSelect check negotiated to the depositary bank more 
than the number of days stated on the FedSelect check after the date on 
which the FedSelect check was issued. A FedSelect check which has 
reached its stale-date before being negotiated to a depositary bank 
should be marked ``void'' on the face of the check and sent to the 
issuing agency or the FMS. The issuance of another FedSelect check or 
other form of payment, to replace a lost, stolen, or destroyed FedSelect 
check must be made in accordance with Sec. 247.9.



Sec. 247.9  Notice, non-receipt, theft, loss or destruction; late presentment.

    (a) If an agency has notice that a FedSelect check is not received 
by the payee within a reasonable time after a payment is due, or that a 
FedSelect check is lost, stolen or destroyed, the agency must request to 
the FMS that a stop payment order be placed on that item. The notice may 
be given by telephone or facsimile, but if it is given by telephone, 
such notice must be confirmed in writing before another payment is 
issued. The notification must contain sufficient information to identify 
the account and/or the obligation to which the payment is related. 
Payment on a FedSelect check is stopped

[[Page 87]]

if the notice of non-receipt, loss, theft, or destruction is received 
from the agency at such time and in such manner as to afford the payor 
Reserve Bank and the FMS a reasonable opportunity to act on it prior to 
final payment, as provided by applicable law. Once a stop payment order 
has been placed against an outstanding FedSelect check, such stop 
payment order will not be removed.
    (b) The agency that issued the FedSelect check will issue another 
FedSelect check to replace a lost, stolen or destroyed FedSelect check, 
or other form of payment, at its discretion. Items an agency may require 
before issuing another FedSelect check include:
    (1) Written confirmation that the original FedSelect check was lost, 
stolen, or destroyed;
    (2) Confirmation from the FMS that the original FedSelect check is 
unpaid;
    (3) A determination that recovery of the original FedSelect check is 
unlikely; and
    (4) An indemnification agreement executed by the payee and/or 
indorsee.
    (c) If a payor Reserve Bank returns unpaid a FedSelect check solely 
as a result of Sec. 247.8(d), the agency that issued the original 
FedSelect check may issue, at its discretion, another FedSelect check, 
or other form of payment, to a payee or holder upon surrender of the 
original FedSelect check and execution of such indemnification agreement 
as may be required by the agency.
    (d) Upon verification of the existence of a forged or unauthorized 
indorsement on a FedSelect check which has been finally paid, the agency 
that issued the original FedSelect check may issue, at its discretion, 
another FedSelect check or other form of payment to the person entitled. 
Disputes as to any continuing obligations for payment remain between the 
agency that issued the payment and the payee. Prior to the issuance of 
another FedSelect check, the payee or indorsee of the original FedSelect 
check may be required to execute an affidavit asserting that the payee 
or indorsee was in no way involved in the fraudulent or unauthorized 
indorsement of the original FedSelect check, in addition to any 
indemnification agreement required by the agency.
    (e) In the case of a FedSelect check payable to the order of two or 
more persons, the requirements of this section apply to all designated 
payees.



Sec. 247.10  Losses and accountability.

    (a) Agencies will be accountable for all losses arising out of 
agency activity related to the issuance of FedSelect checks. Such 
activities include negligence, fraud perpetrated by an employee or agent 
of the agency, and fraud perpetrated by a service-provider or vendor 
receiving a FedSelect check as payment.
    (b) If an agency had notice that a FedSelect check was not received 
by the payee within a reasonable time after a payment is due, or that a 
FedSelect check is lost, stolen or destroyed, and the agency failed to 
request to the FMS that a stop payment order be placed on that item 
pursuant to Sec. 247.9(a), the agency will be accountable for any loss 
occurring as a result of the failure to request stop payment in a timely 
fashion.
    (c) Losses caused by the fault or negligence of the FMS will be the 
accountability of the FMS. Such losses include failure to adhere to a 
request by an agency to place a stop payment order on an item in 
accordance with Sec. 247.9(a).
    (d) The FMS will be accountable for losses caused by third-parties, 
including losses caused by alteration, counterfeit and forgery of the 
payee indorsement, unless such losses occur as described in paragraphs 
(a) and (b) of this section.



Sec. 247.11  Debt collection.

    (a) Agencies are responsible for collection procedures on all 
improperly paid items arising under the circumstances described in 
paragraphs (a) and (b) of Sec. 247.10. However, excepting cases of 
fraud, an agency should write off a debt and refer it to the FMS for 
collection if it is not resolved within 90 days after the item was paid. 
When the FMS collects on the debt, the funds will be returned to the 
agency minus an administrative fee for the collection, in accordance 
with rules set forth in I TFM 4-3500. Accountability for a

[[Page 88]]

debt remains with the agency in accordance with Sec. 247.10.
    (b) The FMS is responsible for collection procedures on all 
improperly paid items arising under the circumstances described in 
paragraphs (c) and (d) of Sec. 247.10. With all such items, the FMS will 
make an initial demand for refund of the amount of a check payment to 
the presenting bank or any other debtor. This demand shall advise the 
presenting bank or debtor of the amount demanded and the reason for the 
demand. All delinquent debts will be subject to interest, penalties and 
administrative fees in accordance with the Federal Claims Collections 
Standards. Any discrepancies should be brought to the attention of the 
FMS.



Sec. 247.12  Funds for losses.

    (a) If collection efforts by the FMS for debts arising under 
paragraphs (c) and (d) of Sec. 247.10 are unsuccessful, sources of funds 
for the payment of such losses include FMS appropriations, to the extent 
available, funds collected from reimbursement fees for services provided 
by the FMS pursuant to Sec. 247.5(b), and other available sources.
    (b) Reimbursement fees paid by agencies to the FMS for FedSelect 
check services will be retained for payment of uncollectible losses, 
consistent with all applicable laws.



Sec. 247.13  Additional requirements.

    In any case or any class of cases arising under these regulations, 
the FMS or the agency that issued the FedSelect check may require such 
additional evidence of loss, improper indorsement or entitlement to a 
replacement as may be necessary for the protection of the interests of 
the United States.



Sec. 247.14  Waiver of regulations.

    The FMS reserves the right to waive any provision(s) of these 
regulations in any case or class of cases for the convenience of the 
United States or in order to relieve any person(s) of unnecessary 
hardship, if such action is not inconsistent with law, does not impair 
any existing rights, and the FMS is satisfied that such action will not 
subject the United States to any substantial expense or liability.



Sec. 247.15  Supplements, amendments or revisions.

    The FMS may, at any time, prescribe supplemental, amendatory, or 
revised regulations, or revoke the regulations in this part.

                         Delegation of Authority



Sec. 248.2  Delegation of authority to issue substitute checks.

    Pursuant to authority contained in section 3646 of the Revised 
Statutes, as amended, and subject to such procedural requirements as may 
be prescribed by the Treasury Department, there is hereby delegated to 
heads of departments and agencies whose disbursing officers issue 
depositary checks, authority to authorize officers or employees of their 
respective departments or agencies to issue substitutes of such checks, 
prior to the close of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year in 
which the checks are issued, and to receive and approve undertakings to 
indemnify the United States in such cases. The Commissioner of the 
Financial Management Service, Treasury Department, is hereby delegated 
authority to issue substitutes of depositary checks drawn by the 
Director, Operations Group, Treasury Department, or by officers 
disbursing under delegation from the Director, Operations Group, and to 
receive and approve undertakings of indemnity in such cases. The 
authority delegated to the Commissioner of the Financial Management 
Service may be redelegated by him to such disbursing officers.
[39 FR 20969, June 17, 1974, as amended at 49 FR 47001, 47002, Nov. 30, 
1984]

                     Action To Be Taken by Claimants



Sec. 248.3  Advice of nonreceipt or loss.

    The payee or owner of a depositary check which is not received, or 
which has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated or defaced to such 
an extent that it is rendered non-negotiable, should immediately notify 
the disbursing officer who issued such check or the administrative 
agency exercising jurisdiction over such disbursing officer, over his 
signature and current address, giving information as to the 
circumstances of the loss, theft or destruction of the check and whether 
it was endorsed, and also requesting that payment of the check be 
stopped. A claimant who is one other than the payee of the check, should 
present a statement in support of his ownership of the check. If the 
check has been mutilated or defaced, it should be forwarded to the 
issuing disbursing officer with request for the issuance of a 
substitute.



Sec. 248.4  Undertaking of indemnity.

    (a) If the check is found to be outstanding and unpaid and it 
appears that the proceeds are due the claimant, the disbursing officer 
will request the claimant to execute an undertaking of indemnity, Form 
2244, in a penal sum equal to the amount of the check (or checks).
    (b) Except in the circumstances set forth below, a corporate surety 
authorized by the Secretary of the Treasury to act as an acceptable 
surety on bonds in favor of the United States or two responsible 
individual sureties will be required on the undertaking of indemnity. It 
will be the responsibility of the claimant in a foreign country to 
secure a certification as to the financial sufficiency of the individual 
sureties executed by one of the persons listed in, and in the manner 
prescribed by, the instruction appearing under the Certificate as to 
Sureties on the face of Form 2244.
    (c) Where the amount of the original check (or checks) is $200 or 
less, or the equivalent in foreign currency, one financially responsible 
individual surety may be accepted.
    (d) Unless it is determined that the requirement of sureties is 
essential in the public interest, sureties will not be required under 
the following circumstances:
    (1) If the officer authorized to issue a substitute check is 
satisfied that the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation or defacement of 
the original check occurred without fault of the owner or holder and 
while the check was in the custody or control of the United States or of 
a person duly authorized as an agent of the United States when 
performing services in connection with an official function of the 
United States;
    (2) If substantially the entire check is presented and surrendered 
by the owner or holder and the disbursing officer is satisfied as to the 
identity of the check presented and that any missing portions are not 
sufficient to form the

[[Page 90]]

basis of a valid claim against the United States;
    (3) If the owner or holder is the United States or an officer or 
employee thereof in his official capacity, a State, the District of 
Columbia, a territory or possession of the United States, a municipal 
corporation or political subdivision of any of the foregoing, a 
corporation the entire capital of which is owned by the United States, a 
foreign government or agency thereof, a foreign central bank, or a 
Federal Reserve Bank.



Sec. 248.5  Exception to requirement of undertaking of indemnity Form 2244.

    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sec. 248.4, if in any case 
involving a financially responsible claimant it is impracticable to 
obtain the execution of Standard Form 2244, with or without sureties, 
the officer or employee responsible for handling the claim, in his 
discretion, may accept an undertaking of indemnity in the form of a 
written statement or letter, substantially as follows:
In consideration of the issuance of a substitute check in lieu of_______
                                                     (Check description)

and the payment of the substitute check, the undersigned undertakes and 
agrees to save harmless and indemnify the United States of America, its 
officers and agents, of and from any and all liability, loss, expense, 
claim, and demand whatsoever, arising in any manner by reason of or on 
account of said original check (or checks) or the stoppage or payment 
thereof, or the issue or payment of the substitute check (or checks), to 
replace the same.

The undertaking of indemnity should be appropriately witnessed, and if 
it is executed on behalf of a corporation or other business 
organization, the individual executing the same should furnish proof of 
this authority to so act. In appropriate cases, a foreign language 
translation of the foregoing letter of indemnity may be accepted.
[25 FR 10869, Nov. 16, 1960. Redesignated at 39 FR 20969, June 17, 1974, 
as amended at 54 FR 35648, Aug. 29, 1989]



Sec. 248.6  Recovery of original check.

    (a) If the claimant recovers an original check after he has 
furnished advice of non-receipt but before receipt of a substitute 
check, he should immediately notify the disbursing officer or agency 
concerned and hold the check until receipt of advice from the disbursing 
officer or agency concerned regarding the negotiability of such original 
check.
    (b) In the event the substitute check has been received prior to the 
recovery of the original check, the original check should be returned 
immediately to the disbursing officer.
    (c) Under no circumstances should the claimant attempt to cash both 
the original and substitute check.



Sec. 248.7  Claims requiring settlement action.

    There are certain types of claims on which the disbursing officer 
will not be authorized to take final action. These include:
    (a) Claims on original checks which have been outstanding more than 
one full fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the checks were 
issued, and
    (b) Claims involving doubtful questions of law and fact.

In such cases the disbursing officer will obtain information and 
supporting papers, including an undertaking of indemnity, from the 
claimant and transmit such data to the Claims Division, General 
Accounting Office, for settlement action.



Sec. 248.8  Inquiries.

    Claimants should direct any inquiries regarding the application of 
these regulations to the department or agency or disbursing officer 
concerned.



Sec. 248.9  Amendments and waivers.

    The Treasury Department may waive, withdraw or amend at any time or 
from time to time any or all of the foregoing regulations.

Sec. 250.1  Scope of regulations.

    The regulations in this part govern payment by the Department of the 
Treasury on awards made and certified to the Secretary of the Treasury 
by the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission under the International 
Claims Settlement Act of 1949, as amended (22 U.S.C. 1621 et seq.), and 
Title II of the War Claims Act of 1948 (50 U.S.C. App. 2017 et seq.).
[34 FR 1897, Feb. 8, 1969]



Sec. 250.2  Forms.

    The forms referred to in Secs. 250.3 and 250.4 shall be used in 
connection with the payment of awards hereunder. Voucher applications 
for all payments will be mailed to awardees by the Financial Management 
Service, Treasury Department, Hyattsville, MD 20782, without request 
therefor by awardees.
[31 FR 9418, July 9, 1966, as amended at 49 FR 47001, Nov. 30, 1984; 58 
FR 4578, Jan. 15, 1993]



Sec. 250.3  Voucher applications.

    (a) Execution of voucher by person named. No payment of any part of 
the amount due on account of an award will be made unless a voucher 
application therefor properly executed (preferably in ink or indelible 
pencil) is received by the Treasury Department. A voucher application 
for each payment on account of an award must be signed by each person 
whose name appears on such voucher application as payee exactly as his 
name appears thereon, with the following two exceptions:
    (1) If only the name of the payee, and not his identity, has 
changed, the payee shall sign the voucher application with his changed 
name and return it to the Financial Management Service, Treasury 
Department, Hyattsville, MD 20782; the voucher application shall be 
accompanied by an explanatory affidavit and appropriate supporting 
documents, e.g., a copy of a marriage certificate or court order of 
change of name.
    (2) If the identity of the payee has changed, paragraph (b) of this 
section shall apply. A signature by mark (X) must be witnessed by two 
persons; the signature and address of each must appear on the voucher 
application. In the case of a corporation the voucher application must 
be signed by an appropriate officer thereof having authority to do so, 
whose authority to sign on behalf of the corporation must be duly 
certified to thereon over the seal of the corporation.
    (b) Execution of voucher by other person. If the person named in the 
voucher application as payee is no longer the proper person to receive 
the payment by reason of assignment, incompetency or death, or of 
termination of a partnership or corporation named, the voucher shall be 
executed by the person entitled to payment as provided in Sec. 250.4 and 
returned to the Credit Accounting Branch with the relevant information 
and the appropriate supporting documents required by that section.
[31 FR 9418, July 9, 1966, as amended at 49 FR 47001, Nov. 30, 1984; 58 
FR 4578, Jan. 15, 1993]



Sec. 250.4  Payment on awards.

    Payment will be made only to the person or persons on behalf of whom 
the award is made, except in the following circumstances:
    (a) If such person is incompetent, payment will be made to his 
guardian, committee, or other equivalent legal representative. The law 
of the residence of the incompetent will determine whether the legal 
representative must be court appointed. If court appointment is 
required, the legal representative shall submit a certificate of the 
clerk of the appointing court, under its seal, dated within 6 months of 
the date of the voucher application for payment, showing that his 
appointment is in full force and effect. If court appointment is not 
required, the legal representative shall submit a notarized statement 
showing:
    (1) His relationship to the incompetent;
    (2) The name and address of the person having care and custody of 
the incompetent;

[[Page 92]]

    (3) That any money received will be applied to the use and benefit 
of the incompetent, and
    (4) That there was no appointment of a guardian or committee.
    (b) If such person is deceased, payment will be made to his legal 
representative.
    (1) If any payment to be made is not over $1,000 and there is no 
qualified executor or administrator, the legal representative will be 
the person found by the Comptroller General to be entitled thereto, 
without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of law with 
respect to the administration of estates, upon execution and submission 
of Standard Form No. 1055 to the Financial Management Service for 
transmittal to the Comptroller General. That form is available from the 
Credit Accounting Branch.
    (2) In all other cases, the term legal representative shall include 
court-appointed or statutory administrators or executors, and successors 
in interest of the decedent, e.g., his legatees or heirs as determined 
by an appropriate court or by the law of his residence. If 
administration of the decedent's estate is closed, the legal 
representative shall submit a copy of the appropriate court's final 
order of distribution or other pertinent order, identifying the 
distributees and their addresses. If administration continues and the 
legal representative is court-appointed, he shall submit a certificate 
of the clerk of the appointing court, under its seal, dated within 6 
months of the date of the voucher application for payment, showing that 
such appointment is in full force and effect. If the legal 
representative is not court-appointed, he shall submit evidence 
sufficient to prove his interest and authority to apply for payment. If 
that evidence is a copy of the decedent's will, it shall show on its 
face or by attachments thereto that it has been offered for probate, and 
that the appropriate court has affixed its seal and attached its 
certification of authenticity that the will is in fact the decedent's 
last will and testament.
    (c)-(d) [Reserved]
    (e) In the case of a partnership or corporation, the existence of 
which has been terminated, if a receiver or trustee has been duly 
appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States and 
has not been discharged prior to the date of payment, payment will be 
made to such receiver or trustee in accordance with the order of the 
court. In the event a receiver or trustee duly appointed by a court of 
competent jurisdiction in the United States makes an assignment of the 
claim or any part thereof with respect to which an award is made, or 
makes an assignment of such award or any part thereof, payment will be 
made to the assignee as his interest may appear. In the latter 
circumstance, certified copies of the court orders showing the authority 
of the receiver or trustee to make the assignment shall be submitted 
with the assignment. No particular form of assignment is prescribed, but 
the original assignment must be submitted to, and will be retained by 
the Treasury Department.
    (f) In the case of a partnership or corporation, the existence of 
which has been terminated, if no receiver or trustee has been duly 
appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States, or 
if such a receiver or trustee has been discharged prior to the date of 
payment without having made an assignment, payment may be made to the 
person or persons found by the Comptroller General of the United States 
to be entitled thereto. In this circumstance, the person or persons 
claiming payment shall submit to the Financial Management Service, 
Treasury Department, Hyattsville, MD 20782, such documentary evidence as 
is appropriate to show his or their right to the payment.
    (g) In the case of an assignment of an award or any part thereof 
which is made in writing and duly acknowledged and filed after such 
award is certified to the Secretary of the Treasury, payment may in the 
discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury be made to the assignee as 
his interest may appear. No particular form of assignment is prescribed, 
but the original assignment must be submitted to, and will be retained 
by the Treasury Department.

Sec. 250.5  Manner of payment.

    Payment will be made by check drawn on the United States Treasury. 
Checks will be mailed to the payee at the address indicated on the 
voucher application, unless subsequent to the issue of the voucher 
application the Treasury Department receives a written request from the 
payee to deliver the check to him at some other address. Where the award 
has been entered in favor of more than one person, only one check will 
be drawn in making payment unless the payees specify the share of each 
and request separate checks.
[31 FR 9418, July 9, 1966]



Sec. 250.6  Powers of attorney.

    No power of attorney to sign a voucher application will be 
recognized but a power of attorney executed subsequent to the 
certification of an award to the Secretary of the Treasury to receive, 
endorse and collect a check given in payment on an award may be 
recognized. An appropriate form for such a power of attorney may be 
obtained from the Financial Management Service, Treasury Department, 
Hyattsville, MD 20782.

Sec. 256.1  Judgments against the United States.

    (a) Persons securing money judgments against the United States, in 
excess of $100,000 in any one case, in the Court of Claims are required, 
in order to secure payment, to file original transcripts of such 
judgments with the Secretary of the Treasury for certification to the 
Congress for appropriation. Following receipt of an application on the 
part of the claimant for payment of the amount appropriated by the 
Congress, the General Accounting Office transmits a certificate of 
settlement to the Treasury Department. Payment is then made to the 
claimant by check drawn in the Treasury Department by the Field 
Operations Group, Financial Management Service. A similar procedure 
applies with respect to such judgments obtained in the Federal district 
courts, except that papers pertaining to such judgments are filed with 
the Secretary of the Treasury by the Department of Justice instead of by 
the claimant.
    (b) A procedure similar to that outlined in paragraph (a) of this 
section is followed with respect to judgments not in excess of $100,000 
in any one case except that the necessary documents are filed with the 
General Accounting Office and no action is taken by the Treasury 
Department prior to the receipt of a certificate of settlement from the 
General Accounting Office. After receipt of a certificate of settlement 
a check payable from a permanent appropriation established for the 
payment of such judgments is drawn in the Treasury Department by the 
Field Operations Group, Financial Management Service and mailed to the 
claimant in accordance with the terms of the certificate of settlement.

Sec. 281.1  Authority.

    By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Treasury 
by section 114 of the Budget and Accounting Procedures Act of 1950, 64 
Stat. 836, 31 U.S.C. 66b; section 613 of the Act of September 4, 1961, 
75 Stat. 443; Executive Order No. 10488, 18 FR 5699, 3 CFR 1949-1953 
Comp.; and Executive Order No. 10900, 26 FR 143, the following 
regulations are prescribed for administration of the purchase custody, 
deposit, transfer, sale and reporting of foreign exchange (including 
credits and currencies) by executive departments and agencies 
(hereinafter referred to as agencies).



Sec. 281.2  [Reserved]



Sec. 281.3  Collections.

    Foreign exchange collected by agencies shall be delivered promptly 
into the custody of accountable officers for credit to accounts of the 
Secretary of the Treasury (hereinafter referred to as the Secretary) 
unless otherwise directed by the Secretary. The term ``collections,'' 
for the purpose of these regulations in this part, does not include 
foreign exchange acquired by the United States by purchase with dollars. 
The accountable officer shall maintain records, showing the collections, 
by source, and indicating the miscellaneous receipt accounts or other 
accounts in the Treasury to be credited with dollar proceeds from sale 
of the foreign exchange, and such further classifications as may be 
needed to indicate exchange which can be used only for restricted 
purposes. Accountable officers shall be advised by the collecting 
agencies of the source of collections and any restrictions on the use of 
the foreign exchange in order that the foregoing records may be 
maintained.



Sec. 281.4  Guaranty funds.

    The regulations in this part are applicable to all foreign exchange 
acquired by the United States under guaranty provisions of section 1011 
of the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948, 
as amended (22 U.S.C. 1442), except that receipts of such foreign 
exchange shall be deposited in the foreign exchange accounts of the 
United States Treasury referred to in Sec. 281.5(c).



Sec. 281.5  Depositaries.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, foreign 
exchange which is held by accountable officers for account of the 
Secretary and foreign exchange acquired by accountable officers by 
purchase or otherwise, which is not immediately disbursed but is held by 
such officers for their own account or for the account of any agency, 
shall be maintained only in depositaries designated by the Secretary. 
Unless otherwise directed by the Secretary, accountable officers are not 
required to have separate depositary accounts for foreign exchange held 
for the Secretary's account.
    (b) Accountable officers may carry foreign exchange as cash outside 
depositaries only pursuant to authority granted in accordance with 
Treasury Department Circular No. 1030 dated July 24, 1959, as amended.
    (c) Deposits in and withdrawals from foreign exchange accounts 
maintained with depositaries in the name of the United States Treasury 
will be made only as directed by the Secretary.



Sec. 281.6  Withdrawals from Treasury accounts.

    Foreign exchange shall be withdrawn from accounts of the Secretary 
on the books of accountable officers or from the foreign exchange 
accounts carried with depositaries in the name of the United States 
Treasury, only for the purpose of sale for dollars or transfer to 
agencies for authorized purposes, without reimbursement to the Treasury, 
as provided by or pursuant to law. Such transfers, as well as transfers 
between foreign exchange accounts of the Secretary and between foreign 
exchange accounts in the name of the United States Treasury, shall be 
made

[[Page 96]]

only by direction of the Secretary. An agency requiring foreign exchange 
from the Treasury Department shall make request of the Secretary, 
indicating the amount of exchange required, in units of foreign 
currency, and the name and location of the accountable officer to 
receive the exchange. To the extent practicable and desirable, standing 
authorizations will be given for withdrawals from accounts of the 
Secretary. The following conditions apply to the sale of foreign 
exchange and to the requisition of foreign exchange without dollar 
payment:
    (a) Sales. With respect to the sale of foreign exchange held in 
accounts of the Secretary, the payment in dollars shall be calculated at 
the rate of exchange that would otherwise be available to the United 
States for the acquisition of the foreign exchange for its official 
disbursements unless otherwise determined by the Treasury Department in 
consultation with the agencies concerned. When the rate that would 
otherwise be available to the United States is not readily 
ascertainable, the Treasury Department shall be consulted. The dollar 
proceeds realized from the sale of exchange shall be credited to the 
appropriate receipt, appropriation or refund account on the books of the 
Treasury. The dollar payment for foreign exchange purchased shall not be 
charged as an appropriation expenditure until the foreign exchange is 
disbursed.
    (b) Transfers without reimbursement. When foreign exchange is to be 
obtained from the Treasury Department without payment of dollars, the 
agency concerned shall furnish written certification that the exchange 
may be used without reimbursement to the Treasury, citing the relevant 
legal authority. In cases where international agreements or Bureau of 
the Budget allocations specify the programs for which foreign exchange 
may be used, the Secretary may transfer exchange to agencies without 
requiring a certification.
[26 FR 10054, Oct. 26, 1961, as amended at 29 FR 11497, Aug. 11, 1964]



Sec. 281.7  Limitations.

    The following limitations apply to the purchase and holding of 
foreign exchange:
    (a) Unless otherwise authorized by the Secretary, no agency or 
accountable officer shall purchase, or direct the purchase of, foreign 
exchange from any source outside the Government of the United States, 
except when exchange for the purpose intended is not available for 
purchase from within the Government.
    (b) All foreign exchange acquired by agencies by transfer from the 
Treasury Department, without payment of dollars, for the purpose of 
making authorized expenditures, shall be placed with accountable 
officers for account of the agencies concerned.
    (c) Unless otherwise authorized by the Secretary, no accountable 
officer shall purchase foreign exchange which, together with the balance 
on hand at the time of purchase, would exceed estimated requirements for 
a thirty-day period.
    (d) To the maximum extent possible, foreign exchange accounts which 
are earmarked for specific programs shall be maintained on an unfunded 
basis. Each agency responsible for administering international 
agreements pertaining to the use of foreign exchange held in funded 
accounts shall review the agreement and other considerations relevant to 
each such account at least annually to determine if the account can be 
placed on an unfunded basis, and shall initiate appropriate action to 
accomplish the objective of minimizing the number of funded program 
accounts and the amounts therein. The resulting determinations and the 
status of actions undertaken shall be furnished in writing to the 
Treasury Department within 60 days from the date of this regulation and 
each time thereafter that there is a change of status of a particular 
account, or as requested by the Treasury Department. Exchange which 
becomes eligible for removal from a funded status either as a result of 
the foregoing determinations, or because of the expiration of the period 
of availability for restricted use under the terms of international 
agreements, or for other reasons, shall be released promptly by the 
program agency for transfer to a nonrestricted Treasury sales account.
[26 FR 10054, Oct. 26, 1961, as amended at 29 FR 11497, Aug. 11, 1964]

[[Page 97]]



Sec. 281.8  Reporting and accounting.

    The Treasury Department will maintain a system of central accounting 
and reporting for the purpose of providing information on foreign 
exchange operations to the President, the Congress, and the public. The 
Treasury Department will also prescribe rules to enhance consistency in 
reporting of foreign exchange operations by all agencies. Agencies shall 
furnish such reports and information as may be required for the 
administration of the provisions of this circular.



Sec. 281.9  General provisions.

    (a) Nothing contained in this part shall be construed as having the 
effect of superseding or amending the provisions of any regulations 
issued or approved by the Secretary pursuant to the Act of December 23, 
1944, as amended (67 Stat. 61).
    (b) The Secretary may waive, withdraw, or amend at any time or from 
time to time any or all of the provisions of the regulations of this 
part.
    (c) Implementing regulations within the framework of this circular 
will be issued by the Fiscal Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. All 
communications pertaining to the administration of the provisions of 
this part shall be directed to the Fiscal Assistant Secretary.

                  Subpart A--Disbursing Official Offset



Sec. 285.1  Collection of past-due support by administrative offset.

    (a) Definitions. For purposes of this section:
    Administrative offset means withholding funds payable by the United 
States (including funds payable by the United States on behalf of a 
State government) to, or held by the United States for, a person to 
satisfy a debt.
    Debt as used in this section is synonymous with the term past-due 
support.
    Disbursing official includes an official who has authority to 
disburse public money pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3321 or another Federal law.
    FMS means the Financial Management Service, a bureau of the 
Department of the Treasury. FMS is the designee of the Secretary of the 
Treasury for all matters concerning this section, unless otherwise 
specified.
    HHS means the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of 
Child Support Enforcement.
    Past-due support means the amount of support determined under a 
court order, or an order of an administrative procedure established 
under State law, for support and maintenance of a child, or of a child 
and the parent with whom the child is living, which has not been paid.
    Past-due support being enforced by the State means there has been an 
assignment of the support rights to the State or the State making the 
request for offset is providing services to individuals pursuant to 42 
U.S.C. 654(5) (section 454(5) of the Social Security Act).
    State means the several States of the United States. The term State 
also includes the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the United 
States Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, 
and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
    Secretary means the Secretary of the Treasury.
    (b) General rule. FMS may enter into a reciprocal agreement with a 
State for the collection of past-due support being

[[Page 98]]

enforced by the State by administrative offset from certain Federal 
payments. Upon notification of past-due support either directly from a 
State which has entered into such an agreement or from HHS, disbursing 
officials of FMS or any other disbursing official of the United States 
shall offset Federal payments which are subject to offset under this 
section, to collect past-due support. The amount offset, minus the 
offset fee, shall be forwarded to the State to be distributed in 
accordance with applicable laws and procedures.
    (c) Agreements. FMS may enter into reciprocal agreements with States 
for disbursing officials of FMS and any other Federal disbursing 
official to offset certain Federal payments to collect past-due support 
being enforced by the State. The agreement shall contain any 
requirements which FMS considers appropriate to facilitate the offset 
and prevent duplicative efforts and shall require States to prescribe 
procedures governing the collection of past-due support by Federal 
administrative offset. For purposes of this section, reciprocal means of 
mutual benefit. An agreement between FMS and a State to collect past-due 
support by offsetting Federal payments will be considered of mutual 
benefit and it is not required that States conduct administrative 
offsets to collect debts owed to the Federal Government. States which 
have entered into an agreement with FMS pursuant to this section may 
thereafter request, in the manner prescribed herein, that an offset be 
performed. Such requests shall be made by the appropriate State 
disbursing official which, for purposes of this section, means an 
appropriate official of the State agency which administers or supervises 
the administration of the State plan under Title IV-D of the Social 
Security Act.
    (d) Notification to FMS of past-due support. (1) States notifying 
FMS of past-due support must do so in the manner and format prescribed 
by FMS. States notifying HHS of past-due support must do so in the 
manner and format prescribed by HHS. HHS shall notify FMS of all past-
due support referred to HHS by States for collection by administrative 
offset provided that the requirements of paragraphs (d)(3) and (h) of 
this section have been met.
    (2) When a State has knowledge that past-due support is being 
enforced by more than one State, the State notifying FMS or HHS of the 
past-due support must inform any other State involved in enforcing the 
past-due support when it refers the debt for offset and when it receives 
the offset amount.
    (3) The notification of past-due support must be accompanied by a 
certification that the debt is past-due, legally enforceable, and that 
the State has complied with all the requirements as set forth in 
paragraph (h) of this section and with any requirements imposed by State 
law or procedure. For debts so certified, the Secretary may waive 
sections 552a (o) and (p) of Title 5, United States Code, where 
applicable, in accordance with the Secretary's authority under 31 U.S.C. 
3716(f).
    (4) FMS may reject a notification of past-due support which does not 
comply with the requirements of this section. The State will be notified 
of the rejection along with the reason for the rejection.
    (e) Minimum amount of past-due support. FMS will reject a 
notification of past-due support where the past-due support owed is less 
than $25.00. This amount may be adjusted from time to time by FMS to 
ensure that the cost of collection does not exceed the debt.
    (f) Limitations. Debts properly submitted to FMS for administrative 
offset will remain subject to collection by administrative offset until 
withdrawn by the State provided the debt remains past-due and legally 
enforceable.
    (g) Notification of changes in status of debt. The State notifying 
FMS or HHS of past-due support shall, in the manner and in the time 
frames provided by FMS or HHS, notify FMS or HHS of any deletion or 
decrease in the amount of a debt referred for collection by 
administrative offset. The State may notify FMS or HHS of any increases 
in the amount of a debt referred for collection by administrative offset 
provided the State has complied with the requirements of paragraph (h) 
of this section with regard to those amounts.
    (h) Advance notification of intent to collect by administrative 
offset. (1) The State, or FMS or HHS on behalf of the

[[Page 99]]

State, if the State requests and FMS or HHS agrees, shall send a written 
notification, at least 30 days in advance of referral of the debt for 
offset, to the individual owing past-due support, informing the 
individual that the State intends to refer the debt for collection by 
administrative offset against Federal payments. The notice must also 
inform the individual of:
    (i) The nature and amount of the debt; and
    (ii) The right to an administrative review by the State referring 
the debt or, upon the request of the individual, by the State with the 
order upon which the referral was based, of the determination of the 
State with respect to the debt and of the procedures and time frames 
established by the State for such reviews.
    (2) Prior to referring a debt to FMS for collection by 
administrative offset, States must provide individuals with a reasonable 
opportunity to exercise the rights enumerated in paragraph (h)(1) of 
this section in accordance with procedures prescribed by the State.
    (i) Payments subject to offset. Federal payments subject to offset 
under this section include all Federal payments except:
    (1) Payments due to an individual under
    (i) Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965;
    (ii) The Social Security Act;
    (iii) Part B of the Black Lung Benefits Act;
    (iv) Any law administered by the Railroad Retirement Board;
    (2) Payments which the Secretary determines are exempt from offset 
in accordance with paragraph (k) of this section;
    (3) Payments from which collection of past-due support by 
administrative offset is expressly prohibited by law;
    (4) Payments made under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (except 
that tax refund payments are subject to offset under separate 
authority); and
    (5) Payments made under the tariff laws of the United States.
    (j) Special provisions applicable to Federal salary payments. (1) 
Unless a lower maximum offset limitation is provided by applicable State 
law, the maximum part of a Federal salary payment per pay period subject 
to offset to collect past-due support shall not exceed those amounts set 
forth at section 1673(b)(2) (A) and (B) of Title 15, United States Code, 
as follows:
    (i) Fifty (50%) percent of the debtor's aggregate disposable 
earnings for any pay period, where the debtor asserts by affidavit, or 
by other acceptable evidence, that he/she is supporting a spouse and/or 
dependent child, other than the former spouse and/or child for whom 
support is being collected, except that an additional five (5%) percent 
will apply if it appears that such earnings are to enforce past-due 
support for a period which is twelve (12) weeks or more prior to the pay 
period to which the offset applies. A debtor shall be considered to be 
supporting a spouse and/or dependent child only if the debtor provides 
over half of the spouse's and/or dependent child's support.
    (ii) Sixty (60%) percent of the debtor's aggregate disposable 
earnings for any pay period where the debtor fails to assert by 
affidavit or establish by other acceptable evidence that he/she is 
supporting a spouse and/or dependent child, other than a former spouse 
and/or child for whom support is being collected, except that an 
additional five (5%) percent will apply if it appears that such earnings 
are to enforce past-due support for a period which is twelve (12) weeks 
or more prior to the pay period to which the offset applies.
    (2) The maximum allowable offset amount shall be reduced by the 
amount of any deductions in pay resulting from a garnishment order for 
support. Nothing in this rule is intended to alter rules applicable to 
processing garnishment orders for child support and/or alimony.
    (3) Federal salary payments subject to offset for the collection of 
past-due support include current basic pay, special pay, incentive pay, 
retainer pay, overtime, or in the case of an employee not entitled to 
basic pay, other authorized pay. Aggregate disposable earnings for 
purposes of determining the maximum amounts which may be offset under 
paragraph (j)(1) of this section is Federal salary pay remaining after 
the deduction of:

[[Page 100]]

    (i) Any amount required by law to be withheld;
    (ii) Amounts properly withheld for Federal, State or local income 
tax purposes;
    (iii) Amounts deducted as health insurance premiums;
    (iv) Amounts deducted as normal retirement contributions, not 
including amounts deducted for supplementary coverage; and
    (v) Amounts deducted as normal life insurance premiums not including 
amounts deducted for supplementary coverage.
    (4) At least 30 days in advance of offset, the disbursing official 
shall send written notice to the debtor of the maximum offset 
limitations described in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. The notice 
shall include a request that the debtor submit supporting affidavits or 
other documentation necessary to determine the applicable offset 
percentage limitation. The notice shall also inform the debtor of the 
percentage that will be deducted if he/she fails to submit the requested 
documentation.
    (k) Payments exempt from administrative offset to collect past-due 
support being enforced by a State. The Secretary will exempt from 
administrative offset under this part payments made under means-tested 
programs when requested by the head of the Federal agency which 
administers the program. For purposes of this section, means-tested 
programs are programs for which eligibility is based on a determination 
that income and/or assets of the beneficiary are inadequate to provide 
the beneficiary with an adequate standard of living without program 
assistance. The Secretary may exempt from administrative offset under 
this section any other class or type of payment upon the written request 
of the head of the agency which authorizes the payments. In determining 
whether or not to grant such exemptions, the Secretary shall give due 
consideration to whether administrative offset would tend to interfere 
substantially with or defeat the purposes of the payment agency's 
program.
    (l) Fees. A fee which FMS has determined to be sufficient to 
reimburse FMS for the full cost of the offset procedure, shall be 
deducted from each offset amount. FMS will notify the States, annually 
and in advance, of the amount of the fee to be charged for each offset.
    (m) Conducting the offset. Disbursing officials of the Department of 
the Treasury, the Department of Defense, the United States Postal 
Service, or any other Government corporation, any disbursing official of 
the United States designated by the Secretary, or any disbursing 
official of an executive department or agency that disburses Federal 
payments shall offset payments subject to offset under this section to 
satisfy, in whole or part, a debt owed by the payee. Disbursing 
officials shall compare payment certification records with records of 
debts submitted to FMS for collection by administrative offset. A match 
will occur when the taxpayer identifying number and name control of a 
payment record are the same as the taxpayer identifying number and name 
control of a debt record. The taxpayer identifying number for an 
individual is the individual's social security number. When a match 
occurs and all other requirements for offset have been met, the 
disbursing official shall offset the payment to satisfy, in whole or 
part, the debt. Any amounts not offset shall be paid to the payee. The 
amount that can be offset from a single payment is the lesser of the 
amount of the debt (including interest, penalties, and administrative 
costs); the amount of the payment; or the amount of the payment 
available for offset if a statute or regulation prohibits offset of the 
entire amount. Debts remain subject to collection by offset until paid 
in full.
    (n) Priorities. When a payee owes more than one debt which has been 
referred to FMS for collection by administrative offset, any offset will 
be applied first to past-due support assigned to a State and will be 
applied to any other past-due support after any other reductions allowed 
by law.
    (o) Notification of offset. Disbursing officials of FMS or any other 
disbursing official which conducts an offset will notify the payee in 
writing of the occurrence of the offset to satisfy past-due support. The 
notice shall inform the payee of the type and amount of

[[Page 101]]

the payment that was offset; the identity of the State which requested 
the offset; and a contact point within the State that will handle 
concerns regarding the offset. Disbursing officials shall not be liable 
for failure to provide this notice.
    (p) Liability of disbursing officials and payment agencies. Neither 
the disbursing official nor the agency authorizing the payment shall be 
liable for the amount of the administrative offset on the basis that the 
underlying obligation, represented by the payment before the 
administrative offset was taken, was not satisfied. Disbursing officials 
will notify the agency authorizing the payment that the offset has 
occurred so that the agency authorizing the payment may direct any 
inquiries concerning the offset to the appropriate State.
[62 FR 36210, July 7, 1997]



Sec. 285.2  Offset of tax refund payments to collect past-due, legally enforceable nontax debt.

    (a) Definitions. For purposes of this section:
    Creditor agency means a Federal agency owed a claim that seeks to 
collect that claim through tax refund offset.
    Debt or claim refers to an amount of money, funds, or property which 
has been determined by an agency official to be due the United States 
from any person, organization, or entity, except another Federal agency. 
For the purposes of this section, the terms ``claim'' and ``debt'' are 
synonymous and interchangeable and includes debt administered by a third 
party acting as an agent for the Federal Government.
    Debtor means a person who owes a debt or claim. The term ``person'' 
includes any individual, organization or entity, except another Federal 
agency.
    FMS means the Financial Management Service, a bureau of the 
Department of the Treasury.
    IRS means the Internal Revenue Service, a bureau of the Department 
of the Treasury.
    Tax refund offset means withholding or reducing a tax refund payment 
by an amount necessary to satisfy a debt owed by the payee(s) of a tax 
refund payment.
    Tax refund payment means any overpayment of Federal taxes to be 
refunded to the person making the overpayment after the IRS makes the 
appropriate credits as provided in 26 U.S.C. 6402(a) and 26 CFR 6402-
3(a)(6)(i) for any liabilities for any tax on the part of the person who 
made the overpayment.
    (b) General rule. (1) A Federal agency (as defined in 26 U.S.C. 
6402(g)) that is owed by a person a past-due, legally enforceable nontax 
debt shall notify FMS of the amount of such debt for collection by tax 
refund offset. However, any agency subject to section 9 of the Act of 
May 18, 1933 (16 U.S.C. 831h) owed such a debt may, but is not required 
to, notify FMS of the amount of such debt for collection by tax refund 
offset.
    (2) FMS will compare tax refund payment records, as certified by the 
IRS, with records of debts submitted to FMS. A match will occur when the 
taxpayer identifying number (as that term is used in 26 U.S.C. 6109) and 
name (or derivation of the name, known as a ``name control'') of a 
payment certification record are the same as the taxpayer identifying 
number and name control of a debtor record. When a match occurs and all 
other requirements for tax refund offset have been met, FMS will reduce 
the amount of any tax refund payment payable to a debtor by the amount 
of any past-due, legally enforceable debt owed by the debtor. Any 
amounts not offset will be paid to the payee(s) listed in the payment 
certification record.
    (3) This section does not apply to any debt or claim arising under 
the Internal Revenue Code.
    (4)(i) This section applies to Federal Old Age, Survivors and 
Disability Insurance (OASDI) overpayments provided the requirements of 
31 U.S.C. 3720A(f)(1) and (2) are met with respect to such overpayments.
    (ii) For purposes of this section, OASDI overpayment means any 
overpayment of benefits made to an individual under title II of the 
Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 401 et seq.).
    (5) A creditor agency is not precluded from using debt collection 
procedures, such as wage garnishment, to collect debts that have been 
submitted to FMS for purposes of offset under this part.

Such debt collection procedures may be used separately or in conjunction 
with offset collection procedures.
    (c) Regulations. Prior to submitting debts to FMS for collection by 
tax refund offset, Federal agencies shall promulgate temporary or final 
regulations under 31 U.S.C. 3716 and 31 U.S.C. 3720A, governing the 
agencies' authority to collect debts by administrative offset, in 
general, and offset of tax refund payments, in particular.
    (d) Agency certification and referral of debt--(1) Past-due, legally 
enforceable debt eligible for tax refund offset. For purposes of this 
section, when a Federal agency refers a past-due, legally enforceable 
debt to FMS for tax refund offset, the agency will certify to FMS that:
    (i) The debt is past-due and legally enforceable in the amount 
submitted to FMS and that the agency will ensure that collections are 
properly credited to the debt;
    (ii) Except in the case of a judgment debt or as otherwise allowed 
by law, the debt is referred for offset within ten years after the 
agency's right of action accrues;
    (iii) The creditor agency has made reasonable efforts to obtain 
payment of the debt in that the agency has:
    (A) Submitted the debt to FMS for collection by administrative 
offset and complied with the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3716(a) and related 
regulations, to the extent that collection of the debt by administrative 
offset is not prohibited by statute;
    (B) Notified, or has made a reasonable attempt to notify, the debtor 
that the debt is past-due, and unless repaid within 60 days after the 
date of the notice, will be referred to FMS for tax refund offset;
    (C) Given the debtor at least 60 days to present evidence that all 
or part of the debt is not past-due or legally enforceable, considered 
any evidence presented by the debtor, and determined that the debt is 
past-due and legally enforceable; and
    (D) Provided the debtor with an opportunity to make a written 
agreement to repay the amount of the debt;
    (iv) The debt is at least $25; and
    (v) In the case of an OASDI overpayment--
    (A) The individual is not currently entitled to monthly insurance 
benefits under title II of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 401 et 
seq.);
    (B) The notice describes conditions under which the Commissioner of 
Social Security is required to waive recovery of the overpayment, as 
provided under 42 U.S.C. 404(b); and
    (C) If the debtor files a request for a waiver under 42 U.S.C. 
404(b) within the 60-day notice period, the agency has considered the 
debtor's request.
    (2) Pre-offset notice and consideration of evidence for past-due, 
legally enforceable debt. (i) For purposes of paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(B) 
of this section, a creditor agency has made a reasonable attempt to 
notify the debtor if the agency uses the current address information 
contained in the agency's records related to the debt. Agencies may, but 
are not required to, obtain address information from the IRS pursuant to 
26 U.S.C. 6103(m)(2), (4), or (5).
    (ii) For purposes of paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(C) of this section, if 
the evidence presented by the debtor is considered by an agent of the 
creditor agency, or other entities or persons acting on the agency's 
behalf, the debtor must be accorded at least 30 days from the date the 
agent or other entity or person determines that all or part of the debt 
is past-due and legally enforceable to request review by an officer or 
employee of the agency of any unresolved dispute. The agency must then 
notify the debtor of its decision.
    (3) Referral of past-due, legally enforceable debt. A Federal agency 
will submit past-due, legally enforceable debt information for tax 
refund offset to FMS in the time and manner prescribed by FMS. For each 
debt, the creditor agency will include the following information:
    (i) The name and taxpayer identifying number (as defined in 26 
U.S.C. 6109) of the debtor who is responsible for the debt;
    (ii) The amount of such past-due and legally enforceable debt;
    (iii) The date on which the debt became past-due;
    (iv) The designation of the Federal agency or subagency referring 
the debt; and

[[Page 103]]

    (v) In the case of an OASDI overpayment, a certification by the 
Commissioner of Social Security designating whether the amount payable 
to the agency is to be deposited in either the Federal Old-Age and 
Survivors Insurance Trust Fund or the Federal Disability Insurance Trust 
Fund, but not both.
    (4) Correcting and updating referral. If, after referring a past-
due, legally enforceable debt to FMS as provided in paragraph (d)(3) of 
this section, a creditor agency determines that an error has been made 
with respect to the information transmitted to FMS, or if an agency 
receives a payment or credits a payment to the account of a debtor 
referred to FMS for offset, or if the debt amount is otherwise 
incorrect, the agency shall promptly notify FMS and make the appropriate 
correction of the agency's records. Creditor agencies will provide 
certification as required under paragraph (d)(1) of this section for any 
increases to amounts owed.
    (5) FMS may reject a certification which does not comply with the 
requirements of paragraph (d)(1) of this section. Upon notification of 
the rejection and the reason for the rejection, a creditor agency may 
resubmit the debt with a corrected certification.
    (e) Priorities for offset. (1) A tax refund payment shall be reduced 
first by the amount of any past-due support assigned to a State under 
section 402(a)(26) or section 471(a)(17) of the Social Security Act (42 
U.S.C. 602(a)(26) or 42 U.S.C. 671(a)(17)) which is to be offset under 
26 U.S.C. 6402(c), 42 U.S.C. 664 and the regulations thereunder; second, 
by the amount of any past-due, legally enforceable debt owed to a 
Federal agency which is to be offset under 26 U.S.C. 6402(d), 31 U.S.C. 
3720A and this section; and third, by the amount of any qualifying past-
due support not assigned to a State which is to be offset under 26 
U.S.C. 6402(c), 42 U.S.C. 664 and the regulations thereunder.
    (2) If a debtor owes more than one past-due, legally enforceable 
debt to a Federal agency or agencies, the tax refund payment shall be 
credited against the debts in the order in which the debts accrued. A 
debt shall be considered to have accrued at the time at which the agency 
determines that the debt became past due.
    (3) Reduction of the tax refund payment pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 
6402(a), (c), and (d) shall occur prior to crediting the overpayment to 
any future liability for an internal revenue tax. Any amount remaining 
after tax refund offset under 26 U.S.C. 6402 (a), (c), and (d) shall be 
refunded to the taxpayer, or applied to estimated tax, if elected by the 
taxpayer pursuant to IRS regulations.
    (f) Post-offset notice to the debtor, the creditor agency, and the 
IRS. (1)(i) FMS will notify the payee(s) to whom the tax refund payment 
is due, in writing of:
    (A) The amount and date of the offset to satisfy a past-due, legally 
enforceable nontax debt;
    (B) The creditor agency to which this amount has been paid or 
credited; and
    (C) A contact point within the creditor agency that will handle 
concerns or questions regarding the offset.
    (ii) The notice in paragraph (f)(1)(i) of this section will also 
advise any non-debtor spouse who may have filed a joint tax return with 
the debtor of the steps which a non-debtor spouse may take in order to 
secure his or her proper share of the tax refund. See paragraph (g) of 
this section.
    (2) FMS will advise each creditor agency of the names, mailing 
addresses, and identifying numbers of the debtors from whom amounts of 
past-due, legally enforceable debt were collected and of the amounts 
collected from each debtor for that agency. FMS will not advise the 
creditor agency of the source of payment from which such amounts were 
collected. If a payment from which an amount of past-due, legally 
enforceable debt is to be withheld is payable to two individual payees, 
FMS will notify the creditor agency and furnish the name and address of 
each payee to whom the payment was payable.
    (3) At least weekly, FMS will notify the IRS of the names and 
taxpayer identifying numbers of the debtors from whom amounts of past-
due, legally enforceable debt were collected and the amounts collected 
from each debtor.

[[Page 104]]

    (g) Offset made with regard to a tax refund payment based upon joint 
return. If the person filing a joint return with a debtor owing the 
past-due, legally enforceable debt takes appropriate action to secure 
his or her proper share of a tax refund from which an offset was made, 
the IRS will pay the person his or her share of the refund and request 
that FMS deduct that amount from amounts payable to the creditor agency. 
FMS and the creditor agency will adjust their debtor records 
accordingly.
    (h) Disposition of amounts collected. FMS will transmit amounts 
collected for past-due, legally enforceable debts, less fees charged 
under paragraph (i) of this section, to the creditor agency's account. 
If an erroneous payment is made to any agency, FMS will notify the 
creditor agency that an erroneous payment has been made. The agency 
shall pay promptly to FMS an amount equal to the amount of the erroneous 
payment (without regard to whether any other amounts payable to such 
agency have been paid).
    (i) Fees. The creditor agency will reimburse FMS and the IRS for the 
full cost of administering the tax refund offset program. FMS will 
deduct the fees from amounts collected prior to disposition and transmit 
a portion of the fees deducted to reimburse the IRS for its share of the 
cost of administering the tax refund offset program. To the extent 
allowed by law, creditor agencies may add the offset fees to the debt.
    (j) Review of tax refund offsets. Any reduction of a taxpayer's 
refund made pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 6402(d) shall not be subject to review 
by any court of the United States or by the Secretary of the Treasury, 
FMS or IRS in an administrative proceeding. No action brought against 
the United States to recover the amount of this reduction shall be 
considered to be a suit for refund of tax. Any legal, equitable, or 
administrative action by any person seeking to recover the amount of the 
reduction of the overpayment must be taken against the Federal creditor 
agency to which the amount of the reduction was paid. Any action which 
is otherwise available with respect to recoveries of overpayments of 
benefits under 42 U.S.C. 404 must be taken against the Commissioner of 
Social Security.
    (k) Access to and use of confidential tax information. Access to and 
use of confidential tax information in connection with the tax refund 
offset program are restricted by 26 U.S.C. 6103. Generally, agencies 
will not receive confidential tax information from FMS. To the extent 
such information is received, agencies are subject to the safeguard, 
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements of 26 U.S.C. 6103(p)(4) and 
the regulations thereunder. The agency shall inform its officers and 
employees who access or use confidential tax information of the 
restrictions and penalties under the Internal Revenue Code for misuse of 
confidential tax information.
    (l) Effective date. This section applies to tax refund payments 
payable under 26 U.S.C. 6402 after January 1, 1998.



Sec. 285.7  Salary offset.

    (a) Purpose and scope. (1) This section establishes procedures for 
the offset of Federal salary payments, through FMS' administrative 
offset program, to collect delinquent debts owed to the Federal 
Government. This process is known as salary offset. Rules issued by the 
Office of Personnel Management contain the requirements Federal agencies 
must follow prior to conducting salary offset and the procedures for 
requesting offsets directly from a paying agency. See 5 CFR 550.1101 
through 550.1108.
    (2) This section implements the requirement under 5 U.S.C. 
5514(a)(1) that all Federal agencies, using a process known as 
centralized salary offset computer matching, identify Federal employees 
who owe delinquent nontax debt to the United States. Centralized salary 
offset computer matching is the computerized comparison of delinquent 
debt records with records of Federal employees. The purpose of 
centralized salary offset computer matching is to identify those debtors 
whose Federal salaries should be offset to collect delinquent debts owed 
to the Federal Government.
    (3) This section specifies the delinquent debt records and Federal 
employee records that must be included in

[[Page 105]]

the salary offset matching process. For purposes of this section, 
delinquent debt records consist of the debt information submitted to the 
Financial Management Service for purposes of administrative offset as 
required under 31 U.S.C. 3716(c)(6). Agencies that submit their debt to 
FMS for purposes of administrative offset are not required to submit 
duplicate information for purposes of centralized salary offset computer 
matching under 5 U.S.C. 5514 and this section.
    (4) This section establishes an interagency consortium to implement 
centralized salary offset computer matching on a government-wide basis 
as required under 5 U.S.C. 5514(a)(1). Federal employee records consist 
of records of Federal salary payments disbursed by members of the 
consortium.
    (5) The receipt of collections from salary offsets does not preclude 
a creditor agency from pursuing other debt collection remedies, 
including the offset of other Federal payments to satisfy delinquent 
nontax debt owed to the United States. A creditor agency should pursue, 
when deemed appropriate by such agency, such debt collection remedies 
separately or in conjunction with salary offset.
    (b) Definitions. For purposes of this section:
    Administrative offset means withholding funds payable by the United 
States to, or held by the United States for, a person to satisfy a debt 
owed by the payee.
    Agency means a department, agency or subagency, court, court 
administrative office, or instrumentality in the executive, judicial, or 
legislative branch of the Federal government, including government 
corporations.
    Centralized salary offset computer matching means the computerized 
comparison of Federal employee records with delinquent debt records to 
identify Federal employees who owe such debts.
    Creditor agency means any agency that is owed a debt.
    Debt means any amount of money, funds, or property that has been 
determined by an appropriate official of the Federal government to be 
owed to the United States by a person, including debt administered by a 
third party acting as an agent for the Federal Government. For purposes 
of this section, the term ``debt'' does not include debts arising under 
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (26 U.S.C.).
    Delinquent debt record means information about a past-due, legally 
enforceable debt, submitted by a creditor agency to FMS for purposes of 
administrative offset (including salary offset) in accordance with the 
provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3716 and applicable regulations. Debt 
information includes the amount and type of debt and the debtor's name, 
address, and taxpayer identifying number.
    Disbursing official means an officer or employee designated to 
disburse Federal salary payments. This section applies to all disbursing 
officials of Federal salary payments, including but not limited to, 
disbursing officials of the Department of the Treasury, the Department 
of Defense, the United States Postal Service, any government 
corporation, and any disbursing official of the United States designated 
by the Secretary.
    Disposable pay has the same meaning as that term is defined in 5 CFR 
550.1103.
    Federal employee means a current employee of an agency, including a 
current member of the Armed Forces or a Reserve of the Armed Forces 
(Reserves), employees of the United States Postal Service, and seasonal 
and temporary employees.
    Federal employee records means records of Federal salary payments 
that a paying agency has certified to a disbursing official for 
disbursement.
    FMS means the Financial Management Service, a bureau of the 
Department of the Treasury.
    Paying agency means the agency that employs the Federal employee who 
owes the debt and authorizes the payment of his or her current pay. A 
paying agency also includes an agency that performs payroll services on 
behalf of the employing agency.
    Salary offset means administrative offset to collect a debt owed by 
a Federal employee from the current pay account of the employee.
    Secretary means the Secretary of the Treasury or his or her 
delegate.

[[Page 106]]

    Taxpayer identifying number means the identifying number described 
under section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (26 U.S.C. 
6109). For an individual, the taxpayer identifying number is the 
individual's social security number.
    (c) Establishment of the consortium. As required by the provisions 
of 5 U.S.C. 5514(a)(1), by issuance of this section, the Secretary 
establishes an interagency consortium to implement centralized salary 
offset computer matching. The consortium initially includes all agencies 
that disburse Federal salary payments, including but not limited to, 
FMS, the Department of Defense, the United States Postal Service, 
government corporations, and agencies with Treasury-designated 
disbursing officials. The membership of the consortium may be changed at 
the discretion of the Secretary, and the Secretary will be responsible 
for the ongoing coordination of the activities of the consortium.
    (d) Creditor agency participation. (1) As required under 5 U.S.C. 
5514(a)(1), creditor agencies shall participate at least annually in 
centralized salary offset computer matching. To meet this requirement, 
creditor agencies shall notify FMS of all past-due, legally enforceable 
debts delinquent for more than 180 days for purposes of administrative 
offset, as required under 31 U.S.C. 3716(c)(6). Additionally, creditor 
agencies may notify FMS of past-due, legally enforceable debts 
delinquent for less than 180 days for purposes of administrative offset.
    (2) Prior to submitting debts to FMS for purposes of administrative 
offset (including salary offset) and centralized salary offset computer 
matching, Federal agencies shall prescribe regulations in accordance 
with the requirements of 31 U.S.C. 3716 (administrative offset) and 5 
U.S.C. 5514 (salary offset).
    (3) Prior to submitting a debt to FMS for purposes of collection by 
administrative offset, including salary offset, creditor agencies shall 
provide written certification to FMS that:
    (i) The debt is past-due and legally enforceable in the amount 
submitted to FMS and that the creditor agency will ensure that 
collections (other than collections through offset) are properly 
credited to the debt;
    (ii) Except in the case of a judgment debt or as otherwise allowed 
by law, the debt is referred for offset within ten years after the 
agency's right of action accrues;
    (iii) The creditor agency has complied with the provisions of 31 
U.S.C. 3716 (administrative offset) and related regulations including, 
but not limited to, the provisions requiring that the creditor agency 
provide the debtor with applicable notices and opportunities for a 
review of the debt; and
    (iv) The creditor agency has complied with the provisions of 5 
U.S.C. 5514 (salary offset) and related regulations including, but not 
limited to, the provisions requiring that the creditor agency provide 
the debtor with applicable notices and opportunities for a hearing.
    (4) FMS may waive the certification requirement set forth in 
paragraph (d)(3)(iv) of this section as a prerequisite to submitting the 
debt to FMS. If FMS waives the certification requirement, before an 
offset occurs, the creditor agency shall provide the Federal employee 
with the notices and opportunities for a hearing as required by 5 U.S.C. 
5514 and applicable regulations, and shall certify to FMS that the 
requirements of 5 U.S.C. 5514 and applicable regulations have been met.
    (5) The creditor agency shall notify FMS immediately of any payments 
credited by the creditor agency to the debtor's account, other than 
credits for amounts collected by offset, after submission of the debt to 
FMS. The creditor agency also shall notify FMS immediately of any change 
in the status of the legal enforceability of the debt, for example, if 
the creditor agency receives notice that the debtor has filed for 
bankruptcy protection.
    (e) Centralized salary offset computer match. (1) Delinquent debt 
records will be compared with Federal employee records maintained by 
members of the consortium or paying agencies. The records will be 
compared to identify Federal employees who owe delinquent debts for 
purposes of collecting the debt by administrative offset. A match will 
occur when the taxpayer identifying number and name of a Federal 
employee are the same as the taxpayer

[[Page 107]]

identifying number and name of a debtor.
    (2) As authorized by the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3716(f), FMS, under 
a delegation of authority from the Secretary, has waived certain 
requirements of the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 
1988, 5 U.S.C. 552a, as amended, for administrative offset, including 
salary offset, upon written certification by the head of the creditor 
agency that the requirements of 31 U.S.C. 3716(a) have been met. 
Specifically, FMS has waived the requirements for a computer matching 
agreement contained in 5 U.S.C. 552a(o) and for post-match notice and 
verification contained in 5 U.S.C. 552a(p). The creditor agency will 
provide certification in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 
(d)(3)(iii) of this section.
    (f) Salary offset. When a match occurs and all other requirements 
for offset have been met, as required by the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 
3716(c) the disbursing official shall offset the Federal employee's 
salary payment to satisfy, in whole or part, the debt owed by the 
employee. Alternatively, the paying agency, on behalf of the disbursing 
official, may deduct the amount of the offset from an employee's 
disposable pay before the employee's salary payment is certified to a 
disbursing official for disbursement.
    (g) Offset amount. (1) The amount offset from a salary payment under 
this section shall be the lesser of:
    (i) The amount of the debt, including any interest, penalties and 
administrative costs; or
    (ii) An amount up to 15% of the debtor's disposable pay.
    (2) Alternatively, the amount offset may be an amount agreed upon, 
in writing, by the debtor and the creditor agency.
    (3) Offsets will continue until the debt, including any interest, 
penalties, and costs, is paid in full or otherwise resolved to the 
satisfaction of the creditor agency.
    (h) Priorities. (1) A levy pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 
1986 shall take precedence over other deductions under this section.
    (2) When a salary payment may be reduced to collect more than one 
debt, amounts offset under this section will be applied to a debt only 
after amounts offset have been applied to satisfy past due child support 
debts assigned to a State pursuant to 402(a)(26) or section 471(a)(17) 
of the Social Security Act.
    (i) Notice. (1) Before offsetting a salary payment, the disbursing 
official, or the paying agency on behalf of the disbursing official, 
shall notify the Federal employee in writing of the date deductions from 
salary will commence and of the amount of such deductions.
    (2)(i) When an offset occurs under this section, the disbursing 
official, or the paying agency on behalf of the disbursing official, 
shall notify the Federal employee in writing that an offset has occurred 
including:
    (A) A description of the payment and the amount of offset taken;
    (B) The identity of the creditor agency requesting the offset; and,
    (C) A contact point within the creditor agency that will handle 
concerns regarding the offset.
    (ii) The information described in paragraphs (i)(2)(i)(B) and 
(i)(2)(i)(C) of this section does not need to be provided to the Federal 
employee when the offset occurs if such information was included in a 
prior notice from the disbursing official or paying agency.
    (3) The disbursing official will advise each creditor agency of the 
names, mailing addresses, and taxpayer identifying numbers of the 
debtors from whom amounts of past-due, legally enforceable debt were 
collected and of the amounts collected from each debtor for that agency. 
The disbursing official will not advise the creditor agency of the 
source of payment from which such amounts were collected.
    (j) Fees. Agencies that perform centralized salary offset computer 
matching services may charge a fee sufficient to cover the full cost for 
such services. In addition, FMS, or a paying agency acting on behalf of 
FMS, may charge a fee sufficient to cover the full cost of implementing 
the administrative offset program. FMS may deduct the fees from amounts 
collected by offset or may bill the creditor agencies. Fees charged for 
offset shall be based on actual administrative offsets completed.
    (k) Disposition of amounts collected. The disbursing official 
conducting the offset will transmit amounts collected

[[Page 108]]

for debts, less fees charged under paragraph (j) of this section, to the 
appropriate creditor agency. If an erroneous offset payment is made to a 
creditor agency, the disbursing official will notify the creditor agency 
that an erroneous offset payment has been made. The disbursing official 
may deduct the amount of the erroneous offset payment from future 
amounts payable to the creditor agency. Alternatively, upon the 
disbursing official's request, the creditor agency shall return promptly 
to the disbursing official or the affected payee an amount equal to the 
amount of the erroneous payment (without regard to whether any other 
amounts payable to such agency have been paid). The disbursing official 
and the creditor agency shall adjust the debtor records appropriately.
[63 FR 23357, Apr. 28, 1998]



                Subpart B--Authorities Other Than Offset



Sec. 285.11  Administrative wage garnishment.

    (a) Purpose. This section provides procedures for Federal agencies 
to collect money from a debtor's disposable pay by means of 
administrative wage garnishment to satisfy delinquent nontax debt owed 
to the United States.
    (b) Scope. (1) This section applies to any Federal agency that 
administers a program that gives rise to a delinquent nontax debt owed 
to the United States and to any agency that pursues recovery of such 
debt.
    (2) This section shall apply notwithstanding any provision of State 
law.
    (3) Nothing in this section precludes the compromise of a debt or 
the suspension or termination of collection action in accordance with 
applicable law. See, for example, the Federal Claims Collection 
Standards (FCCS), 4 CFR parts 101-105.
    (4) The receipt of payments pursuant to this section does not 
preclude a Federal agency from pursuing other debt collection remedies, 
including the offset of Federal payments to satisfy delinquent nontax 
debt owed to the United States. A Federal agency may pursue such debt 
collection remedies separately or in conjunction with administrative 
wage garnishment.
    (5) This section does not apply to the collection of delinquent 
nontax debt owed to the United States from the wages of Federal 
employees from their Federal employment. Federal pay is subject to the 
Federal salary offset procedures set forth in 5 U.S.C. 5514 and other 
applicable laws.
    (6) Nothing in this section requires agencies to duplicate notices 
or administrative proceedings required by contract or other laws or 
regulations.
    (c) Definitions. As used in this section the following definitions 
shall apply:
    Agency means a department, agency, court, court administrative 
office, or instrumentality in the executive, judicial, or legislative 
branch of the Federal Government, including government corporations. For 
purposes of this section, agency means either the agency that 
administers the program that gave rise to the debt or the agency that 
pursues recovery of the debt.
    Business day means Monday through Friday. For purposes of 
computation, the last day of the period will be included unless it is a 
Federal legal holiday.
    Certificate of service means a certificate signed by an agency 
official indicating the nature of the document to which it pertains, the 
date of mailing of the document, and to whom the document is being sent.
    Day means calendar day. For purposes of computation, the last day of 
the period will be included unless it is a Saturday, a Sunday, or a 
Federal legal holiday.
    Debt or claim means any amount of money, funds or property that has 
been determined by an appropriate official of the Federal Government to 
be owed to the United States by an individual, including debt 
administered by a third party as an agent for the Federal Government. 
Delinquent nontax debt means any nontax debt that has not been paid by 
the date specified in the agency's initial written demand for payment, 
or applicable agreement, unless other satisfactory payment arrangements 
have been made. For purposes of this section, the terms ``debt'' and 
``claim'' are synonymous and refer to delinquent nontax debt.

[[Page 109]]

    Debtor means an individual who owes a delinquent nontax debt to the 
United States.
    Disposable pay means that part of the debtor's compensation 
(including, but not limited to, salary, bonuses, commissions, and 
vacation pay) from an employer remaining after the deduction of health 
insurance premiums and any amounts required by law to be withheld. For 
purposes of this section, ``amounts required by law to be withheld'' 
include amounts for deductions such as social security taxes and 
withholding taxes, but do not include any amount withheld pursuant to a 
court order.
    Employer means a person or entity that employs the services of 
others and that pays their wages or salaries. The term employer 
includes, but is not limited to, State and local Governments, but does 
not include an agency of the Federal Government.
    Garnishment means the process of withholding amounts from an 
employee's disposable pay and the paying of those amounts to a creditor 
in satisfaction of a withholding order.
    Withholding order means any order for withholding or garnishment of 
pay issued by an agency, or judicial or administrative body. For 
purposes of this section, the terms ``wage garnishment order'' and 
``garnishment order'' have the same meaning as ``withholding order.''
    (d) General rule. Whenever an agency determines that a delinquent 
debt is owed by an individual, the agency may initiate proceedings 
administratively to garnish the wages of the delinquent debtor.
    (e) Notice requirements. (1) At least 30 days before the initiation 
of garnishment proceedings, the agency shall mail, by first class mail, 
to the debtor's last known address a written notice informing the debtor 
of:
    (i) The nature and amount of the debt;
    (ii) The intention of the agency to initiate proceedings to collect 
the debt through deductions from pay until the debt and all accumulated 
interest, penalties and administrative costs are paid in full; and
    (iii) An explanation of the debtor's rights, including those set 
forth in paragraph (e)(2) of this section, and the time frame within 
which the debtor may exercise his or her rights.
    (2) The debtor shall be afforded the opportunity:
    (i) To inspect and copy agency records related to the debt;
    (ii) To enter into a written repayment agreement with the agency 
under terms agreeable to the agency; and
    (iii) For a hearing in accordance with paragraph (f) of this section 
concerning the existence or the amount of the debt or the terms of the 
proposed repayment schedule under the garnishment order. However, the 
debtor is not entitled to a hearing concerning the terms of the proposed 
repayment schedule if these terms have been established by written 
agreement under paragraph (e)(2)(ii) of this section.
    (3) The agency will keep a copy of a certificate of service 
indicating the date of mailing of the notice. The certificate of service 
may be retained electronically so long as the manner of retention is 
sufficient for evidentiary purposes.
    (f) Hearing--(1) In general. Agencies shall prescribe regulations 
for the conduct of administrative wage garnishment hearings consistent 
with this section or shall adopt this section without change by 
reference.
    (2) Request for hearing. The agency shall provide a hearing, which 
at the agency's option may be oral or written, if the debtor submits a 
written request for a hearing concerning the existence or amount of the 
debt or the terms of the repayment schedule (for repayment schedules 
established other than by written agreement under paragraph (e)(2)(ii)) 
of this section.
    (3) Type of hearing or review. (i) For purposes of this section, 
whenever an agency is required to afford a debtor a hearing, the agency 
shall provide the debtor with a reasonable opportunity for an oral 
hearing when the agency determines that the issues in dispute cannot be 
resolved by review of the documentary evidence, for example, when the 
validity of the claim turns on the issue of credibility or veracity.
    (ii) If the agency determines that an oral hearing is appropriate, 
the time

[[Page 110]]

and location of the hearing shall be established by the agency. An oral 
hearing may, at the debtor's option, be conducted either in-person or by 
telephone conference. All travel expenses incurred by the debtor in 
connection with an in-person hearing will be borne by the debtor. All 
telephonic charges incurred during the hearing will be the 
responsibility of the agency.
    (iii) In those cases when an oral hearing is not required by this 
section, an agency shall nevertheless accord the debtor a ``paper 
hearing,'' that is, an agency will decide the issues in dispute based 
upon a review of the written record. The agency will establish a 
reasonable deadline for the submission of evidence.
    (4) Effect of timely request. Subject to paragraph (f)(13) of this 
section, if the debtor's written request is received by the agency on or 
before the 15th business day following the mailing of the notice 
described in paragraph (e)(1) of this section, the agency shall not 
issue a withholding order under paragraph (g) of this section until the 
debtor has been provided the requested hearing and a decision in 
accordance with paragraphs (f)(10) and (f)(11) of this section has been 
rendered.
    (5) Failure to timely request a hearing. If the debtor's written 
request is received by the agency after the 15th business day following 
the mailing of the notice described in paragraph (e)(1) of this section, 
the agency shall provide a hearing to the debtor. However, the agency 
will not delay issuance of a withholding order unless the agency 
determines that the delay in filing the request was caused by factors 
over which the debtor had no control, or the agency receives information 
that the agency believes justifies a delay or cancellation of the 
withholding order.
    (6) Hearing official. A hearing official may be any qualified 
individual, as determined by the head of the agency, including an 
administrative law judge.
    (7) Procedure. After the debtor requests a hearing, the hearing 
official shall notify the debtor of:
    (i) The date and time of a telephonic hearing;
    (ii) The date, time, and location of an in-person oral hearing; or
    (iii) The deadline for the submission of evidence for a written 
hearing.
    (8) Burden of proof. (i) The agency will have the burden of going 
forward to prove the existence or amount of the debt.
    (ii) Thereafter, if the debtor disputes the existence or amount of 
the debt, the debtor must present by a preponderance of the evidence 
that no debt exists or that the amount of the debt is incorrect. In 
addition, the debtor may present evidence that the terms of the 
repayment schedule are unlawful, would cause a financial hardship to the 
debtor, or that collection of the debt may not be pursued due to 
operation of law.
    (9) Record. The hearing official must maintain a summary record of 
any hearing provided under this section. A hearing is not required to be 
a formal evidentiary-type hearing, however, witnesses who testify in 
oral hearings will do so under oath or affirmation.
    (10) Date of decision. The hearing official shall issue a written 
opinion stating his or her decision, as soon as practicable, but not 
later than sixty (60) days after the date on which the request for such 
hearing was received by the agency. If an agency is unable to provide 
the debtor with a hearing and render a decision within 60 days after the 
receipt of the request for such hearing:
    (i) The agency may not issue a withholding order until the hearing 
is held and a decision rendered; or
    (ii) If the agency had previously issued a withholding order to the 
debtor's employer, the agency must suspend the withholding order 
beginning on the 61st day after the receipt of the hearing request and 
continuing until a hearing is held and a decision is rendered.
    (11) Content of decision. The written decision shall include:
    (i) A summary of the facts presented;
    (ii) The hearing official's findings, analysis and conclusions; and
    (iii) The terms of any repayment schedules, if applicable.
    (12) Final agency action. The hearing official's decision will be 
the final agency action for the purposes of judicial review under the 
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 701 et seq.).

[[Page 111]]

    (13) Failure to appear. In the absence of good cause shown, a debtor 
who fails to appear at a hearing scheduled pursuant to paragraph (f)(4) 
of this section will be deemed as not having timely filed a request for 
a hearing.
    (g) Wage garnishment order. (1) Unless the agency receives 
information that the agency believes justifies a delay or cancellation 
of the withholding order, the agency shall send, by first class mail, a 
withholding order to the debtor's employer within 30 days after the 
debtor fails to make a timely request for a hearing (i.e., within 15 
business days after the mailing of the notice described in paragraph 
(e)(1) of this section), or, if a timely request for a hearing is made 
by the debtor, within 30 days after a final decision is made by the 
agency to proceed with garnishment.
    (2) The withholding order sent to the employer under paragraph 
(g)(1) of this section shall be in a form prescribed by the Secretary of 
the Treasury on the agency's letterhead and signed by the head of the 
agency or his/her delegatee. The order shall contain only the 
information necessary for the employer to comply with the withholding 
order. Such information includes the debtor's name, address, and social 
security number, as well as instructions for withholding and information 
as to where payments should be sent.
    (3) The agency will keep a copy of a certificate of service 
indicating the date of mailing of the order. The certificate of service 
may be retained electronically so long as the manner of retention is 
sufficient for evidentiary purposes.
    (h) Certification by employer. Along with the withholding order, the 
agency shall send to the employer a certification in a form prescribed 
by the Secretary of the Treasury. The employer shall complete and return 
the certification to the agency within the time frame prescribed in the 
instructions to the form. The certification will address matters such as 
information about the debtor's employment status and disposable pay 
available for withholding.
    (i) Amounts withheld. (1) After receipt of the garnishment order 
issued under this section, the employer shall deduct from all disposable 
pay paid to the applicable debtor during each pay period the amount of 
garnishment described in paragraph (i)(2) of this section.
    (2)(i) Subject to the provisions of paragraphs (i)(3) and (i)(4) of 
this section, the amount of garnishment shall be the lesser of:
    (A) The amount indicated on the garnishment order up to 15% of the 
debtor's disposable pay; or
    (B) The amount set forth in 15 U.S.C. 1673(a)(2) (Restriction on 
Garnishment). The amount set forth at 15 U.S.C. 1673(a)(2) is the amount 
by which a debtor's disposable pay exceeds an amount equivalent to 
thirty times the minimum wage. See 29 CFR 870.10.
    (3) When a debtor's pay is subject to withholding orders with 
priority the following shall apply:
    (i) Unless otherwise provided by Federal law, withholding orders 
issued under this section shall be paid in the amounts set forth under 
paragraph (i)(2) of this section and shall have priority over other 
withholding orders which are served later in time. Notwithstanding the 
foregoing, withholding orders for family support shall have priority 
over withholding orders issued under this section.
    (ii) If amounts are being withheld from a debtor's pay pursuant to a 
withholding order served on an employer before a withholding order 
issued pursuant to this section, or if a withholding order for family 
support is served on an employer at any time, the amounts withheld 
pursuant to the withholding order issued under this section shall be the 
lesser of:
    (A) The amount calculated under paragraph (i)(2) of this section, or
    (B) An amount equal to 25% of the debtor's disposable pay less the 
amount(s) withheld under the withholding order(s) with priority.
    (iii) If a debtor owes more than one debt to an agency, the agency 
may issue multiple withholding orders provided that the total amount 
garnished from the debtor's pay for such orders does not exceed the 
amount set forth in paragraph (i)(2) of this section. For purposes of 
this paragraph (i)(3)(iii), the term agency refers to the agency that is 
owed the debt.
    (4) An amount greater than that set forth in paragraphs (i)(2) and 
(i)(3) of

[[Page 112]]

this section may be withheld upon the written consent of debtor.
    (5) The employer shall promptly pay to the agency all amounts 
withheld in accordance with the withholding order issued pursuant to 
this section.
    (6) An employer shall not be required to vary its normal pay and 
disbursement cycles in order to comply with the withholding order.
    (7) Any assignment or allotment by an employee of his earnings shall 
be void to the extent it interferes with or prohibits execution of the 
withholding order issued under this section, except for any assignment 
or allotment made pursuant to a family support judgment or order.
    (8) The employer shall withhold the appropriate amount from the 
debtor's wages for each pay period until the employer receives 
notification from the agency to discontinue wage withholding. The 
garnishment order shall indicate a reasonable period of time within 
which the employer is required to commence wage withholding.
    (j) Exclusions from garnishment. The agency may not garnish the 
wages of a debtor who it knows has been involuntarily separated from 
employment until the debtor has been reemployed continuously for at 
least 12 months. The debtor has the burden of informing the agency of 
the circumstances surrounding an involuntary separation from employment.
    (k) Financial hardship. (1) A debtor whose wages are subject to a 
wage withholding order under this section, may, at any time, request a 
review by the agency of the amount garnished, based on materially 
changed circumstances such as disability, divorce, or catastrophic 
illness which result in financial hardship.
    (2) A debtor requesting a review under paragraph (k)(1) of this 
section shall submit the basis for claiming that the current amount of 
garnishment results in a financial hardship to the debtor, along with 
supporting documentation. Agencies shall consider any information 
submitted in accordance with procedures and standards established by the 
agency.
    (3) If a financial hardship is found, the agency shall downwardly 
adjust, by an amount and for a period of time agreeable to the agency, 
the amount garnished to reflect the debtor's financial condition. The 
agency will notify the employer of any adjustments to the amounts to be 
withheld.
    (l) Ending garnishment. (1) Once the agency has fully recovered the 
amounts owed by the debtor, including interest, penalties, and 
administrative costs consistent with the FCCS, the agency shall send the 
debtor's employer notification to discontinue wage withholding.
    (2) At least annually, an agency shall review its debtors' accounts 
to ensure that garnishment has been terminated for accounts that have 
been paid in full.
    (m) Actions prohibited by the employer. An employer may not 
discharge, refuse to employ, or take disciplinary action against the 
debtor due to the issuance of a withholding order under this section.
    (n) Refunds. (1) If a hearing official, at a hearing held pursuant 
to paragraph (f)(3) of this section, determines that a debt is not 
legally due and owing to the United States, the agency shall promptly 
refund any amount collected by means of administrative wage garnishment.
    (2) Unless required by Federal law or contract, refunds under this 
section shall not bear interest.
    (o) Right of action. The agency may sue any employer for any amount 
that the employer fails to withhold from wages owed and payable to an 
employee in accordance with paragraphs (g) and (i) of this section. 
However, a suit may not be filed before the termination of the 
collection action involving a particular debtor, unless earlier filing 
is necessary to avoid expiration of any applicable statute of 
limitations period. For purposes of this section, ``termination of the 
collection action'' occurs when the agency has terminated collection 
action in accordance with the FCCS or other applicable standards. In any 
event, termination of the collection action will have been deemed to 
occur if the agency has not received any payments to satisfy the debt 
from the particular debtor whose wages were subject to garnishment, in

[[Page 113]]

whole or in part, for a period of one (1) year.
[63 FR 25139, May 6, 1998]



Sec. 285.12  Transfer of debts to Treasury for debt collection.

    (a) Definitions. For purposes of this section:
    Agency means a department, agency, court, court administrative 
office, or instrumentality in the executive, judicial, or legislative 
branch of the Federal Government, including government corporations.
    Creditor agency means any Federal agency that is owed a debt.
    Debt means any amount of money, funds or property that has been 
determined by an appropriate official of the Federal government to be 
owed to the United States by a person. As used in this rule, the term 
``debt'' does not include debts arising under the Internal Revenue Code 
of 1986 or the tariff laws of the United States.
    FMS means the Financial Management Service, a bureau of the 
Department of the Treasury.
    Person means an individual, corporation, partnership, association, 
organization, State or local government, or any other type of entity 
other than a Federal agency.
    Secretary means the Secretary of the Treasury.
    (b) In general. Cross-servicing means that FMS, a Federal agency, or 
a unit or subdivision within a Federal agency, under a designation by 
the Secretary of the Treasury, is taking appropriate debt collection 
action on behalf of one or more Federal agencies or unit or subdivision 
thereof. Agencies which provide such cross-servicing are known as debt 
collection centers.
    (c) Mandatory transfer of debts to FMS. (1) Except as set forth in 
paragraph (d) of this section, a creditor agency shall transfer any debt 
that is more than 180 days delinquent to FMS for debt collection 
services. For accounting and reporting purposes, the debt remains on the 
books and records of the agency which transferred the debt.
    (2) On behalf of the creditor agency, FMS will take appropriate 
action to collect or compromise the transferred debt, or to suspend or 
terminate collection action thereon, in accordance with the statutory 
and regulatory requirements and authorities applicable to the debt and 
the action. Appropriate action to collect a debt may include referral to 
another debt collection center, a private collection contractor, or the 
Department of Justice for litigation. The creditor agency shall advise 
FMS, in writing, of any specific statutory or regulatory requirements 
pertaining to their debt and will agree, in writing, to a collection 
strategy which includes parameters for entering into compromise and 
repayments agreements with debtors.
    (3) A debt is considered 180 days delinquent for purposes of this 
section if it is 180 days past due and is legally enforceable. A debt is 
legally enforceable if there has been a final agency determination that 
the debt, in the amount stated, is due and there are no legal bars to 
collection action. Where, for example, a debt is the subject of a 
pending administrative review process required by statute or regulation 
and collection action during the review process is prohibited, the debt 
is not considered legally enforceable for purposes of mandatory transfer 
to FMS and is not to be transferred even if the debt is more than 180 
days past-due. Once there has been a final agency determination that the 
debt, in the amount stated, is due and there are no legal bars to 
collection action, however, any debt over 180 days delinquent must be 
immediately transferred to FMS. Nothing in this section is intended to 
impact the date of delinquency of a debt for other purposes such as for 
purposes of accruing interest and penalties.
    (d) Exceptions to mandatory transfer. (1) A creditor agency is not 
required to transfer a debt to FMS pursuant to paragraph (c)(1) of this 
section only during such period of time that the debt:
    (i) Is in litigation or foreclosure as described in paragraph (d)(2) 
of this section;
    (ii) Is scheduled for sale as described in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section;
    (iii) Is at a private collection contractor if the debt has been 
referred to a private collection contractor in accordance with paragraph 
(e) of this section;

[[Page 114]]

    (iv) Is at a debt collection center if the debt has been referred to 
a Treasury-designated debt collection center in accordance with 
paragraph (f) of this section;
    (v) Is being collected by internal offset as described in paragraph 
(d)(4) of this section; or
    (vi) Is covered by an exemption granted by the Secretary as 
described in paragraph (d)(5) of this section.
    (2)(i) A debt is in litigation if:
    (A) The debt has been referred to the Attorney General for 
litigation by the creditor agency; or
    (B) The debt is the subject of proceedings pending in a court of 
competent jurisdiction, including bankruptcy proceedings, whether 
initiated by the creditor agency, the debtor, or any other party.
    (ii) A debt is in foreclosure if:
    (A)(1) Collateral securing the debt is the subject of judicial 
foreclosure proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction; or
    (2) Notice has been issued that collateral securing the debt will be 
foreclosed upon, liquidated, sold, or otherwise transferred pursuant to 
applicable law in a nonjudicial proceeding; and
    (B) The creditor agency anticipates that proceeds will be available 
from the liquidation of the collateral for application to the debt.
    (3) A debt is scheduled for sale if:
    (i) The debt will be disposed of under an asset sales program within 
one (1) year after becoming eligible for sale; or
    (ii) The debt will be disposed of under an asset sales program and a 
schedule established by the creditor agency and approved by the Director 
of the Office of Management and Budget.
    (4) A debt is being collected by internal offset if a creditor 
agency expects the debt to be collected in full within three (3) years 
from the date of delinquency through internal offset. ``Internal 
offset'' means withholding of funds payable by the creditor agency to 
the debtor to satisfy, in whole or part, the debt owed to the creditor 
agency by that debtor.
    (5)(i) Upon the written request of the head of an agency, or as the 
Secretary may determine on his/her own initiative, the Secretary may 
exempt any class of debts from the application of the requirement 
described in paragraph (c)(1) of this section. In determining whether to 
exempt a class of debts, the Secretary will determine whether exemption 
is in the best interests of the Government after considering the 
following factors:
    (A) Whether an exemption is the best means to protect the 
government's financial interest, taking into consideration the number, 
dollar amount, age and collection rates of the debts for which exemption 
is requested;
    (B) Whether the nature of the program under which the delinquencies 
have arisen is such that the transfer of such debts would interfere with 
program goals; and
    (C) Whether an exemption would be consistent with the purposes of 
the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA), Pub. L. 104-134, 110 
Stat. 1321-358 (April 26, 1996).
    (ii) Requests for exemptions must clearly identify the class of 
debts for which an exemption is sought and must explain how application 
of the factors listed above to that class of debts warrants an 
exemption.
    (e) Schedule of private collection contractors. FMS will maintain a 
schedule of private collection contractors eligible for referral of 
debts from FMS, other debt collection centers, and creditor agencies for 
collection action. An agency with debt which has not been transferred to 
FMS or referred to another debt collection center, for example, debt 
that is less than 180 days delinquent, may refer such debt to a private 
collection contractor listed on FMS' schedule of private collection 
contractors provided they do so in accordance with procedures 
established by FMS. Alternatively, an agency may refer debt that is less 
than 180 days delinquent to a private collection contractor pursuant to 
a contract between the creditor agency and the private collection 
contractor, as authorized by law.
    (f) Debt collection centers. A debt collection center is a Federal 
agency or a unit or subagency within a Federal agency that has been 
designated by the Secretary of the Treasury to collect debt owed to the 
United States. FMS is a debt collection center. Debt collection centers 
will take action upon a

[[Page 115]]

debt in accordance with the statutory or regulatory requirements and 
other authorities that apply to the debt or to the particular action 
being taken. Debt collection centers may, on behalf of the creditor 
agency, subject to the terms under which the debt collection center has 
been designated as such by the Secretary, take any action to collect, 
compromise, suspend or terminate collection action on debts in 
accordance with terms and conditions agreed upon in writing by the 
creditor agency and the debt collection center or FMS.
    (g) Administrative offset. As described in paragraph (c) of this 
section, under the DCIA agencies are required to transfer all debts over 
180 days delinquent to FMS for purposes of debt collection (i.e., cross-
servicing). Agencies are also required, under the DCIA, to notify the 
Secretary of all debts over 180 days delinquent for purposes of 
administrative offset. Administrative offset is one type of collection 
tool used by FMS and Treasury-designated debt collection centers to 
collect debts transferred under this section. Thus, by transferring debt 
to FMS or to a Treasury-designated debt collection center under this 
section, Federal agencies will satisfy the requirement to notify the 
Secretary of debts for purposes of administrative offset and duplicate 
referrals are not required. A debt which is not transferred to FMS for 
purposes of debt collection, however, such as a debt which falls within 
one of the exempt categories listed in paragraph (d) of this section, 
nevertheless, may be subject to the DCIA requirement of notification to 
the Secretary for purposes of administrative offset.
    (h) Voluntary referral of debts less than 180 days delinquent. A 
creditor agency may refer any debt that is less than 180 days delinquent 
to FMS or, with the consent of FMS, to a Treasury-designated debt 
collection center for debt collection services.
    (i) Certification. Before a debt may be transferred to FMS or 
another debt collection center, the head of the creditor agency or his 
or her delegatee must certify, in writing, that the debts being 
transferred are valid, legally enforceable, and that there are no legal 
bars to collection. Creditor agencies must also certify that they have 
complied with all prerequisites to a particular collection action under 
the laws, regulations or policies applicable to the agency unless the 
creditor agency has requested, and FMS has agreed, to do so on the 
creditor agency's behalf. The creditor agency shall notify FMS 
immediately of any change in the status of the legal enforceability of 
the debt, for example, if the creditor agency receives notice that the 
debtor has filed for bankruptcy protection.
    (j) Fees. FMS and other debt collection centers may charge fees for 
debt collection services. Fees must be based on costs, however, fees 
paid to recover amounts owed may not exceed amounts collected. Nothing 
in this rule precludes a credit agency from agreeing to pay fees for 
debt collection services which are not based on amounts collected. FMS 
and debt collection centers are authorized to retain fees from amounts 
collected and may deposit and use such fees in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 
3711(g). Fees charged by FMS and other debt collection centers may be 
added on to the debt as an administrative cost if authorized under 
3717(e).

                         Subpart B--Registration



Sec. 306.10  General.

    The registration used must express the actual ownership of a 
security and may not include any restriction on the authority of the 
owner to dispose of it in any manner, except as otherwise specifically 
provided in these regulations. The Treasury Department reserves the 
right to treat the registration as conclusive of ownership. Requests for 
registration should be clear, accurate, and complete, conform with one 
of the forms set forth in this subpart, and include appropriate taxpayer 
identifying numbers.2 The registration of all bonds owned by 
the same person, organization, or fiduciary should be uniform with 
respect to the name of the owner and, in the case of a fiduciary, the 
description of the fiduciary capacity. Individual owners should be 
designated by the names by which they are ordinarily known or under 
which they do business, preferably including at least one full given 
name. The name of an individual may be preceded by any applicable title, 
as, for example, Mrs., Miss, Ms., Dr., or Rev., or followed by a 
designation such as M.D., D.D., Sr., or Jr. Any other similar suffix 
should be included when ordinarily used or when necessary to distinguish 
the owner from a member of his family. A married woman's own given name, 
not that of her husband, must be used, for example, Mrs. Mary A. Jones, 
not Mrs. Frank B. Jones. The address should include, where appropriate, 
the number and street, route, or any other local feature and the Zip 
Code.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2 Taxpayer identifying numbers are not required for 
foreign governments, nonresident aliens not engaged in trade or business 
within the United States, international organizations and foreign 
corporations not engaged in trade or business and not having an office 
or place of business or a financial or paying agent within the United 
States, and other persons or organizations as may be exempted from 
furnishing such numbers under regulations of the Internal Revenue 
Service.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sec. 306.11  Forms of registration for transferable securities.

    The forms of registration described below are authorized for 
transferable securities:
    (a) Natural persons in their own right. In the names of natural 
persons who are not under any legal disability, in their own right, 
substantially as follows:
    (1) One person. In the name of one individual. Examples:

    John A. Doe (123-45-6789).
    Mrs. Mary C. Doe. (123-45-6789).
    Miss Elizabeth Jane Doe (123-45-6789).


An individual who is sole proprietor of a business conducted under a 
trade name may include a reference to the trade name. Examples:

    John A. Doe, doing business as Doe's Home Appliance Store (123-45-
6789).

                                   or

    John A. Doe (123-45-6789), doing business as Doe's Home Appliance 
Store.

    (2) Two or more persons--general. Securities will not be registered 
in the name of one person payable on death to another, or in any form 
which purports to authorize transfer by less than all the persons named 
in the registration (or all the survivors).3 Securities will 
not be registered in the forms John A. Doe and Mrs. Mary C. Doe, or 
either of them or William C. Doe or Henry J. Doe, or either of them and 
securities so assigned will be treated as though the words or either of 
them do not appear in

[[Page 121]]

the assignments. The taxpayer identifying number of any of the joint 
owners may be shown on securities registered in joint ownership form.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3 Warning. Difference Between Transferable Treasury 
Securities Registered in the Names of Two or More Persons and United 
States Savings Bonds in Coownership Form. The effect of registering 
Treasury securities to which these regulations apply in the names of two 
or more persons differs decidedly from registration of savings bonds in 
coownership form. Savings bonds are virtually redeemable on demand at 
the option of either coowner on his signature alone. Transferable 
Treasury securities are redeemable only at maturity or upon prior call 
by the Secretary of the Treasury.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (i) With right of survivorship. In the names of two or more 
individuals with right of survivorship. Examples:

    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) or Mrs. Mary C. Doe or the survivor.
    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) or Mrs. Mary C. Doe or Miss Mary Ann Doe 
or the survivors or survivor.
    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) or Mrs. Mary C. Doe.
    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) and Mrs. Mary C. Doe.
    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) and Mrs. Mary C. Doe as joint tenants with 
right of survivorship and not as tenants in common.


Limited to husband and wife:

    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) and Mrs. Mary C. Doe, as tenants by the 
entireties.

    (ii) Without right of survivorship. In the names of two or more 
individuals in such manner as to preclude the right of survivorship. 
Examples:

    John A. Doe (123-45-6789) and William B. Doe as tenants in common.
    John A. Jones as natural guardian of Henry B. Jones, a minor, and 
Robert C. Jones (123-45-6789), without right of survivorship.

Limited to husband and wife:

    Charles H. Brown (123-45-6789) and Ann R. Brown, as partners in 
community.

    (b) Minors and incompetents--(1) Natural guardians of minors. A 
security may be registered in the name of a natural guardian of a minor 
for whose estate no legal guardian or similar representative has legally 
qualified. Example:

    John R. Jones as natural guardian of Henry M. Jones, a minor (123-
45-6789).

Either parent with whom the minor resides, or if he does not reside with 
either parent, the person who furnishes his chief support, will be 
recognized as his natural guardian and will be considered a fiduciary. 
Registration in the name of a minor in his own right as owner or as 
joint owner is not authorized. Securities so registered, upon 
qualification of the natural guardian, will be treated as though 
registered in the name of the natural guardian in that capacity.
    (2) Custodian under statute authorizing gifts to minors. A security 
may be purchased as a gift to a minor under a gifts to minors statute in 
effect in the State in which either the donor or the minor resides. The 
security should be registered as provided in the statute, with an 
identifying reference to the statute if the registration does not 
clearly identify it. Examples:

    William C. Jones, as custodian for John A. Smith, a minor (123-45-
6789), under the California Uniform Gifts to Minors Act.
    Robert C. Smith, as custodian for Henry L. Brown, a minor (123-45-
6789), under the laws of Georgia; Chapter 48-3, Code of Ga. Anno.

    (3) Incompetents not under guardianship. Registration in the form 
John A. Brown, an incompetent (123-45-6789), under voluntary 
guardianship, is permitted only on reissue after a voluntary guardian 
has qualified for the purpose of collecting interest. (See 
Secs. 306.37(c)(2) and 306.57(c)(2)). Otherwise, registration in the 
name of an incompetent not under legal guardianship is not authorized.
    (c) Executors, administrators, guardians, and similar 
representatives or fiduciaries. A security may be registered in the 
names of legally qualified executors, administrators, guardians, 
conservators, or similar representatives or fiduciaries of a single 
estate. The names and capacities of all the representatives or 
fiduciaries, as shown in their letters of appointment, must be included 
in the registration and must be followed by an adequate identifying 
reference to the estate. Examples:

    John Smith, executor of will (or administrator of estate) of Henry 
J. Jones, deceased (12-3456789).
    William C. Jones, guardian (or conservator, etc.) of estate of James 
D. Brown, a minor (or an incompetent) (123-45-6789).

    (d) Life tenant under will. A security may be registered in the name 
of a life tenant followed by an adequate identifying reference to the 
will. Example:

    Anne B. Smith, life tenant under the will of Adam A. Smith, deceased 
(12-3456789).

The life tenant will be considered a fiduciary.
    (e) Private trust estates. A security may be registered in the name 
and title of the trustee or trustees of a single

[[Page 122]]

duly constituted private trust, followed by an adequate identifying 
reference to the authority governing the trust. Examples:

    John Jones and Blank Trust Co., Albany, NY, trustees under will of 
Sarah Jones, deceased (12-3456789).
    John Doe and Richard Roe, trustees under agreement with Henry Jones 
dated February 9, 1970 (12-3456789).


The names of all trustees, in the form used in the trust instrument, 
must be included in the registration, except as follows:
    (1) If there are several trustees designated as a board or 
authorized to act as a unit, their names should be omitted and the words 
Board of Trustees substituted for the word trustees. Example:

    Board of Trustees of Blank Co. Retirement Fund, under collective 
bargaining agreement dated June 30, 1970 (12-3456789).

    (2) If the trustees do not constitute a board or otherwise act as a 
unit, and are either too numerous to be designated in the inscription by 
names and title, or serve for limited terms, some or all of the names 
may be omitted. Examples:

    John Smith, Henry Jones, et al., trustees under will of Henry J. 
Smith, deceased (12-3456789).
    Trustees under will of Henry J. Smith, deceased (12-3456789).
    Trustees of Retirement Fund of Industrial Manufacturing Co., under 
directors' resolution of June 30, 1950 (12-3456789).

    (f) Private organizations (corporations, unincorporated associations 
and partnerships). A security may be registered in the name of any 
private corporation, unincorporated association, or partnership, 
including a nominee, which for purposes of these regulations is treated 
as the owner. The full legal name of the organization, as set forth in 
its charter, articles of incorporation, constitution, partnership 
agreement, or other authority from which its powers are derived, must be 
included in the registration and may be followed, if desired, by a 
reference to a particular account or fund, other than a trust fund, in 
accordance with the rules and examples given below:
    (1) A corporation. The name of a business, fraternal, religious, or 
other private corporation must be followed by descriptive words 
indicating the corporate status unless the term corporation or the 
abbreviation Inc. is part of the name or the name is that of a 
corporation or association organized under Federal law, such as a 
national bank or Federal savings and loan association. Examples:

    Smith Manufacturing Co., a corporation (12-3456789).
    The Standard Manufacturing Corp. (12-3456789).
    Jones & Brown, Inc.--Depreciation Acct. (12-3456789).
    First National Bank of Albemarle (12- 3456789).
    Abco & Co., Inc., a nominee corporation (12-3456789).

    (2) An unincorporated association. The name of a lodge, club, labor 
union, veterans' organization, religious society, or similar self-
governing organization which is not incorporated (whether or not it is 
chartered by or affiliated with a parent organization which is 
incorporated) must be followed by the words an unincorporated 
association. Examples:

    American Legion Post No. --, Department of the D.C., an 
unincorporated association (12-3456789).
    Local Union No. 100, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, an 
unincorporated association (12-3456789).


Securities should not be registered in the name of an unincorporated 
association if the legal title to its property in general, or the legal 
title to the funds with which the securities are to be purchased, is 
held by trustees. In such a case the securities should be registered in 
the title of the trustees in accordance with paragraph (e) of this 
section. The term unincorporated association should not be used to 
describe a trust fund, a partnership or a business conducted under a 
trade name.
    (3) A partnership. The name of a partnership must be followed by the 
words a partnership. Example:

    Smith & Brown, a partnership (12-3456789).
    Acme Novelty Co., a limited partnership (12-3456789).
    Abco & Co., a nominee partnership (12-3456789).

    (g) States, public bodies, and corporations and public officers. A 
security may be registered in the name of a State or

[[Page 123]]

county, city, town, village, school district, or other political entity, 
public body or corporation established by law (including a board, 
commission, administration, authority or agency) which is the owner or 
official custodian of public funds, other than trust funds, or in the 
full legal title of the public officer having custody. Examples:

    State of Maine.
    Town of Rye, NY.
    Maryland State Highway Administration.
    Treasurer, City of Springfield, IL.
    Treasurer of Rhode Island--State Forestry Fund.

    (h) States, public officers, corporations or bodies as trustees. A 
security may be registered in the title of a public officer or in the 
name of a State or county or a public corporation or public body acting 
as trustee under express authority of law. An appropriate reference to 
the statute creating the trust may be included in the registration. 
Examples:

    Insurance Commissioner of Pennsylvania, trustee for benefit of 
policyholders of Blank Insurance Co. (12-3456789), under Sec. --, Pa. 
Stats.
    Rhode Island Investment Commission, trustee of General Sinking Fund

Sec. 306.12  Errors in registration.

    If an erroneously inscribed security is received, it should not be 
altered in any respect, but the Bureau, a Federal Reserve bank or branch 
should be furnished full particulars concerning the error and asked to 
furnish instructions.



Sec. 306.13  Nontransferable securities.

    Upon authorized reissue, Treasury Bonds, Investment Series B--1975-
80, may be registered in the forms set forth in Sec. 306.11.



              Subpart C--Transfers, Exchanges and Reissues



Sec. 306.15  Transfers and exchanges of securities--closed periods.

    (a) General. The transfer of registered securities should be made by 
assignment in accordance with subpart F of this part. Transferable 
registered securities are eligible for denominational exchange and 
exchange for bearer securities. Bearer securities are eligible for 
denominational exchange, and when so provided in the offering circular, 
or eligible for exchange for registered securities. Specific 
instructions for issuance and delivery of the new securities, signed by 
the owner or his authorized representative, must accompany the 
securities presented. (Form PD 3905 or PD 1827, as appropriate, may be 
used.) Denominational exchanges, exchanges of Treasury Bonds, Investment 
Series B--1975-80, for the current series of EA or EO 1\1/2\ percent 5-
year Treasury notes, and optional redemption of bonds at par as provided 
in Sec. 306.28 may be made at any time. Securities presented for 
transfer or for exchange for bearer securities of the same issue must be 
received by the Bureau not less than 1 full month before the date on 
which the securities mature or become redeemable pursuant to a call for 
redemption before maturity. Any security so presented which is received 
too late to comply with this provision will be accepted for payment 
only.
    (b) Closing of transfer books. The transfer books are closed for one 
full month preceding interest payment dates and call or maturity dates. 
If the date set for closing of the transfer books falls on Saturday, 
Sunday, or a legal holiday, the books will be closed as of the close of 
business on the last business day preceding that date. The books are 
reopened on the first business day following the date on which interest 
falls due. Registered securities which have not matured or been called, 
submitted for transfer, reissue, or exchange for coupon securities, and 
coupon securities which have not matured or been called, submitted for 
exchange for registered securities, which are received during the period 
the books for that loan are closed, will be processed on or after the 
date such books are reopened. If registered securities are received for 
transfer or exchange for bearer securities, or coupon securities are 
received for exchange for registered securities, during the time the 
books are closed for payment of final interest at maturity or call, 
unless otherwise

[[Page 124]]

provided in the offering circular or notice of call, the following 
action will be taken:
    (1) Payment of final interest will be made to the registered owner 
of record on the date the books were closed.
    (2) Payment of principal will be made to:
    (i) The assignee under a proper assignment of the securities, or
    (ii) If the securities have been assigned for exchange for bearer 
securities, to the registered owner of record on the date the books were 
closed.



Sec. 306.16  Exchanges of registered securities.

    No assignments will be required for:
    (a) Authorized denominational exchanges of registered securities for 
like securities in the same names and forms of registration and
    (b) Redemption-exchanges, or prefundings, or advance refundings in 
the same names and forms as appear in the registration or assignments of 
the securities surrendered.



Sec. 306.17  Exchanges of registered securities for coupon securities.

    Registered securities submitted for exchange for coupon securities 
should be assigned to ``The Secretary of the Treasury for exchange for 
coupon securities to be delivered to (inserting the name and address of 
the person to whom delivery of the coupon securities is to be made).'' 
Assignments to ``The Secretary of the Treasury for exchange for coupon 
securities,'' or assignments in blank will also be accepted. The coupon 
securities issued upon exchange will have all unmatured coupons 
attached.



Sec. 306.18  Exchanges of coupon securities for registered securities.

    Coupon securities presented for exchange for registered securities 
should have all matured interest coupons detached. All unmatured coupons 
should be attached, except that if presented when the transfer books are 
closed (in which case the exchange will be effected on or after the date 
on which the books are reopened), the next maturing coupons should be 
detached and held for collection in ordinary course when due. If any 
coupons which should be attached are missing, the securities must be 
accompanied by a remittance in an amount equal to the face amount of the 
missing coupons. The new registered securities will bear interest from 
the interest payment date next preceding the date on which the exchange 
is made.



Sec. 306.19  Denominational exchanges of coupon securities.

    All matured interest coupons and all unmatured coupons likely to 
mature before an exchange can be completed should be detached from 
securities presented for denominational exchange. All unmatured coupons 
should be attached. If any are missing, the securities must be 
accompanied by a remittance in an amount equal to the face amount of the 
missing coupons. The new coupon securities will have all unmatured 
coupons attached.



Sec. 306.20  Reissue of registered transferable securities.

    Assignments are not required for reissue of registered transferable 
securities in the name(s) of:
    (a) The surviving joint owner(s) of securities registered in the 
names of or assigned to two or more persons, unless the registration or 
assignment includes words which preclude the right of survivorship,
    (b) A succeeding fiduciary or other lawful successor,
    (c) A remainderman, upon termination of a life estate,
    (d) An individual, corporation or unincorporated association whose 
name has been legally changed,
    (e) A corporation or unincorporated association which is the lawful 
successor to another corporation or unincorporated association, and
    (f) A successor in title to a public officer or body.

Evidence of survivorship, succession, or change of name, as appropriate, 
must be furnished. The appropriate taxpayer identifying number also must 
be furnished if the registration of the securities submitted does not 
include such number for the person or organization to be named on the 
reissued securities.

estate, or the distributees of a trust estate, and
    (c) State supervisory authorities in pursuance of any pledge 
required of the owner under State law, or upon termination of the pledge

year Treasury notes must bear duly executed assignments to ``The 
Secretary of the Treasury for exchange for the current series of EA or 
EO Treasury notes to be delivered to (inserting the name and address of 
the person to whom the notes are to be delivered).'' The notes will bear 
the April 1 or October 1 date next preceding the date the bonds, duly 
assigned with supporting evidence, if necessary, are received by the 
Bureau or a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch. Interest accrued at the rate 
of 2\3/4\ percent on the bonds surrendered from the next preceding 
interest payment date to the date of exchange will be credited, and 
interest at the rate of 1\1/2\ percent on the notes for the same period 
will be charged and the difference will be paid to the owner.



Sec. 306.23  Securities eligible to be held in the TREASURY DIRECT Book-entry Securities System.

    (a) Eligible issues. The Secretary will, from time to time, cause to 
be published in the Federal Register a notice describing those series of 
Treasury issues of bonds and notes issued before August 1, 1986, that 
will be eligible for conversion to the TREASURY DIRECT Book-entry 
Securities System. The notice shall specify the period during which 
requests for conversion will be accepted.
    (b) Establishment of TREASURY DIRECT account. To convert a bearer or 
registered security to book-entry form to be held in TREASURY DIRECT, 
the owner(s) must establish at the time of conversion, or prior thereto, 
an account in TREASURY DIRECT in accordance with Sec. 357.20 of part 
357. Similarly, to transfer to TREASURY DIRECT a security held in book-
entry form under subpart O of this part, the owner(s) must establish at 
the time of transfer, or prior thereto, an account in TREASURY DIRECT in 
accordance with Sec. 357.20 of part 357.
    (c) Procedure for conversion of bearer security. To convert a bearer 
security to TREASURY DIRECT, the owner(s) thereof must present it to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or the Department of the Treasury, accompanied by a 
request for conversion, which must include the information needed for 
establishing a TREASURY DIRECT account, unless such account has been 
previously established, and is identified by its number in the request.
    (d) Procedures for conversion of registered security. To convert a 
registered security to TREASURY DIRECT, the owner(s) thereof must 
execute an assignment in accordance with subpart F of this part. The 
assignment must be in substantially the following form: ``To the 
Secretary of the Treasury for conversion to book-entry and deposit in 
TREASURY DIRECT,''. The security should be accompanied by the 
information needed for establishing the TREASURY DIRECT account, or 
where an account has been previously established, the above assignment 
should be reworded to include the account number.
    (e) Procedure for transfer of book-entry security held under subpart 
O. To transfer a book-entry security held under subpart O of this part, 
the owner(s) must arrange with the bank or other entity where the 
security is being held to transfer the same to TREASURY DIRECT. No such 
transfer will be accepted unless a TREASURY DIRECT account has 
previously been established and the number thereof is shown in the 
transfer request.
    (f) Terms and conditions of securities held in TREASURY DIRECT. An 
eligible security held in TREASURY DIRECT shall be subject to subpart C 
and other applicable portions of part 357, and the

[[Page 126]]

provisions of part 306 shall not apply thereto.
    (g) Re-conversion from TREASURY DIRECT to definitive form or to 
book-entry under subpart O. The owner(s) of a security converted or 
transferred to TREASURY DIRECT in the manner herein provided may, by 
executing an appropriate transaction request, transfer the book-entry 
security to a book-entry account held under the provisions of subpart O 
of this part. Thereafter, to the extent that the security was originally 
eligible for such conversion the book-entry security held under subpart 
O may be converted to one in registered or bearer form. Securities 
transferred from TREASURY DIRECT under this subsection shall be 
thereupon subject to the provisions of part 306, and part 357 shall no 
longer apply thereto.
[53 FR 15554, May 2, 1988]



Sec. 306.24  Collection of fees on definitive securities.

    A fee shall be charged for each definitive security, as defined in 
Sec. 306.115 (a), issued as a result of a transfer, exchange, reissue, 
withdrawal from book-entry, or the granting of relief on account of 
loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement. The applicable fee, 
and the basis for its determination, will be published by notice in the 
Federal Register.
[60 FR 4377, Jan. 23, 1995]



                    Subpart D--Redemption or Payment



Sec. 306.25  Presentation and surrender.

    (a) General. Securities, whether in registered or bearer form, are 
payable in regular course of business at maturity unless called for 
redemption before maturity in accordance with their terms, in which case 
they will be payable in regular course of business on the date of call. 
The Secretary of the Treasury may provide for the exchange of maturing 
or called securities, or in advance of call or maturity, may afford 
owners the opportunity of exchanging a security for another security 
pursuant to a prerefunding or an advance refunding offer. Registered 
securities should be presented and surrendered for redemption to the 
Bureau, a Federal Reserve Bank or branch, and bearer securities to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or branch.4 No assignments or evidence 
in support of assignments will be required by or on behalf of the 
registered owner or assignee for redemption for his or its account, or 
for redemption-exchange, or exchange pursuant to a prerefunding or an 
advance refunding offer, if the new securities are to be registered in 
exactly the same names and forms as appear in the registrations or 
assignments of the securities surrendered. To the extent appropriate, 
these rules also apply to securities registered in the title of public 
officers who are official custodians of public funds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    4 See Sec. 306.28 for presentation and surrender of bonds 
eligible for use in payment of Federal estate taxes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) ``Overdue'' securities. If a bearer security or a registered 
security assigned in blank, or to bearer, or so assigned as to become in 
effect payable to bearer, is presented and surrendered for redemption 
after it has become overdue, the Secretary of the Treasury will 
ordinarily require satisfactory proof of ownership. (Form PD 1071 may be 
used.) A security shall be considered to be overdue after the lapse of 
the following periods of time from its face maturity:
    (1) One month for securities issued for a term of 1 year or less.
    (2) Three months for securities issued for a term of more than 1 
year but not in excess of 7 years.
    (3) Six months for securities issued for a term of more than 7 
years.
[38 FR 7078, Mar. 15, 1973; 38 FR 8432, Apr. 2, 1973]



Sec. 306.26  Redemption of registered securities at maturity, upon prior call, or for prerefunding or advance refunding.

    Registered securities presented and surrendered for redemption at 
maturity or pursuant to a call for redemption before maturity need not 
be assigned, unless the owner desires that payment be made to some other 
person, in which case assignments should be made to ``The Secretary of 
the

[[Page 127]]

Treasury for redemption for the account of (inserting name and address 
of person to whom payment is to be made).'' Specific instructions for 
the issuance and delivery of the redemption check, signed by the owner 
or his authorized representative, must accompany the securities, unless 
included in the assignment. (Form PD 3905 may be used.) Payment of the 
principal will be made either:
    (a) By check drawn on the United States Treasury to the order of the 
person entitled and mailed in accordance with the instructions received, 
or
    (b) Upon appropriate request, by crediting the amount in a member 
bank's account with the Federal Reserve Bank of its District.

Securities presented for prerefunding or advance refunding should be 
assigned as provided in the prerefunding or advance refunding offer.



Sec. 306.27  Redemption of bearer securities at maturity, upon prior call, or for advance refunding or prerefunding.

    All interest coupons due and payable on or before the date of 
maturity or date fixed in the call for redemption before maturity should 
be detached from coupon securities presented for redemption and should 
be collected separately in regular course. All coupons bearing dates 
subsequent to the date fixed in a call for redemption, or offer of 
prerefunding or advance refunding, should be left attached to the 
securities. If any such coupons are missing, the full face amount 
thereof will be deducted from the payment to be made upon redemption or 
the prerefunding or advance refunding adjustment unless satisfactory 
evidence of their destruction is submitted. Any amounts so deducted will 
be held in the Department to provide for adjustments or refunds in the 
event it should be determined that the missing coupons were subsequently 
presented or their destruction is later satisfactorily established. In 
the absence of other instructions, payment or bearer securities will be 
made by check drawn to the order of the person presenting and 
surrendering the securities and mailed to him at his address, as given 
in the advice accompanying the securities. (Form PD 3905 may be used.) A 
Federal Reserve Bank, upon appropriate request, may make payment to a 
member bank from which bearer securities are received by crediting the 
amount of the proceeds of redemption to the member bank's account.



Sec. 306.28  Optional redemption of Treasury bonds at par (before maturity or call redemption date) and application of the proceeds in payment of Federal estate 
          taxes.

    (a) General. Treasury bonds to be redeemed at par for the purpose of 
applying the entire amount of principal and accrued interest to payment 
of the Federal estate tax on a decedent's estate 5 must be 
presented and surrendered to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the 
Bureau. They should be accompanied by Form PD 1782, fully completed and 
duly executed in accordance with the instructions on the form, and 
evidence as described therein. Redemption will be made at par plus 
accrued interest from the last preceding interest payment date to the 
date of redemption, except that if registered bonds are received by a 
Federal Reserve bank or branch or the Bureau within 1 month preceding an 
interest payment date for redemption before that date, a deduction will 
be made for interest from the date of redemption to the interest payment 
date, and a check for the full 6 months' interest will be paid in due 
course. The proceeds of redemption will be deposited to the credit of 
the Internal Revenue Service Center designated in Form PD 1782, and the 
representative of the estate will be notified of the deposit. A formal 
receipt may be obtained upon request addressed to the Center.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    5 Certain issues of Treasury bonds are redeemable at par 
and accrued interest upon the death of the owner, at the option of the 
representative of, or if none, the persons entitled to, his estate, for 
the purpose of having the entire proceeds applied in payment of the 
Federal estate tax on the decedent's estate, in accordance with the 
terms of the offering circulars cited on the face of the bonds. A 
current list of eligible issues may be obtained from any Federal Reserve 
bank or branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) Conditions. The bonds presented for redemption under this 
section must have:

[[Page 128]]

    (1) Been owned by the decedent at the time of his death and
    (2) Thereupon constituted part of his estate, as determined by the 
following rules in the case of joint ownership, partnership, and trust 
holdings:
    (i) Joint ownerships. Bonds held by the decedent at the time of his 
death in joint ownership with another person or persons will be deemed 
to have met the above conditions either:
    (A) To the extent to which the bonds actually became the property of 
the decedent's estate, or
    (B) In an amount not to exceed the amount of the Federal estate tax 
which the surviving joint owner or owners is required to pay on account 
of such bonds and other jointly held property.6
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    6 Substantially the same rule applies to community property 
except that upon the death of either spouse bonds which constitute part 
of the community estate are deemed to meet the required conditions to 
the extent of one-half of each loan and issue of bonds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (ii) Partnerships. Bonds held at the time of the decedent's death by 
a partnership in which he had an interest will be deemed to have met the 
above conditions to the extent of his fractional share of the bonds so 
held proportionate to his interest in the assets of the partnership.
    (iii) Trusts. Bonds held in trust at the time of the decedent's 
death will be deemed to have met the above conditions in an amount not 
to exceed the amount of the Federal estate tax:
    (A) If the trust actually terminated in favor of the decedent's 
estate, or
    (B) If the trustee is required to pay the decedent's Federal estate 
tax under the terms of the trust instrument or otherwise, or
    (C) To the extent the debts of the decedent's estate, including 
costs of administration, State inheritance and Federal estate taxes, 
exceed the assets of his estate without regard to the trust estate.
    (c) Transactions after owner's death. No transactions involving 
changes of ownership may be conducted after an owner's death without 
affecting the eligibility of the bonds for redemption at par for 
application of the proceeds to payment of the Federal estate tax. 
Transactions involving no changes of ownership which may be conducted 
without affecting eligibility are:
    (1) Exchange of bonds for those of lower denominations where the 
bonds exceed the amount of the tax and are not in the lowest authorized 
denominations,
    (2) Exchange of registered bonds for coupon bonds,
    (3) Exchange of coupon bonds for bonds registered in the names of 
the representatives of the estate,
    (4) Transfer of bonds from the owner or his nominee to the names of 
the representatives of the owner's estate, and
    (5) Purchases by or for the account of any owner prior to his death, 
held in book-entry form, and thereafter converted to definitive bonds.

However, any such transactions must be explained on Form PD 1782 or in a 
supplemental statement.



                           Subpart E--Interest



Sec. 306.35  Computation of interest.

    The interest on Treasury securities accrues and is payable on a 
semiannual basis unless otherwise provided in the circular offering them 
for sale or exchange. If the period of accrual is an exact 6 months, the 
interest accrual is an exact one-half year's interest without regard to 
the number of days in the period. If the period of accrual is less than 
an exact 6 months, the accrued interest is computed by determining the 
daily rate of accrual on the basis of the exact number of days in the 
full interest period and multiplying the daily rate by the exact number 
of days in the fractional period for which interest has actually 
accrued. A full interest period does not include the day as of which 
securities were issued or the day on which the last preceding interest 
became due, but does include the day on which the next succeeding 
interest payment is due. A fractional part of an interest period does 
not include the day as of which the securities were issued or the day on 
which the last preceding interest payment became due, but does include 
the day as of which the transaction terminating the accrual of interest 
is effected. The 29th of February in a leap year is included whenever it 
falls within either a full

[[Page 129]]

interest period or a fractional part thereof.7
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    7 The appendix to this subpart contains a complete explanation 
of the method of computing interest on a semiannual basis on Treasury 
bonds, notes, and certificates of indebtedness, and an outline of the 
method of computing the discount rates on Treasury bills. Also included 
are tables of computation of interest on semiannual and annual basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sec. 306.36  Termination of interest.

    Securities will cease to bear interest on the date of their maturity 
unless they have been called for redemption before maturity in 
accordance with their terms, or are presented and surrendered for 
redemption-exchange or exchange pursuant to an advance refunding or 
prerefunding offer, in which case they will cease to bear interest on 
the date of call, or the exchange date, as the case may be.



Sec. 306.37  Interest on registered securities.

    (a) Method of payment. The interest on registered securities is 
payable by checks drawn on the United States Treasury to the order of 
the registered owners, except as otherwise provided herein. Interest 
checks are prepared by the Department in advance of the interest payment 
data and are ordinarily mailed in time to reach the addresses on that 
date. Interest on a registered security which has not matured or been 
called and which is presented for any transaction during the period the 
books for that loan are closed will be paid by check drawn to the order 
of the registered owner of record. Upon receipt of notice of the death 
or incompetency of an individual named as registered owner, a change in 
the name or in the status of a partnership, corporation, or 
unincorporated association, the removal, resignation, succession, or 
death of a fiduciary or trustee, delivery of interest checks will be 
withheld pending receipt and approval of evidence showing who is 
entitled to receive the interest checks. If the inscriptions on 
securities do not clearly identify the owners, delivery of interest 
checks will be withheld pending reissue of the securities in the correct 
registration. The final installment of interest, unless otherwise 
provided in the offering circular or notice of call, will be paid by 
check drawn to the order of the registered owner of record and mailed in 
advance of the interest payment date in time to reach the addressee on 
or about that date. Interest on securities presented for prerefunding or 
advance refunding will be adjusted as provided in the prerefunding or 
advance refunding offer.
    (b) Change of address. To assure timely delivery of interest checks, 
owners should promptly notify the Bureau of any change of address. (Form 
PD 345 may be used.) The notification must be signed by the registered 
owner or a joint owner or an authorized representative, and should show 
the owner's taxpayer identifying number, the old and new addresses, the 
serial number and denomination of each security, the titles of the 
securities (for example: 4\1/4\ percent Treasury Bonds of 1987-92, dated 
August 15, 1962), and the registration of each security. Notifications 
by attorneys in fact, trustees, or by the legal representatives of the 
estates of deceased, incompetent, or minor owners should be supported by 
proof of their authority, unless, in the case of trustees or legal 
representatives, they are named in the registration.
    (c) Collection of interest checks--(1) General. Interest checks may 
be collected in accordance with the regulations governing the 
endorsement and payment of Government warrants and checks, which are 
contained in the current revision of Department Circular No. 21 (part 
240 of this chapter).
    (2) By voluntary guardians of incompetents. Interest checks drawn to 
the order of a person who has become incompetent and for whose estate no 
legal guardian or similar representative has been appointed should be 
returned to the Bureau with a full explanation of the circumstances. For 
collection of interest, the Department will recognize the relative 
responsible for the incompetent's care and support or some other person 
as voluntary guardian for the incompetent. (Application may be made on 
Form PD 1461.)
    (d) Nonreceipt, loss, theft, or destruction of interest checks. If 
an interest

[[Page 130]]

check is not received within a reasonable period after an interest 
payment date, the Bureau should be notified. Should a check be lost, 
stolen, or destroyed after receipt, the Bureau of Government Financial 
Operations, Washington, DC 20226, should be notified. Notification 
should include the name and address of the owner, his taxpayer 
identifying number, and the serial number, denomination, and title of 
the security upon which the interest was payable. If the check is 
subsequently received or recovered, the latter office should also be 
advised.



Sec. 306.38  Interest on bearer securities.

    Unless the offering circular and notice of call provide otherwise, 
interest on coupon securities is payable in regular course of business 
upon presentation and surrender of the interest coupons as they mature. 
Such coupons are payable at any Federal Reserve bank or branch, or the 
Bureau of the Public Debt.\8\ Interest on Treasury bills, and any other 
bearer securities which may be sold and issued on a discount basis and 
which are payable at par at maturity, is represented by the difference 
between the purchase price and the par value, and no coupons are 
attached.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Banking institutions will usually cash the coupons without 
charge as an accommodation to their customers.

 Indebtedness, and Computation of Discount on Treasury Bills--Interest 
                                 Tables

                 computation of interest on annual basis

      One Day's Interest is \1/365\ or \1/366\ of 1-Year's Interest

    Computation of interest on Treasury bonds, notes, and certificates 
of indebtedness will be made on an annual basis in all cases where 
interest is payable in one amount for the full term of the security, 
unless such term is an exact half-year (6 months), and it is provided 
that interest shall be computed on a semi-annual basis.
    If the term of the securities is exactly 1 year, the interest is 
computed for the full period at the specified rate regardless of the 
number of days in such period.
    If the term of the securities is less than 1 full year, the annual 
interest period for purposes of computation is considered to be the full 
year from but not including the date of issue to and including the 
anniversary of such date.
    If the term of the securities is more than 1 full year, computation 
is made on the basis of one full annual interest period, ending with the 
maturity date, and a fractional part of the preceding full annual 
interest period.
    The computation of interest for any fractional part of an annual 
interest period is made on the basis of 365 actual days in such period, 
or 366 days if February 29 falls within such annual period.

               computation of interest on semiannual basis

  One Day's Interest is \1/181\, \1/182\, \1/183\ or \1/184\ or \1/2\ 
                             Year's Interest

    Computation of interest on Treasury bonds, notes, and certificates 
of indebtedness will be made on a semiannual basis in all cases where 
interest is payable for one or more full half-year (6 months) periods, 
or for one or more full half-year periods and a fractional part of a 
half-year period. A semiannual interest period is an exact half-year or 
6 months, for computation purposes, and may comprise 181, 182, 183 or 
184 actual days.
    An exact half-year's interest at the specified rate is computed for 
each full period of exactly 6 months, irrespective of the actual number 
of days in the half-year.
    If the initial interest covers a fractional part of a half-year, 
computation is made on the basis of the actual number of days in the 
half-year (exactly 6 months) ending on the day such initial interest 
becomes due. If the initial interest covers a period in excess of 6 
months, computation is made on the basis of one full half-year, ending 
with the interest due date, and a fractional part of the preceding full 
half-year period.
    Interest for any fractional part of a full half-year period is 
computed on the basis of the exact number of days in the full period, 
including February 29 whenever it falls within such a period.
    The number of days in any half-year period is shown in the following 
table:

                         use of interest tables

    In the appended tables decimals are set forth for use in computing 
interest for fractional parts of interest periods. The decimals cover 
interest on $1,000 for 1 day in each possible semiannual (Table I), and 
annual (Table II) interest period, at all rates of interest, in steps of 
\1/8\ percent, from \1/8\ to 9 percent. The amount of interest accruing 
on any date (for a fractional part of an interest period) on $1,000 face 
amount of any issue of Treasury bonds, Treasury notes, or Treasury 
certificates of indebtedness may be ascertained in the following way:
    (1) The date of issue, the dates for the payment of interest, the 
basis (semiannual or annual) upon which interest is computed, and the 
rate of interest (percent per annum) may be determined from the text of 
the security, or from the official circular governing the issue.
    (2) Determine the interest period of which the fraction is a part, 
and calculate the number of days in the full period to determine the 
proper column to be used in selecting the decimal for 1 day's interest.
    (3) Calculate the actual number of days in the fractional period 
from but not including the date of issue or the day on which the last 
preceding interest payment was made, to and including the day on which 
the next succeeding interest payment is due or the day as of which the 
transaction which terminates the accrual of additional interest is 
effected.
    (4) Multiply the appropriate decimal (1 day's interest on $1,000) by 
the number of days in the fractional part of the interest period. The 
appropriate decimal will be found in the appended table for interest 
payable semiannually or annually, as the case may be, opposite the rate 
borne by the security, and in the column showing the full interest 
period of which the fractional period is a part. (For interest on any 
other amount, multiply the amount of interest on $1,000 by the other 
amount expressed as a decimal of $1,000.)

                                treasury

    The methods of computing discount rates on U.S. Treasury bills are 
given below:
    Computation will be made on an annual basis in all cases. The annual 
period for bank discount is a year of 360 days, and all computations of 
such discount will be made on that basis. The annual period for true 
discount is 1 full year from but not including the date of issue to and 
including the anniversary of such date. Computation of true discount for 
a fractional part of a year will be made on the basis of 365 days in the 
year, or 366 days if February 29 falls within the year.

                              bank discount

    The bank discount rate on a Treasury bill may be ascertained by: (1) 
Subtracting the sale price of the bill from its face value to obtain the 
amount of discount; (2) dividing the amount of discount by the number of 
days the bill is to run to obtain the amount of discount per day; (3) 
multiplying the amount of discount per day by 360 (the number of days in 
a commercial year of 12 months of 30 days each) to obtain the amount of 
discount per year; and (4) dividing the amount of discount per year by 
the face value of the bill to obtain the bank discount rate.

For example:

 
 
 
91-day bill:
  Principal amount--maturity value..........................     $100.00
  Price at issue--amount received...........................       99.50
                                                             -----------
    Amount of discount......................................         .50
$0.5091 x 360$100=.01978 or 1.978 percent
 

                              true discount

    The true discount rate on a Treasury bill of not more than one-half 
year in length may be ascertained by (1 and 2) obtaining the amount of 
discount per day by following the first two steps described under ``Bank 
Discount''; (3) multiplying the amount of discount per day by the actual 
number of days in the year from date of issue (365 ordinarily, but 366 
if February 29 falls within the year from date of issue) to obtain the 
amount of discount per year; and (4) dividing the amount of discount per 
year by the sale price of the bill to obtain the true discount rate.

For example:

 
 
 
91-day bill:
  Principal amount--maturity value..........................     $100.00
  Price at issue--amount received...........................       99.50
                                                             -----------
    Amount of discount......................................         .50
$0.5091 x 365$99.50=.02016 or 2.016 percent

        Subpart F--Assignments of Registered Securities--General



Sec. 306.40  Execution of assignments.

    The assignment of a registered security should be executed by the 
owner, or his or her authorized representative, in the presence of an 
individual authorized to certify assignments. All assignments must be 
made on the backs of the securities, unless otherwise authorized by the 
Bureau, a Federal Reserve Bank or branch. An assignment by mark (X) must 
be witnessed not only by a certifying individual, but also by at least 
one other person, who should add an endorsement substantially as 
follows: ``Witness to signature by mark,'' followed by the witness' 
signature and address.

specified transferee, to the Secretary of the Treasury for exchange for 
coupon securities, or to the Secretary of the Treasury for redemption or 
for exchange for other securities offered at maturity, upon call or 
pursuant to an advance refunding or prerefunding offer. Assignments to 
``The Secretary of the Treasury,'' ``The Secretary of the Treasury for 
transfer,'' or ``The Secretary of the Treasury for exchange'' will not 
be accepted unless supplemented by specific instructions by or in behalf 
of the owner.

    If an alteration or erasure has been made in an assignment, the 
assignor should appear before an authorized certifying officer and 
execute a new assignment to the same assignee. If the new assignment is 
to other than the assignee whose name has been altered or erased, a 
disclaimer from the first-named assignee should be obtained. Otherwise, 
an affidavit of explanation by the person responsible for the alteration 
or erasure should be submitted for consideration.



Sec. 306.43  Voidance of assignments.

    An assignment of a security to or for the account of another person, 
not completed by delivery, may be voided by a disclaimer of interest 
from that person. This disclaimer should be executed in the presence of 
an officer authorized to certify assignments of securities. Unless 
otherwise authorized by the Bureau or a Federal Reserve bank or branch, 
the disclaimer must be written, typed, or stamped on the back of the 
security in substantially the following form:

    The undersigned as assignee of this security hereby disclaims any 
interest herein.

                                                     (Signature)        

    I certify that the above-named person as described, whose identity 
is well known or proved to me, personally appeared before me the ------ 
day of ------------ (Month and year) at -------------------- (Place) and 
signed the above disclaimer of interest.
 (seal)_________________________________________________________________
(Signature and official designation of   certifying officer)


In the absence of a disclaimer, an affidavit or affidavits should be 
submitted for consideration explaining why a disclaimer cannot be 
obtained, reciting all other material facts and circumstances relating 
to the transaction, including whether or not the security was delivered 
to the person named as assignee and whether or not the affiants know of 
any basis for the assignee claiming any right, title, or interest in the 
security. After an assignment has been voided, in order to dispose of 
the security, an assignment by or on behalf of the owner will be 
required.



Sec. 306.44  Discrepancies in names.

    The Department will ordinarily require an explanation of 
discrepancies in the names which appear in inscriptions, assignments, 
supporting evidence or in the signatures to any assignments. (Form PD 
385 may be used for this purpose.) However, where the variations in the 
name of the registered owner, as inscribed on securities of the same or 
different issues, are such that both may properly represent the same 
person, for example, ``J. T. Smith'' and ``John T. Smith,'' no proof of 
identity will be required if the assignments are signed exactly as the 
securities are inscribed and are duly certified by the same certifying 
officer.



Sec. 306.45  Certifying individuals.

    (a) General. The following individuals may certify assignments of, 
or forms with respect to, securities:
    (1) Officers and employees of depository institutions, corporate 
central credit unions, and institutions that are members of Treasury-
recognized signature guarantee programs who have been authorized:
    (i) Generally to bind their respective institutions by their acts;
    (ii) Unqualifiedly to guarantee signatures to assignments of 
securities; or
    (iii) To certify assignments of securities.
    (2) Officers and authorized employees of Federal Reserve Banks and 
branches.
    (3) Officers of Federal Land Banks, Federal Intermediate Credit 
Banks and

[[Page 136]]

Banks for Cooperatives, and Federal Home Loan Banks.
    (4) Commissioned officers and warrant officers of the Armed Forces 
of the United States but only with respect to signatures executed by 
Armed Forces personnel, civilian field employees, and members of their 
families.
    (5) U.S. Attorneys, Collectors of Customs, and Regional 
Commissioners, District Directors, and Service Center Directors, 
Internal Revenue Service.
    (6) Judges and Clerks of U.S. Courts.
    (7) Such other persons as the Commissioner of the Public Debt or his 
designee may authorize.
    (b) Foreign countries. The following individuals are authorized to 
certify assignments of, or forms with respect to, securities executed in 
a foreign country:
    (1) United States diplomatic or consular officials.
    (2) Managers and officers of foreign branches of depository 
institutions and institutions that are members of Treasury-recognized 
signature guarantee programs.
    (3) Notaries public and other officers authorized to administer 
oaths, provided their official position and authority are certified by a 
United States diplomatic or consular official under seal of the office.
    (c) Duties and liabilities of certifying individuals--(1) General. 
Except as specified in paragraph (c)(2) of this section, a certifying 
individual shall require that the security or related form be signed in 
the certifying individual's presence after he or she has established the 
identity of the person seeking the certification. An employee who is not 
an officer should insert the words ``Authorized signature'' in the space 
provided for the title. A certifying individual and the organization for 
which he or she is acting are jointly and severally liable for any loss 
the United States may incur as a result of the individual's negligence 
in making the certification.
    (2) Signature guaranteed. The assignment or related form need not be 
executed in the presence of a certifying individual if he or she 
unqualifiedly guarantees the signature, in which case the certifying 
individual shall, after the signature, add the following endorsement: 
``Signature guaranteed, First National Bank of Smithville, Smithville, 
NH, by A.B. Doe, President'', and add the date. In guaranteeing a 
signature, the certifying individual and the organization for which he 
or she is acting warrant to the Department that the signature is genuine 
and that the signer had the legal capacity to execute the assignment or 
related form.
    (3) Absence of signature guaranteed by depository institution. A 
security or related form need not be actually signed by the owner in any 
case where a certifying individual associated with a depository 
institution has placed an endorsement on the security or the form 
reading substantially as follows: ``Absence of signature by owner and 
validity of transaction guaranteed, Second State Bank of Jonesville, 
Jonesville, NC, by B.R. Butler, Vice President''. The endorsement should 
be dated, and the seal of the institution should be added. This form of 
endorsement is an unconditional guarantee to the Department that the 
institution is acting for the owner under proper authorization.
    (d) Evidence of certifying individual's authority. The authority of 
a certifying individual to act is evidenced by affixing to the 
certification the following:
    (1) Officers and employees of depository institutions. The 
institution's seal or signature guarantee stamp; if the institution is 
an authorized paying agent for U.S. Savings Bonds, a legible imprint of 
the paying agent's stamp; or, if the institution is a member of the 
Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), a legible imprint 
of the STAMP signature guarantee stamp.
    (2) Officers and authorized employees of institutions that are 
members of Treasury-recognized signature guarantee programs. A legible 
imprint of the program's signature guarantee stamp, e.g., the STAMP, 
SEMP, or MSP stamp for members of the Securities Transfer Agents 
Medallion Program, the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program, or the New 
York Stock Exchange Incorporated Medallion Signature Program, 
respectively.

[[Page 137]]

    (3) Officers and authorized employees of Federal Reserve Banks. 
Whatever is prescribed in procedures established by the Department.
    (4) Officers and employees of corporate central credit unions and 
other entities listed in paragraph (a)(3) of this section. The entity's 
seal.
    (5) Notaries public, diplomatic or consular officials. The official 
seal or stamp of the office. If the certifying individual has no seal or 
stamp, then the official's position must be certified by some other 
authorized individual, under seal or stamp, or otherwise proved to the 
satisfaction of the Department.
    (6) Commissioned or warrant officers of the United States Armed 
Forces. A statement which sets out the officer's rank and the fact that 
the person executing the assignment or form is one whose signature the 
officer is authorized to certify under the regulations in this part.
    (7) A judge or clerk of the court. The seal of the court.
    (8) Any other certifying individual. The official seal or stamp of 
the office. If the certifying individual has no seal or stamp, then the 
certifying individual's position and signature must be certified by some 
other authorized individual under official seal or stamp, or otherwise 
proved to the satisfaction of the Department.
    (e) Interested persons not to act as certifying individual. Neither 
the transferor, the transferee, nor any person having an interest in a 
security involved in the transaction may act as a certifying individual. 
However, an authorized officer or employee of a depository institution 
or of an institution that is a member of a Treasury-recognized signature 
guarantee program may act as a certifying individual on a security or 
related form for transfer of a security to the institution, or any 
security or related form executed by another individual on behalf of the 
institution.
[59 FR 59037, Nov. 15, 1994]



          Subpart G--Assignments by or in Behalf of Individuals



Sec. 306.55  Signatures, minor errors and change of name.

    The owner's signature to an assignment should be in the form in 
which the security is inscribed or assigned, unless such inscription or 
assignment is incorrect or the name has since been changed. In case of a 
change of name, the signature to the assignment should show both names 
and the manner in which the change was made, for example, ``John Young, 
changed by order of court from Hans Jung.'' Evidence of the change will 
be required. However, no evidence is required to support an assignment 
if the change resulted from marriage and the signature, which must be 
duly certified by an authorized officer, is written to show that fact, 
for example, ``Mrs. Mary J. Brown, changed by marriage from Miss Mary 
Jones.''



Sec. 306.56  Assignment of securities registered in the names of or assigned to two or more persons.

    (a) Transfer or exchange. Securities registered in the names of or 
assigned to two or more persons may be transferred or exchanged for 
coupon bonds during the lives of all the joint owners only upon 
assignments by all or on their behalf by authorized representatives. 
Upon proof of the death of one, the Department will accept an assignment 
by or in behalf of the survivor or survivors, unless the form of 
registration or assignment includes words which precludes the right of 
survivorship.9 In the latter case, in addition to assignment 
by or in behalf of the survivor or survivors, an assignment in behalf of 
the decedent's estate will be required.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    9 See Sec. 306.11(a) (2) for forms of registration 
expressing or precluding survivorship.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) Advance refunding or prerefunding offers. No assignments are 
required for exchange of securities registered in the names of or 
assigned to two or more persons if the securities to be received in the 
exchange are to be registered in

[[Page 138]]

the same names and form. If bearer securities or securities in a 
different form are to be issued, all persons named must assign, except 
that in case of death paragraph (a) of this section shall apply.
    (c) Redemption or redemption-exchange--(1) Alternative registration 
or assignment. Securities registered in the names of or assigned to two 
or more persons in the alternative, for example, ``John B. Smith or Mrs. 
Mary J. Smith'' or ``John B. Smith or Mrs. Mary J. Smith or the 
survivor,'' may be assigned by one of them at maturity or upon call, for 
redemption or redemption-exchange, for his own account or otherwise, 
whether or not the other joint owner or owners are deceased.
    (2) Joint registration or assignment. Securities registered in the 
names of or assigned to two or more persons jointly, for example, ``John 
B. Smith and Mrs. Mary J. Smith,'' or ``John B. Smith and Mrs. Mary J. 
Smith as tenants in common,'' or ``John B. Smith and Mary J. Smith as 
partners in community,'' may be assigned by one of them during the lives 
of all only for redemption at maturity or upon call, and then only for 
redemption for the account of all. No assignments are required for 
redemption-exchange for securities to be registered in the same names 
and forms as appear in the registration or assignment of the securities 
surrendered. Upon proof of the death of a joint owner, the survivor or 
survivors may assign securities so registered or assigned for redemption 
or redemption-exchange for any account, except that, if words which 
preclude the right of survivorship 9 appear in the 
registration or assignment, assignment in behalf of the decedent's 
estate also will be required.



Sec. 306.57  Minors and incompetents.

    (a) Assignments by natural guardian of securities registered in name 
of minor. Securities registered in the name of a minor for whose estate 
no legal guardian or similar representative has qualified may be 
assigned by the natural guardian upon qualification. (Form PD 2481 may 
be used for this purpose.)
    (b) Assignments of securities registered in name of natural guardian 
of minor. Securities registered in the name of a natural guardian of a 
minor may be assigned by the natural guardian for any authorized 
transaction except one for the apparent benefit of the natural guardian. 
If the natural guardian in whose name the securities are registered is 
deceased or is no longer qualified to act as natural guardian, the 
securities may be assigned by the person then acting as natural 
guardian. The assignment by the new natural guardian should be supported 
by proof of the death or disqualification of the former natural guardian 
and by evidence of his own status as natural guardian. (Form PD 2481 may 
be used for this purpose.) No assignment by a natural guardian will be 
accepted after receipt of notice of the minor's attainment of majority, 
removal of his disability of minority, disqualification of the natural 
guardian to act as such, qualification of a legal guardian or similar 
representative, or the death of the minor.
    (c) Assignments by voluntary guardian of incompetents. Registered 
securities belonging to an incompetent for whose estate no legal 
guardian or similar representative is legally qualified may be assigned 
by the relative responsible for his care and support or some other 
person as voluntary guardian:
    (1) For redemption or exchange for bearer securities, if the 
proceeds of the securities are needed to pay expenses already incurred, 
or to be incurred during any 90-day period, for the care and support of 
the incompetent or his legal dependents.
    (2) For redemption-exchange, if the securities are matured or have 
been called, or pursuant to an advance refunding or prerefunding offer, 
for reinvestment in other securities to be registered in the form ``A, 
an incompetent (123-45-6789) under voluntary guardianship.''

An application on Form PD 1461 by the person seeking authority to act as 
voluntary guardian will be required.
    (d) Assignments by legal guardians of minors or incompetents. 
Securities registered in the name and title of the

[[Page 139]]

legal guardian or similar representative of the estate of a minor or 
incompetent may be assigned by the representative for any authorized 
transaction without proof of his qualification. Assignments by a 
representative of any other securities belonging to a minor or 
incompetent must be supported by properly certified evidence of 
qualification. The evidence must be dated not more than 1 year before 
the date of the assignments and must contain a statement showing the 
appointment is in full force unless (1) it shows the appointment was 
made not more than 1 year before the date of the assignment, or (2) the 
representative or a corepresentative is a corporation. An assignment by 
the representative will not be accepted after receipt of notice of 
termination of the guardianship, except for transfer to the former ward.



Sec. 306.58  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart, so far as applicable, govern 
transactions in Treasury Bonds, Investment Series B- 1975-80.



     Subpart H--Assignments in Behalf of Estates of Deceased Owners



Sec. 306.65  Special provisions applicable to small amounts of securities, interest checks or redemption checks.

    Entitlement to, or the authority to dispose of, a small amount of 
securities and checks issued in payment thereof or in payment of 
interest thereon, belonging to the estate of a decedent, may be 
established through the use of certain short forms, according to the 
aggregate amount of securities and checks involved (excluding checks 
representing interest on the securities), as indicated by the following 
table:

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amount      Circumstances             Form           To be executed by--
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$100..  No administration...  PD2216..............  Person who paid
                                                     burial expenses.
500...  Estate being          PD2488..............  Executor or
         administered.                               administrator.

                                                     administrator,
                                                     attorneys or other
                                                     qualified person.
------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sec. 306.66  Estates--administration.

    (a) Temporary or special administrators. Temporary or special 
administrators may assign securities for any authorized transaction 
within the scope of their authority. The assignments must be supported 
by:
    (1) Temporary administrators. A certificate, under court seal, 
showing the appointment in full force within thirty days preceding the 
date of receipt of the securities.
    (2) Special administrators. A certificate, under court seal, showing 
the appointment in full force within 6 months preceding the date of 
receipt of the securities.

Authority for assignments for transactions not within the scope of 
appointment must be established by a duly certified copy of a special 
order of court.
    (b) In course of administration. A security belonging to the estate 
of a decedent which is being administered by a duly qualified executor 
or general administrator will be accepted for any authorized transaction 
upon assignment by such representative. (See Sec. 306.77.) Unless the 
security is registered in the name of and shows the capacity of the 
representative, the assignment must be supported by a certificate or a 
copy of the letters of appointment, certified under court seal. The 
certificate or certification, if required, must be dated not more than 6 
months before the date of the assignment and must contain a statement 
that the appointment is in full force, unless:
    (1) It shows the appointment was made not more than 1 year before 
the date of the assignment, or
    (2) The representative or a corepresentative is a corporation, or
    (3) Redemption is being made for application of the proceeds in 
payment of Federal estate taxes as provided by Sec. 306.28.
    (c) After settlement through court proceedings. Securities belonging 
to the estate of a decedent which has been settled in court will be 
accepted for any authorized transaction upon assignments by the person 
or persons entitled, as determined by the court. The assignments should 
be supported by a copy, certified under court seal, of the

[[Page 140]]

decree of distribution, the representative's final account as approved 
by the court, or other pertinent court records.



Sec. 306.67  Estates not administered.

    (a) Special provisions under State laws. If, under State law, a 
person has been recognized or appointed to receive or distribute the 
assets of a decedent's estate without regular administration, his 
assignment of securities belonging to the estate will be accepted 
provided he submits appropriate evidence of his authority.
    (b) Agreement of persons entitled. When it appears that no legal 
representative of a decedent's estate has been or is to be appointed, 
securities belonging to the estate may be duly disposed of pursuant to 
an agreement and assignment by all persons entitled to share in the 
decedent's personal estate. (Form PD 1646 may be used.) However, all 
debts of the decedent and his estate must be paid or provided for and 
the interests of any minors or incompetents must be protected.



Sec. 306.68  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart, so far as applicable, govern 
transactions in Treasury Bonds, Investment Series B- 1975-80.



     Subpart I--Assignments by or in Behalf of Trustees and Similar 
                               Fiduciaries



Sec. 306.75  Individual fiduciaries.

    (a) General. Securities registered in, or assigned to, the names and 
titles of individual fiduciaries will be accepted for any authorized 
transaction upon assignment by the designated fiduciaries without proof 
of their qualification. If the fiduciaries in whose names the securities 
are registered, or to whom they have been assigned, have been succeeded 
by other fiduciaries, evidence of successorship must be furnished. If 
the appointment of a successor is not required under the terms of the 
trust instrument or otherwise and is not contemplated, assignments by 
the surviving or remaining fiduciary or fiduciaries must be supported by 
appropriate proof. This requires:
    (1) Proof of the death, resignation, removal or disqualification of 
the former fiduciary and
    (2) Evidence that the surviving or remaining fiduciary or 
fiduciaries are fully qualified to administer the fiduciary estate, 
which may be in the form of a certificate by them showing the 
appointment of a successor has not been applied for, is not contemplated 
and is not necessary under the terms of the trust instrument or 
otherwise.

Assignments of securities registered in the titles, without the names of 
the fiduciaries, for example, ``Trustees of the George E. White Memorial 
Scholarship Fund under deed of trust dated 11/10/40, executed by John W. 
White,'' must be supported by proof that the assignors are the qualified 
and acting trustees of the designated trust estate, unless they are 
empowered to act as a unit in which case the provisions of Sec. 306.76 
shall apply. (Form PD 2446 may be used to furnish proof of incumbency of 
fiduciaries.) Assignments by fiduciaries of securities not registered or 
assigned in such manner as to show that they belong to the estate for 
which the assignors are acting must also be supported by evidence that 
the estate is entitled to the securities.
    (b) Life tenants. Upon termination of a life estate by reason of the 
death of the life tenant in whose name a security is registered, or to 
whom it has been assigned, the security will be accepted for any 
authorized transaction upon assignment by the remainderman, supported by 
evidence of entitlement.



Sec. 306.76  Fiduciaries acting as a unit.

    Securities registered in the name of or assigned to a board, 
committee or other body authorized to act as a unit for any public or 
private trust estate may be assigned for any authorized transaction by 
anyone authorized to act in behalf of such body. Except as otherwise 
provided in this section, the assignments must be supported by a copy of 
a resolution adopted by the body, properly certified under its seal, or, 
if none, sworn to by a member of the body having access to its records. 
(Form PD 2495 may be used.) If the person assigning is designated in the 
resolution by title only, his incumbency must be duly certified by 
another

[[Page 141]]

member of the body. (Form PD 2446 may be used.) If the fiduciaries of 
any trust estate are empowered to act as a unit, although not designated 
as a board, committee or other body, securities registered in their 
names or assigned to them as such, or in their titles without their 
names, may be assigned by anyone authorized by the group to act in its 
behalf. Such assignments may be supported by a sworn copy of a 
resolution adopted by the group in accordance with the terms of the 
trust instrument, and proof of their authority to act as a unit may be 
required. As an alternative, assignments by all the fiduciaries, 
supported by proof of their incumbency, if not named on the securities, 
will be accepted.
[38 FR 7078, Mar. 15, 1973; 38 FR 10004, Apr. 23, 1973]



Sec. 306.77  Corepresentatives and fiduciaries.

    If there are two or more executors, administrators, guardians or 
similar representatives, or trustees of an estate, all must unite in the 
assignment of any securities belonging to the estate. However, when a 
statute, a decree of court, or the instrument under which the 
representatives or fiduciaries are acting provides otherwise, 
assignments in accordance with their authority will be accepted. If the 
securities have matured or been called and are submitted for redemption 
for the account of all, or for redemption-exchange or pursuant to an 
advance refunding or prerefunding offer, and the securities offered in 
exchange are to be registered in the names of all, no assignment is 
required.



Sec. 306.78  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart, so far as applicable, govern 
assignments of Treasury Bonds, Investment Series B- 1975-80.



   Subpart J--Assignments in Behalf of Private or Public Organizations



Sec. 306.85  Private corporations and unincorporated associations (including nominees).

    Securities registered in the name of, or assigned to, an 
unincorporated association, or a private corporation in its own right or 
in a representative or fiduciary capacity, or as nominee, may be 
assigned in its behalf for any authorized transaction by any duly 
authorized officer or officers. Evidence, in the form of a resolution of 
the governing body, authorizing the assigning officer to assign, or to 
sell, or to otherwise dispose of the securities will ordinarily be 
required. Resolutions may relate to any or all registered securities 
owned by the organization or held by it in a representative or fiduciary 
capacity. (Form PD 1010, or any substantially similar form, may be used 
when the authority relates to specific securities; Form PD 1011, or any 
substantially similar form, may be used for securities generally.) If 
the officer derives his authority from a charter, constitution or 
bylaws, a copy, or a pertinent extract therefrom, properly certified, 
will be required in lieu of a resolution. If the resolution or other 
supporting document shows the title of an authorized officer, without 
his name, it must be supplemented by a certificate of incumbency. (Form 
PD 1014 may be used.)



Sec. 306.86  Change of name and succession of private organizations.

    If a private corporation or unincorporated association changes its 
name or is lawfully succeeded by another corporation or unincorporated 
association, its securities may be assigned in behalf of the 
organization in its new name or that of its successor by an authorized 
officer in accordance with Sec. 306.85. The assignment must be supported 
by evidence of the change of name or successorship.



Sec. 306.87  Partnerships (including nominee partnerships).

    An assignment of a security registered in the name of or assigned to 
a partnership must be executed by a general partner. Upon dissolution of 
a partnership, assignment by all living partners and by the persons 
entitled to assign in behalf of any deceased partner's estate will be 
required unless the laws of the jurisdiction authorize a general partner 
to bind the partnership by any act appropriate for winding up 
partnership affairs. In those cases

[[Page 142]]

where assignments by or in behalf of all partners are required this fact 
must be shown in the assignment; otherwise, an affidavit by a former 
general partner must be furnished identifying all the persons who had 
been partners immediately prior to dissolution. Upon voluntary 
dissolution, for any jurisdiction where a general partner may not act in 
winding up partnership affairs, an assignment by a liquidating partner, 
as such, must be supported by a duly executed agreement among the 
partners appointing the liquidating partner.



Sec. 306.88  Political entities and public corporations.

    Securities registered in the name of, or assigned to, a State, 
county, city, town, village, school district or other political entity, 
public body or corporation, may be assigned by a duly authorized 
officer, supported by evidence of his authority.



Sec. 306.89  Public officers.

    Securities registered in the name of, or assigned to, a public 
officer designated by title may be assigned by such officer, supported 
by evidence of incumbency. Assignments for the officer's own apparent 
individual benefit will not be recognized.



Sec. 306.90  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart apply to Treasury Bonds, Investment 
Series B-1975-80.



                      Subpart K--Attorneys in Fact



Sec. 306.95  Attorneys in fact.

    (a) General. Assignments by an attorney in fact will be recognized 
if supported by an adequate power of attorney. Every power must be 
executed in the presence of an authorized certifying officer under the 
conditions set out in Sec. 306.45 for certification of assignments. 
Powers need not be submitted to support redemption-exchanges or 
exchanges pursuant to advance refunding or prefunding offers where the 
securities to be issued are to be registered in the same names and forms 
as appear in the inscriptions or assignments of the securities 
surrendered. In all other cases, the original power, or a photocopy 
showing the grantor's autograph signature, properly certified, must be 
submitted, together with the security assigned on the owner's behalf by 
the attorney in fact. An assignment by a substitute attorney in fact 
must be supported by an authorizing power of attorney and power of 
substitution. An assignment by an attorney in fact or a substitute 
attorney in fact for the apparent benefit of either will not be accepted 
unless expressly authorized. (Form PD 1001 or 1003, as appropriate, may 
be used to appoint an attorney in fact. An attorney in fact may use Form 
PD 1006 or 1008 to appoint a substitute. However, any form sufficient in 
substance may be used.) If there are two or more joint attorneys in fact 
or substitutes, all must unite in an assignment, unless the power 
authorizes less than all to act. A power of attorney or of substitution 
not coupled with an interest will be recognized until the Bureau 
receives proof of revocation or proof of the grantor's death or 
incompetency.
    (b) For legal representatives and fiduciaries. Assignments by an 
attorney in fact or substitute attorney in fact for a legal 
representative or fiduciary, in addition to the power of attorney and of 
substitution, must be supported by evidence, if any, as required by 
Secs. 306.57(d), 306.66(b), 306.75, and 306.76. Powers must specifically 
designate the securities to be assigned.
    (c) For corporations or unincorporated associations. Assignments by 
an attorney in fact or a substitute attorney in fact in behalf of a 
corporation or unincorporated association, in addition to the power of 
attorney and power of substitution, must be supported by one of the 
following documents certified under seal of the organization, or, if it 
has no seal, sworn to by an officer who has access to the records:
    (1) A copy of the resolution of the governing body authorizing an 
officer to appoint an attorney in fact, with power of substitution, if 
pertinent, to assign, or to sell, or to otherwise dispose of, the 
securities, or
    (2) A copy of the charter, constitution, or bylaws, or a pertinent 
extract therefrom, showing the authority of an officer to appoint an 
attorney in fact, or

[[Page 143]]

    (3) A copy of the resolution of the governing body directly 
appointing an attorney in fact.

If the resolution or other supporting document shows only the title of 
the authorized officer, without his name, a certificate of incumbency 
must also be furnished. (Form PD 1014 may be used.) The power may not be 
broader than the resolution or other authority.
    (d) For public corporations. A general power of attorney in behalf 
of a public corporation will be recognized only if it is authorized by 
statute.



Sec. 306.96  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart shall apply to nontransferable 
securities, subject only to the limitations imposed by the terms of the 
particular issues.



            Subpart L--Transfer Through Judicial Proceedings



Sec. 306.100  Transferable securities.

    The Department will recognize valid judicial proceedings affecting 
the ownership of or interest in transferable securities, upon 
presentation of the securities together with evidence of the 
proceedings. In the case of securities registered in the names of two or 
more persons, the extent of their respective interests in the securities 
must be determined by the court in proceedings to which they are parties 
or must otherwise be validly established.10
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    10 Title in a finder claiming ownership of a registered 
security will not be recognized. A finder claiming ownership of a bearer 
security or a registered security assigned in blank or so assigned as to 
become in effect payable to bearer must perfect his title in accordance 
with the provisions of State law. If there are no such provisions, the 
Department will not recognize his title to the security.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sec. 306.101  Evidence required.

    Copies of a final judgment, decree, or order of court and of any 
necessary supplementary proceedings must be submitted. Assignments by a 
trustee in bankruptcy or a receiver of an insolvent's estate must be 
supported by evidence of his qualification. Assignments by a receiver in 
equity or a similar court officer must be supported by a copy of an 
order authorizing him to assign, or to sell, or to otherwise dispose of, 
the securities. Where the documents are dated more than 6 months prior 
to presentation of the securities, there must also be submitted a 
certificate dated within 6 months of presentation of the securities, 
showing the judgment, decree, or order, or evidence of qualification, is 
in full force. Any such evidence must be certified under court seal.



Sec. 306.102  Nontransferable securities.

    The provisions of this subpart shall apply to Treasury Bonds, 
Investment Series B-1975-80, except that prior to maturity any reference 
to assignments shall be deemed to refer to assignments of the bonds for 
exchange for the current series of 1\1/2\ percent 5-year EA or EO 
Treasury notes.



           Subpart M--Requests for Suspension of Transactions



Sec. 306.105  Requests for suspension of transactions in registered securities.

    (a) Timely notice. If prior to the time a registered security 
bearing an apparently valid assignment has been functioned, a claim is 
received from the owner or his authorized representative showing that:
    (1) The security was lost, stolen, or destroyed and that it was 
unassigned, or not so assigned as to have become in effect payable to 
bearer, or
    (2) The assignment was affected by fraud, the transaction for which 
the security was received will be suspended.

The interested parties will be given a reasonable period of time in 
which to effect settlement of their interests by agreement, or to 
institute judicial proceedings.
    (b) Late notice. If, after a registered security has been 
transferred, exchanged, or redeemed in reliance on an apparently valid 
assignment, an owner notifies the Bureau that the assignment was 
affected by fraud or that the security had been lost or stolen, the 
Department will undertake only to furnish available information.
    (c) Forged assignments. A claim that an assignment of a registered 
security is a forgery will be investigated. If it is

[[Page 144]]

established that the assignment was in fact forged and that the owner 
did not authorize or ratify it, or receive any benefit therefrom, the 
Department will recognize his ownership and grant appropriate relief.



Sec. 306.106  Requests for suspension of transactions in bearer securities.

    (a) Securities not overdue. Neither the Department nor any of its 
agents will accept notice of any claim or of pending judicial 
proceedings by any person for the purpose of suspending transactions in 
bearer securities, or registered securities so assigned as to become in 
effect payable to bearer which are not overdue as defined in 
Sec. 306.25.11 However, if the securities are received and 
retired, the department will undertake to notify persons who appear to 
be entitled to any available information concerning the source from 
which the securities were received.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    11 It has been the longstanding policy of the Department 
to assume no responsibility for the protection of bearer securities not 
in the possession of persons claiming rights therein and to give no 
effect to any notice of such claims. This policy was formalized on April 
27, 1867, when the Secretary of the Treasury issued the following 
statement:
    ``In consequence of the increasing trouble, wholly without practical 
benefit, arising from notices which are constantly received at the 
Department respecting the loss of coupon bonds, which are payable to 
bearer, and of Treasury notes issued and remaining in blank at the time 
of loss, it becomes necessary to give this public notice, that the 
Government cannot protect and will not undertake to protect the owners 
of such bonds and notes against the consequences of their own fault or 
misfortune.''
    ``Hereafter all bonds, notes, and coupons, payable to bearer, and 
Treasury notes issued and remaining in blank, will be paid to the party 
presenting them in pursuance of the regulations of the Department, in 
the course of regular business; and no attention will be paid to caveats 
which may be filed for the purpose of preventing such payment.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) Overdue securities. Reports that bearer securities, or 
registered securities so assigned as to become in effect payable to 
bearer, were lost, stolen, or possibly destroyed after they became 
overdue as defined in Sec. 306.25 will be accepted by the Bureau for the 
purpose of suspending redemption of the securities if the claimant 
establishes his interest. If the securities are presented, their 
redemption will be suspended and the presenter and the claimant will 
each be given an opportunity to establish ownership.



     Subpart N--Relief for Loss, Theft, Destruction, Mutilation, or 
                        Defacement of Securities



Sec. 306.110  Statutory authority and requirements.

    Relief is authorized, under certain conditions, for the loss, theft, 
destruction, mutilation or defacement of U.S. securities, whether 
before, at, or after maturity. A bond of indemnity, in such form and 
with such surety, sureties or security as may be required to protect the 
interests of the United States, is required as a condition of relief on 
account of any bearer security or any registered security assigned in 
blank or so assigned as to become in effect payable to bearer, and is 
ordinarily required in the case of unassigned registered securities.



Sec. 306.111  Procedure for applying for relief.

    Prompt report of the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation or 
defacement of a security should be made to the Bureau. The report should 
include:
    (a) The name and present address of the owner and his address at the 
time the security was issued, and, if the report is made by some other 
person, the capacity in which he represents the owner.
    (b) The identity of the security by title of loan, issue date, 
interest rate, serial number and denomination, and in the case of a 
registered security, the exact form of inscription and a full 
description of any assignment, endorsement or other writing.
    (c) A full statement of the circumstances.

All available portions of a mutilated, defaced or partially destroyed 
security must also be submitted.



Sec. 306.112  Type of relief granted.

    (a) Prior to call or maturity. After a claim on account of the loss, 
theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement of a security which has 
not matured or

[[Page 145]]

been called has been satisfactorily established and the conditions for 
granting relief have been met, a security of like description will be 
issued to replace the original security.
    (b) At or after call or maturity. Payment will be made on account of 
the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement of a called or 
matured security after the claim has been satisfactorily established and 
the conditions for granting relief have been met.
    (c) Interest coupons. Where relief has been authorized on account of 
a destroyed, mutilated or defaced coupon security which has not matured 
or been called, the replacement security will have attached all 
unmatured interest coupons if it is established to the satisfaction of 
the Secretary of the Treasury that the coupons were attached to the 
original security at the time of its destruction, mutilation or 
defacement. In every other case only those unmatured interest coupons 
for which the Department has received payment will be attached. The 
price of the coupons will be their value as determined by the Department 
at the time relief is authorized using interest rate factors based on 
then current market yields on Treasury securities of comparable 
maturities.



Sec. 306.113  Cases not requiring bonds of indemnity.

    A bond of indemnity will not be required as a condition of relief 
for the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement of 
registered securities in any of the following classes of cases unless 
the Secretary of the Treasury deems it essential in the public interest:
    (a) If the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement, as 
the case may be, occurred while the security was in the custody or 
control of the United States, or a duly authorized agent thereof (not 
including the Postal Service when acting solely in its capacity as 
public carrier of the mails), or while in the course of shipment 
effected under regulations issued pursuant to the Government Losses in 
Shipment Act (parts 260, 261, and 262 of this chapter).
    (b) If substantially the entire security is presented and 
surrendered and the Security of the Treasury is satisfied as to the 
identity of the security and that any missing portions are not 
sufficient to form the basis of a valid claim against the United States.
    (c) If the security is one which by the provisions of law or by the 
terms of its issue is nontransferable or is transferable only by 
operation of law.
    (d) If the owner or holder is the United States, a Federal Reserve 
bank, a Federal Government corporation, a State, the District of 
Columbia, a territory or possession of the United States, a municipal 
corporation, or, if applicable, a political subdivision of any of the 
foregoing, or a foreign government.

subject the United States to any substantial expense or liability.



Sec. 306.127  Preservation of existing rights.

existing rights which holders of securities heretofore issued may have 
acquired under the circulars offering such securities for sale or under 
the regulations in force at the time of acquisition.



Sec. 306.128  Supplements, amendments or revisions.

    The Secretary of the Treasury may at any time, or from time to time,

Sec. 309.1  Authority for issue and sale.

    The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized by the Second Liberty 
Bond Act, as amended, to issue Treasury bills of the United States on an 
interest-bearing basis, on a discount basis, or on a combination 
interest-bearing and discount basis, at such price or prices and with 
interest computed in such manner and payable at such time or times as he 
may prescribe; and to fix the form, terms, and conditions thereof, and 
to offer them for sale on a competitive or other basis, under such 
regulations and upon such terms and conditions as he may prescribe. 
Pursuant to said authorization, the Secretary of the Treasury may, from 
time to time, by public notice, offer Treasury bills for sale, and 
invite tenders therefor, through the Federal Reserve Banks and branches 
and through the Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Public Debt. 
The Treasury bills so offered, and the tenders made, will be subject to 
the terms and conditions and to the general rules and regulations herein 
set forth, except as they may be modified in the public notices issued 
by the Secretary of the Treasury in connection with particular 
offerings.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    1 Accordingly, these regulations do not constitute a specific 
offering of Treasury bills.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sec. 309.2  Description of Treasury bills (General).

    Treasury bills are bearer obligations of the United States promising 
to pay a specified amount on a specified date. They will be payable at 
maturity upon presentation to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, 
DC 20226, or to any Federal Reserve Bank or branch. Treasury bills are 
issued only by Federal Reserve Banks and branches and the Bureau of the 
Public Debt pursuant to tenders accepted by the Secretary of the 
Treasury, and shall not be valid unless the issue date and the maturity 
date are entered thereon. Treasury bills bearing the same issue date and 
the same maturity date shall constitute a series.



Sec. 309.3  Denominations and exchange.

    Treasury bills will be issued in denominations (maturity value) of 
$10,000, $15,000, $50,000, $100,000, $500,000, and $1,000,000. Exchanges 
from higher to lower and lower to higher denominations of the same 
series (bearing the same issue and maturity dates) will be permitted at 
Federal Reserve Banks and branches and at the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Washington, DC 20226. Insofar as applicable, the general regulations of 
the Treasury Department governing transactions in bonds and notes will 
govern transactions in Treasury bills.

[[Page 148]]



Sec. 309.4  Taxation.

    The income derived from Treasury bills, whether interest or gain 
from the sale or other disposition of the bills, shall not have any 
exemption, as such, and loss from the sale or other disposition of 
Treasury bills shall not have any special treatment, as such, under the 
Internal Revenue Code, or laws amendatory or supplementary thereto. The 
bills shall be subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise 
taxes, whether Federal or State, but shall be exempt from all taxation 
now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any 
State, or any of the possessions of the United States, or by any local 
taxing authority. For purposes of taxation the amount of discount at 
which Treasury bills are originally sold by the United States shall be 
considered to be interest.



Sec. 309.5  Acceptance of Treasury bills for various purposes.

    (a) Acceptable as security for public deposits. Treasury bills will 
be acceptable at maturity value to secure deposits of public monies.
    (b) Acceptable in payment of taxes. The Secretary of the Treasury, 
in his discretion, when inviting tenders for Treasury bills, may provide 
that Treasury bills of any series will be acceptable at maturity value, 
whether at or before maturity, under such rules and regulations as he 
shall prescribe or approve, in payment of income taxes payable under the 
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Treasury bills which by the 
terms of their issue are acceptable in payment of income taxes may be 
surrendered to any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, acting as fiscal 
agent of the United States, or to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Washington, DC 20226, 15 days or less before the date on which the taxes 
become due.
    (1) In the case of payments of corporation income taxes (including 
payments of estimates) for taxable years ending on or after December 31, 
1967, the bills shall be accompanied by a preinscribed Form 503, Federal 
Tax Deposit, Corporation Income Taxes, on which the face amount of the 
bills being surrendered should be entered in the space provided for the 
amount of the tax deposit. The office receiving the bills and Form 503 
will acknowledge receipt of the bills to the owner corporation and 
effect the tax deposit on the date on which the taxes become due. 
Accordingly, in these cases, it will no longer be necessary to submit 
receipts for Treasury bills to the Internal Revenue Service with the 
corporation's declaration or tax return.
    (2) In the case of payments of all other income taxes the office 
receiving the bills will issue receipts (in duplicate) to the owners. 
The original of the receipt shall be submitted, by the owner, in lieu of 
the bills, together with the tax return, to the District Director, 
Internal Revenue Service.
    (c) Discounting by Federal Reserve Bank of notes secured by Treasury 
bills. Notes securied by Treasury bills are eligible for discount or 
rediscount at Federal Reserve Banks as provided under the provisions of 
section 13 of the Federal Reserve Act, as are notes securied by bonds 
and notes of the United States.
    (d) Acceptable in connection with foreign obligations held by United 
States. Treasury bills will be acceptable at maturity, but not before, 
in payment of interest or of principal on account of obligations of 
foreign governments held by the United States.



Sec. 309.6  Public notice of offering.

    When Treasury bills are to be offered, tenders therefor will be 
invited through public notice given by the Secretary of the Treasury. 
Such public notices may be issued by the Secretary of the Treasury in 
the name of ``the Treasury Department'' with the same force and effect 
as if issued in the name of the Secretary of the Treasury. In such 
notice there will be set forth the amount of Treasury bills for which 
tenders are then invited, the date of issue, the date or dates when such 
bills will become due and payable, the date and closing hour for the 
receipt of tenders at the Federal Reserve Banks and branches and at the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, DC 20226, and the date on which 
payment for accepted tenders must be made or completed.

[[Page 149]]



Sec. 309.7  Tenders; submission through Federal Reserve Banks and branches and to the Bureau of the Public Debt.

    Tenders in response to any such public notice will be received at 
the Federal Reserve Banks, or Branches thereof and at the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Washington, DC 20226, and unless received before the time 
fixed for closing will be disregarded. Each tender must be for a minimum 
amount of $10,000. Tenders over $10,000 must be in multiples of $5,000 
(maturity value). In the case of competitive tenders the price or prices 
offered by the bidder for the amount or amounts (at maturity value) 
applied for must be stated, and must be expressed on the basis of 100, 
with not more than three decimals, e.g., 99.925. Fractions may not be 
used.



Sec. 309.8  Tenders; when cash deposit is required.

    Tenders should be submitted on the printed forms and forwarded in 
the special envelopes which will be supplied on application to any 
Federal Reserve Bank, or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Washington, DC 20226. If a special envelope is not available, the 
inscription ``Tender for Treasury Bills'' should be placed on the 
envelope used. The instructions set forth in the public notice 
announcing the offering should be observed with respect to the 
submission of tenders. Banking institutions generally may submit tenders 
for account of customers provided the names of the customers are set 
forth in such tenders. Others than banking institutions, will not be 
permitted to submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders from 
incorporated banks and trust companies, and from responsible and 
recognized dealers in investment securities will be received without 
deposit. Tenders from all others must be accompanied by a payment of 
such percent of the face amount of the Treasury bills applied for as the 
Secretary of the Treasury may from time to time prescribe: Provided, 
however, That such deposit will not be required if the tender is 
accompanied by an express guaranty of payment in full by an incorporated 
bank or trust company. Forfeiture of the prescribed payment may be 
declared by the Secretary of the Treasury, if payment is not completed, 
in the case of accepted tenders, on the prescribed date.



Sec. 309.9  Tenders; acceptance by the Secretary of the Treasury.

    At the time fixed for closing, as specified in the public notice, 
all tenders received by the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and by 
the Bureau of the Public Debt will be opened. The Secretary of the 
Treasury will determine the acceptable prices offered and will make 
public announcement thereof those submitting tenders will be advised of 
the acceptance or rejection thereof, and payment on accepted tenders 
must be made or completed on the date specified in the public notice.



Sec. 309.10  Tenders; reservation of right to reject.

    In considering the acceptance of tenders, the highest prices offered 
will be accepted in full down to the amount required, and if the same 
price appears in two or more tenders and it is necessary to accept only 
a part of the amount offered at such price, the amount accepted at such 
price will be prorated in accordance with the respective amounts applied 
for. However, the Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the right 
on any occasion to accept non-competitive tenders entered in accordance 
with specific offerings, to reject any or all tenders or parts of 
tenders, and to award less than the amount applied for; and any action 
he may take in any such respect or respects shall be final.



Sec. 309.11  Tenders; payment of accepted tenders.

    Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be 
made or completed at the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank or branch or 
at the Bureau of the Public Debt in cash or other immediately available 
funds on or before the date specified, except that the Secretary of the 
Treasury, in his discretion, when inviting tenders for Treasury bills, 
may provide:
    (a) That any qualified depositary may make such settlement by 
credit, on behalf of itself and its customers, up to any amount for 
which it shall be qualified in excess of existing deposits,

[[Page 150]]

when so notified by the Federal Reserve Bank of its District or
    (b) That such settlement may be made in maturing Treasury bills 
accepted in exchange.

Whenever the Secretary provides for settlement in maturing Treasury 
bills, cash adjustments will be made for differences between the par

A nonresident alien may be designated coowner or beneficiary or, on 
authorized reissue, owner, unless the nonresident alien is a resident of 
an area with respect to which the Department of the Treasury restricts 
or regulates the delivery of checks drawn against funds of the United 
States or its agencies or instrumentalities. See Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR part 211).

    (c) Minors. (1) Minors may purchase with their wages, earnings, or 
other funds belonging to them and under their control bonds registered 
in their names alone or with a coowner or beneficiary.
    (2) Bonds purchased by another person with funds belonging to a

registered, without a coowner or beneficiary, in the name of the minor 
or a natural guardian on behalf of a minor.

Sec. 315.7  Authorized forms of registration.

    (a) General. Subject to any limitations or restrictions contained in 
these regulations on the right of any person to be named as owner, 
coowner, or beneficiary, bonds should be registered as indicated below. 
A savings bond inscribed in a form not substantially in agreement with 
one of the forms authorized by this subpart is not considered validly 
issued.
    (b) Natural persons. A bond may be registered in the names of 
individuals in their own right, but only in one of the forms authorized 
by this paragraph.
    (1) Single ownership form. A bond may be registered in the name of 
one individual. Example:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789.


[[Page 156]]


    (2) Coownership form. A bond may be registered in the names of two 
individuals in the alternative as coowners. The form of registration ``A 
and B'' is not authorized. Examples:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 or Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321.
    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 or (Miss, Ms. or Mrs.) Ella S. Jones.
    Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321 or John A. Jones.

    (3) Beneficiary form. A bond may be registered in the name of one 
individual payable on death to another. ``Payable on death to'' may be 
abbreviated to ``P.O.D.'' Examples:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 payable on death to Mrs. Ella S. Jones.
    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 P.O.D. Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321.

    (c) Fiduciaries (including legal guardians and similar 
representatives, certain custodians, natural guardians, executors, 
administrators, and trustees)--(1) General. A bond may be registered in 
the name of any person or persons or any organization acting as 
fiduciary of a single fiduciary estate, but not where the fiduciary will 
hold the bond merely or principally as security for the performance of a 
duty, obligation, or service. Registration should conform to a form 
authorized by this paragraph. A coowner or beneficiary may be named only 
in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sec. 315.6(c) and (d). A 
common trust fund established and maintained by a financial institution 
authorized to act as a fiduciary will be considered a single fiduciary 
estate within the meaning of these regulations.
    (2) Legal guardians, conservators, similar representives, certain 
custodians. A bond may be registered in the name and title or capacity 
of the legally appointed or authorized representative of the estate of a 
minor, incompetent, aged or infirm person, absentee, et al., or in the 
name of that individual followed by an appropriate reference to the 
estate. Examples:

    Tenth National Bank, guardian (or conservator, trustee, etc.) of the 
estate of George N. Brown 123-45-6789, a minor (or an incompetent, aged 
person, infirm person, or absentee).

been designated trustee by the Department of the Army pursuant to 37 
U.S.C. 602.

payee for social security benefits (or black lung benefits, as the case 
may be). (If the beneficiary is a minor, the words ``a minor'' should 
appear immediately after the social security number.)
    Henry L. Green 123-45-6789 or George M. Brown, a minor under legal 
guardianship of the Tenth National Bank.
    Henry L. Green 123-45-6789 P.O.D. George M. Brown, a minor under 
legal guardianship of the Tenth National Bank.

    (3) Natural guardians. A bond may be registered in the name of 
either parent of a minor, as natural guardian. The registration of a 
bond in this form is considered as establishing a fiduciary 
relationship. A coowner or beneficiary may be named but only if the 
funds used to purchase the bond do not belong to the minor. Examples:

    John A. Jones, as natural guardian for Henry M. Jones 123-45-6789.
    Melba Smith, as natural guardian for Thelma Smith 123-45-6789 P.O.D. 
Bartholomew Smith.

    (4) Executors and administrators. A bond may be registered in the 
name of the representative appointed by a court to act for an estate of 
a decedent, or in the name of an executor authorized to administer a 
trust under the terms of a will although not named trustee. The name and 
capacity of all the representatives as shown in the letters of 
appointment must be included in the registration and be followed by an 
adequate identifying reference to the estate. Examples:

    John H. Smith and Calvin N. Jones, executors of the will (or 
administrators of the estate) of Robert J. Smith, deceased 12-3456789.

[[Page 157]]

trust for Mrs. Jane L. Smith, with remainder over 12-3456789.

    (5) Trustee or life tenants under wills, deeds of trust, agreements, 
or similar instruments. A bond may be registered in the name and title 
of the trustee of a trust estate, or in the name of a life tenant, 
followed by an adequate identifying reference to the authority governing 
the trust or life tenancy. Examples:

    Thomas J. White and Tenth National Bank, trustees under the will of 
Robert J. Smith, deceased 12-3456789.

    Paul E. White, trustee under declaration of trust dated 2/1/76, 12-
3456789.

    (i) If the trust instrument designates by title only an officer of a 
board or an organization as trustee, only the title of the officer 
should be used. Example:

    Chairman, Board of Trustees, First Church of Christ, Scientist, of 
Chicago, Illinois, in trust under the will of Robert J. Smith, deceased 
12-3456789.

    (ii) The names of all trustees, in the form used in the trust 
instrument, must be included in the registration, except as follows:
    (A) If there are several trustees designated as a board or they are 
required to act as a unit, their names may be omitted and the words 
``Board of Trustees'' substituted for the word ``trustee''. Example:

    Board of Trustees of Immediate Relief Trust of Federal Aid 
Association, under trust indenture dated 2/1/76, 12-3456789.

    (B) If the trustees do not constitute a board or are not required to 
act as a unit, and are too numerous to be designated in the registration 
by names and title, some or all the names may be omitted. Examples:

    John A. Smith, Henry B. Jones, et al., trustees under the will of 
Edwin O. Mann, deceased 12-3456789.
    Trustees under the will of Edwin O. Mann, deceased 12-3456789.

    (6) Employee thrift, savings, vacation and similar plans. A bond may 
be registered in the name and title, or title alone, of the trustee of 
an eligible employee thrift, savings, vacation or similar plan, as 
defined in Sec. 316.5, of Department of the Treasury Circular No. 653, 
current revision. If the instrument creating the trust provides that the 
trustees shall serve for a limited term, their names may be omitted.

Company, U/A with the company, dated March 31, 1976, 12-3456789.

    (7) Funds of lodges, churches, societies, or similar organizations. 
A bond may be registered in the title of the trustees, or a board of 
trustees, holding funds in trust for a lodge, church, or society, or

non-profit organizations. A bond may be registered in the name of a 
bank, trust company, or other financial institution, or an individual, 
as agent under an agreement with a religious, educational, charitable or 
non-profit organization, whether or not incorporated, if the agent holds 
funds for the sole purpose of investing them and paying the income to 
the organization. The name and designation of the agent must be followed 
by an adequate reference to the agreement. Examples:

    Tenth National Bank, fiscal agent U/A with the Evangelical Lutheran 
Church of

[[Page 158]]

the Holy Trinity, dated 12/28/76, 12-3456789.

in the title of the principal or other officer of a public, private, or 
parochial school holding funds in trust for a student body fund or for a 
class, group, or activity. If the amount purchased for any one fund does 
not exceed $2,500 (face amount), no reference need be made to a trust 
instrument. Examples:

    Principal, Western High School, in trust for the Class of 1976 
Library Fund, 12-3456789.
    Director of Athletics, Western High School, in trust for Student

private organization in its own right. The full legal name of the 
organization as set forth in its charter, articles of incorporation,

be used for a trust fund, board of trustees, a partnership, or a sole 
proprietorship. If the association is chartered by or affiliated with a 
parent organization, the name or designation of the subordinate or local 
organization must be given first, followed by the name of the parent

each series and savings notes that might be purchased in any one year in 
the name of any one person or organization. The amounts applicable to

varied from time to time, can be found in the appropriate offering 
circulars, as revised and amended.



Sec. 315.11  Excess purchases.

    The Commissioner of the Public Debt may permit excess purchases to 
stand in any particular case or class of cases.



              Subpart D--Limitations on Transfer or Pledge



Sec. 315.15  Transfer.

    Savings bonds are not transferable and are payable only to the 
owners named on the bonds, except as specifically provided in these 
regulations and then only in the manner and to the extent so provided.



Sec. 315.16  Pledge.

    (a) General. A savings bond may not be hypothecated, pledged, or 
used as security for the performance of an obligation, except as 
provided in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Pledge under Treasury Circular No. 154. A bond may be pledged by 
the registered owner in lieu of surety under the provisions of 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 154, current revision (31 CFR 
part 225), if the bond approving officer is the Secretary of the 
Treasury. In this case, an irrevocable power of attorney shall be 
executed authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to request payment.



 Subpart E--Limitations on Judicial Proceedings--No Stoppage or Caveats 
                                Permitted



Sec. 315.20  General.

    The following general rules apply to the recognition of a judicial 
determination on adverse claims affecting savings bonds:
    (a) The Department of the Treasury will not recognize a judicial 
determination that gives effect to an attempted voluntary transfer inter 
vivos of a bond, or a judicial determination that impairs the rights of 
survivorship conferred by these regulations upon a coowner or 
beneficiary. All provisions of this Subpart are subject to these 
restrictions.
    (b) The Department of the Treasury will recognize a claim against an 
owner of a savings bond and conflicting claims of ownership of, or 
interest in, a bond between coowners or between the

[[Page 160]]

registered owner and the beneficiary, if established by valid, judicial 
proceedings, but only as specifically provided in this subpart. Section 
315.23 specifies the evidence required to establish the validity of the 
judicial proceedings.
    (c) The Department of the Treasury and the agencies that issue, 
reissue, or redeem savings bonds will not accept a notice of an adverse 
claim or notice of pending judicial proceedings, nor undertake to 
protect the interests of a litigant not in possession of a savings bond.



Sec. 315.21  Payment to judgment creditors.

    (a) Purchaser or officer under levy. The Department of the Treasury 
will pay (but not reissue) a savings bond to the purchaser at a sale 
under a levy or to the officer authorized under appropriate process to 
levy upon property of the registered owner or coowner to satisfy a money 
judgment. Payment will be made only to the extent necessary to satisfy 
the money judgment. The amount paid is limited to the redemption value 
60 days after the termination of the judicial proceedings. Payment of a 
bond registered in coownership form pursuant to a judgment or a levy 
against only one coowner is limited to the extent of that coowner's 
interest in the bond. That interest must be established by an agreement 
between the coowners or by a judgment, decree, or order of a court in a 
proceeding to which both coowners are parties.
    (b) Trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, or similar court officer. The 
Department of the Treasury will pay, at current redemption value, a 
savings bond to a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver of an insolvent's 
estate, a receiver in equity, or a similar court officer under the 
provisions of paragraph (a) of this section.



Sec. 315.22  Payment or reissue pursuant to judgment.

    (a) Divorce. The Department of the Treasury will recognize a divorce 
decree that ratifies or confirms a property settlement agreement 
disposing of bonds or that otherwise settles the interests of the 
parties in a bond. Reissue of a savings bond may be made to eliminate 
the name of one spouse as owner, coowner, or beneficiary, or to 
substitute the name of one spouse for that of the other spouse as owner, 
coowner, or beneficiary pursuant to the decree. However, if the bond is 
registered in the name of one spouse with another person as coowner, 
there must be submitted either:
    (1) A request for reissue by the other person or
    (2) A certified copy of a judgment, decree, or court order entered 
in proceedings to which the other person and the spouse named on the 
bond are parties, determining the extent of the interest of that spouse 
in the bond.

Reissue will be permitted only to the extent of that spouse's interest. 
The evidence required under Sec. 315.23 must be submitted in every case. 
When the divorce decree does not set out the terms of the property 
settlement agreement, a certified copy of the agreement must be 
submitted. Payment, rather than reissue, will be made if requested.
    (b) Gift causa mortis. A savings bond belonging solely to one 
individual will be paid or reissued at the request of the person found 
by a court to be entitled by reason of a gift causa mortis from the sole 
owner.
    (c) Date for determining rights. When payment or reissue under this 
section is to be made, the rights of the parties will be those existing 
under the regulations current at the time of the entry of the final 
judgment, decree, or court order.



Sec. 315.23  Evidence.

    (a) General. To establish the validity of judicial proceedings, 
certified copies of the final judgment, decree, or court order, and of 
any necessary supplementary proceedings, must be submitted. If the 
judgment, decree, or court order was rendered more than six months prior 
to the presentation of the bond, there must also be submitted a 
certificate from the clerk of the court, under court seal, dated within 
six months of the presentation of the bond, showing that the judgment, 
decree, or court order is in full force.
    (b) Trustee in bankruptcy or receiver of an insolvent's estate. A 
request for payment by a trustee in bankruptcy or a receiver of an 
insolvent's estate must be supported by appropriate evidence of 
appointment and qualification. The

[[Page 161]]

evidence must be certified by the clerk of the court, under court seal, 
as being in full force on a date that is not more than six months prior 
to the presentation of the bond.
    (c) Receiver in equity or similar court officer. A request for 
payment by the receiver in equity or a similar court officer, other than 
a receiver of an insolvent's estate, must be supported by a copy of an 
order that authorizes the presentation of the bond for redemption, 
certified by the clerk of the court, under court seal, as being in full 
force on a date that is not more than six months prior to the 
presentation of the bond.



Subpart F--Relief for Loss, Theft, Destruction, Mutilation, Defacement, 
                         or Nonreceipt of Bonds



Sec. 315.25  General.

    Relief, by the issue of a substitute bond or by payment, is 
authorized for the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement 
of a bond after receipt by the owner or his or her representative. As a 
condition for granting relief, the Commissioner of the Public Debt, as 
designee of the Secretary of the Treasury, may require a bond of 
indemnity, in the form, and with the surety, or security, he considers 
necessary to protect the interests of the United States. In all cases 
the savings bond must be identified by serial number and the applicant 
must submit satisfactory evidence of the loss, theft, or destruction, or 
a satisfactory explanation of the mutilation or defacement.



Sec. 315.26  Application for relief--after receipt of bond.

    (a) Serial number known. If the serial number of the lost, stolen, 
or destroyed bond is known, the claimant should execute an application 
for relief on the appropriate form and submit it to the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26101.
    (b) Serial number not known. If the bond serial number is not known, 
the claimant must provide sufficient information to enable the Bureau of 
the Public Debt to identify the bond by serial number. See 
Sec. 315.29(c). The Bureau will furnish the proper application form and 
instructions.
    (c) Defaced or mutilated bond. A defaced bond and all available 
fragments of a mutilated bond should be submitted to the Bureau.
    (d) Execution of claims application. The application must be made by 
the person or persons (including both coowners, if living) authorized 
under these regulations to request payment of the bonds. In addition--
    (1) If the bond is in beneficiary form and the owner and beneficiary 
are both living, both will ordinarily be required to join in the 
application.
    (2) If a minor named on a bond as owner, coowner, or beneficiary is 
not of sufficient competency and understanding to request payment, both 
parents will ordinarily be required to join in the application.
    (e) If the application is approved, relief will be granted by the 
issuance of a bond bearing the same issue date as the bond for which the 
claim was filed or by the issuance of a check in payment.



Sec. 315.27  Application for relief--nonreceipt of bond.

    If a bond issued on any transaction is not received, the issuing 
agent must be notified as promptly as possible and given all information 
available about the nonreceipt. An appropriate form and instructions 
will be provided. If the application is approved, relief will be granted 
by the issuance of a bond bearing the same issue date as the bond that 
was not received.



Sec. 315.28  Recovery or receipt of bond before or after relief is granted.

    (a) Recovery prior to granting relief. If a bond reported lost, 
stolen, destroyed, or not received, is recovered or received before 
relief is granted, the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26101, 
must be notified promptly.
    (b) Recovery subsequent to granting of relief. A bond for which 
relief has been granted is the property of the United States and, if 
recovered, must be promptly submitted to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Parkersburg, WV 26101, for cancellation.

[[Page 162]]



Sec. 315.29  Adjudication of claims.

    (a) General. The Bureau of the Public Debt will adjudicate claims 
for lost, stolen or destroyed bonds on the basis of records created and 
regularly maintained in the ordinary course of business.
    (b) Claims filed ten years after payment. A bond for which no claim 
has been filed within ten years of the recorded date of redemption will 
be presumed to have been properly paid. If a claim is subsequently 
filed, a photographic copy of the bond will not be available to support 
the disallowance. This provision will be effective 60 days after the 
effective date of the Eleventh Revision of Department of the Treasury 
Circular No. 530 (31 CFR part 315).
    (c) Claims filed six years after final maturity. No claim filed six 
years or more after the final maturity of a savings bond will be 
entertained, unless the claimant supplies the serial number of the bond.



                           Subpart G--Interest



Sec. 315.30  Series E bonds and savings notes.

    Series E bonds and savings notes are discount securities. The 
accrued interest is added to the issue price at stated intervals and is 
payable only at redemption as part of the redemption value. All Series E 
bonds and savings notes have been extended and continue to earn interest 
until their final maturity dates, unless redeemed earlier. Information 
regarding extended maturity periods, investment yields and redemption 
values is found in Department of the Treasury Circular No. 653, current 
revision (31 CFR part 316) for Series E bonds, and in Department of the 
Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 3-67, current revision (31 CFR 
part 342) for savings notes.



Sec. 315.31  Series H bonds.

    (a) General. Series H bonds are current income bonds issued at par 
(face amount). Interest on a Series H bond is paid semiannually 
beginning six months from the issue date. Interest ceases at final 
maturity, or if the bond is redeemed prior to final maturity, as of the 
end of the interest period last preceding the date of redemption. For 
example, if a bond on which interest is payable on January 1 and July 1 
is redeemed on September 1, interest ceases as of the preceding July 1, 
and no interest will be paid for the period from July 1 to September 1. 
However, if the redemption date falls on an interest payment date, 
interest ceases on that date. Information regarding authorized extended 
maturity periods and investment yields is found in Department Circular 
No. 905, current revision (31 CFR part 332).
    (b) Payment of interest. Series H bond interest accounts are 
maintained by the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV. Interest 
is paid on each payment date by check drawn to the order of the owner or 
both coowners or, upon request, by the Automated Clearing House (ACH) 
method to the owner or coowner's account at a financial institution. 
Checks will be mailed to the delivery address provided to the Bureau. 
Deposit account information for Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments 
shall be provided on the form designated by the Bureau. Rules governing 
submission of deposit account information are contained in paragraph (h) 
of this section.
    (c) Delivery of interest--(1) Notices affecting the delivery of 
interest payments. To ensure appropriate action, notices affecting the 
delivery of interest payments on Series H bonds must be received by the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV, 26102-1328, at least one 
month prior to the interest payment date. Each notice must include the 
owner or coowner's name and the taxpayer identifying number appearing on 
the account under which records of the bonds are maintained. The notice 
must be signed by the owner or coowner, or, in the case of a minor or 
incompetent, as provided in paragraph (d) or (e) of this section.

(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 
1535-0094)

    (2) Owner or coowner deceased--(i) Sole owner. Upon receipt of 
notice of the death of the owner of a bond, payment of interest will be 
suspended until satisfactory evidence is submitted as to who is 
authorized to receive and collect

[[Page 163]]

interest payments on behalf of the estate of the decedent, in accordance 
with the provisions of subpart L.
    (ii) Coowner. Upon receipt of notice of the death of the ooowner to 
whom interest payments have been directed, payment of interest will be 
suspended until delivery instructions are received from the other 
coowner, if living. If both coowners are deceased, payment of interest 
will be suspended until satisfactory evidence is submitted as to who is 
authorized to receive and collect interest payments on behalf of the 
estate of the last deceased coowner, in accordance with the provisions 
of subpart L.
    (iii) Owner with beneficiary. Interest on a bond registered in 
beneficiary form is paid to the owner during his or her lifetime. Upon 
receiving notice of the owner's death, the Bureau of the Public Debt 
will suspend payment of interest until the bond is presented for payment 
or reissue by the beneficiary, if surviving, or some other proper party. 
Interest so withheld will be paid to the person entitled to the bond.
    (d) Representative appointed for the estate of a minor, incompetent, 
absentee, et al. Interest on Series H bonds is paid in accordance with 
the provisions of Sec. 315.60 to the representative appointed for the 
estate of an owner who is a minor, incompetent, absentee, et al. If the 
registration of the bonds does not include reference to the owner's 
status, the bonds should be submitted for reissue to a designated 
Federal Reserve Bank so that interest payments may be properly 
delivered. They must be accompanied by proof of appointment as required 
by Sec. 315.60.
    (e) Adult incapacitated owner having no representative. If an adult 
owner of a Series H bond is incompetent to receive and collect interest 
payments, and no legal guardian or similar representative has been 
appointed to act for him or her, the relative, or other person, 
responsible for the owner's care and support may apply to the Bureau of 
the Public Debt for recognition as voluntary guardian for the purpose of 
receiving and collecting the payments.
    (f) Reissue during interest period. Physical reissue of a Series H 
bond may be made without regard to interest payment dates. The Series H 
accounts maintained by the Bureau of the Public Debt will be closed in 
the first week of the month preceding each interest payment date, and 
payments will be made pursuant to the information contained in the 
accounts as of the date they are closed.
    (g) Endorsement of checks. Interest checks must be endorsed in 
accordance with the regulations governing the payment of fiscal agency 
checks contained in 31 CFR part 355.
    (h) Deposit account information for ACH payments--(1) Submission of 
deposit account information. To obtain payment of interest by the ACH 
method, the owner or coowner must furnish the name and ABA routing/
transit number of the financial institution to which the payments are to 
be directed, as well as the deposit account title, number, and type or 
classification of the account. Deposit account information shall be 
provided on the form(s) prescribed by the Bureau of the Public Debt. 
Payments on all Series H bonds assigned to the same account maintained 
by the Bureau will be made to the same deposit account at a financial 
institution. If the financial institution designated to receive the 
interest payments has not agreed to receive and deposit payments under 
31 CFR part 210, but is willing to do so, it should be asked to contact 
a Federal Reserve Bank for enrollment advice.
    (2) Designation of financial institution as owner's agent. The 
designation of a financial institution to receive Series H interest 
payments by an owner or coowner constitutes the appointment of that 
institution as his or her agent for receipt of the payments.
    (3) Deposit account held by individuals in their own right. Where 
the Series H bonds are registered in the name of individual(s) as sole 
owner, or as owner and beneficiary, and the deposit account at the 
financial institution is held in the name of individual(s) in their own 
right, the owner's name must appear on the deposit account. Where the 
bonds are registered in the names of two individuals as coowners and the 
deposit account is held in the name of individual(s) in their own right, 
the registration of the bonds and the title of the account must contain 
at least one name that is common to both. The

[[Page 164]]

deposit account to which the interest payments are directed should 
preferably be established in a form identical to the registration of the 
bonds to ensure that rights of ownership and survivorship can be more 
easily identified and preserved. Neither the United States nor any 
Federal Reserve Bank shall be liable for any loss sustained because the 
interest(s) of the holder(s) of a deposit account to which payments are 
directed are not the same as the owner(s) of the bonds.
    (4) Deposit account held by organization. Where the deposit account 
to which interest payments are to be directed is held in the name of the 
financial institution itself, acting as sole trustee or as co-trustee, 
or is in the name of a commercially-managed investment fund, the owner 
or coowner should inquire whether the financial institution is able to 
receive ACH payments; if not, the owner or coowner should make 
alternative arrangements.
    (5) Financial institution cannot accept ACH payments. If after 
submission of deposit account information, it is determined that ACH 
payments cannot be accepted by the designated financial institution, 
pending receipt of new deposit account information, payment will be made 
by check drawn to the registered owner or both coowners and mailed to 
the address of record.
    (6) Cancellation of ACH arrangement. An ACH arrangement established 
in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section shall remain in effect 
until it is terminated by one of the following events:
    (i) The owner or coowner submits a request to the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26102-1328, to terminate the ACH 
arrangement;
    (ii) A change in the title of the deposit account to which payments 
are being directed alters the interest of the person(s) entitled to the 
payments;
    (iii) An individual named on the deposit account dies or is declared 
legally incompetent;
    (iv) The account is closed; or
    (v) The ACH arrangement is terminated unilaterally by the financial 
institution after having given written notice to the account holder 30 
days in advance of the termination, except in cases of fraud, where 
termination shall be effective immediately.
    (7) Suspension of ACH payments. Upon receipt of notice that a 
designated deposit account has been closed, that an individual named on 
such account is dead or has been declared legally incompetent, or where 
the corporation is the owner and it has been dissolved, the Bureau 
reserves the right to suspend ACH payments, pending satisfactory 
evidence of entitlement. See paragraph (c) of this section regarding 
suspension of payments in the case of deceased individuals.
    (8) Processing of ACH payments. Series H interest payments made by 
the ACH method will be processed in accordance with 31 CFR part 370.
    (i) Nonreceipt or loss of interest payment. The Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328, should be notified if:
    (1) An interest check is not received or is lost after receipt or
    (2) An ACH payment is not credited to the designated account and the 
financial institution has no record of receiving it. The notice should 
include the owner or coowner's name and taxpayer identifying number and 
the interest payment date.

Sec. 315.32  Series A, B, C, D, F, G, J, and K bonds.

    All bonds of these series have matured and no longer earn interest.



                Subpart H--General Provisions for Payment



Sec. 315.35  Payment (redemption).

    (a) General. Payment of a savings bond will be made to the person or 
persons entitled under the provisions of these regulations, except that 
checks in payment will not be delivered to addresses in areas with 
respect to which the Department of the Treasury restricts or regulates 
the delivery of checks drawn against funds of the United States. See 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR 
part 211). Payment will be made without regard to any notice of

[[Page 165]]

adverse claims to a bond and no notification of stoppage or caveat 
against payment of a bond will be made.
    (b) Series A, B, C, D, F, and J. A bond of Series A, B, C, D, F, or 
J will be paid at face value.
    (c) Series E and Savings Notes. A Series E bond will be paid at any 
time after two months from issue date at the appropriate redemption 
value shown in Department of the Treasury Circular No. 653 (31 CFR part 
316), current revision. A savings note will be paid at anytime at the 
appropriate redemption value shown in Department of the Treasury 
Circular, Public Debt Series No. 3-67, current revision (31 CFR part 
342).
    (d) Series G and K. A bond of Series G or K will be paid at face 
value plus the final semiannual interest due. For Series G bonds, the 
final interest paid with principal is $1.25 per $100; for Series K 
bonds, the final interest is $6.90 per $500.
    (e) Series H. A Series H bond will be redeemed at face value at any 
time after six (6) months from issue date. In any case where Series H 
bonds are surrendered to a designated Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or 
the Department of the Treasury for redemption in the month prior to an 
interest payment date, redemption will not be deferred but will be made 
in regular course, unless the presenter specifically requests that the 
transaction be delayed until that date. A request to defer redemption 
made more than one month preceding the interest payment date will not be 
accepted.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 51 FR 23753, July 1, 1986; 
59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 315.36  Payment during life of sole owner.

    A savings bond registered in single ownership form (i.e., without a 
coowner or beneficiary) will be paid to the owner during his or her 
lifetime upon surrender with an appropriate request.



Sec. 315.37  Payment during lives of both coowners.

    A savings bond registered in coownership form will be paid to either 
coowner upon surrender with an appropriate request, and, upon payment 
(as determined in Sec. 315.43), the other coowner will cease to have any 
interest in the bond. If both coowners request payment and payment is to 
be made by check, the check will be drawn in the form, ``John A. Jones 
and Mary C. Jones''.



Sec. 315.38  Payment during lifetime of owner of beneficiary bond.

    A savings bond registered in beneficiary form will be paid to the 
registered owner during his or her lifetime upon surrender with an 
appropriate request. Upon payment (as determined in Sec. 315.43), the 
beneficiary will cease to have any interest in the bond.



Sec. 315.39  Surrender for payment.

    (a) Procedure for bonds of Series A to E, inclusive, in the names of 
individual owners or coowners only. An individual who is the owner or 
coowner of a bond of Series A, B, C, D, or E may present the bond to an 
authorized paying agent for redemption. The presenter must be prepared 
to establish his or her identity in accordance with Treasury 
instructions and identification guidelines. The owner or coowner must 
sign the request for payment on the bond or, if authorized, on a 
separate detached request, and add his or her address. In addition, in 
the case of a Series E bond or savings note, the presenter must record 
his or her social security number on the face of the security, provided 
it does not already appear in the inscription. Paying agents are 
authorized to refuse payment in any case where the presenter's number is 
not provided. If the request for payment has been signed, or signed and 
certified, before presentation of the bond, the paying agent must be 
satisfied that the person presenting the bond for payment is the owner 
or coowner and may require the person to sign the request for payment 
again. If the bond is in order for payment, the paying agent will make 
immediate payment at the current redemption value without charge to the 
presenter. Paying agents are not authorized to process any case 
involving partial redemption or any case in which supporting evidence is 
required.
    (b) Procedure for all other cases. In the case of a bond to which 
the procedure

[[Page 166]]

in paragraph (a) of this section does not apply, or if otherwise 
preferred, the owner or coowner, or other person entitled to payment, 
should appear before an officer authorized to certify requests for 
payment, establish his or her identity, sign the request for payment, 
and provide information as to the addresss to which the check in payment 
is to be mailed. In addition, in the case of a Series E bond or savings 
note, the presenter must record his or her social security number on the 
face of the security, provided it does not already appear in the 
inscription. The bond must be forwarded to a designated Federal Reserve 
Bank or Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt. Usually, payment will 
be expedited by submission to a designated Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch. In all cases, the cost and risk of presentation of a bond will 
be borne by the owner. Payment will be made by check drawn to the order 
of the registered owner or other person entitled and will be mailed to 
the address requested.
    (c) Date of request. Requests executed more than six months before 
the date of receipt of a bond for payment will not be accepted. Neither 
will a bond be accepted if payment is requested as of a date more than 
three months in the future.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 315.40  Special provisions for payment.

    (a) Owner's signature not required. A bond may be paid by a paying 
agent or a designated Federal Reserve Bank without the owner's signature 
to the request for payment, if the bond bears the special endorsement of 
a financial institution specifically qualified to place such an 
endorsement on savings bonds under the provisions of Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 888, current revision (31 CFR part 330).
    (b) Signature by mark. A signature by mark (X) must be witnessed by 
at least one disinterested person and a certifying officer. See subpart 
J. The witness must attest to the signature by mark substantially as 
follows: ``Witness to signature by mark,'' followed by his or her 
signature and address.
    (c) Name change. If the name of the owner, coowner, or other person 
entitled to payment, as it appears in the registration or in evidence on 
file in the Bureau of the Public Debt, has been changed in any legal 
manner, the signature to the request for payment must show both names 
and the manner in which the change was made; for example, ``Mary T. 
Jones Smith (Mary T. J. Smith or Mary T. Smith) changed by marriage from 
Mary T. Jones,'' or ``John R. Young, changed by order of court from Hans 
R. Jung.'' See Sec. 315.50.
    (d) Attorneys-in-fact. A request for payment, reinvestment, or 
exchange executed by an attorney-in-fact will be recognized if it is 
accompanied by a copy of the power of attorney that meets the following 
requirements:
    (1) The power of attorney must bear the grantor's signature, 
properly certified or notarized, in accordance with applicable State 
law;
    (2) The power of attorney must grant, by its terms, authority for 
the attorney-in-fact to sell or redeem the grantor's securities, sell 
his or her personal property, or, otherwise contain similar authority; 
and
    (3) In the case of a grantor who has become incapacitated, the power 
of attorney must conform with pertinent provisions of State law 
concerning its durability. Generally, in such circumstances, the power 
of attorney should provide that the authority granted will not be 
affected by the subsequent incompetence or incapacity of the grantor. 
Medical evidence or other proof of the grantor's condition may be 
required in any case.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 57 FR 39602, Sept. 1, 1992; 
59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 315.41  Partial redemption.

    A bond of any series may be redeemed in part at current redemption 
value, but only in an amount corresponding to one or more authorized 
denominations, upon surrender of the bond to a designated Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt in accordance 
with Sec. 315.39(b). In any case in which partial redemption is 
requested, the phrase ``to the extent of $---- (face amount) and reissue 
of the remainder'' should be

[[Page 167]]

added to the request. Upon partial redemption of the bond, the remainder 
will be reissued as of the original issue date, as provided in subpart 
I.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 315.42  Nonreceipt or loss of check issued in payment.

    If a Treasury check in payment of a bond surrendered for redemption 
is not received within a reasonable time or is lost after receipt, 
notice should be given to the same agency to which the bond was 
surrendered for payment. The notice should give the date the bond was 
surrendered for payment, and describe the bond by series, denomination, 
serial number, and registration, including the taxpayer identifying 
number of the owner.



Sec. 315.43  Effective date of request for payment.

    The Department of the Treasury will treat the receipt of a bond with 
an appropiate request for payment by:
    (a) A Federal Reserve Bank or Branch,
    (b) The Bureau of the Public Debt, or
    (c) A paying agent authorized to pay that bond, as the date upon 
which the rights of the parties are fixed for the purpose of payment.



Sec. 315.44  Withdrawal of request for payment.

    (a) Withdrawal by owner or coowner. An owner or coowner, who has 
surrendered a bond to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau 
of the Public Debt or an authorized paying agent with an appropriate 
request for payment, may withdraw the request if notice of intent to 
withdraw is received by the same agency prior to payment either in cash 
or through the issuance of the redemption check.
    (b) Withdrawal on behalf of deceased owner or incompetent. A request 
for payment may be withdrawn under the same conditions as in paragraph 
(a) of this section by the executor or administrator of the estate of a 
deceased owner or by the person or persons who would have been entitled 
to the bond under subpart L, or by the legal representative of the 
estate of a person under legal disability, unless surrender of the bond 
for payment has eliminated the interest of a surviving coowner or 
beneficiary. See Sec. 315.70 (b) and (c).



             Subpart I--Reissue and Denominational Exchange



Sec. 315.45  General.

    Reissue of a bond may be made only under the conditions specified in 
these regulations, and only at:
    (a) A Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, or
    (b) The Bureau of the Public Debt.

Reissue will not be made if the request is received less than one full 
calendar month before the final maturity date of a bond. The request, 
however, will be effective to establish ownership as though the reissue 
had been made.



Sec. 315.46  Effective date of request for reissue.

    The Department of the Treasury will treat the receipt by:
    (a) A Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or
    (b) The Bureau of the Public Debt of a bond and an acceptable 
request for reissue as determining the date upon which the rights of the 
parties are fixed for the purpose of reissue.

For example, if the owner or either coowner of a bond dies after the 
bond has been surrendered for reissue, the bond will be regarded as 
having been reissued in the decedent's lifetime.



Sec. 315.47  Authorized reissue--during lifetime.

    A bond belonging to an individual may be reissued in any authorized 
form of registration upon an appropriate request for the purposes 
outlined below:
    (a) Single ownership. A bond registered in single ownership form may 
be reissued--
    (1) To add a coowner or beneficiary;
    (2) To name a new owner, with or without a coowner or beneficiary, 
but only if:
    (i) The new owner is related to the previous owner by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage,
    (ii) The previous owner and the new owner are parties to a divorce 
or annulment, or

[[Page 168]]

    (iii) The new sole owner is the trustee of a personal trust estate 
which was created by the previous owner or which designates as 
beneficiary either the previous owner or a person related to him or her 
by blood (including legal adoption) or marriage.
    (b) Coownership--(1) Reissue--to name a related individual as owner 
or coowner. During the lifetime of both coowners, a coownership bond may 
be reissued in the name of another individual related by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage to either coowner--
    (i) As single owner,
    (ii) As owner with one of the original coowners as beneficiary, or
    (iii) As a new coowner with one of the original coowners.
    (2) Reissue--to name either coowner alone or with another individual 
as coowner or beneficiary. During the lifetime of both coowners, a 
coownership bond may be reissued in the name of either coowner alone or 
with another individual as coowner or beneficiary if--
    (i) After issue of the submitted bond, either coowner named thereon 
marries, or the coowners are divorced or legally separated from each 
other, or their marriage is annulled; or
    (ii) Both coowners on the submitted bond are related by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage to each other.
    (3) Reissue--to name the trustee of a personal trust estate. A bond 
registered in coownership form may be reissued to name a trustee of a 
personal trust estate created by either coowner or by some other person 
if:
    (i) Either coowner is a beneficiary of the trust, or
    (ii) A beneficiary of the trust is related by blood or marriage to 
either coowner.
    (c) Beneficiary. A bond registered in beneficiary form may be 
reissued--
    (1) To name the beneficiary as coowner;
    (2) To eliminate the name of the owner and to name as owner a 
custodian for the beneficiary, if a minor, under a statute authorizing 
gifts to minors;
    (3) To eliminate the beneficiary or to substitute another individual 
as beneficiary, but only if the request is supported by the certified 
consent of the beneficiary or by proof of his or her death; or
    (4) To eliminate the names of the owner and the beneficiary and to 
name as new owner the trustee of the personal trust estate which was 
created by the previous owner or which designates as beneficiary either 
the previous owner or a person related to him or her by blood (including 
legal adoption) or marriage, but only if the request is supported by the 
certified consent of the beneficiary or by proof of his or her death.



Sec. 315.48  Restrictions on reissue.

    (a) Denominational exchange. Reissue is not permitted solely to 
change denominations.
    (b) United States Treasury. Reissue may not be made to eliminate the 
United States Treasury as coowner or beneficiary.



Sec. 315.49  Correction of errors.

    A bond may be reissued to correct an error in registration upon 
appropriate request, supported by satisfactory proof of the error.



Sec. 315.50  Change of name.

    An owner, coowner, or beneficiary whose name is changed by marriage, 
divorce, annulment, order of court, or in any other legal manner after 
the issue of bond should submit the bond with a request for reissue to 
substitute the new name for the name inscribed on the bond. Documentary 
evidence may be required in any appropriate case.



Sec. 315.51  Requests for reissue.

    A request for reissue of bonds in coownership form during the 
lifetime of the coowners must be signed by both coowners, except that a 
request solely to eliminate the name of one coowner may be signed by 
that coowner only. A bond registered in beneficiary form may be reissued 
upon the request of the owner, supported by the certified consent of the 
beneficiary or by proof of his or her death. Public Debt forms are 
available for requesting reissue.

    Subpart K--Minors, Incompetents, Aged Persons, Absentees, et al.



Sec. 315.60  Conditions for payment to representative of an estate.

    (a) General. The representative of an estate of an owner who is a 
minor, an aged person, incompetent, absentee, et al., may receive upon 
request--
    (1) If the registration shows the name and capacity of the 
representative;
    (2) If the registration shows the capacity but not the name of the 
representative and the request is accompanied by appropriate evidence; 
or
    (3) If the registration includes neither the name of the 
representative nor his or her capacity but the request is accompanied by 
appropriate evidence.
    (b) Evidence. Appropriate evidence for paragraphs (a) (2) and (3) of 
this section includes a certified copy of the letters of appointment or, 
if the representative is not appointed by a court, other proof of 
qualification. Except in thee case of corporate fiduciaries, the 
evidence must show that the appointment is in full force and be dated 
not more than one year prior to the presentation of the bond for 
payment. The request for payment appearing on the back of a bond must be 
signed by the representative as such, for example, ``John S. Jones, 
guardian (committee) of the estate of Henry W. Smith, a minor (an 
incompetent).''



Sec. 315.61  Payment after death.

    After the death of the ward, and at any time prior to the 
representative's discharge, the representative of the estate will be 
entitled to obtain payment of a bond to which the ward was solely 
entitled.



Sec. 315.62  Payment to minors.

    If the owner of a savings bond is a minor and the form of 
registration does not indicate that there is a representative of the 
minor's estate, payment will be made to the minor upon his or her 
request, provided the minor is of sufficient competency to sign the 
request for payment and to understand

[[Page 171]]

the nature of the transaction. In general, the fact that the request for 
payment has been signed by a minor and certified will be accepted as 
sufficient proof of competency and understanding.



Sec. 315.63  Payment to a parent or other person on behalf of a minor.

    If the owner of a savings bond is a minor and the form of 
registration does not indicate that there is a representative of his or 
her estate, and if the minor is not of sufficient competency to sign the 
request for payment and to understand the nature of the transaction, 
payment will be made to either parent with whom the minor resides or to 
whom legal custody has been granted. If the minor does not reside with 
either parent, payment will be made to the person who furnishes the 
chief support for the minor. The request must appear on the back of the 
bond in one of the following forms:
    (a) Request by parent.

    I certify that I am the mother of John C. Jones (with whom he 
resides) (to whom legal custody has been granted). He is ---- years of 
age and is not of sufficient understanding to make this request.

    Mary Jones on behalf of John C. Jones.

    (b) Request by other person.

    I certify that John C. Jones does not reside with either parent and 
that I furnish his chief support. He is ---- years of age and is not of 
sufficient understanding to make this request.

Sec. 315.64  Payment, reinvestment, or exchange--voluntary guardian of an incapacitated person.

    (a) Payment of bonds. When an adult owner of bonds is incapable of 
requesting payment as a result of incapacity and there is no other 
person legally qualified to do so, the relative, or other person, 
responsible for the owner's care and support may submit an application 
for recognition as voluntary guardian for the purpose of redeeming the 
owner's bonds, if the total redemption value of all of the owner's bonds 
does not exceed $20,000. The redemption value of the bonds shall be 
determined as of the date the bonds are received, accompanied by an 
appropriate request for payment. If the total redemption value exceeds 
$20,000, a legal representative must be appointed, as set forth in 
Sec. 315.60.
    (b) Reinvestment of bonds. If the bonds have finally matured and it 
is desired to redeem them and reinvest the proceeds in other savings 
bonds, the new bonds must be registered in the name of the incapacitated 
person, followed by words showing that he or she is under voluntary 
guardianship; for example, ``John Jones 123-45-6789, under voluntary 
guardianship''. A living coowner or beneficiary named on the matured 
bonds must be designated on the new bonds, unless such person furnishes 
a certified statement consenting to omission of his or her name. If an 
amount insufficient to purchase an additional bond of any authorized 
denomination of either series remains after the reinvestment, the 
voluntary guardian may furnish additional funds sufficient to purchase 
another bond of either series of the lowest available denomination. If 
additional funds are not furnished, the remaining amount will be paid to 
the voluntary guardian for the use and benefit of the incapacitated 
person.
    (c) Exchange of bonds. The provisions for reinvestment of the 
proceeds of matured bonds are equally applicable to any authorized 
exchange of bonds of one series for those of another.
[57 FR 39602, Sept. 1, 1992]



Sec. 315.65  Reissue.

    A bond on which a minor or other person under legal disability is 
named as the owner or coowner, or in which he or she has an interest, 
may be reissued under the following conditions:
    (a) A minor for whose estate no representative has been appointed 
may request reissue if the minor is of sufficient competency to sign his 
or her name to the request and to understand the nature of the 
transaction.
    (b) A bond on which a minor is named as beneficiary or coowner may 
be reissued in the name of a custodian for the minor under a statute 
authorizing gifts to minors upon the request of the adult whose name 
appears on the bond as owner or coowner.
    (c) A minor coowner for whose estate no representative has been 
appointed,

[[Page 172]]

may be named sole owner upon the request of the competent coowner.
    (d) Reissue to eliminate the name of a minor or incompetent for 
whose estate a legal representative has been appointed is permitted only 
if supported by evidence that a court has authorized the representative 
of the minor's or incompetent's estate to request the reissue. See 
Sec. 315.23.

Except to the extent provided in paragraphs (a) through (d), of this 
section, reissue will be restricted to a form of registration which does 
not adversely affect the existing ownership or interest of a minor who 
is not of sufficient understanding to make a request, or other person 
under legal disability. Requests for reissue should be executed by the 
person authorized to request payment under Secs. 315.60 and 315.63, or 
the person who may request recognition as voluntary guardian under 
Sec. 315.64.

1992]



            Subpart L--Deceased Owner, Coowner or Beneficiary



Sec. 315.70  General rules governing entitlement.

    The following rules govern ownership or entitlement where one or 
both of the persons named on a bond have died without the bond having 
been surrendered for payment or reissue:
    (a) Single owner bond. If the owner of a bond registered in single 
ownership form has died, the bond becomes the property of that 
decedent's estate, and payment or reissue will be made as provided in 
this subpart.
    (b) Coowner bond--(1) One coowner deceased. If one of the coowners 
named on a bond has died, the surviving coowner will be recognized as 
its sole and absolute owner, and payment or reissue will be made as 
though the bond were registered in the name of the survivor alone. Any 
request for reissue by the surviving coowner must be supported by proof 
of death of the other coowner.
    (2) Both coowners deceased. If both coowners named on a bond have 
died, the bond becomes the property of the estate of the coowner who 
died last, and payment or reissue will be made as if the bond were 
registered in the name of the last deceased coowner alone. Proof of 
death of both coowners will be required to establish the order of death.
    (3) Simultaneous death of both coowners. If both coowners die under 
conditions where it cannot be established, either by presumption of law 
or otherwise, which coowner died first, the bond becomes the property of 
both equally, and payment or reissue will be made accordingly.
    (c) Beneficiary bond--(1) Owner deceased. If the owner of a bond 
registered in beneficiary form has died and is survived by the 
beneficiary, upon proof of death of the owner, the beneficiary will be 
recognized as the sole and absolute owner of the bond. Payment or 
reissue will be made as though the bond were registered in the 
survivor's name alone. A request for payment or reissue by the 
beneficiary must be supported by proof of death of the owner.
    (2) Beneficiary deceased. If the beneficiary's death occurs before, 
or simultaneous with, that of the registered owner, payment or reissue 
will be made as though the bond were registered in the owner's name 
alone. Proof of death of the owner and beneficiary is required to 
establish the order of death.
    (d) Nonresident aliens. If the person who becomes entitled to a bond 
because of the death of an owner is an alien who is a resident of an 
area with respect to which the Department of the Treasury restricts or 
regulates the delivery of checks drawn against funds of the United 
States or its agencies or instrumentalities, delivery of the redemption 
check will not be made so long as the restriction applies. See 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR 
part 211).



Sec. 315.71  Estate administered.

    (a) During administration. The legal representative of an estate may 
request payment of bonds, including interest or redemption checks, 
belonging to the estate or may have the bonds reissued in the names of 
the persons entitled to share in the estate under the following 
conditions:

[[Page 173]]

    (1) When there is more than one legal representative, all must join 
in the request for payment or reissue, unless Sec. 315.75(a)(1) or (b) 
applies.
    (2) The request for payment or reissue must be signed in the form: 
``John A. Jones, administrator of the estate (or executor of the will) 
of Henry M. Jones, deceased''. The request must be supported by evidence 
of the legal representative's authority in the form of a court 
certificate or a certified copy of the legal representative's letters of 
appointment which must be dated within six months of the date of 
presentation of the bond, unless the evidence shows that the appointment 
was made within one year prior to the presentation of the bond.
    (3) For reissue, the legal representative must certify that each 
person in whose name reissue is requested is entitled to the extent 
specified and must certify that each person has consented to the 
reissue. If a person in whose name reissue is requested desires to name 
a coowner or beneficiary, the person must execute an additional request 
for reissue on the appropriate form.
    (b) After administration. If the estate of the decedent has been 
settled through judicial proceedings, the bond and interest and 
redemption checks will be paid, or the bond will be reissued, upon the 
request of the person shown to be entitled by the court order. The 
request must be supported by a certified copy of the legal 
representative's court-approved final account, the decree of 
distribution, or other pertinent court records. If two or more persons 
have an interest in the bond, they must enter into an agreement 
concerning the bond's disposition. If the person entitled desires to 
name a coowner or beneficiary, a separate request must be made on an 
appropriate form.
    (c) Special provisions for small amounts. Special procedures are 
available for establishing entitlement to, or effecting disposition of, 
savings bonds and interest and redemption checks if the aggregate face 
amount, excluding interest checks, does not exceed $1,000.



Sec. 315.72  Estate not administered.

    (a) Special State law provisions. A request for payment or reissue 
of a bond by the person who has qualified under State law to receive or 
distribute the assets of a decedent's estate will be accepted, provided 
evidence of the person's authority is submitted.
    (b) Agreement of persons entitled. If there is no legal 
representative for the estate of a decedent, the bonds will be paid to, 
or reissued in the name of, the persons entitled, pursuant to an 
agreement and request executed by all persons entitled to share in the 
decedent's personal estate. If the persons entitled to share in the 
decedent's personal estate include minors or incompetents, payment or 
reissue of the bonds must be made to them or in their names unless their 
interest in the bonds is otherwise protected.
    (c) Creditors. An institutional creditor of a deceased owner's 
estate is entitled to payment only to the extent of its claim.
    (d) Special provisions for payment of small amounts--survivors of 
the decedent. (1) If the face amount of the bond does not exceed $500 
and there is no legal representative of the deceased owner's estate, the 
bond will be paid upon the request of the person who paid the burial 
expenses and who has not been reimbursed.
    (2) If there is no legal representative of the estate of a decedent 
who died without a will, and the total face amount of bonds in the 
estate does not exceed $1,000 (face amount), the bonds may be paid to 
the decedent's survivors upon request in the following order of 
precedence:
    (i) Surviving spouse;
    (ii) If no surviving spouse, to the child or children of the 
decedent, and the descendants of deceased children by representation;
    (iii) If none of the above, to the parents of the decedent, or the 
survivor;
    (iv) If none of the above, to the brothers and sisters, and the 
descendants of deceased brothers or sisters by representation;
    (v) If none of the above, to other next-of-kin, as determined by the 
laws of the owner's domicile at death;
    (vi) If none of the above, to persons related to the decedent by 
marriage.

The payment pursuant to this subsection shall be made upon the request

[[Page 174]]

and agreement of the survivors to receive the redemption proceeds 
individually and for the account of any persons entitled. Interest 
checks held for the estate of a decedent will be distributed with the 
bonds.



                         Subpart M--Fiduciaries



Sec. 315.75  Payment or reissue during the existence of the fiduciary estate.

    (a) Payment or reissue before maturity--(1) Request from the 
fiduciary named in the registration. A request for reissue or payment 
prior to maturity must be signed by all of the fiduciaries unless by 
statute, decree of court, or the terms of the governing instrument, any 
lesser number may properly execute the request. If the fiduciaries named 
in the registration are still acting, no further evidence will be 
required. In other cases, evidence to support the request will be 
required, as specified:
    (i) Fiduciaries by title only. If the bond is registered only in the 
titles, without the names, of fiduciaries not acting as a board, 
satisfactory evidence of their incumbency must be furnished, except in 
the case of bonds registered in the title of public officers as 
trustees.
    (ii) Boards, committees, commissions, etc. If a bond is registered 
in the name of a governing body which is empowered to act as a unit, and 
which holds title to the property of a religious, educational, 
charitable or nonprofit organization or a public corporation, the 
request should be signed in the name of the body by an authorized 
person. Ordinarily, a signed and certified request will be accepted 
without further evidence.
    (iii) Corporate fiduciaries. If a bond is registered in the name of 
a public or private corporation or a governmental body as fiduciary, the 
request must be signed by an authorized officer in the name of the 
organization as fiduciary. Ordinarily, a signed and certified request 
will be accepted without further evidence.
    (2) Trustee of a common trust fund. A bond held by a financial 
institution in a fiduciary capacity may be reissued in the name of the 
institution as trustee of its common trust fund to the extent that 
participation in the common trust fund is authorized by law or 
regulation. The request for reissue should be executed by the 
institution and any cofiduciary.
    (3) Successor fiduciary. If the fiduciary in whose name the bond is 
registered has been replaced by another fiduciary, satisfactory evidence 
of successorship must be furnished.
    (b) Payment at or after final maturity. At or after final maturity, 
a request for payment signed by any one or more of the fiduciaries will 
be accepted. Payment will be made by check drawn as the bond is 
registered.



Sec. 315.76  Payment or reissue after termination of the fiduciary estate.

    A bond registered in the name or title of a fiduciary may be paid or 
reissued to the person who has become entitled by reason of the 
termination of a fiduciary estate. Requests for reissue made by a 
fiduciary pursuant to the termination of a fiduciary estate should be 
made on the appropriate form. Requests for payment or reissue by other 
than the fiduciary must be accompanied by evidence to show that the 
person has become entitled in accordance with applicable State law or 
otherwise. When two or more persons have become entitled, the request 
for payment or reissue must be signed by each of them.



Sec. 315.77  Exchanges by fiduciaries.

    Fiduciaries are authorized to request an exchange of bonds of one 
series for those of another, pursuant to any applicable Department of 
the Treasury offering. A living coowner or beneficiary named on the 
bonds submitted in exchange may be retained in the same capacity on the 
new bonds.

be in the form, for example, ``The Jones Coal Company, a corporation, by

Sec. 316.1  Offering of bonds.

    The Secretary of the Treasury offered for sale to the people of the 
United States, United States Savings Bonds of Series E, hereinafter 
generally referred to as ``Series E bonds'' or ``bonds''.
    This offer was terminated as of December 31, 1979, except that, as 
to bonds purchased under payroll savings plans and employee plans, the 
offer was terminated as of June 30, 1980.



Sec. 316.2  Description of bonds.

    (a) General. Series E bonds bear a facsimile of the signature of the 
Secretary of the Treasury and of the Seal of the Department of the 
Treasury. They were issued only in registered form and are 
nontransferable.
    (b) Denominations and prices. Series E bonds were issued on a 
discount basis. The denominations and issue prices were:

 
 
                       Denomination                          Issue price
 
$25.......................................................        $18.75
50........................................................         37.50
75........................................................         56.25
100.......................................................         75.00
200.......................................................        150.00
500.......................................................        375.00
1,000.....................................................        750.00
10,000....................................................      7,500.00
100,000\1\................................................     75,000.00
 
\1\ The $100,000 denomination was available only for purchase by
  trustees of employee savings and savings and vacation plans (see
  paragraph (b) of Sec.  316.5).

    (c) Inscription and issue. At the time of issue, the issuing agent:
    (1) Inscribed on the face of each bond the name, social security 
number and address of the owner, and the name of the beneficiary, if 
any, or the name, social security number and address of the first-named 
coowner and the name of the other coowner (the inscription of the social 
security number was required for bonds issued on or after January 1, 
1974);
    (2) Entered the issue date in the upper right-hand portion of the 
bond; and
    (3) Imprinted the agent's validation indicia in the lower right-hand 
portion to show the date the bond was actually inscribed. A bond was 
valid only if an authorized issuing agent received payment therefor and 
duly inscribed, dated and imprinted validation indicia on the bond.
    (d) Term. A Series E bond was dated as of the first day of the month 
in which payment of the purchase price was received by an agent 
authorized to issue the bonds. This date is the issue date. The bonds 
mature as shown in Sec. 316.8. The bond may not be called for redemption 
by the Secretary of the Treasury prior to maturity or the end of any 
extended maturity period (see paragraph (a) of Sec. 316.8). The bond may 
be redeemed at the owner's option at any time at fixed redemption 
values.
    (e) Investment yield (interest). The investment yield (interest) on 
Series E bonds is defined in paragraphs (c) and (d) of Sec. 316.8. 
Beginning in the third month from its issue date, a bond increased in 
redemption value on the first day of each month, up to and including the 
thirtieth month from issue date, so as to provide for such period an 
investment yield of no less than 4 percent per annum, compounded 
semiannually. Thereafter, its redemption value increases at the 
beginning of each successive half-year period. The interest is paid as 
part of the redemption value.

the Treasury, now or hereafter prescribed, governing United States

CFR part 315, also published as Department of the Treasury Circular No. 
530, current revision.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Copies may be obtained from any designated Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt, 200 Third Street, 
Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[57 FR 14276, Apr. 17, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 316.4  Registration.

    Series E bonds were permitted to be registered as set forth in 
subpart B of 31 CFR part 315, also published as Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 530, current revision.



Sec. 316.5  Limitation on holdings.

    (a) General limitation. The amount of Series E bonds, originally 
issued during any one calendar year, that could be held by any one 
person, computed in accordance with the governing regulations, ranged 
from $5,000 (face amount) to $20,000 (face amount), depending upon the 
issue date.
    (b) Special limitation for employee savings plans. A special 
limitation for employee savings plans was provided, which was $2,000 
(face amount) multiplied by the highest number of participants in any 
employee savings plan, as defined in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, 
at any time during the year in which the bonds were issued. The plan had 
to be established, as set forth below.
    (1) Definition of plan and conditions of eligibility. (i) The 
employee savings plan must have been established by the employer for the 
exclusive and irrevocable benefit of employees or their beneficiaries, 
afforded employees the means of making regular savings from their wages 
through payroll deduction, and provided for employer contributions to be 
added to such savings.
    (ii) The entire assets thereof must have been credited to the 
individual accounts of participating employees and the assets so 
credited could be distributed only to the employees or their 
beneficiaries, except as otherwise provided herein.
    (iii) Series E bonds were to be purchased only with assets credited 
to the accounts of participating employees and only if the amount taken 
from any account at any time for that purpose was equal to the purchase 
price of a bond or bonds in an authorized denomination or denominations, 
and shares therein were credited to the accounts of the individuals from 
whom the purchase price thereof was derived, in amounts corresponding 
with such shares. For example, if $37.50 credited to the account of John 
Jones was commingled with funds credited to the accounts of other 
employees to make a total of $7,500, with which a Series E bond in the 
denomination of $10,000 (face amount) was purchased in December 1978 and 
registered in the name and title of the trustee, the plan must have 
provided, in effect, that John Jones' account would be credited to show 
that he was the owner of a Series E bond in the denomination of $50 
(face amount) bearing the issue date of December 1, 1978.
    (iv) Each participating employee has an irrevocable right at any 
time to demand and receive from the trustee all assets credited to his 
or her account or the value thereof, if he or she so prefers, without 
regard to any condition other than the loss or suspension of the 
privilege of participating further in the plan. However, a plan was not 
deemed to be inconsistent herewith if it limited or modified the 
exercise of any such right by providing that the employer's contribution 
did not vest absolutely until the employee had made contributions under 
the plan in each of not more than 60 calendar months succeeding the 
month for which the employer's contribution was made.
    (v) Upon the death of an employee, his or her beneficiary has the 
absolute and unconditional right to demand and receive from the trustee 
all assets credited to the account of the employee, or the value 
thereof, if he or she so prefers.
    (vi) When settlement is made with an employee, or his or her 
beneficiary, with respect to any bond registered in the name and title 
of the trustee in

[[Page 179]]

which the employee has a share (see paragraphs (b)(1) (ii) and (iii) of 
this section), the bond must be submitted for redemption or reissue to 
the extent of such share. If an employee or his or her beneficiary is to 
receive distribution in kind, bonds bearing the same issue dates as 
those credited to the employee's account will be reissued in the name of 
the distributee to the extent to which he or she is entitled, in any 
authorized form of registration, upon the request and certification of 
the trustee, in accordance with the governing reguations.
    (2) Definitions of terms used in paragraph (b)--related provisions. 
(i) The term savings plan includes any regulations issued under the plan 
with regard to Series E bonds. A trustee desiring to purchase bonds in 
excess of the general limitation in any calendar year should have 
submitted to the Federal Reserve Bank of the district a copy of the 
plan, any such regulations, and the trust agreement, all certified to be 
true copies, in order to establish eligibility.
    (ii) The term assets means all funds, including the employee 
contributions and employer contributions and assets purchased therewith, 
as well as accretions thereto, such as dividends on stock, the increment 
in value on bonds and all other income; but, notwithstanding any other 
provision of this paragraph, the right to demand and receive all assets 
credited to the account of an employee shall not be construed to require 
the distribution of assets in kind when it would not be possible or 
practicable to make such distribution; for example, Series E bonds may 
not be reissued in unauthorized denominations, and fractional shares of 
stock are not readily distributable in kind.
    (iii) The term beneficiary means the person or persons, if any, 
designated by the employee in accordance with the terms of the plan to 
receive the benefits of the trust upon his or her death, or the estate 
of the employee, and the term distributee means the employee, or his or 
her beneficiary.



Sec. 316.6  Purchase of bonds.

    Series E bonds were purchased, as follows:
    (a) Over-the-counter for cash--(1) Bonds registered in names of 
natural persons in their own right only. At such incorporated banks, 
trust companies, and other agencies as had been duly qualified as 
issuing agents.
    (2) Bonds registered in names of trustees of employee savings plans. 
At such incorporated bank, trust company, or other agency, duly 
qualified as an issuing agent, provided the agent was trustee of an 
approved employee savings plan eligible for the special limitation in 
paragraph (b) of Sec. 316.5 and prior approval to issue the bonds was 
obtained from the Federal Reserve Bank of the agent's district.
    (3) Bonds registered in all authorized forms. At Federal Reserve 
Banks and Branches and at the Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 
20226.
    (b) On mail order. By mail upon application to any Federal Reserve 
Bank or Branch or to the Department of the Treasury, accompanied by a 
remittance to cover the issue price. Any form of exchange, including 
personal checks, was accepted, subject to collection. Checks or other 
forms of exchange were to be drawn to the order of the Federal Reserve 
Bank or the United States Treasury, as the case may be. Checks payable 
by endorsement were not acceptable. Any depositary qualified pursuant to 
the provisions of 31 CFR part 203, also published as Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 92, current revision, was permitted to make 
payment by credit for bonds applied for on behalf of its customers up to 
any amount for which it was qualified in excess of existing deposits, 
when so notified by the Federal Reserve Bank of its district.
    (c) Savings stamps. The sale of United States Savings Stamps was 
terminated effective June 30, 1970. However, outstanding stamps affixed 
in fully or partially completed albums could be used to purchase Series 
E bonds at banks or other financial institutions authorized to issue 
such bonds. Stamps may be redeemed at banks and other financial 
institutions, through designated Federal Reserve Banks and the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia.

Sec. 316.7  Delivery of bonds.

    Issuing agents were authorized to deliver Series E bonds either 
over-the-counter in person, or by mail at the risk and expense of the 
United States, to the address given by the purchaser, but only within 
the United States, its territories and possessions, and the Commonwealth 
of Puerto Rico. No mail deliveries elsewhere were made. If purchased by 
citizens of the United States temporarily residing abroad, the bonds 
were delivered to such address in the United States as the purchaser 
directed.



Sec. 316.8  Extended terms and yields for outstanding bonds.

    (a) General. The terms extended maturity period, second extended 
maturity period, third extended maturity period and fourth extended 
maturity period, when used herein, refer to periods of 10 years or less 
after the original maturity dates during which owners may retain their 
bonds and continue to earn interest. No special action is required to 
take advantage of any extensions heretofore or herein granted. Series E 
bonds cease to accrue interest upon reaching final maturity.
    (b) Extended maturity periods--(1) Bonds issued from May 1, 1941

  have matured and are no longer earning interest.

    (iv) For Series E bonds entering extended maturity periods on or 
after March 1, 1993, the guaranteed minimum yield is 4 percent per 
annum, compounded semiannually, or the guaranteed minimum investment 
yield in effect at the beginning of the period, including bonds that

    (2) Eleven-year bonus. If a bond bearing an issue date of January 1, 
1951, or thereafter, was held for the 11-year period from the first 
semianual interest accrual period that began on or after January 1, 
1980, its guaranteed minimum investment yield for such period was 
increased by one-half of one percent per annum, compounded semiannually.
    (d) Market-based variable investment yield. In order to be eligible 
for the market-based variable investment yield, Series E savings bonds 
had to be held at least five years beginning with the first semiannual 
interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982. The 
market-based variable investment yield shall be determined by the 
Secretary of the Treasury as follows:
    (1) For each 6-month period, starting with the period beginning May 
1, 1982, the average market yield on outstanding marketable Treasury 
securities with a remaining term to maturity of approximately 5 years 
during such period is determined. Such determination by the Secretary of 
the Treasury or his or her delegate shall be final and conclusive.

[[Page 182]]

    (2) For bonds which entered an extended maturity period prior to May 
1, 1989, the market-based variable investment yield from the first 
semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982 
to each semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 
1, 1987, will be 85 percent, rounded to the nearest one-fourth of one 
percent, of the arithmetic average of the market yield averages, as 
determined in accordance with paragraph (d)(1) of this section, for the 
appropriate number of 6-month periods involved, starting with the period 
beginning May 1, 1982.
    (3) For bonds which entered an extended maturity period on or after 
May 1, 1989, the market-based variable investment yield from the first 
semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982 
to each semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 
1, 1989, will be 85 pecent, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one 
percent, of the arithmetic average of the market yield averages, as 
determined in accordance with paragraph (d)(1) of this section, for the 
appropriate number of 6-month periods involved, starting with the period 
beginning May 1, 1982.
    (e) Determination of redemption values during any extended maturity 
period. The redemption value of a bond on a given interest accrual date 
during any extended maturity period will be the higher of the value 
produced by using the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield or 
the value produced by using the appropriate market-based variable 
investment yield. The calculation of these values is described below:
    (1) Guaranteed minimum investment yield and resulting values during 
an extended maturity period. A bond has a guaranteed minimum investment 
yield for each of its extended maturity periods. The applicable 
guaranteed minimum investment yields for the current extended maturity 
period and any subsequent periods are specified in paragraph (c) of this 
section. In order to determine the value of a bond during an extended 
maturity period, the value of the bond either at the end of the next 
preceding maturity period or when the guaranteed minimum investment 
yield last increased,\8\ whichever occurs later, is determined using the 
applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield. This value is then used 
as the base upon which interest accrues during the extended maturity 
period at the guaranteed minimum investment yield in effect for savings 
bonds at the beginning of that period. The resulting semiannual values 
are then compared with the corresponding values determined by using the 
applicable market-based variable investment yields.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The 11-year bonus was the last increase in the guaranteed 
minimum investment yield (see paragraph (b)(2)). Series E bonds which 
were eligible to receive this bonus received it on the first semiannual 
interest accrual date occuring on or after January 1, 1991.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) Market-based variable investment yield and resulting values 
during an extended maturity period. The market-based variable investment 
yield from the first semiannual interest accrual date occuring on or 
after November 1, 1982 to each semiannual interest accrual date 
occurring on or after November 1, 1987, is determined as specified in 
paragraph (d) of this section. The value of a bond on its first 
seimannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982 
is used as the base upon which interest accrues during an extended 
maturity period at the applicable market-based variable investment 
yield. If redeemed, the bond will receive the higher of the two values 
produced by using the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield and 
the applicable market-based variable investment yield.
    (f) Market-based variable investment yields and tables of redemption 
values. The market-based variable investment yields for bonds redeemed 
during each 6-month period, beginning on May 1 and November 1 of each 
year, are made available prior to each of those dates by the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia 26106-1328, accompanied by 
tables of the redemption values of bonds for the following 6 months, 
based on either the applicable market-based variable investment yields 
or guaranteed minimum investment yields.

Sec. 316.9  Taxation.

    (a) General. For the purpose of determining taxes and tax 
exemptions, the increment in value represented by the difference between 
the price paid for Series E bonds and the redemption value received 
therefor constitutes interest. Such interest is subject to all taxes 
imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The bonds 
are subject to estate, inheritance, gift, or other excise taxes, whether 
Federal or State, but are exempt from all other taxation now or 
hereafter imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any State, or 
any of the possesions of the United States, or by any local taxing 
authority.
    (b) Federal income tax on bonds. An owner of Series E bonds who is a 
cash-basis taxpayer may use either of the following two methods of 
reporting the increase in the redemption value of the bonds for Federal 
income tax purposes:
    (1) Defer reporting the increase to the year of final maturity, 
actual redemption, or other disposition, whichever is earlier; or
    (2) Elect to report the increases each year as they accrue, in which 
case the election applies to all Series E bonds then owned and those 
subsequently acquired, as well as to any other similar obligations 
purchased on a discount basis. If the method in paragraph (b)(1) of this 
section is used, the taxpayer may change to the method in paragraph 
(b)(2) of this section without obtaining permission from the Internal 
Revenue Service. However, once the election to use the method in 
paragraph (b)(2) of this section is made, the taxpayer may not change 
the method of reporting without permission from the Internal Revenue 
Service. For further information on Federal income taxes, the Service 
Center Director, or District Director, Internal Revenue Service, of the 
taxpayer's district may be contacted.



Sec. 316.10  Payment or redemption.

    (a) General. A Series E bond may be redeemed in accordance with its 
terms at the appropriate redemption value shown in the applicable table 
described in paragraph (f) of Sec. 316.8. The redemption values of bonds 
in the denomination of $100,000 are not shown in the tables. However, 
the redemption value of a bond in that denomination will be equal to ten 
times the redemption value of a $10,000 bond of the same issue date. A 
bond in a denomination higher that $25 (face amount) may be redeemed in 
part but only in the amount of an authorized denomination or multiple 
thereof.
    (b) Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and United States Treasury. 
Owners of Series E bonds may obtain payment upon presentation and 
surrender of the bonds to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch referred to 
in Sec. 316.12 or to the Department of the Treasury with the request for 
payment on the bonds duly executed and certified in accordance with the 
governing regulations.
    (c) Incorporated banks, savings and loan associations and other 
financial institutions. (1) A financial institution qualified as a 
paying agent under the provisions of 31 CFR part 321, also published as 
Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 750, as 
revised, will pay the current redemption value of a Series E bond 
presented for payment by an individual whose name is inscribed on the 
bond as owner or coowner, provided:
    (i) The bond is in order for payment; and
    (ii) The presenter establishes his or her identity to the 
satisfaction of the agent, in accordance with Treasury instructions and 
identification guidelines, and signs and completes the requests for 
payment.
    (2) A paying agent may (but is not required to) pay a Series E bond, 
at current redemption value, upon the request of a legal representative 
designated in the bond's registration by name and capacity, a court-
appointed legal representative of the last-deceased registrant's estate, 
or a beneficiary, if he or she survives the owner, provided:
    (i) The bond is in order for payment; and
    (ii) The presenter establishes his or her identity to the 
satisfaction of the agent, in accordance with Treasury instructions, 
indentification guidelines,

[[Page 184]]

and otherwise complies with evidentiary requirements.
[57 FR 14276, Apr. 17, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 10535, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 316.11  Reservation as to issue of bonds.

    The Secretary of the Treasury reserved the right to reject any 
application for purchase of Series E bonds, in whole or in part, and to 
refuse to issue, or permit to be issued hereunder, any such bonds in any 
case or any class or classes of cases if such action was deemed to be in 
the public interest. Any action in any such respect was final.



Sec. 316.12  Fiscal agents.

    (a) Federal Reserve Banks and Branches referred to below, as fiscal 
agents of the United States, are authorized to perform such services as 
may be requested of them by the Secretary of the Treasury in connection 
with the redemption and payment of Series E bonds.
    (b)(1) The following Federal Reserve Offices have been designated to

Sec. 317.0  Purpose and effective date.

    The regulations in this part govern the manner in which an 
organization may qualify and act as an agent for the sale and issue of 
Series EE United States Savings Bonds.

[[Page 185]]

    (b) Federal Reserve Bank refers to the Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch providing savings bond services to the district in which the 
issuing agent or the applicant organization is located. See Sec. 317.9 
(a).
    (c) Issuing agent refers to an organization that has been granted a 
certificate of qualification by a designated Federal Reserve Bank to 
sell savings bonds. The definition encompasses (1) each organization 
that accepts and processes purchase orders for bonds sold over-the-
counter, but does not inscribe bonds, and (2) each organization that is 
authorized to inscribe bonds sold over-the-counter or through payroll 
savings plans.
    (d) Offering circular refers to Department of the Treasury Circular, 
Public Debt Series No. 1-80, current revision.
    (e) Organization means an entity, as described in Sec. 317.2, which

Sec. 317.2  Organizations authorized to act.

    Organizations eligible to apply for qualification and serve as 
savings bond issuing agents include:
    (a) Banks, Federal credit unions in good standing, trust companies, 
and savings institutions chartered by or incorporated under the laws of 
the United States, or those of any State or Territory of the United 
States, the District of Columbia, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
    (b) Agencies of the United States and of State and local 
governments; and
    (c) Employers operating payroll savings plans for the purchase of 
United States Savings Bonds.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 57 FR 34684, Aug. 6, 1992]



Sec. 317.3  Procedure for qualifying and serving as issuing agent.

    (a) Execution of application agreement. The applicant-organization 
shall obtain from, duly execute, and file with, a designated Federal 
Reserve Bank, an application-agreement form.
    (1) The terms of each application agreement shall include the 
provisions prescribed by section 202 of Executive Order No. 11246, 
entitled ``Equal Employment Opportunity'' (3 CFR, subchapter B, 42 
U.S.C. 2000e note).
    (2) The provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 
552a), and regulations issued pursuant thereto (31 CFR part 1, subpart

    (b) Certificate of qualification. Upon approval of an application-
agreement, the designated Federal Reserve Bank will issue a certificate 
of qualification to the organization. Until the receipt of such a 
certificate, an organization shall not perform any act as an issuing 
agent, or advertise in any manner that it is authorized to so act or 
that it has applied for qualification as an issuing agent. After receipt 
of a certificate of qualification, an organization may perform the 
functions of an issuing agent. Under the terms of the application-
agreement, the proceeds of the sale of bonds are at all times the 
property of the United States for which the organization shall be fully 
accountable.
    (c) Adverse action or change in qualification. An organization will 
be notified by the designated Federal Reserve Bank if its application-
agreement to act as issuing agent is not approved, or if, after 
issuance, its certificate of qualification is terminated.
[54 FR 40830, Oct. 3, 1989, as amended at 59 FR 10535, 10536, Mar. 4, 
1994]



Sec. 317.4  Issuing agents currently qualified.

    Each organization, qualified as an issuing agent under a trust 
agreement currently in effect, is authorized to continue to act in that 
capacity without requalification. By so acting, it shall be subject to 
the terms and conditions of the previously executed application-
agreement and these regulations in the same manner and to the same 
extent as though it had requalified hereunder.



Sec. 317.5  Termination of qualification.

    (a) By the United States. The Secretary of the Treasury or a 
delegate may terminate the qualification of an issuing agent at any 
time, upon due notice to the agent. If this action is taken, the agent 
will be required to make a final accounting for the balance of savings 
bond stock for which it is charged, based on the records of the 
designated Federal Reserve Bank. The

[[Page 186]]

agent must surrender all unissued bonds and remit the issue price of any 
remaining bonds included in its accountability.
    (b) At request of issuing agent. A designated Federal Reserve Bank 
will terminate the qualification of an issuing agent upon its request, 
provided the agent is in full compliance with the terms of its agreement 
and the applicable regulations and instructions, and renders a final 
accounting.
[54 FR 40830, Oct. 3, 1989, as amended at 59 FR 10536, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 317.6  Issuance of bonds.

    (a) General. Each issuing agent shall comply with all regulations 
and instructions issued by the Department of the Treasury directly, or 
through the designated Federal Reserve Bank, concerning the sale, 
inscription, dating, and validation of bonds; the acceptance, 
processing, and transmittal of over-the-counter purchase orders; the 
remittance of sales proceeds; and the disposition of paper and 
electronic registration records. No issuing agent shall have authority 
to sell bonds other than as provided in the offering circular.
    (b) Fees. Each issuing agent, other than a Federal agency, will be 
paid a fee for each savings bond transaction. Fee payments for bonds 
issued through payroll savings plans, and by agents authorized to 
inscribe bonds sold over-the-counter, will be based on the number of 
individual issues transmitted to a designated Federal Reserve Bank. With 
prior approval, agents that are authorized to inscribe bonds and receive 
fee payments will also be paid a bonus for presorting savings bond 
mailings. Fee payments for over-the-counter sales, where the agent is 
not authorized to inscribe the bonds, will be based on the number of 
purchase orders forwarded to a designated Federal Reserve Bank. 
Schedules reflecting the amount of the fees and presort bonuses, and the 
basis on which they are computed and paid, will be published separately 
in the Federal Register.
    (c) No charge to customers. Any issuing agent that accepts fees from 
the Department of the Treasury for selling savings bonds, and/or 
accepting over-the-counter purchase orders, shall not make any charge to 
customers for the same service.

Sec. 317.7  Obtaining and accounting for bond stock.

    An issuing agent that is authorized to inscribe bonds sold over-the-
counter or through payroll savings plans may obtain bond stock from the 
designated Federal Reserve Bank. The bond stock is, at all times, the 
property of the United States. The organization shall be fully 
accountable for the bond stock consigned to it in accordance with all 
regulations and instructions issued by the Department of the Treasury.

Sec. 317.8  Remittance of sales proceeds and registration records.

    An issuing agent shall account for and remit bond sales proceeds and 
registration records promptly in accordance with regulations and 
instructions issued by the Department of the Treasury, either directly 
or through the designated Federal Reserve Banks. Failure to comply with 
these instructions may subject an agent to penalties, including 
termination of its qualification as an issuing agent.

 Appendix to Sec. 317.8--Remittance of Sales Proceeds and Registration 
 Records, Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 4-
  67, Second Revision (31 CFR Part 317) Fiscal Service, Bureau of the 
                               Public Debt

                     Subpart A--General Information

    1. Purpose. This appendix is issued for the guidance of 
organizations qualified as issuing agents of Series EE United States 
Savings Bonds under the provisions of Department of the Treasury 
Circular, Public Debt Series No. 4-67, current revision. Its purpose is 
to supplement the provisions of Sec. 317.8 of the Circular relating to 
the remittance of savings bond sales proceeds and registration records, 
including the interest charge to be collected for late remittances.
    2. Definition of terms. As used in this appendix:
    (a) Issue Date is the date as of which a bond begins to earn 
interest. It is the date entered

[[Page 187]]

by the issuing agent in the upper right corner of the bond.
    (b) Validation Date is the date as of which a bond is actually 
inscribed for issue. It is entered by the issuing agent immediately 
below the ``Issue Date'' in the area marked ``Issuing Agent's Dating 
Stamp''.
    (c) Over-the-counter sale includes all sales of savings bonds (i) on 
the basis of individual purchase applications received over-the-counter 
or by mail, and (ii) on Bond-a-Month plans.
    (d) Payroll sale includes all issues of savings bonds paid for with 
deductions withheld from the pay of employees of organizations which 
maintain (i) payroll savings plans or (ii) thrift, savings, vacation, or 
similar plans.
    (e) Issuing agent, as provided in Sec. 317.1(c) of the Circular, 
refers to an organization which has been granted a certificate of 
qualification by a designated Federal Reserve Bank to accept over-the-
counter purchase orders for, or, heretofore, to sell and issue savings 
bonds.
    (f) Immediately available funds are remittances of funds which are 
available for the use by the Department of the Treasury immediately upon 
receipt by the Department or its fiscal agents, and include, but are not 
limited to:
    (1) A change to the remitter's (or a correspondent depository 
institution's) reserve account with a Federal Reserve Bank;
    (2) A Federal funds check;
    (3) A United States Government check; or
    (4) A postal money order.
    (g) Financial institutions refers to banks, trust companies, credit 
unions, and savings institutions chartered by or incorporated under the 
laws of the United States, or those of any State or Territory of the 
United States, the District of Columbia, or the Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico.
    (h) Nonfinancial institutions refers to any issuing agent not 
described under paragraph (g) of this appendix.
    3. Determination of issue date. The obligation of the United States 
to pay interest on a savings bond is determined by its issue date. That 
date is the first day of the month in which a qualified issuing agent 
receives or accumulates the full purchase price of the bond. In the case 
of a bond purchased under a payroll savings plan operated by an 
organization which is not an issuing agent, the issue date should be 
fixed as of the month in which the organization accumulates the full 
purchase price of the bond. Such funds must, however, be remitted to the 
issuing agent in time to permit such dating.
    4. Forms of remittance. Issuing agents shall remit sales proceeds in 
timely fashion as follows:
    (a) Issuing agents which are financial institutions must remit in 
immediately available funds.
    (b) Issuing agents which are nonfinancial institutions should remit 
in immediately available funds.
    (c) The Commissioner of the Public Debt, as designee of the 
Secretary of the Treasury, may waive or modify this provision. The 
Commissioner may do so in any particular case or class of cases for the 
convenience of the United States or in order to relieve any agent or 
agents of unusual hardship:
    (1) If such action would not be inconsistent with law or equity,
    (2) If it does not impair any existing rights, and
    (3) If the Commissioner is satisfied that such action would not 
subject the United States to any substantial expense or liability.
    5. Remittance date. Sales proceeds should be remitted on the date 
shown on the transmittal document, i.e., PD F 3252-OC or PD F 5255-RDS 
for over-the-counter sales or PD F 4848 for payroll sales. If there is a 
significant time difference between the date on the transmittal document 
and the date of receipt in the designated Federal Reserve Bank, the 
transmittal date may be determined, for purposes of this appendix, by 
the postmark, if the remittance is mailed, or the receipt date, if the 
remittance is forwarded by courier, messenger, or similar means.

                    Subpart B--Over-the-Counter Sales

    1. Regional Delivery (RDS) participants. An agent participating in 
the Regional Delivery System (RDS) is authorized to sell bonds over-the-
counter. It will accept and review customer purchase orders, but it will 
not inscribe the bonds. Purchase order information will be forwarded to 
a designated Federal Reserve Bank for inscription of the bonds. An 
authorized RDS participant shall remit sales proceeds and purchase 
orders (on paper or in an electronically processible format) to a 
designated Federal Reserve Bank within five (5) business days of receipt 
from the customer.
    2. Issues-on-Tape Program participants. An agent that has been 
authorized by the Bureau of the Public Debt to inscribe bonds sold over-
the-counter and report such sales on magnetic tape shall remit sales 
proceeds and electronic issue records no less often than once a week on 
a schedule established by the designated Federal Reserve Bank.
    3. Agents not participating in RDS. An agent that has not been 
authorized to participate in RDS by a designated Federal Reserve Bank 
shall remit sales proceeds and paper registration records, as directed 
by the Federal Reserve Bank, in accordance with one of the schedules set 
forth below, based on a periodic determination by the Bureau of the 
Public Debt of the average monthly over-the-counter sales remitted by 
the agent.

[[Page 188]]

    (a) Agents with average monthly sales of less than $5,000. Each 
agent with average monthly over-the-counter sales of less than $5,000 
(issue price) shall remit the proceeds of such sales no less often than 
once each month on a schedule established by the designated Federal 
Reserve Bank. The agent will be allowed two (2) business days to prepare 
the remittance; sales during those two (2) business days may be included 
in the following month's remittance. If an agent accumulates monthly 
over-the-counter sales of $5,000 (issue price) or more prior to its 
scheduled remittance date, those sales proceeds shall be remitted within 
two (2) business days; the agent will also report on its normal 
reporting date.
    (b) Agents with average monthly sales of $5,000 or more. Each agent 
with average monthly over-the-counter sales of $5,000 (issue price) or 
more shall remit the proceeds of such sales no less often than once a 
week on a schedule established by the designated Federal Reserve Bank. 
The agent will be allowed two (2) business days to prepare the 
remittance; sales during those two (2) business days may be included in 
the following week's remittance. At the end of each calendar month, the 
agent shall remit within two (2) business days all remaining sales made 
during that calendar month, even though the last business day of the 
month may not coincide with the established reporting date.

             Subpart C--Remittance of Payroll Sales Proceeds

    1. Application of requirements. The remittance requirements on 
payroll sales apply to the agent that issues the bonds. That agent may 
be either (a) an employer organization that maintains a payroll savings 
plan, or (b) a financial institution that services an employer 
organization. An organization that maintains a payroll savings plan but 
does not issue bonds should be notified by the servicing issuing agent 
that it must remit sales proceeds to the agent in sufficient time to 
permit compliance with the requirements.
    2. Remittance of payroll sales deductions. Payroll agents shall 
remit sales proceeds throughout the month shown in the issue date as 
soon as the full amount of the purchase price of the bonds has been 
received or accumulated. In no case should such proceeds be remitted 
later than the second business day of the month following the month 
shown in the issue date. The agent shall ensure that its system properly 
accounts for and recognizes when the full purchase price is received, or 
is accumulated, so that timely remittance is made. The agent shall 
transmit registration records, on paper or on magnetic tape, within 
thirty (30) days following the month shown on the issue date.

                 Subpart D--Interest on Late Remittances

    1. Rate of Interest. Interest will be assessed for each day's delay 
in the remittance of sales proceeds, based on the actual date of 
remittance. The rate of interest to be used will be the current value of 
funds to the Department of the Treasury, as set forth each quarter in 
the Treasury Fiscal Requirements Manual. The rate applied will be that 
in effect during the entire period in which the remittance is late. The 
interest assessment will be collected by the designated Federal Reserve 
Bank.
    2. Waiver. Interest will be waived in the situations described below 
as well as in any specific case where, in the judgment of the 
Commissioner of the Public Debt, the circumstances warrant such action. 
The Commissioner's decision on any waiver action shall be final.
    (a) Bonds inscribed by issuing agent.--(i) Payroll or book-entry 
issues. If, during any three (3) month period, the interest assessed on 
an agent's late remittance of payroll or book entry sales proceeds 
accumulates to less than $50 for each type of sales, the interest 
assessed for the first month will be waived. The interest assessed for 
each type of sales for the remaining two (2) months will then be carried 
forward to the next period of three (3) consecutive months.
    (ii) Over-the-counter issues. The interest assessed on an agent's 
late remittance of over-the-counter sales proceeds transmitted during a 
given month will be waived if it is less than $50.
    (b) Bonds inscribed by the designated Federal Reserve Bank. The 
interest assessed on late remittance of over-the-counter sales proceeds 
transmitted by a financial institution's parent and branch offices 
during a given month will be waived if it is less than $25. The interest 
assessed on late remittances of payroll or book-entry sales proceeds 
transmitted by a financial institution or employer during a given month 
will be waived if it is less than $25.
    (c) Suspension of waiver. The Commissioner may suspend the 
application of the waiver in the case of any agent that consistently 
fails to meet the remittance requirements.

directly to the Bank, using its own ABA code, it is the presenting 
institution. If a correspondent financial institution submits cash 
letters on behalf of another institution using the correspondent's ABA 
code, the correspondent is the presenting institution.
    (l) Redemption and payment are used interchangeably for payment of a 
security in accordance with the terms of its offering and governing 
regulations, including redemption-exchange.
    (m) Redemption-exchange means the authorized redemption of eligible 
securities for the purpose of applying the proceeds in payment for other 
securities offered in exchange by the Treasury.
    (n) Registrant means a person whose name is inscribed on a security 
as owner, coowner, or beneficiary.
    (o) Security means a United States Savings Bond of Series A, B, C, 
D, E, or EE and/or a United States Savings Note (Freedom Share).
    (p) Separately sorted cash letter refers to a bundle of redeemed 
securities that have been segregated from all other items prior to 
transmittal to a Federal Reserve Bank via EZ CLEAR.
    (q) Taxpayer identifying number means a social security account 
number or an employer identification number.

prior written notice of such action to the agent.
    (b) At request of paying agent. A Federal Reserve Bank referred to 
in Sec. 321.25 will terminate the qualification of a paying agent upon 
its written request, provided the agent renders a final accounting for 
all redeemed securities and is found to have fully complied with the 
terms of its agreement and the applicable regulations and instructions.
    (c) Reservation. Termination of the qualification as paying agent of 
any institution shall not prejudice the right of the Treasury to recover 
the amounts of any erroneous payment(s) made by the institution.

Sec. 321.6  General.

    Securities are issued only in registered form, are not transferable, 
may not be hypothecated or used as collateral for a loan, and, except as 
otherwise specifically provided in the governing regulations and this 
part, are payable to the owner or coowner named on the security. The 
regulations governing Series EE and HH bonds are contained in Department 
of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 3-80, current revision 
(31 CFR part 353); those governing all other series of sercurities are 
contained in Department of the Treasury Circular No. 530, current 
revision (31 CFR part 315).



Sec. 321.7  Authorized cash payments.

    (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions appearing on the 
securities, the governing regulations, and the provisions of this part, 
and any instructions issued in connection therewith, an agent may make 
payment of savings bonds of Series A, B, C, D, E, and EE, and savings 
notes, presented for cash redemption. Except as provided in paragraph 
(b) through (d) of this section, the securities must be presented by an 
individual whose name is inscribed on the securities as owner or 
coowner, and who is known to the agent, or who can establish his or her 
identity in accordance with Treasury instructions and guidelines. (See 
Sec. 321.11(b)(1)).

[[Page 193]]

    (b) Change of name by marriage. If the name of the presenter has 
been changed by marriage from that shown on the security, and the agent 
knows or establishes that the presenter and the person whose name 
appears on the security are one and the same individual, the agent may 
pay the security in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section. The 
signature to the request for payment should show both names, e.g., 
``Mary J. Smith, changed by marriage from Mary T. Jones.''
    (c) Parent of a minor. Payment of a security bearing the name of a 
minor child, who is not of sufficient competency and understanding to 
sign the request for payment and comprehend the nature of the act, may 
be made to either parent with whom the minor resides or to whom custody 
has been granted, provided the form of registration does not indicate 
that a guardian or similar representative of the estate of the minor has 
been appointed or is otherwise legally qualified. Payment under this 
subsection may not be made to any person other than a parent. The parent 
requesting payment must sign the request for payment in the form, e.g., 
``John A. Jones, on behalf of John C. Jones.'' The following endorsement 
must be typed or imprinted on the back of the security:

    I certify that I am the (father or mother) of John C. Jones and the 
person (with whom he resides) (to whom custody has been granted). He is 
---- years of age and is not of sufficient competency and understanding 
to sign the request.

    (d) Payment to beneficiary. An agent may redeem a security 
registered ``A P.O.D. [payable on death to] B'' for cash at the request 
of the surviving beneficiary following the owner's death. A copy of the 
owner's death certificate, certified under seal of the State or local 
registrar, must be furnished to support the request for payment.
    (e) Payment to a legal representative designated on a security by 
name and title. An agent may redeem a security registered in the name 
and title of a legal representative as defined in Sec. 321.1(f), if the 
legal representative is known to the agent, or can establish identity in 
accordance with Treasury instructions and guidelines. The request for 
payment on the back of each security must be signed by the legal 
representative designated by name and title in the registration on the 
front of the security, or by a person authorized or empowered to act for 
a corporate legal representative so designated. The full title of the 
legal representative should be shown adjacent to each signature and, in 
the case of a corporate legal representative, the full corporate name, 
as well as the title, i.e., vice president, trust officer, etc., should 
be shown. Examples:

    Henry C. Smith, conservator of the estate of John R. White, an 
adult, pursuant to Sec. 633.572 of the Iowa Code.
    Tenth National Bank by Arnold A. Ames, Vice President, guardian of 
the estate of Barry B. Bryan, a minor.

    (f) Payment to a legal representative of a decedent's estate not 
designated on a security. An agent may redeem a security bearing the 
names of deceased persons in the registration, if the legal 
representative of the estate of the last deceased registrant:
    (1) Presents the security;
    (2) Signs the request for payment on the back of the security, 
showing the representative's full title adjacent to the signature; and
    (3) Presents acceptable evidence of the legal representative's 
appointment and of the dates of death of all persons named in the 
security's registration, in accordance with this part and the appendix.

In the case of a corporate legal representative, the full corporate 
name, as well as the title, must be shown. Examples:

    John H. Smith and Charles N. Jones, co-executors of the will of 
Robert J. Smith, deceased.
    Tenth National Bank by John F. Green, Trust Officer, executor of the 
will of George N. Brown, deceased.

    (g) Interest reporting. A paying agent is required to report 
interest in the amount of $10 or more, paid as part of the redemption 
value of securities, to the payee and to the Internal Revenue Service, 
in accordance with 26 CFR 1.6049-4. (See Item 26 of the appendix to this 
part for information about excluding interest from income in connection 
with the education feature of Series EE

[[Page 194]]

savings bonds issued on or after January 1, 1990.)

Sec. 321.8  Redemption-exchange of Series E and EE savings bonds and savings notes.

    (a) General. Subject to the provisions of Circular No. 2-80 (31 CFR 
part 352), the governing regulations, and the provisions of this part 
and its appendix, an agent may make payment of eligible securities 
presented for redemption in exchange for Series HH bonds. Securities 
eligible for exchange are:
    (1) Series EE bonds presented no earlier than six months from their 
issue dates; and
    (2) Series E bonds and savings notes presented no later than one 
year from the month in which they reached final maturity. The total 
redemption value of the securities presented for exchange must be at 
least $500.
    (b) Requirements for redemption-exchange. An agent shall not accept 
and redeem eligible securities on exchange unless:
    (1) The securities are accompanied by a completed exchange 
subscription signed by the presenter;
    (2) The presenter is the owner, the legal representative (excluding 
a representative of a decedent's estate), the surviving coowner or 
beneficiary, or the principal coowner (as defined in Sec. 352.7(e)(2) in 
31 CFR part 352 (Circular No. 2-80)) of the securities presented for 
exchange and is to be named as owner or first-named coowner on the 
Series HH bonds; and
    (3) The request for payment on each security is signed by the 
presenter. A presenter who is a legal representative should show the 
full title adjacent to each signature and, in the case of a corporate 
legal representative, should show the full corporate name, as well as 
the title. If the name of the presenter has been changed by marriage, or 
if the presenter is named as beneficiary or legal representative on the 
securities, the agent may process the transaction in accordance with the 
provisions of Sec. 321.7 (b), (d), or (e) of this part. If the agent is 
authorized and elects to use the special endorsement procedure, set out 
in 31 CFR part 330 (Circular No. 888, current revision), the requests 
for payment do not need to be signed; however, this special endorsement 
may not be used in lieu of the presenter's signature on the exchange 
subscription.
    (c) Interest reporting. To the extent that it represents interest of 
$10 or more, a paying agent is required to report cash, refunded in an 
exchange transaction, to the presenter and to the Internal Revenue 
Service under the provisions of 26 CFR 1.6049-4.
    (d) Completion of transaction. An agent shall transmit for 
settlement via EZ CLEAR securities redeemed on exchange and, at the same 
time, forward the exchange application (PD F 3253) and any additional 
cash needed to complete the transaction, to the Fiscal Agency Department 
of the servicing Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25. 
Securities redeemed on exchange may be commingled with cash redemptions 
in mixed or separately sorted cash letters.''

59 FR 10537, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 321.9  Specific limitations on payment authority.

    (d) If the agent does not know or cannot establish the identity of 
the presenter as a person entitled to request payment as provided in 
Sec. 321.7.
    (e) If the presenter does not sign his or her name in ink as it is

illegible, incomplete or unauthorized inscription, issue date, or 
issuing agent's validating data, or if any essential part of the 
security appears to have been altered or is mutilated or defaced in such 
a manner as to create doubt or arouse suspicion.
    (h) If the security is registered in the name of a corporation, 
association, partnership, or other organization in its own right.
    (i) If Treasury regulations require the submission of documentary 
evidence to support the redemption, except as provided in Sec. 321.7 (d) 
or (f) of this part, as in the case of incompetents, minors under legal 
guardianship, or the change of a registrant's name other than by 
marriage.
    (j) If the presenter is a minor who, in the opinion of the agent, is 
not of sufficient competency and understanding to sign the request for 
payment and comprehend the nature of the act.
    (k) If it is known to the agent that the presenter has been legally 
declared incompetent to manage his or her affairs.
    (l) If partial redemption is requested.

Sec. 321.10  Responsibilities of paying agents.

    (a) Payment of securities. A paying agent is required to redeem 
eligible securities during its regular business hours for any presenter, 
whether or not a customer, who can establish his or her identity as the 
owner or co-owner named on the securities, in accordance with the 
provisions of this part, and the appendix to this part, and the Treasury 
Identification Guide for Cashing United States Savings Bonds. An agent 
is encouraged, but is not required, to redeem eligible securities during 
its regular business hours for a surviving beneficiary, a legal 
representative designated in the registration of securities presented, 
or a legal representative of the last deceased registrant's estate who 
can provide acceptable evidence (see Sec. 321.7 (d) or (f)) and 
establish identity in accordance with this part.
    (b) Restrictions. A paying agent shall not advance money, make loans 
on, or discount the redemption value of securities, nor in any manner 
assist others to do so. An agent shall not pay a presenter the current 
value of a security and then defer presentation to the Treasury for the 
purpose of obtaining for its own profit an increased value.
[53 FR 37511, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 55 FR 35396, Aug. 29, 1990]



            Subpart D--Payment and Transmittal of Securities



Sec. 321.11  Payment.

    (a) Examination. Before making a payment of a security, a paying 
agent shall examine the security to determine that it is eligible for 
redemption and is one the agent is authorized to pay under the 
provisions of this part.
    (b) Identification and evidence of entitlement. The agent shall 
determine that the presenter of the security is entitled to request 
payment, as provided in Sec. 321.7 of this part. Unless the presenter is 
a person whose identity is well-known to the agent or is an established 
customer, he or she should be asked to furnish satisfactory 
identification in accordance with the Treasury instructions and 
guidelines. At the time of payment, the agent should make a notation on 
the back of the security, or in its own records, specifying precisely 
what was relied on to establish the presenter's identity.
    (c) Evidence--Payment to a beneficiary. The agent shall determine 
that the presenter of the security as beneficiary is entitled to request 
payment, as provided in Sec. 321.7(d). In addition to establishing the 
presenter's identification, as required by paragraph (b) of this 
section, the agent shall require presentation of the owner's death 
certificate in accordance with this part and the appendix.
    (d) Evidence--Payment to a legal representative of the last deceased 
registrant's estate. The agent shall determine whether the legal 
representative is entitled to request payment, as provided in 
Sec. 321.7(f). In addition to establishing the presenter's 
identification, as required by paragraph (b) of this section, the agent 
shall require evidence

[[Page 196]]

of appointment as well as evidence of the dates of death of all persons 
named in the registrations of the securities presented. Evidence of the 
representative's appointment must be either a court certificate or a 
copy of the letters of appointment, certified to be true and correct 
under seal of the court or clerk of court. If the original appointment 
was made more than one year prior to the presentation of the securities 
it must also bear the court clerk's statement that the appointment is in 
full force and effect. This statement must be under seal of the court or 
clerk of court and dated within six months of the presentation. Such 
evidence of appointment must pertain to the estate of the last deceased 
registrant designated on the securities. A copy of a death certificate, 
certified under seal of the State or local registrar, is the only 
acceptable evidence of the date of death.
    (e) Execution of request. (1) The agent shall require:
    (i) That the request for payment on the back of each security be 
signed by the presenter in the presence of one of its officers or 
authorized employees; and
    (ii) That the presenter's address be furnished. Fiduciaries must 
sign as provided in Sec. 321.7 (e) and (f).
    (2) If the agent is qualified under 31 CFR part 330 (Circular No. 
888, current revision) and elects to use the special endorsement 
procedure, the request for payment need not be signed. If the request 
has already been signed when the security is presented, it should be 
signed again.
    (f) Certification of request. An agent is not required to complete 
the certification to the requests for payment on securities it redeems. 
When an agent transmits redeemed securities for settlement, as indicated 
in Sec. 321.14 of this part, such agent shall be understood by such 
submission to have represented and certified that the identity of the 
presenter, and his or her entitlement to request payment, have been 
established in accordance with this part and the appendix hereto.
[53 FR 37511, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 55 FR 35396, Aug. 29, 1990; 
59 FR 10537, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 321.12  Redemption value of securities.

    The redemption value of each security is determined by the terms of 
its offering and the length of time it has been outstanding. The Bureau 
of the Public Debt issues tables of redemption values for Series A-E 
bonds, eligible Series EE bonds, and savings notes that should be used 
in redeeming securities.



Sec. 321.13  Cancellation of redeemed securities.

    An agent shall cancel each redeemed security by imprinting the word 
``PAID'' on its face and entering the amount and date of the actual 
payment and the agent's name, location, and four-digit code number 
assigned by the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank. The recordation of 
this data shall constitute a certification by the agent that the 
security was redeemed in accordance with the provisions of this part, 
that the presenter's identity and entitlement to request payment were 
duly established, and that the proceeds were paid to the presenter or 
remitted to an appropriate Federal Reserve Bank in payment for Series HH 
bonds.
[53 FR 37511, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10537, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 321.14  Transmittal to and settlement by Federal Reserve Bank.

    In accordance with Federal Reserve Bank instructions, a paying agent 
shall transmit with an EZ CLEAR cash letter securities redeemed for cash 
and on redemption-exchange, either directly or through a correspondent 
institution, to the Check Department of the appropriate Bank or Branch, 
or to a Regional Check Processing Center (RCPC). Upon receipt of the 
securities, the Bank, Branch, or RCPC will arrange for immediate 
settlement with the presenting institution. Such settlement shall be 
made by a credit to the presenting institution's Reserve or other 
clearing account in the total amount paid, as reflected on the cash 
letter, and shall be subject to adjustment via a charge or credit to 
that account if any discrepancy is subsequently discovered.

           Subpart E--Losses Resulting From Erroneous Payments



Sec. 321.15  Liability for losses.

    Under the governing statute, as amended (31 U.S.C. 3126(a)), an 
agent cannot be relieved of liability for a loss resulting from an 
erroneous payment unless the Secretary of the Treasury can make a 
determination that the loss resulted from no fault or negligence on the 
agent's part.



Sec. 321.16  Report of erroneous payment.

    If an agent discovers an erroneous payment of securities, it should 
immediately advise the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26106-
1328, (304) 420-6402. If the circumstances of the payment warrant such 
action, the agent should also notify the nearest office of the United 
States Secret Service.



Sec. 321.17  Investigation of potential loss.

    (a) Notice to an agent. When it determines that a loss has occurred, 
because of the erroneous payment of securities, the Bureau of the Public 
Debt will notify the agent in writing and identify the securities.
    (b) Investigative procedure. The Bureau of the Public Debt may 
request the United States Secret Service to investigate potential 
losses. Upon request, the agent shall make available to the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, or its investigative agent, all records and information 
pertaining to the transaction in question, including the disposition of 
the redemption proceeds. If the proceeds were deposited in an account 
maintained by the agent, the information made available shall include 
the ultimate disposition of the redemption proceeds from the account.



Sec. 321.18  Determination of loss.

    Upon completion of the investigation, and after consideration of the 
results, the Bureau of the Public Debt shall advise the agent through 
which the payment occurred:
    (a) That no final loss to the United States has occurred, and, 
accordingly, that the agent is relieved from liability for the payment, 
or that no claim for reimbursement shall be made unless and until a loss 
has been sustained; or
    (b) That while a final loss to the United States has occurred, the 
agent is not required to make reimbursement therefor, as the Secretary 
of the Treasury, or his designee, has determined that such loss resulted 
from no fault or negligence on the part of such agent; or
    (c) That a final loss to the United States has occurred, and that, 
the Secretary of the Treasury, or his designee, has been unable to make 
an affirmative finding that such loss resulted from no fault or 
negligence on the part of such agent, reimbursement must be made 
promptly, except where credit for the payment had not previously been 
extended.



Sec. 321.19  Certification of signatures.

    The regulations in this subpart shall, to the extent appropriate, 
apply to losses resulting from payments made in reliance on 
certifications of signatures by an officer or designated employee of any 
financial institution authorized to certify requests for payment.



Sec. 321.20  Applicability of provisions.

    The provisions of this subpart shall apply to securities redeemed by 
any Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25, as fiscal agent, or 
any Treasury office authorized to redeem securities, as well as to 
paying agents.

Sec. 321.21  Replacement and recovery of losses.

    (a) If a final loss results from the redemption of a security, and 
the paying agent redeeming the security is not relieved of liability for 
such loss under 31 U.S.C. 3126(a), the Bureau of the Public Debt will 
demand that the paying agent promptly reimburse the United States in the 
amount of the final loss and will take such other action as may be 
necessary to collect such amount as set out in the procedure described 
in Paragraph 21 of the appendix to this part.
    (b) If a final loss has resulted from the redemption of a security, 
and no reimbursement has been or will be

[[Page 198]]

made, the loss shall be subject to replacement out of the fund 
established by the Government Losses in Shipment Act, as amended.
[61 FR 37197, July 16, 1996]

Sec. 321.22  Forwarding securities not payable by an agent.

    Any securities an agent is not authorized to pay under the 
provisions of this part should be forwarded for redemption to the Fiscal 
Agency Department of a Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25. 
The requests for payment on the securities should be properly certified. 
Any documentary evidence required to support the redemption should 
accompany the securities. If the securities are presented for 
redemption-exchange, they must also be accompanied by a completed and 
signed exchange subscription and any additional cash needed to complete 
the transaction. Unpaid securities so forwarded must not be commingled 
with redeemed securities transmitted for settlement.

                   Subpart G--Miscellaneous Provisions



Sec. 321.23  Paying agent fees and charges.

    (a) Fees. Fees shall be paid as outlined in this section. A schedule 
setting out the fees, and the basis on which they are computed and paid, 
is separately published in the Federal Register. Current information is 
available from a Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25.
    (1) Securities transmitted via EZ CLEAR. A fee will be paid for each 
security redeemed during a calendar month and transmitted via EZ CLEAR 
to a Federal Reserve Bank in separately sorted cash letters. Payment 
will be made to the presenting institution by ACH. No fees will be paid 
for redeemed securities received by a Bank in mixed cash letters.
    (2) To comply with the provisions of the Balanced Budget and 
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended (2 U.S.C. 901, et 
seq.), or the legislative resolution resulting therefrom, the Secretary 
may authorize, upon notice in the Federal Register, the discontinuance, 
reduction or delay of fee payments. Fee payments so affected may 
subsequently be paid in accordance with the schedule of fees as 
hereafter published, subject to the availability of funds therefor, and 
to the extent permitted by law. Fee payments for servicing occurring 
after notice of the resumption of such payments has been published in 
the Federal Register will be made in accordance with the schedule of 
fees published in such notice.
    (b) Charges to presenters. A paying agent shall not make any charge 
whatever to persons entitled to request payment of securities, for 
redeeming them under the provisions of this part.
[53 FR 37511, Sept. 26, 1988; 53 FR 39581, Oct. 7, 1988, as amended at 
55 FR 39960, Oct. 1, 1990; 59 FR 10537, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 321.24  Claims on account of lost securities.

    If a security redeemed by an agent is lost, stolen or destroyed 
while in its custody or in transit prior to settlement, the agent's 
claim for reimbursement of the missing security's redemption value on 
the original payment date will be considered, provided the security can 
be identified by serial number.



Sec. 321.25  Role of Federal Reserve Banks.

    (a) The Federal Reserve Banks referred to below, as fiscal agents of 
the United States, shall perform such services in connection with this 
part as may be requested by the Secretary of the Treasury, or his 
designee. The Banks are authorized and directed to perform such duties, 
including the issuance of instructions and forms, as may be necessary to 
fulfill the purposes and requirements of these regulations.
    (b)(1) The following Federal Reserve Offices have been designated to 
provide savings bond services:

out over the period prior to that date.
[59 FR 10537, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 321.26  Preservation of rights.

    Nothing contained in this part shall limit or restrict any existing 
rights which holders of securities may have acquired under the offering 
circulars and the applicable regulations.



Sec. 321.27  Supplements, amendments, or revisions.

    The Secretary of the Treasury may, at any time or from time to time, 
revise, supplement, amend or withdraw, in whole or in part, the 
provisions of this part.

Appendix to Department of the Treasury Circular No. 750, Fourth Revision

                Fiscal Service, Bureau of the Public Debt

                     Subpart A--General Information

    1. Purpose. This appendix is issued for the guidance of banks and 
other financial institutions qualified as paying agents of United States 
Savings Bonds and United States Savings Notes (Freedom Shares) under the 
provisions of 31 CFR part 321 [Department of the Treasury Circular No. 
750, Fourth Revision]. Its purpose is to provide information to 
supplement the regulations contained in the part and specific 
instructions for processing redemption and redemption-exchange 
transactions. The information and instructions are indexed to the 
sections and subsections of part 321 which they explain or expand.
    2. Other pertinent publications. In addition to part 321, agents 
should be familiar with the provisions of the following publications:
    (a) Offering circulars. Department of the Treasury Circulars, Public 
Debt Series Nos. 1-80 (Series EE bonds), 2-80 (Series HH bonds), and 3-
67 (savings notes), and Department of the Treasury Circular No. 653 
(Series E bonds).
    (b) Regulations. Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt 
Series No. 3-80 (Series EE and HH bonds); Department of the Treasury 
Circulars Nos. 530 (all other series of securities) and 888 (special 
endorsements); Federal Tax Regulations (26 CFR 1.6049); Federal Claims 
Collection Standards (4 CFR parts 101-105); Regulation J, Collection of 
Checks and Other Items and Wire Transfers of Funds (12 CFR part 210); 
and operating circulars issued by Federal Reserve Banks relating to the 
collection of cash items and Federal payments by ACH.

                 Subpart B--Procedures for Qualification

    3. Qualification of branches. [Sec. 321.3(b)] Qualification of an 
institution as a paying agent automatically qualifies only its domestic 
branches. A foreign branch of a qualified paying agent may redeem 
securities provided settlement is made through a qualified facility 
located in the Unied States.
    4. Paying agent code numbers. [Secs. 321.3(b) and 321.13] The 
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank will assign a four-digit code number to 
each agent it qualifies. A separate number will be assigned to each 
branch authorized to redeem and submit redeemed securities for its own 
account to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to a Regional Check 
Processing Center. At the paying agent's request, only one four-digit 
code will be assigned for use by all of its branches. The presenting 
institution's ABA number will be used in the adjustment of discrepancies 
and in the computation and payment of fees for securities transmitted in 
separately sorted cash letters.

[[Page 200]]

    5. Requalification. [Sec. 321.3(b)] If there has been a change in 
the corporate name of an agent, whether through merger, consolidation, 
sale of assets, or in any other manner, the agent may be asked by the 
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25 to requalify 
to reflect the change. Ordinarily, requalification is not required 
unless (a) the change results in a corporation that, under State law, 
cannot retain the rights of the corporation that ceased to exist, or (b) 
in the case of a purchase of assets and assumption of liability, the 
purchaser corporation is not a qualified paying agent.
    6. Announcement of authority. [Sec. 321.3(c)] On and after the 
effective date of its qualification, a paying agent may appropriately 
announce or advertise its authority to redeem eligible securities for 
cash and in exchange for Series HH bonds. Such statements and notices 
should not, directly or indirectly, encourage the encashment of the 
securities. Two examples of acceptable statements for use in 
advertisements or displays are:
    (a) ``We are an authorized agent for payment of U.S. Savings Bonds 
and U.S. Savings Notes (Freedom Shares).''
    (b) ``This (bank/savings and loan association/credit union, etc.) is 
authorized to pay U.S. Savings Bonds and U.S. Savings Notes (Freedom 
Shares) and process eligible Series E and EE bonds and savings notes in 
exchange for Series HH bonds.''

                      Subpart C--Scope of Authority

    7. Authorized cash payments. [Sec. 321.7]
    (a) General. [Sec. 321.7(a)] The general authority of paying agents 
to redeem securities for cash extends to Series A, B, C, D, E, and EE 
bonds and savings notes presented by the owner, coowner, surviving 
beneficiary, parent on behalf of a minor, legal representative 
designated in the registrations of securities presented, or legal 
representative of the last deceased registrant's estate. The presenter 
must sign the requests for payment and establish his or her identity 
and, in the case of a beneficiary, parent, or legal representative of 
the last deceased registrant's estate, entitlement to request payment.
    (b) Securities submitted by mail. [Sec. 321.7(a)] An agent may 
accept eligible securities submitted, for redemption by mail, from known 
customers. The agent should be satisfied that the customer is entitled 
to request payment and that he or she has signed the requests for 
payment. The agent should obtain written instructions to credit the 
redemption proceeds to the customer's account or to make some other 
disposition. For its protection, the agent should retain such 
instructions for as long as ten years in the event the transaction is 
later questioned.
    (c) Interest reporting. [Sec. 321.7(e)] Pursuant to 26 CFR 1.6049-4, 
an agent is required to report interest income in the amount of $10 or 
more paid as part of the redemption value of securities. Reports to 
payees should be made on Form 1099-INT or an IRS-approved substitute; 
reports to the Internal Revenue Service should be made in accordance 
with that agency's instructions. A separate report may be made for each 
transaction in which interest in the amount of $10 or more is paid, or 
all interest payments, made during a calendar year, may be aggregated 
and reported annually should the total amount be $10 or more.
    8. Redemption-exchange of Series E and EE savings bonds and savings 
notes. [Sec. 321.8]
    (a) General. [Sec. 321.8 (a) and (b)] The general authority of 
paying agents to redeem securities in exchange for Series HH bonds 
extends only to eligible Series E and EE savings bonds and savings notes 
presented with a completed Form PD 3253, ``Exchange Subscription for 
United States Savings Bonds of Series HH.'' Securities eligible for 
exchange are: (1) Series EE bonds presented no earlier than six months 
from their issue dates; and (2) Series E bonds and savings notes 
presented no later than one year from the month in which they reached 
final maturity. The current redemption value of securities presented in 
one transaction must be at least $500. The presenter must establish his 
or her identity and entitlement to request the exchange and sign the 
exchange subcription and the requests for payment on the securities.
    (b) Securities in the name of a minor. [Sec. 321.8(b)] If an 
exchange subscription is submitted on behalf of a minor who is too young 
to comprehend the nature of the transaction, the form must be completed 
to request that the Series HH bonds be registered either in the minor's 
name alone or in exactly the same form as the securities presented for 
exchange. Agents are instructed to discourage exchange transactions 
involving minors who are too young to conduct them on their own.
    (c) Interest reporting. [Sec. 321.8(c)] Pursuant to 26 CFR 1.6049-4, 
an agent is required to report interest income in the amount of $10 or 
more included in any cash refunded in a redemption-exchange transaction. 
Reports to payees should be made on Form 1099-INT or an IRS-approved 
substitute; reports to the Internal Revenue Service should be made in 
accordance with that agency's instructions. A separate report may be 
made for each redemption-exchange transaction in which interest in the 
amount of $10 or more is refunded, or all interest paid in both cash 
transactions and redemption-exchanges during a calendar year may be 
aggregated and reported annually should the total amount be $10 or more.
    9. Specific limitations on payment authority. [Sec. 321.9]
    (a) Allowable exceptions. [Sec. 321.9] Securities which an agent may 
not redeem because

[[Page 201]]

of the limitations in Sec. 321.9 should be forwarded to the Fiscal 
Agency Department of a Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25 
for handling. However, if an agent is willing to assume full 
responsibility, it may make payment of an eligible security which bears 
a minor irregularity, such as a misspelled name, a transposition of 
letters, etc., because of its knowledge of the facts, or because it 
wishes to rely on the integrity of the presenter.
    (b) Taxpayer identifying number of presenter. [Sec. 321.9(f)] An 
agent shall refuse payment of any security if the taxpayer identifying 
number of the presenter, or the estate represented by the presenter, is 
not known to the agent and the presenter is unwilling to furnish the 
number. A parent who requests payment on behalf of a minor in accordance 
with Sec. 321.7(c) of this part must provide the minor's social security 
number.
    (c) Payments to minors. [Sec. 321.9(j)] A minor may not request 
payment of securities if he or she is not of sufficient competency and 
understanding to comprehend the nature of the act. Because of individual 
differences in comprehension, the Treasury has not established any rule 
as to the exact age at which a minor should be able to redeem 
securities. An agent may interview a minor to ascertain his or her 
ability to understand the transaction.
    10. Responsibilities of paying agents. [Sec. 321.10]
    (a) Requirements for redeeming securities. [Sec. 321.10(a)] A paying 
agent shall redeem eligible securities during its regular business hours 
for a presenter who establishes his or her identity as the owner or 
coowner of the securities, in accordance with this part and this 
appendix. While a paying agent is not required to redeem securities in 
exchange for Series HH bonds for any presenter, or for cash upon the 
request of a surviving beneficiary or legal representative, it is 
encouraged to do so, provided the presenter can establish his/her 
identity and provide acceptable evidence in accordance with this part 
and this appendix (see Sec. 321.7 (d) and (f)). An agent is not required 
to redeem securities during Saturday and evening hours if it is open 
during such periods primarily as a service for its depositors.
    (b) Restrictions. [Sec. 321.10(b)] Violation of the regulatory 
prohibitions on making charges for redeeming securities; on advancing 
money on, making loans on, or discounting the redemption value of 
securities; and on deferring presentation of redeemed securities to 
obtain a larger credit, will be cause for disqualification and recovery 
of the redemption proceeds and profits realized therefrom.

            Subpart D--Payment and Transmittal of Securities

    11. Identification of presenter. [Sec. 321.11(b)]
    (a) Identification guide. [Sec. 321.11(b)] The Treasury Department 
has issued an identification guide, Form PD 3900, to assist paying 
agents in redeeming securities. Careful compliance with the instructions 
contained therein will enable agents to accommodate reasonable 
redemption requests and protect themselves from losses. Reliance on 
newly opened customer accounts as identification, or paying more than 
$1,000 in a single transaction based on documentary evidence alone, 
should be particularly avoided.
    (b) Record of identification practice and evidence presented. [Sec. 
321.11 (b) through (d)] At the time of payment, the agent should make a 
notation on the back of the security or in its own records specifying 
precisely what was relied on to establish the presenter's identity. The 
identification should be adequate to identify the payee under the 
circumstances of the transaction. If an agent redeems a security upon 
the request of a surviving beneficiary or a legal representative of the 
last deceased registrant's estate, it should also make a notation of the 
evidence presented to establish the payee's entitlement; this might 
include the document or case number on the death certificate(s) and/or 
evidence of the legal representative's appointment, the date(s) of 
death, and the names and locations of the issuing authorities. The 
notations should be sufficient to permit a determination of the evidence 
of identity and entitlement at a later date. Otherwise, the agent runs 
the risk that no evidence can be developed to show that it acted without 
fault or negligence, in which case it could not be relieved of liability 
should a loss occur.
    12. Request for payment. [Sec. 321.11(d)]
    (a) Signature. [Sec. 321.11(e)] Except where an agent qualified 
under 31 CFR part 330 (Circular No. 888) elects to use the special 
endorsement procedure, each security redeemed by the agent must bear the 
signature of the presenter. The name must be signed exactly as it is 
inscribed on the security, unless the provisions of 31 CFR part 330 and 
this appendix provide for an exception, such as in cases involving a 
change of name by marriage, a request by a parent on behalf of a minor, 
or a legal representative of the last deceased registrant's estate. An 
agent may be held liable if the request for payment is not properly 
signed. Legal representatives must sign as provided in Sec. 321.7 (e) 
and (f).
    (b) Address. [Sec. 321.11(d)] The presenter must enter a current 
home or business address in the space provided on the back of the 
security. If a single transaction includes a group of securities, the 
address must be shown on at least one security of each of the following 
types: (1) Paper securities issued prior to October 1957; (2) punch card 
or machine readable paper securities issued prior to January 1989; and 
(3) machine readable

[[Page 202]]

paper securities issued subsequent to December 1988.
    13. Redemption value of securities. [Sec. 321.12]
    (a) Redemption value tables. [Sec. 321.12] The Bureau of the Public 
Debt distributes tables of redemption values for:
    (1) Series E bonds, (2) Series EE bonds, and (3) savings notes. 
Additional tables may be requested from the appropriate Federal Reserve 
Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25. The public may purchase redemption 
tables from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, 
Washington, DC 20402.
    (b) Use of tables. [Sec. 321.12] A separate monthly table is 
provided for each of the three types of securities (E bonds, EE bonds, 
and notes). Care should be exercised to use the correct table for the 
security presented and for the month in which it is redeemed. Incorrect 
payments can lead to costly and time-consuming adjustments for the 
agent, Department of the Treasury, and the appropriate Federal Reserve 
Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25.
    (c) Cash redemption. [Sec. 321.12] The correct redemption value of 
securities redeemed by an agent should be paid to the presenter in 
currency or, upon request, by check payable to the presenter or by 
credit to his or her account.
    (d) Redemption-exchange. [Sec. 321.12] The redemption values of 
securities presented for exchange for Series HH bonds shall be those 
payable in the month the agent accepts a correctly completed and signed 
exchange subscription, Form PD 3253. The total redemption value of 
securities presented for exchange in any one transaction must be at 
least $500. If the redemption value is $500 or an even multiple thereof, 
Series HH bonds must be requested in that exact amount. If the 
redemption value exceeds $500, but is not an even multiple of that 
amount, the presenter may (1) add cash to increase the amount of the 
subscription to the next higher $500 multiple, or (2) reduce the amount 
of the subscription to the next lower $500 multiple. The maximum amount 
which may be added to or refunded in an exchange transaction is $499.99. 
For example, if the total redemption value of the securities is 
$4,253.33, the presenter may request no less than $4,000 and no more 
than $4,500 in Series HH bonds. In the first instance, the agent will 
pay the presenter $253.33; in the second, it will collect $246.67 when 
it accepts the exchange subscription.
    14. Cancellation of redeemed securities. [Sec. 321.13]
    (a) Paying agent stamp. [Sec. 321.13] Each redeemed security must be 
cancelled by the imprint of a payment stamp. The stamp may not exceed 
1\1/8\ inches in any dimension and must include the following 
information in the arrangement shown:
Paid $------ (for recording amount paid).
Name, location, and four-digit paying agent code number assigned by the 
          appropriate Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25 
          (subject to abbreviation and arrangement by the Bank).

Date ------ (for recording actual date of payment).
By ------ (for use by agent in recording initials, or signature, codes, 
          symbols, etc., of the officer or employee who approved or made 
          the payment).

    (b) Procurement of stamps. [Sec. 321.12] A paying agent may 
requisition stamps from the Fiscal Agency Department of the appropriate 
Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25 or purchase its own 
stamps. Stamps not provided by the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank 
referred to in Sec. 321.25 must conform exactly in size and design to 
that prescribed or approved by the Bank. To insure legible impressions, 
stamps should be replaced when worn.
    (c) Imprinting payment stamp and recording payment date. [Sec. 
321.13] After determining that a security is eligible for payment, the 
agent should carefully imprint the payment stamp on its face in the open 
space immediately to the left of, and as close as possible to, the issue 
date and issuing agent validating data. It is important not to overprint 
any data on the security, particularly the serial number, since the 
security will subsequently be microfilmed. No other stamps shall be 
placed on the face of the security. Care should be taken to record 
legibly the correct amount, the exact date of redemption, and the 
signature, initials, or other identification of the agent's employee who 
approved or made the payment. A dark-colored ink must be used, and care 
should be taken not to smear the stamp impression or the writing.
    (d) Redemption-exchange. [Sec. 321.13] Securities presented for 
redemption-exchange shall be stamped ``PAID'' in the same manner as 
securities redeemed for cash, but only when all elements of the 
transaction have been completed, including receipt of any additional 
cash. The exact date of redemption shall also be recorded on the 
exchange subscription to enable the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank 
referred to in Sec. 321.25 to establish the proper issue date for the 
Series HH bonds. An officer or other authorized employee of the agent 
shall also sign the exchange subscription, in his or her official 
capacity, and furnish other requested information that identifies the 
paying agent.
    (e) MICR-encoding of payment information. [Sec. 321.13] An agent 
shall MICR-encode the redemption value in the ``Amount'' field on the 
face of each security or arrange to have this service performed by 
another financial institution. If the agent transmits securities in 
mixed cash letters, it must also MICR-encode the routing/transit number 
assigned to

[[Page 203]]

the Bureau of the Public Debt's savings bond activity in the ``R/T'' 
field on the face of all pre-October 1957 paper securities and those 
punch card securities on which it does not already appear. The Bureau's 
routing/transit number is 000090007. Care should be taken in repairing 
MICR-encoded items so as not to obliterate any data in surrounding MICR 
fields or elsewhere on the face of the security.
    15. Transmittal of securities to Federal Reserve Bank. [Sec. 321.14] 
An agent shall transmit and receive settlement for redeemed securities 
via EZ CLEAR, i.e., the Check Department of a Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch, or the Regional Check Processing Center. Redeemed securities may 
be transmitted in separately sorted or mixed cash letters to the Check 
Department of a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, or to a Regional Check 
Processing Center, either directly, or via a parent office or 
correspondent institution. An agent shall transmit redeemed securities 
under cover of the appropriate transmittal document. Securities redeemed 
in exchange for Series HH bonds must be transmitted for settlement via 
EZ CLEAR at the same time as the exchange application (PD F 3253) and 
any additional cash needed to complete the transaction are forwarded to 
the Fiscal Agency Department of the servicing Federal Reserve Bank 
referred to in Sec. 321.25. Securities redeemed on exchange may be 
commingled with cash redemptions in mixed or separately sorted cash 
letters.
    16. Transmittal of securities to Federal Reserve Bank via fiscal 
agency system. [Sec. 321.14] The Fiscal Agency Department of a Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch will not accept for settlement securities an 
agent has redeemed.
    17. Transmittal of securities to Federal Reserve Bank via EZ CLEAR. 
[Sec. 321.14]
    (a) Form to be used. [Sec. 321.14] The presenting institution shall 
transmit all redeemed securities to the Check Department of a Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch or Regional Check Processing Center in accordance 
with the Bank's instructions. Except as otherwise provided in the Bank's 
instructions and operating circulars, cash letters may be comprised of 
one or more bundles of separately sorted redeemed securities (separately 
sorted cash letter) or one or more bundles of mixed items (mixed cash 
letter). The cash letter shall show the name, address, and ABA number of 
the presenting institution, the date of presentation, the total number 
of pieces transmitted, the value of each of the bundles in the cash 
letter, and the total value of the cash letter.
    (b) Composition of cash letters. [Sec. 321.14] Series A, B, C, D, E, 
and EE bonds and savings notes redeemed for cash or on exchange may be 
commingled in (1) mixed cash letters containing commercial checks and 
other items or (2) separately sorted cash letters containing only 
redeemed securities. Each cash letter shall also contain a listing 
prepared in accordance with the Federal Reserve Bank's instructions.
    (c) Transmittal of securities. [Sec. 321.14] Cash letters containing 
redeemed securities shall be transmitted to a Federal Reserve Bank in 
accordance with the Bank's circulars and instructions.
    (d) Timing of transmittals. [Sec. 321.14] Cash letters containing 
redeemed securities should be transmitted according to the same schedule 
used for other commercial check collection system items.
    (e) Settlement for the audit of paid securities.
    (1) Settlement. [Sec. 321.14] The Federal Reserve Bank will make 
immediate settlement for the total value of redeemed securities as shown 
on each cash letter. Settlement will be made by a credit to the reserve 
or clearing account of the agent or designated correspondent 
institution. Data concerning redeemed security transmittals will be sent 
to the Bureau of the Public Debt for audit. The amount will be subject 
to adjustment if discrepancies are discovered after settlement has been 
made.
    (2) Audit and adjustment [Sec. 321.14] The Bureau of the Public Debt 
will audit all redemption data received from the Central Site as 
promptly as possible. Each presenting institution will, in due course, 
be notified by the Bank of any adjustments required. The Bank will 
adjust via a charge or credit to the presenting institution's Reserve or 
clearing account any amounts previously credited to that account.
    (3) Requests for Adjustments. Depositors who discover errors in 
their EZ CLEAR cash letters subsequent to deposit should allow sixty 
(60) calendar days from the date of their EZ CLEAR cash letter before 
requesting adjustments for the cash letter. This will allow sufficient 
time for the Treasury to classify the savings bonds, forward adjustments 
to the Central Site and for the Central Site to research and function 
adjustments to the depositor.
    (4) Separately Sorting Depositors should submit adjustment requests 
directly to the Central Site Adjustments Department in correspondence. 
However, all requests for adjustments due to incorrect cash letter 
crediting should be directed to the servicing Federal Reserve Bank.
    (5) Mixed Depositors should submit adjustment requests to their 
servicing Federal Reserve Bank.
    18. Record of securities paid. [Secs. 321.14 and 321.24] A record of 
the serial number and the amount paid for each redeemed security must be 
retained by the agent for one year so that settlement can be made if the 
security is lost in transit, and so that the agent can process any 
subsequent adjustment as described in paragraph 17(e)(2) above. For that 
purpose, agents are authorized to microfilm the face and back of each 
security

[[Page 204]]

they redeem. Such film records shall be kept confidential and prints 
therefrom may be made only with the permission of the Bureau of the 
Public Debt or an appropriate Federal Reserve Bank.

           Subpart E--Losses Resulting from Erroneous Payments

    19. Report of erroneous payment. [Sec. 321.16] Any erroneous payment 
that comes to the attention of an agent should be reported immediately 
to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328. The 
nearest office of the Secret Service should also be notified if the 
agent believes that a security presented for redemption may be 
counterfeit or stolen, or if the circumstances of the presentation are 
suspicious in any other respect.
    20. Notice to agent. [Sec 321.17(a)] The paying agent will be 
notified if an erroneous payment has occurred. The notice will generally 
be in writing from the Bureau of the Public Debt. If an investigation is 
to be made, the notice will enable the agent to notify its bonding 
company, assemble pertinent information concerning the transaction for 
presentation during the investigation, and take any other action it 
deems appropriate to protect its interest.
    21. Determination of liability. [Sec. 321.18 and Sec. 321.21]
    (a) Upon completing the investigation, the Bureau of the Public Debt 
will examine the available information and determine whether a paying 
agent may be relieved of liability for any loss that may have resulted. 
If the paying agent cannot be relieved of liability, demand will be made 
upon the paying agent to reimburse the Treasury promptly. Any amount not 
paid within 30 days following the mailing of the first demand letter is 
subject to the following charges.
    (1) Interest shall accrue from the date the first demand letter is 
mailed to the date reimbursement is made. The rate of interest to be 
used will be the current value of funds rate published annually or 
quarterly in the Federal Register and in effect during the entire period 
in which the remittance is late.
    (2) Administrative costs shall be assessed as set out in the first 
demand letter, if reimbursement is not made within 30 days of the date 
the first demand letter is mailed.
    (3) Penalty charges shall be assessed, in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 
3717(e), if reimbursement is not made within 120 days of the date the 
first demand letter is mailed. The penalty charge will accrue and be 
calculated from 30 days after the date the first demand letter is mailed 
to the date of reimbursement.
    (b) When a paying agent fails, within 120 days of the date the first 
demand letter is mailed, to make such reimbursement or to submit new 
evidence sufficient for Public Debt to change the determination of 
liability, by virtue of the paying agent's acceptance of settlement via 
credits to a Reserve, correspondent, or clearing account with a Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch, the agent is deemed to have authorized the 
Federal Reserve Bank to debit the amount due from that account 
designated or utilized by the agent at the Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch. An institution, designated by a paying agent to receive 
settlement on its behalf, in authorizing such paying agent to utilize 
its Reserve, correspondent, or clearing account on the books at the 
Federal Reserve Bank shall similarly be deemed to authorize such debits 
from that account.
    (c) Reconsideration of a determination of liability will be made in 
any case when a paying agent so requests and presents additional 
evidence and information regarding the transaction.
    22. Relief for lack of timely notice. [Sec 321.18] A paying agent 
will be relieved of liability to the United States for any loss 
resulting from the erroneous payment of securities where the Secretary 
of the Treasury, or his designee, determines that written notice of 
either liability or potential liability has not been given to the agent 
within ten years of the date of the erroneous payment.

                       Subpart F--Forwarding Items

    23. Securities forwarded to Federal Reserve Bank for payment. [Sec 
321.22]
    (a) General. [Sec 321.22] Securities presented for cash payment or 
redemption-exchange, that an agent is not authorized to redeem, shall be 
forwarded to the Fiscal Agency Department of the appropriate Federal 
Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25, with all required supporting 
documentation and any necessary payment instructions.
    (b) Signature to and certification of request for payment. [Sec 
321.22] An agent qualified under part 330 (Circular No. 888) may elect 
to specially endorse securities for presenters in lieu of requiring 
completion of the requests for payment. Unless this procedure is used, 
the presenter must sign the request on each security and the signature 
must be certified. Before completing the certification, the agent should 
establish the identity of the presenter. The Treasury's identification 
guidelines should be followed in view of the potential liability that 
attaches to such certification.
    (c) Address and Taxpayer identifying number. [Sec 321.22] In every 
case, a current address shall be furnished. The presenter's taxpayer 
identifying number (social security number or employer identification 
number) shall be provided if it is not included in the inscription.
    (d) Redemption-exchange. [Sec 321.22] For redemption-exchange 
transactions submitted as forwarding items, the issue date of the Series 
HH bonds will be the first day of the month in which a correctly 
completed and

[[Page 205]]

signed exchange subscription and full payment are received by the 
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25.
    (e) Partial redemption. [Sec 321.9(1) and 321.22] partial redemption 
of a security other than a $25 Series E bond or savings note, a $50 
Series EE bond, or a $500 Series H or HH bond may be made by the 
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25. The amount 
paid must be equal to the redemption value of one or more authorized 
denominations on the date of the transaction. If a security is received 
by an agent for partial redemption, the words ``to the extent of $       
(face amount) and reissue of the remainder'' should be added to the 
first sentence of the request for payment. The request should then be 
completed in the regular manner and the signature of the presenter 
certified. The security shall be forwarded to the Fiscal Agency 
Department of a Federal Reserve Bank.

                   Subpart G--Miscellaneous Provisions

    24. Fees and charges. [Sec 321.23] Service fees are not intended to 
compensate paying agents for the reporting of interest paid as part of 
the redemption value of securities as required by Federal Tax 
Regulations (26 CFR 1.0649-4).
    Fees will be paid to the presenting institution for securities 
redeemed during each calendar month that are submitted in separately 
sorted cash letters; such fee payments will be made only by ACH. No fees 
will be paid for securities received by the Federal Reserve Bank in 
mixed cash letters. The Bank will charge the presenting institution for 
processing redeemed securities received in mixed cash letters. Inquiries 
regarding separately sorted cash letters should be directed to the 
Pittsburgh Branch, Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, P.O. Box 867, 
Pittsburgh, PA 15230-0867. Inquiries regarding mixed cash letters should 
be directed to the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or Regional Check 
Processing Center where the cash letters were directed.
    25. Claims on account of lost securities [Sec. 321.24] If a security 
redeemed by an agent is lost, stolen, or destroyed while in the custody 
of the agent, or in transit prior to settlement or audit, relief will be 
considered, provided the security can be identified by serial number. 
[See paragraph 18 of this appendix regarding the maintenance of records 
of redeemed securities]. The presenting institution should resubmit a 
photocopy of the security to obtain settlement in accordance with 
established procedures. Questions concerning the established procedures 
should be referred to the servicing Federal Reserve Bank.
    26. Education savings bond program. [Sec. 321.7(g)]
    (a) Section 6009 of the Technical Corrections and Miscellaneous 
Revenue Act of 1988, Public Law 100-647 (26 U.S.C. 135), permits 
taxpayers to exclude all, or a portion, of the interest earned on Series 
EE savings bonds, bearing issue dates on or after January 1, 1990, from 
their income under certain conditions. This legislation did not create 
new savings bond redemption and interest reporting requirements for 
savings bond paying agents. However, if a bond owner indicates that he 
or she intends to seek the special tax treatment offered under this 
program, the agent is encouraged to provide assistance by:
    (1) Directing him or her to IRS Publications 550, Investment Income 
and Expenses, and 17, Your Federal Income Taxes, for detailed 
information; or
    (2) Suggesting that the presenter make a record of eligible bonds 
redeemed either by using IRS Optional Form 8818, or otherwise.
    (b) Bond owners seeking to benefit from the special tax exclusion, 
available through the savings bond education feature, should be aware of 
the following basic rules:
    (1) Only interest earned on Series EE bonds bearing issue dates on 
or after January 1, 1990, is eligible for the exclusion of interest 
income, where the proceeds from the redemption of the bonds are used to 
pay qualified post-secondary education expenses. Interest received on 
bonds bearing issue dates prior to January 1, 1990, is not eligible.
    (2)(i) The bonds must be registered in the name of a taxpayer as 
sole owner, or in the name of the taxpayer as co-owner, with the 
taxpayer's spouse as the other co-owner. Bonds registered in the name of 
the taxpayer's child, as owner or co-owner, will not qualify for the 
exclusion. A taxpayer may purchase bonds registered in beneficiary form, 
i.e., ``A payable on death to B'', naming any individual, including a 
child, as beneficary.
    (ii) The bonds must be registered in the name of a taxpayer who has 
attained the age of 24 years at the time of issue. Generally, a taxpayer 
must be 24 years of age on or before the first day of the month in which 
the taxpayer purchases the bond, because savings bonds bear the issue 
date of the first day of the month in which purchased.
    (3) The bond must be redeemed by the owner or co-owner. It may not 
be transferred to-the educational institution.
    (4) If the entire amount of the proceeds of the eligible bonds is 
less than, or equal to, the qualified post-secondary educational 
expenses incurred by the owner, his or her spouse, or his or her 
dependent, all interest received is excludable, subject to the 
limitations in paragraph (b)(7) of this section. If the amount of the 
proceeds exceeds such qualified expenses, the excludable portion of the 
interest will be reduced by a pro rata amount.
    (5) Qualified educational expenses are limited to tuition and fees 
required for the enrollment of, or attendance by, the taxpayer,

[[Page 206]]

or the taxpayer's spouse or dependent, at an eligible educational 
institution. These expenses are calculated net of scholarships, 
fellowships, employer-provided educational assistance, and other tuition 
reduction amounts, and must be incurred during the tax year of the 
redemption of the bonds for which the interest exclusion is claimed.
    (6) Eligible educational institutions include those defined in 
sections 1201(a) and 481(a)(1) (C) and (D) of the Higher Education Act 
of 1965, as in effect on October 21, 1988, excluding proprietary 
institutions. Such eligible institutions include post-secondary 
institutions, and vocational schools that meet the standards for 
participation in Federal financial aid programs, excluding proprietary 
institutions. Additional gudiance concerning eligible institutions 
should be obtained from the Department of Education.
    (7)(i) Interest exclusion benefits are based on the modified 
adjusted gross income of the taxpayer. For taxpayers filing a joint 
Federal income tax return, the exclusion is gradually decreased for 
modified adjusted gross income between $60,000 and $90,000. Married 
taxpayers filing jointly who have modified adjusted gross incomes above 
$90,000 are ineligible for the exclusion. For single taxpayers and heads 
of households, the exclusion is gradually decreased for such incomes 
between $40,000 and $55,000. Single taxpayers with such incomes above 
$55,000 are ineligible for the exclusion. After 1990, these income 
limits will be adjusted for inflation.
    (ii) Married taxpayers must file a joint return in order to qualify 
for the exclusion. Married taxpayers filing separate returns will not 
qualify for the exclusion, regardless of their modified adjusted gross 
incomes.
    (8) The taxpayer is responsible for maintaining adequate records of 
bond redemption transactions to support claims for the exclusion, in 
accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue 
Service.
    (9) The Internal Revenue Service should be consulted for advice 
concerning the eligibility and tax treatment of bonds for the income 
exclusion under the educational savings bond program.
    27. Additional information. [Sec 321.25] Requests for additional 
advice, clarification of the payment regulations or this Appendix, and 
other matters relating to the actions of a financial institution as 
paying agent should generally be made to the appropriate Federal Reserve 
Bank referred to in Sec. 321.25.

redemption and application of the proceeds in payment of taxes (other 
than securities presented for redemption at par and application of the 
proceeds in payment of Federal estate taxes).
    (c) Instructions from Federal Reserve banks. Federal Reserve banks 
will inform eligible banks and Service Center Directors and District 
Directors, Internal Revenue Service, in their respective districts as to 
the procedure to be followed under the authority granted by these 
regulations. Restrictive endorsements shall not be placed on securities 
until such information is received from the Federal Reserve banks.



Sec. 328.4  Effect of restrictive endorsements.

    Bearer securities bearing restrictive endorsements as herein 
provided will thereafter be nonnegotiable and payment, redemption, or 
exchange will be made only as provided in such endorsements.



Sec. 328.5  Forms of endorsement.

    (a) When presented by banks--(1) For payment or exchange. The 
endorsement placed on a bearer security presented for payment or 
exchange by a bank should be in the following form:

For presentation to the Federal Reserve Bank of ----------------------, 
Fiscal Agent of the United States, for redemption or in exchange for 
securities of a new issue, in accordance with written instructions 
submitted by ------------------------------. (Insert name of presenting

    (2) For redemption at par. The endorsement placed on a bearer 
security presented for redemption at par in payment of Federal estate 
taxes should be in the following form:

Fiscal Agent of the United States, for redemption at par in payment of 
Federal estate taxes, in accordance with written instructions submitted

    (b) For conversion to book-entry securities. The endorsement placed

to the account of the Service Center Director, Internal Revenue Service, 
at ----------, for credit on the Federal -------------------- (Income, 
gifts, or other)

[[Page 210]]

taxes due from --------------------. (Name and address)



Sec. 328.6  Requirements for endorsement.

    (a) On bearer securities. The endorsement must be imprinted in the 
lefthand portion of the face of each security with the first line 
thereof parallel to the left edge of the security and in such manner as 
to be clearly legible and in such position that it will not obscure the 
serial number, series designation, or other identifying data, and cover 
the smallest possible portion of the text on the face of the security. 
The dimensions of the endorsement should be approximately 4 inches in 
width and 1\1/2\ inches in height, and must be imprinted by stamp or 
plate of such character as will render the endorsement substantially 
ineradicable. The name of the Federal Reserve bank of the district must 
appear on the plate or stamp used for the imprinting of the endorsement, 
and presentation to the appropriate branch of the Federal Reserve bank 
named will be considered as presentation to the bank. When securities 
are to be presented to the Bureau of the Public Debt, the words ``United 
States Treasury'' should be used in lieu of the words ``Federal Reserve 
Bank of ----------------, Fiscal Agent of the United States.'' No 
subsequent endorsement will be recognized. If the form of endorsement on 
a security is different than that prescribed in Sec. 328.5, the 
provisions of Secs. 328.7 and 328.8 shall not apply to the security.
    (b) On coupons. Unmatured coupons attached to restrictively endorsed 
securities should be canceled by imprinting the prescribed endorsement 
in such manner that a substantial portion of the endorsement will appear 
on each such coupon. If any such coupons are missing, deduction of their 
face amount will be made in cases of redemption, and in cases of 
exchange, remittance equal to the face amount of the missing coupons 
must accompany the securities. All matured coupons, including coupons 
which will mature on or before the date of redemption or exchange 
(except as otherwise specifically provided in an announcement of an 
exchange offering), should be detached from securities upon which 
restrictive endorsements are to be imprinted.



Sec. 328.7  Shipment of securities.

    Securities bearing restrictive endorsements may be shipped, at the 
risk and expense of the shipper, by registered mail, messenger, armored 
car service, or express to the Federal Reserve bank of the district in 
which the presenting bank, the Service Center Director, or the District 
Director, Internal Revenue Service, is located, or to the appropriate 
branch of such Federal Reserve bank, shipments to the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Washington, DC, should be made by messenger or armored car.



Sec. 328.8  Loss, theft, or destruction of securities bearing restrictive endorsements.

    (a) General. Relief will be provided on account of securities 
bearing restrictive endorsements proved to have been lost, stolen or 
destroyed, upon the owner's application, in the same manner as 
registered securities which have not been assigned. (See subpart N of 
the current revision of Department Circular No. 300, the general 
regulations governing United States securities.) Except for bearer 
securities submitted for redemption at par in payment of Federal estate 
taxes, a bank will be considered the owner of securities handled on 
behalf of customers unless it otherwise requests. The application for 
relief (Form PD 2211) and instructions will be furnished by the Federal 
Reserve banks.
    (b) Bond of indemnity. Where securities bearing restrictive 
endorsements shipped by a bank have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, a 
bond of indemnity with surety satisfactory to the Secretary of the 
Treasury will be required from the owner. If such bond is executed by a 
bank or other corporation, the execution must be authorized by general 
or special resolution of the board of directors, or other body 
exercising similar functions under its bylaws. Ordinarily, no surety 
will be required on a bond executed by a presenting bank. The Secretary 
of the Treasury reserves the right, however, to require a surety in any 
case in which he

[[Page 211]]

considers such action necessary for the protection of the United States.



Sec. 328.9  Miscellaneous.

    The provisions of this circular are subject to the current revision 
of Department Circular No. 300. The Secretary of the Treasury reserves 
the right at any time to amend, supplement, or withdraw any or all of 
the provisions of these regulations.

Sec. 330.0  Purpose.

    The regulations in this part establish a procedure under which 
qualified paying agents may specially endorse United States Savings 
Bonds of certain series and United States Savings Notes (Freedom 
Shares), and either redeem the securities so endorsed, or forward them 
to a Federal Reserve Bank for redemption, with or without the owner's 
signature to the requests for payment.



Sec. 330.1  Definition of terms.

    As used in this part:
    (a) Federal Reserve Bank or Bank refers to the Federal Reserve Bank 
providing savings bond services to the district in which a paying agent 
is located. See Sec. 330.9.
    (b) Owner(s) means the person(s) named as registered owner or 
coowners on a bond or note, or as the designated beneficiary who has 
succeeded to ownership of the bond or note upon the death of the owner. 
For the purposes of special endorsement, but not payment, by a qualified 
agent, the term may also include fiduciaries, corporations, 
partnerships, associations, and other entities named on a security, 
where such registration is authorized.
    (c) Paying agent(s) or agent(s) refers to an eligible financial 
institution qualified under the provisions of this part to specially 
endorse securities and qualified, under the provisions of Department of 
the Treasury Circular No. 750, current revision (31 CFR part 321), to 
redeem eligible savings bonds and notes. The term includes the branches 
of a qualified agent that redeem bonds and notes and are themselves 
directly accountable for such redemptions.
    (d) Redemption and payment are used interchangeably for payment of a 
bond or note in accordance with the terms of its offering and the 
regulations governing it, and include redemption-exchange.
    (e) Redemption-exchange means any authorized redemption of eligible 
securities for the purpose of applying the proceeds in payment for other 
securities offered in exchange by the Treasury.
    (f) Savings bond(s) or bond(s) means a United States Savings Bond of 
Series A, B, C, D, E, or EE.
    (g) Savings notes(s) or notes(s) means a United States Savings Note

    (h) Security or securities means a savings bond or note, as defined 
in paragraphs (f) and (g) of this section.
    (i) Special endorsement means a procedure under which a security is 
redeemed by an agent, qualified under the provisions of this part, for 
cash or on redemption-exchange (or forwarded for redemption to a 
designated Federal Reserve Bank, where appropriate), utilizing a special 
stamp placed on the security in lieu of a request for payment signed by 
the owner.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10538, 10539, Mar. 4, 
1994]

[[Page 212]]



Sec. 330.2  Qualification for use of special endorsement.

    (a) Application for authority. Any financial institution qualified 
as a paying agent of savings bonds and notes under the provisions of 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 750, current revision, may 
establish its eligibility to employ the special endorsement procedure by 
executing and submitting the appropriate application-agreement form to 
the designated Federal Reserve Bank. In executing the form, the agent 
certifies that, by duly executed resolution of its governing board or 
committee, it has been authorized to apply for the privilege of paying 
and processing securities in accordance with the provisions and 
conditions of this part (Circular No. 888, including all supplements, 
amendments, and revisions, and any related instructions). If the 
application is approved, the designated Federal Reserve Bank will issue 
a certificate of qualification.
    (b) Agents previously qualified. Paying agents qualified under 
previous revisions of this part are authorized to continue to act 
without requalification. They shall, however, be subject to the terms 
and conditions of the previously executed application and these 
regulations in the same manner and to the same extent as though they had 
requalified hereunder.
    (c) Termination of qualification. The Secretary of the Treasury 
reserves the right to withdraw the special endorsement authority from 
any paying agent at any time. Such authority will also be terminated at 
any time at the request of the paying agent. In either event, formal 
notice of the termination shall be given to the agent in writing by the 
designated Federal Reserve Bank.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.3  Special endorsement of securities.

    (a) Form of endorsement. Each security processed under the 
provisions of this part shall bear the following endorsement:

    Request by owner and validity of transaction guaranteed in 
accordance with T.D. Circular No. 888, as revised. (Name, location, and 
paying agent code number assigned by designated Federal Reserve Bank.)


This endorsement must be legibly impressed in black or other dark-
colored ink on the back of the security in the space provided for the 
owner to request payment.
    (b) Endorsement stamps. Endorsement stamps may be obtained from the 
designated Federal Reserve Bank or, with its approval, purchased by the 
agent. Requests for stamps to be furnished or approved by the Bank must 
be made in writing by an officer of the paying agent. Stamps procured by 
an agent may not exceed a space bounded by 1\3/4\ inches vertically and 
3 inches horizontally. They must follow exactly the wording prescribed. 
They may also include space for the transaction date and the initials or 
signature of the officer or employee authorized to approve the 
transaction.
    (c) Securities registered in coownership or beneficiary form. In the 
case of securities registered in coownership or beneficiary form, the 
agent shall indicate which person, whose name is inscribed thereon, 
requested payment or exchange by encircling in black or other dark-
colored ink the name of that person (or both coowners, if the request is 
joint) in the inscription on the face of the securities.
    (d) Restrictions. Under no circumstances shall the special 
endorsement procedure be used to give effect to a transfer, 
hypothecation or pledge of a security, or to permit payment to any 
person other than the owner, coowner, or, where appropriate, 
beneficiary. Violation of these provisions will be cause for withdrawal 
of an agent's authority to process securities under the special 
endorsement procedure, and may involve additional penalties if the 
circumstances warrant such action.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.4  Guaranty given to the United States.

    By the act of paying or presenting to a designated Federal Reserve 
Bank, for payment or exchange, a security on

[[Page 213]]

which it has affixed the special endorsement, a payment agent shall be 
deemed to have:
    (a) Unconditionally guaranteed to the United States the validity of 
the transaction, including the identification of the owner and the 
disposition of the proceeds or the new bonds, as the case may be, in 
accordance with the presenter's instruction;
    (b) Assumed complete and unconditional liability to the United 
States for any loss which may be incurred by the United States as a 
result of the transaction; and
    (c) Unconditionally agreed to make prompt reimbursement for the 
amount of any loss, upon request of the Department of the Treasury.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.5  Evidence of owner's or beneficiary's authorization to affix special endorsement.

    (a) Form of authorization. The Treasury does not prescribe the form 
or type of instructions an agent must obtain from each owner, coowner or 
beneficiary in order to use the special endorsement procedure. In the 
case of a redemption-exchange, the owner, coowner or beneficiary 
authorized to request the exhange (as specified in Circular No. 750, 
Sec. 321.8(b)), must sign the exchange subscription even though the 
securities are specially endorsed.
    (b) Securities in coownership or beneficiary form. Securities 
registered in coownership or beneficiary form should be accepted for 
special endorsement only for immediate payment or exchange. Acceptance 
of bonds and notes for processing at some future date should be avoided 
as authority to utilize such endorsement generally expires upon the 
death of the owner or coowner on whose behalf securities were to be 
paid. Requests for payment of securities present by the surviving 
beneficiary must be supported by a certificate of death for the owner 
named thereon, as required by Circular No. 750, part 321 and the 
appendix to that part.
    (c) Record of authorization. Agents should maintain such records as 
may be necessary to establish the receipt of, and compliance with, 
instructions supporting the special endorsement. If the agent elects to 
make notations on the backs of the securities to serve as a record, the 
Bureau of the Public Debt will undertake to produce, on request, 
photocopies of such securities at any time up to ten years after the 
redemption date. However, the Bureau does not not assume responsibility 
for the adequacy of such notations, for the legibility of any photocopy, 
or for failure to produce a photocopy from its records.



Sec. 330.6  Securities eligible for special endorsement.

    (a) General authority. A qualified agent is authorized to affix the 
special endorsement to:
    (1) Savings bonds of Series A, B, C, D, E, and EE and savings notes 
to be redeemed for cash, and
    (2) Eligible savings bonds of Series E and EE and savings notes to 
be redeemed in exchange for Series HH bonds under the provisions of 
Circular No. 2-80 (31 CFR part 352).
    (b) Securities which may not be specially endorsed. The special 
endorsement procedure may not be used in any case in which payment or 
exchange:
    (1) Is requested by a parent on behalf of a minor child named on the 
security, or
    (2) Requires documentary evidence, under regulations contained in 
Circulars Nos. 530 and 3-80 (31 CFR parts 315 and 353, respectively), 
except as indicated in Sec. 330.5.
    (c) Securities owned by nonresident aliens. As securities owned by a 
nonresident alien individual, or a nonresident foreign corporation, 
partnership, or association, may be subject to the nonresident alien 
withholding tax, bonds and notes held or received by an agent for the 
account of such owners must be forwarded to the designated Federal 
Reserve Bank for redemption, even though the agent may specially endorse 
the securities.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.7  Payment or redemption--exchange by agent.

    Specially endorsed securities may be paid in cash or redeemed in 
exchange

[[Page 214]]

for Series HH bonds pursuant to the authority and subject, in all other 
respects, to the provisions of Circular No. 750, current revision, its 
appendix, and any other instructions issued under its authority. Each 
specially endorsed bond or note paid by an agent must have the agent's 
payment stamp imprinted on its face and show the date and amount paid. 
Securities so paid should be combined with other securities paid under 
that Circular and presented for settlement through EZ CLEAR. Securities 
redeemed by an agent in an exchange must be presented for settlement 
through EZ CLEAR separately from, but at the same times as, an exchange 
subscription and any remittance are forwarded to the Fiscal Agency 
Department of the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988; 53 FR 39404, Oct. 6, 1988, as amended at 
59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.8  Payment or redemption--exchange by Federal Reserve Bank.

    Specially endorsed securities which an agent is not authorized to 
redeem for cash or on exchange should be forwarded to the Fiscal Agency 
Department of the designated Federal Reserve Bank. The transmittals must 
be accompanied by appropriate instructions governing the transaction and 
the disposition of the redemption checks or new bonds, as the case may 
be. The securities must be kept separate from others the agent has paid 
and must be submitted in accordance with instructions, issued by the 
Bank.
[53 FR 37519, Sept. 26, 1988, as amended at 59 FR 10539, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 330.9  Fiscal agents.

    (a) The Federal Reserve Banks referred to below, as fiscal agents of 
the United States, are authorized to perform such services as may be 
requested by the Secretary of the Treasury, or his or her delegate, in

imprinted validated indicia on the bond. The face of each bond was to be 
inscribed as set forth below:
    (1) The name, social security account number and address of the 
owner, and the name of the beneficiary, if any, or the name, social

    (2) The issue date in the upper right-hand portion of the bond; and
    (3) The imprint of the agent's validation indicia in the lower

    Series H bonds are subject to the regulations of the Department of 
the Treasury, now or hereafter prescribed, governing United States 
Savings bonds of Series A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J and K, contained in 31 
CFR part 315, also published as Department of the Treasury Circular No.

Sec. 332.5  Limitation on holdings.

    The amount of Series H bonds, originally issued during any one

[[Page 216]]

Department of the Treasury were authorized to issue Series H bonds. 
However, financial institutions were permitted to forward applications 
for purchase of the bonds to the Federal Reserve Bank of their district. 
The date of receipt, by the Reserve Bank or the Department of the 
Treasury, of the application and payment governed the issue date of the 
bond purchased.
    (b) Application for purchase and remittance. (1) The applicant for

    (2) The application was to be forwarded to a Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch, or the Department of the Treasury, accompanied by a remittance 
to cover the purchase price. Any form of exchange, including personal 
checks, was acceptable, subject to collection. Checks or other forms of 
exchange were to be drawn to the order of the Federal Reserve Bank or 
the United States Treasury. Checks payable by endorsement were not 
acceptable. Any depositary qualified pursuant to 31 CFR part 203, also

made more than one month preceding the interest payment date will not be 
accepted.

Sec. 337.0  Scope of regulations.

    The United States Department of the Treasury is the agent of the 
Federal Housing Administration for transactions in any debentures which 
have been or may be issued pursuant to the authority conferred by the 
National Housing Act (48 Stat. 1246), as amended; (12 U.S.C. 1701 et 
seq.), as amended from time to time, including Mutual Mortgage Insurance 
Fund Debentures, Housing Insurance Fund Debentures, War Housing 
Insurance Fund Debentures, Military Housing Insurance Fund Debentures, 
and National Defense Housing Insurance Fund Debentures. In accordance 
with the regulations adopted by the Federal Housing Commissioner and 
approved by the Secretary of the Treasury, such transactions are 
governed by regulations of the Department of the Treasury, so far as 
applicable.



                   Subpart A--Certificated Debentures



Sec. 337.1  Applicability of Treasury regulations.

    The general regulations governing United States securities, part 306 
of this chapter, apply, as the regulations for similar transactions and 
operations in certificated debentures. To the extent that the provisions 
in this part

[[Page 219]]

differ from the provisions in part 306, the provisions in this part 
shall prevail.



Sec. 337.2  Transportation charges and risks.

    Debentures presented for redemption at call or maturity, or for 
authorized prior purchase, or for conversion to book-entry form, must be 
delivered at the expense and risk of the holder. Debentures bearing 
restricted assignments may be forwarded by registered mail, but for the 
owner's protection debentures bearing unrestricted assignments should be 
forwarded by insured registered mail. Debentures should be delivered to 
the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, Securities Division, Ten 
Independence Mall, P.O. Box 90, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19105-0090. 
Debentures delivered to any other Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, to the 
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), or to the Bureau of 
the Public Debt will be forwarded to the Federal Reserve Bank of 
Philadelphia for processing.



Sec. 337.3  Termination of transfers and denominational exchange transactions.

    Debentures, which by their terms are subject to call, may be called 
for redemption, in whole or in part, at par and accrued interest, on any 
interest date on three months' notice. No transfers or denominational 
exchanges in certificated debentures covered by a given call will be 
made on the books of the Department of the Treasury on or after the 
announcement of such call. However, this does not affect the right of a 
holder of such debenture to sell and assign it on or after the 
announcement of the call date.



Sec. 337.4  Presentation and surrender.

    (a) For redemption. To facilitate the redemption of called or 
maturing debentures, they may be presented and surrendered in the manner 
prescribed in this section in advance of the call or maturity date, as 
the case may be. Early presentation by holders will insure prompt 
payment of principal and interest when due. The debentures must first be 
assigned by the registered payee or his assignee, or by his duly 
constituted representative, if required, in the form and manner 
indicated in Sec. 337.5, and should then be submitted to the Federal 
Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, accompanied by appropriate written advice. 
A transmittal advice for this purpose will accompany the notice of call.
    (b) For purchase. Debentures, the purchase of which has been 
authorized prior to call or maturity, may be assigned as instructed in 
paragraph (a) of this section and immediately submitted in accordance 
with procedures prescribed by HUD for this purpose.



Sec. 337.5  Assignments.

    (a) If the registered payee, or an assignee holding a certificated 
debenture under proper assignment from the registered payee, desires 
that payment be made to such payee or assignee, the debenture need not 
be assigned. If the owner desires for any reason that payment be made to 
another, without intermediate assignment, the debentures should be 
assigned to ``The Federal Housing Commissioner for redemption (or, 
purchase) for the account of ________,'' inserting the name and address 
of the person to whom payment is to be made. Proof of the authority of 
the individual assigning on behalf of an owner will be required in 
accordance with part 306 of this chapter.
    (b) An assignment in blank or other assignment having similar effect 
will be recognized, but in that event the debenture would be, in effect, 
payable to bearer, and payment will be made in accordance with the 
instructions received from the person surrendering the debenture for 
redemption or purchase. For the owner's protection, such assignments 
should be avoided unless the owner is willing to lose the protection 
afforded by registration.
    (c) Debentures submitted for conversion to book-entry form should be 
assigned to ``The Federal Housing Commissioner for conversion to book-
entry debentures for the account of ________.'' The registration on the 
book-entry account and/or the account number in which the debentures 
should be deposited should be indicated.

[[Page 220]]

    (d) All assignments must be made on the debentures themselves unless 
otherwise authorized by the Department of Treasury.



Sec. 337.6  Conversions to book-entry.

    Upon implementation of the book-entry debenture system, to be 
announced in advance by separate public notice, all new debentures will 
be issued only in book-entry form, and may not thereafter be converted 
to certificated form.
    Certificated debentures may, upon the owner's request in accordance 
with Sec. 337.5(c), be converted to book-entry. If such action is taken, 
the owner shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived the right to hold 
such debenture in certificated form.



Sec. 337.7  Servicing transactions.

    Upon implementation of the book-entry debenture system, to be 
announced in advance by separate public notice, any transfer or 
denominational exchange of certificated debentures generally will be 
made in book-entry form. If certificated debentures are desired, the 
owner should so request in writing, before the book-entry debentures are 
issued.



Sec. 337.8  Payment of mortgage insurance premiums.

    When certificated debentures are tendered for purchase prior to 
maturity in order that the proceeds thereof be applied to pay for 
mortgage insurance premiums, any difference between the amount of the 
debentures purchased and the amount of the mortgage insurance premium 
will generally be issued to the owner in the form of a book-entry 
debenture in the exact amount of such difference, provided it is one 
dollar ($1.00) or more. However, if the owner so requests, such 
difference will be settled with certificated debenture(s), together with 
a cash adjustment, if any. Such request should be made in writing, 
before the book-entry debenture in the amount of the difference is 
issued.



Sec. 337.9  Payment of final interest.

    Final interest on any debenture, whether purchased prior to or 
redeemed on or after the call or the maturity date, will be paid with 
the principal. In all cases the payment of principal and final interest 
will be mailed or directed to the payment address given in the form of 
advice accompanying the debenture surrendered.



Sec. 337.10  Payments.

    Payments on certificated debentures will be made by fiscal agency 
check in accordance with part 355 of this chapter, or, upon request, by 
direct deposit (electronic funds transfer) in accordance with part 370 
of this chapter. Information as to the deposit account at the financial 
institution designated to receive a direct deposit payment shall be 
provided on the appropriate form(s) designated by the Department.



                    Subpart B--Book-Entry Debentures



Sec. 337.11  Original issue and conversions.

    Upon implementation of the book-entry debenture system, to be 
announced in advance by separate public notice, all new debentures will 
be issued only in book-entry form in the exact amount payable to the 
owner. Once issued in book-entry form, a debenture may not be converted 
to certificated form.



Sec. 337.12  Applicability of TREASURY DIRECT regulations.

    The regulations governing the TREASURY DIRECT Book-Entry Securities 
System (TREASURY DIRECT) (part 357 of this chapter) apply to govern 
transactions in FHA book-entry debentures, with the following 
exceptions:
    (a) Securities account. (See Sec. 357.20 of this chapter.) An 
account in the book-entry debenture system may be established by the 
Department of the Treasury upon receipt of the request that a new 
debenture be issued or that a certificated debenture be converted to 
book-entry form. The statement of account shall contain information 
regarding the account as of the date of such statement. It will include 
a unique account number, but will not include price information.
    (b) Transfers. (See Sec. 357.22 of this chapter.) A book-entry 
debenture may be transferred only between accounts

[[Page 221]]

established in the FHA book-entry debenture system.
    (c) Debentures announced for call. Debentures, which by their terms 
are subject to call, may be called for redemption, in whole or in part, 
at par and accrued interest, on any interest date on three months' 
notice. For purposes of a transaction request affecting ownership and/or 
payment instructions with respect to a debenture announced for call, a 
proper request must be received not less than twenty (20) calendar days 
preceding the next payment date. If the twentieth day preceding a 
payment date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or a Federal holiday, the last 
day set for the receipt of a transaction request will be the last 
business day preceding that date. If a transaction request is received 
less than twenty (20) calendar days preceding a payment date, the 
Department may, in its discretion, act on such request if sufficient 
time remains for processing. If a transaction request is received too 
late for completion of the requested transaction, principal and final 
interest on the called debentures will be paid to the owner of record 
and sent to the payment address of record.
    (d) Payments. (See Sec. 357.26 of this chapter.) Direct deposit 
(electronic funds transfer) payments with respect to debentures, e.g., 
principal, interest and cash adjustments, will be made without 
prenotification messages.



Sec. 337.13  Payment of mortgage insurance premiums.

    When book-entry debentures are being purchased prior to maturity to 
pay for mortgage insurance premiums, the difference between the amount 
of the debentures purchased and the mortgage insurance premiums shall be 
issued to the owner in the form of a book-entry debenture in the exact 
amount of such difference, provided it is one dollar ($1.00) or more.



                    Subpart C--Additional Information



Sec. 337.14  Address for further information.

    Further information regarding the issuance of, transactions in, and 
redemption of, FHA debentures may be obtained from the Federal Reserve 
Bank of Philadelphia, Securities Division, Ten Independence Mall, P.O. 
Box 90, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19105-0090, or from the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Division of Special Investments, 200 Third Street, P.O. Box 
396, Parkersburg, West Virginia 26102-0396.



Sec. 337.15  General provisions.

    As fiscal agents of the United States, Federal Reserve Banks are 
authorized and requested to perform any necessary acts under this part. 
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia is specifically authorized to 
operate the FHA debenture computer system and to perform day-to-day 
operations and transactions relating to the debentures. The Secretary of 
the Treasury may at any time or from time to time prescribe supplemental 
and amendatory regulations governing the matters covered by this part, 
notice of which shall be communicated promptly to the registered owners 
of the debentures.

Sec. 339.0  Offering of Series H bonds in exchange for Series E bonds and savings notes.

    The Secretary of the Treasury, pursuant to the authority of the 
Second Liberty Bond Act, as amended, hereby offers to the people of the 
United

[[Page 222]]

States, U.S. Savings Bonds of Series H in exchange for outstanding U.S. 
Savings Bonds of Series E and U.S. Savings Notes (freedom shares) 
without regard to the annual limitation on holdings for the Series H 
bonds. The Series H bonds offered hereunder are those described in 
Department Circular No. 905, current revision, except as otherwise 
specifically provided herein. This offering will continue until 
terminated by the Secretary of the Treasury.

    Editorial Note: The sale of U.S. Savings Bonds, Series H, was 
terminated at the close of business Dec. 31, 1979. See 44 FR 77158, Dec. 
31, 1979.



Sec. 339.1  Definitions of words and terms as used in this circular.

    Unless the context otherwise requires or indicates:
    (a) Securities mean outstanding U.S. Savings Bonds of Series E and 
U.S. Savings Notes (freedom shares).
    (b) Owner means an owner of securities, except a commercial bank in 
its own right (as distinguished from a representative or fiduciary 
capacity) and a nonresident alien who is a resident of an area with 
respect to which the Treasury Department restricts or regulates delivery 
of checks drawn against funds of the United States or any agency or 
instrumentality thereof. The term includes a registered owner, whether 
or not a natural person, either coowner (but only the principal coowner 
if Series H bonds are requested in a form of registration different from 
that on the securities submitted), a surviving beneficiary, or any other 
person who would be entitled to reissue under the regulation governing 
U.S. Savings Bonds,1 such as, but not limited to, any person 
entitled to succeed to the estate of a deceased owner.

    1  Department Circular No. 530, current revision (31 CFR 
part 315). Copies may be obtained from any Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, DC 20220.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (c) Commercial bank means a bank accepting demand deposits.
    (d) Interest means the increment in value on Series E savings bonds 
and on savings notes.
    (e) Principal coowner means a coowner who purchased the securities 
submitted for exchange with his own funds or received them as a gift, 
legacy or inheritance or as a result of judicial proceedings and had 
them reissued in coownership form, provided he has received no 
contribution in money or money's worth from the other coowner for 
designating him on the securities.



Sec. 339.2  Denominations.

    Series H bonds, available for use hereunder, are in denominations of 
$500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000.



Sec. 339.3  Exchanges with privilege of deferring reporting of interest for Federal income tax purposes.

    (a) Tax-deferred exchanges. Pursuant to the provisions of section 
1037(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, the Secretary of the 
Treasury hereby grants to owners who have not been reporting the 
interest on their securities on an accrual basis for Federal income tax 
purposes the privilege of exchanging such securities for Series H bonds 
and of continuing to defer reporting of the interest on the securities 
exchanged (except interest referred to in paragraph (b)(5) of this 
section) for Federal income tax purposes to the taxable year in which 
the Series H bonds received in exchange are disposed of, are redeemed, 
or have reached final maturity, whichever is earlier.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2 The interest paid semiannually by check on all Series H 
bonds, whether issued in exchange under this or any other section, or 
otherwise, is subject to the Federal income tax for the taxable year in 
which it is received.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) Rules governing the exchange. (1) Exchange subscription Form PD 
3253, completed and executed in accordance with the instructions 
thereon, the securities, any cash difference (see paragraph (b)(3) of 
this section), and any supporting evidence which may be required under 
the governing regulations 3 may be presented or forwarded to 
any authorized agency.4
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3 For example, a beneficiary named on Series E bonds would 
have to submit proof of the death of the registered owner in order to 
exchange such bonds for Series H bonds.
    4 Agents authorized to pay Series E bonds and savings 
notes are authorized to accept and handle exchange subscriptions 
submitted by natural persons whose names are inscribed on the face of 
the bonds and notes as owners or coowners in their own right. However, 
as agents of subscribers they may forward any exchange subscription to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Washington, DC 20226, for acceptance and handling.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 223]]

    (2) A Series H bond issued upon exchange will be registered in the 
name of the owner of the securities submitted in any authorized form of 
registration. However, the principal coowner must be named as owner or 
coowner.
    (3) The total current redemption value of the securities submitted 
for exchange in any one transaction must amount to $500 or more. If the 
total current redemption value is in an even multiple of $500, Series H 
bonds must be requested in that exact amount. If the total current 
redemption value exceeds $500, but is not in an even multiple of $500, 
the owner has the option of furnishing cash necessary to obtain Series H 
bonds of the next higher $500 multiple, or of receiving payment of the 
difference between the total current redemption value and the next lower 
multiple of $500. For example, under the rules prescribed in this 
circular, if the securities submitted for exchange in one transaction 
total $4,253.33 current redemption value, the owner may elect to:
    (i) Receive $4,000 in Series H bonds and the amount of the 
difference, $253.33, or
    (ii) Pay the difference, $246.67, necessary to obtain $4,500 in 
Series H bonds.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    5 If a paying agent accepts a subscription solely for the 
purpose of forwarding it, or if the owner forwards it direct, to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt, the 
remittance for the difference, by check or other form of exchange (which 
will be accepted subject to collection), must be drawn to the order of 
the Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury, as the case may 
be. The remittance must accompany the subscription and the securities to 
be exchanged.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (4) Any amount paid to the owner as a cash adjustment (as in 
paragraph (3)(i) of this section) must be treated as income for Federal 
income tax purposes for the year in which it is received up to an amount 
not in excess of the total interest on the securities exchanged.6
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    6 The amount, if any, paid to the owner in excess of the 
interest is a repayment on account of the purchase price of the 
securities exchanged, not income.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (5) Each Series H bond issued under this section will be stamped 
``EX'' or ``EXCH'' to show that it was issued upon exchange. Each bond 
also will bear a legend showing how much of its issue price represents 
interest on the securities exchanged. This interest must be treated as 
income for Federal income tax purposes for the year in which the Series 
H bond is redeemed, is disposed of, or finally matures, whichever is 
earlier.
    (6) The Series H bonds will be dated as of the first day of the 
month in which the securities, the exchange subscription, any necessary 
cash difference and supporting evidence, if any, are accepted for 
exchange by an authorized agency.



Sec. 339.4  Exchanges without tax deferral.

    Exchanges by owners who:
    (a) Report the interest on all of their securities annually for 
Federal income tax purposes, or
    (b) Who elect to report all such interest in the year of the 
exchange, or
    (c) Who are tax-exempt under the provisions of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1954 and the regulations issued thereunder,

Will be handled in the same manner and will be governed by the rules 
prescribed for exchanges under Sec. 339.3. However, the Series H bonds 
will not bear the legend referred to in Sec. 339.3(b)(5). Any part of 
the cash adjustment received which represents interest previously 
reported for Federal income tax purposes need not be accounted for. The 
Series H bonds may be registered in the name of the owner of the 
securities submitted in exchange in any authorized form of registration.



Sec. 339.5  Governing regulations.

    All Series H bonds issued under this circular are subject to the 
regulations, now or hereafter prescribed, contained in Department 
Circular No. 530, current revision (part 315 of this chapter).

[[Page 224]]



Sec. 339.6  Fiscal agents.

    Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, as fiscal agents of the United 
States, are authorized to perform such services as may be requested of 
them in connection with exchanges under these regulations.



Sec. 339.7  Preservation of rights.

    The provisions of Treasury Department Circulars Nos. 530, 653, and 
905, as currently revised, are hereby modified and amended to the extent 
that they are not in accordance with this circular. However, nothing 
contained herein shall limit or restrict rights which owners of Series H 
bonds received in earlier exchanges have heretofore acquired.



Sec. 339.8  Reservation as to terms of offer.

    The Secretary of the Treasury reserves the right to reject any 
exchange subscription for Series H bonds, in whole or in part, and to 
refuse to issue or permit to be issued hereunder any such bonds in any 
case or any class or classes of cases if he deems such action to be in 
the public interest, and his action in any such respect shall be final.
    The foregoing revision and amendment is made for the purpose of 
granting to owners of savings notes the same privilege afforded owners 
of Series E savings bonds for exchanging their securities for Series H 
bonds with or without tax deferral. As good cause exists for making this 
change, which involves public property and contracts relating to the 
fiscal and monetary affairs of the United States, I find that notice and 
public procedures are unnecessary. This action is effected under the 
provisions of sections 18, 20, and 22 of the Second Liberty Bond Act, as 
amended (40 Stat. 1309, 48 Stat. 343, 49 Stat. 21, 73 Stat. 621, all as 
amended; 31 U.S.C. 753, 754b, 757c), and 5 U.S.C. 301.

they may be modified in the public notice or notices issued by the 
Secretary in connection with particular offerings.1 The bonds

Treasury Department, now or hereafter prescribed, governing United 
States securities. They will be issued pursuant to the authority of the 
Second Liberty Bond Act, as amended.

    1 These regulations do not apply to Treasury bills, which 
are governed by Department Circular No. 418, Revised, and do not 
constitute a specific offering of bonds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) The terms public notice, notices, or announcement as used in

and any supplementary or amendatory notices or announcements with 
respect thereto, including, but not limited to any statement released to 
the press by the Secretary of the Treasury and notices sent to those who 
have filed notices of intent to bid or who have filed bids.

[[Page 225]]



Sec. 340.1  Public notice--description of bonds--terms of offer.

    When bonds are offered for sale through competitive bidding, bids 
therefor will be invited through the form of a public notice or notices 
issued by the Secretary of the Treasury. The notice or notices will 
either fix the coupon rate of interest to be borne by the bonds or 
prescribe the conditions under which bidders may specify the rate and 
will set forth the terms and conditions of the bonds, including 
maturities, call features, if any, and the terms and conditions of the 
offer, including the amount of the issue for which bids are invited, the 
date and closing hour for receipt of bids, and the date on which the 
bonds will be delivered and payment for any accepted bid must be 
completed. When so specified in the public notice, it shall be a 
condition of each bid that, if accepted by the Secretary of the 
Treasury, the bidder will make a bona fide reoffering to the investing 
public.



Sec. 340.2  Denominations and exchanges.

    Bearer bonds with interest coupons attached, and bonds registered as 
to principal and interest, will be available in denominations of $500, 
$1,000, $5,000, $10,000, $100,000, and $1,000,000. Provisions will be 
made for the interchange of bonds of different denominations and of 
bearer and registered bonds, and for the transfer of registered bonds.



Sec. 340.3  Taxation.

    The income derived from the bonds will be subject to all taxes 
imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The bonds will be 
subject to estate, inheritance, gift or other excise taxes, whether 
Federal or State, but will be exempt from all taxation now or hereafter 
imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any State, or any of the 
possessions of the United States, or by any local taxing authority.



Sec. 340.4  Acceptance as security for public deposits.

    The bonds will be acceptable to secure deposits of public moneys.



Sec. 340.5  Notice of intent to bid.

    Any individual, or organization, syndicate, or other group which 
intends to submit a bid, must, when required by the public notice, give 
written notice of such intent on Form PD 3555 at the place and within 
the time specified in the public notice. The filing of such notice will 
not constitute a commitment to bid.



Sec. 340.6  Submission of bids.

    (a) General. Bids will be received only at the place specified and 
not later than the time designated in the public notice. Each bid must 
be submitted on the official form referred to in the public notice and 
should be enclosed and sealed in the special envelope provided by the 
Treasury Department. Forms and envelopes may be obtained from any 
Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220. Bids shall be irrevocable.
    (b) Bidding. Bids, except noncompetitive bids when authorized, must

notice, will be made in a supplemental announcement. The public notice 
will indicate the timing of any such announcement. If the bidders are 
required to specify the coupon rate, each bidder shall specify a single 
coupon rate of interest, which shall be a multiple of \1/8\ of 1 percent 
but not in excess of 4\1/4\ percent. The Secretary of the Treasury may 
limit the premium above or the discount below par.
    (c) Group bids. A syndicate or other group submitting a bid must act 
through a representative who must be a member of the group. The 
representative must warrant to the Secretary of the Treasury that he has 
all necessary power and authority to act for each member and to bind the 
members jointly and severally. In addition to whatever other data may be 
required by the Secretary of the Treasury, in the case of a syndicate, 
the representative must file, within one hour after the time for opening 
of bids, at the place specified in the public notice for receipt of bids 
a final statement of the composition of the syndicate membership and the 
amount of each member's underwriting participation.

[[Page 226]]



Sec. 340.7  Deposits--retention--return.

    Each bid must be accompanied by a deposit in the amount specified in 
the public notice. The deposit of any successful bidder will be retained 
as security for the performance of his obligation and will be applied 
toward payment of the bonds. All other deposits will be returned 
immediately. No interest will be allowed on account of any deposits.



Sec. 340.8  Acceptance of bids.

    (a) Opening of bids. Bids will be opened at the time and place 
specified in the public notice.
    (b) Method of determining accepted bids. The lowest basis cost of 
money 2 computed from the date of the bonds to the date of 
maturity will be used in determining successful bids.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2 In cases where bidders are required to specify the 
coupon rate, the lowest basis cost of money will be determined by 
reference to a specially prepared table of bond yields, a copy of which 
will be made available to all prospective bidders upon written request 
to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220. Straightline 
interpolation will be applied if necessary.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (c) Acceptance of successful bid. The Secretary of the Treasury, or 
his representative, will notify any successful bidder of acceptance in 
the manner and form specified in the public notice.



Sec. 340.9  Bids--revocations--rejections-- postponements--reoffers.

    The Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, may (a) revoke the 
public notice of invitation to bid at any time before opening bids, (b) 
return all bids unopened either at or prior to the time specified for 
their opening, (c) reject any or all bids, (d) postpone the time for 
presentation and opening of bids, and (e) waive any immaterial or 
obvious defect in any bid. Any action the Secretary of the Treasury may 
take in these respects shall be final. In the event of a postponement, 
known bidders will be advised thereof and their bids returned unopened.



Sec. 340.10  Payment for and delivery of bonds.

    Payment for the bonds, including accrued interest, if any, must be 
made in immediately available funds on the date and at the place 
specified in the invitation. Delivery of bonds under this section will 
be made at the risk and expense of the United States at such place or 
places in the United States as may be provided in the invitation. 
Interim receipts, if necessary, will be issued pending delivery of the 
definitive bonds.



Sec. 340.11  Failure to complete transaction.

    If any successful bidder shall fail to pay in full for the bonds on 
the date and at the place specified in the invitation, the money 
deposited by or in behalf of such bidder shall be forfeited to the 
Treasury Department.



Sec. 340.12  Reservations as to terms of circular.

    The Secretary of the Treasury reserves the right, at any time, or 
from time to time, to amend, repeal, supplement, revise or withdraw all 
or any of the provisions of this part.

Sec. 341.0  Offering of bonds.

    The Secretary of the Treasury, under the authority of the Second 
Liberty Bond Act, as amended, and pursuant to the Self-Employed 
Individuals Tax Retirement Act of 1962, offers for sale, effective as of 
January 1, 1963, bonds of the United States, designated as United States 
Retirement Plan Bonds. The bonds will be available for investment only 
to:
    (a) Bond purchase plans and
    (b) Pension and profit-sharing plans, as described in sections 405 
and 401, respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954.

This offering of bonds will terminate on April 30, 1982.
[28 FR 405, Jan. 16, 1963, as amended at 47 FR 18596, Apr. 30, 1982]



Sec. 341.1  Description of bonds.

    (a) Investment yield (interest). United States Retirement Plan 
Bonds, hereinafter sometimes referred to as Retirement Plan Bonds, will 
be issued at par. The investment yields (interest) are as follows:
    (1) Bonds with issue dates of January 1, 1963, through May 1, 1966--
3.75 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table of Redemption 
Values in the appendix).
    (2) Bonds with issue dates of June 1, 1966, through December 1, 
1969--4.15 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table A in 
the appendix).
    (3) Bonds with issue dates of January 1, 1970, through January 1, 
1974--5 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table B).
    (4) Bonds with issue dates of February 1, 1974, through July 1, 
1979--6 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table C).
    (5) Bonds with issue dates of August 1, 1979, through October 1, 
1980--6.5 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table D).
    (6) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1980, through September 1, 
1981--8 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table E).
    (7) Bonds with issue dates of October 1, 1981, or thereafter--9 
percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table F).

Interest will be paid only upon redemption of the bonds. The accrual of 
interest will continue until the bonds are redeemed or have reached 
maturity, whichever is earlier, in accordance with these regulations.
    (b) Term. The maturity date of any bond issued under this circular 
shall be indeterminate, but unless sooner redeemed in accordance with 
the regulations in this part, its investment yield will cease on the 
interest accrual date coinciding with, or, where no such coincidence 
occurs, the interest accrual date next preceding, the first day of the 
sixtieth (60th) month following the date of death of the person in whose 
name it is registered.
    (c) Denominations--issue date. Retirement Plan Bonds will be 
available only in registered form and in denominations of $50, $100, 
$500, and $1,000. At the time of issue, the issuing agent will enter in 
the upper right-hand portion of the bond the issue date (which shall be 
the first day of the month and year in which payment of the purchase 
price is received by an authorized issuing agent), and will imprint the 
agent's validating stamp in the lower right-hand portion. The issue 
date, as distinguished from the date in the agent's validating stamp, 
will determine the date from which interest will begin to accrue on the 
bond. A Retirement Plan Bond shall be valid only if an authorized 
issuing agent receives payment therefor, duly inscribes, dates, stamps, 
and delivers it.
[28 FR 405, Jan. 16, 1963, as amended at 46 FR 60573, Dec. 11, 1981]



Sec. 341.2  Registration.

    (a) General. The registration of Retirement Plan Bonds is limited to 
the names of natural persons in their own right, whether adults or 
minors, in either single ownership or beneficiary form. A bond 
registered in beneficiary form will be inscribed substantially as 
follows (for example): ``John A. Doe payable on death to (or P.O.D.) 
Richard B. Roe,'' No more than one beneficiary may be designated on a 
bond.

[[Page 228]]

    (b) Inscription. The inscription on the face of each bond will show 
the name, address, date of birth, and the social security account number 
of the registered owner, as well as information as to whether he is a 
self-employed individual or an employee, and the amount he contributed 
(if any) out of his own funds toward the purchase price of the bond. In 
the case of any self-employed individual (who is treated as an employee 
for the purpose of sections 405 and 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 
1954), this amount would be that portion of the purchase price he 
contributed (if any) as an employee and which he will not take into 
account in determining the amount deductible for Federal income tax 
purposes. The name of the beneficiary, if one is to be designated, will 
also be shown in the inscription.



Sec. 341.3  Purchase of bonds.

    (a) Agencies. Retirement Plan Bonds may be purchased over-the-
counter or by mail from Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, DC 20226. Customers of commercial 
banks and trust companies may be able to arrange for the purchase of the 
bonds through such institutions, but only the Federal Reserve Banks and 
Branches and the Bureau of the Public Debt are authorized to act as 
official agencies, and the date of receipt of the application and 
payment by an official agency will govern the dating of the bonds 
issued.
    (b) Application. Applications for the purchase of Retirement Plan 
Bonds should be made on Form PD 3550, accompanied by a remittance to 
cover the purchase price. Personal checks will be accepted, subject to 
collection. Checks or other forms of exchange, should be drawn to the 
Federal Reserve Bank or United States Treasury, as the case may be. 
Checks payable by endorsement are not acceptable.
    (c) Delivery. Delivery of bonds will be made in person, or by mail 
at the risk and expense of the United States, at the address given by 
the purchaser, but only within the United States, its territories and 
possessions, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Canal Zone. No 
mail deliveries elsewhere will be made. If the registered owner 
temporarily resides abroad, the bonds will be delivered to such address 
in the United States as the purchaser directs.



Sec. 341.4  Proof of purchase.

    At the time a Retirement Plan Bond is issued, the issuing agent will 
furnish therewith to the purchaser, and in cases where the purchaser is 
different from the person in whose name the bond is inscribed, to the 
registered owner as well, proof of the purchase on Form PD 3550. The 
form will show the names and addresses of the purchaser and of the 
registered owner, the latter's date of birth, social security account 
number and his classification (i.e., self-employed individual or 
employee) the number of bonds issued, a description thereof by issue 
date, serial numbers, denominations, and registration, together with 
information as to the amount of his contributions (if any) toward the 
purchase price of the bonds.



Sec. 341.5  Limitation on holdings.

    The limit on the amount of any Retirement Plan Bonds issued during 
1974, or in any one calendar year thereafter, that may be purchased in 
the name of any one person as registered owner is $10,000 (face value).
[39 FR 36114, Oct. 8, 1974]



Sec. 341.6  Nontransferability.

    United States Retirement Plan Bonds are not transferable, and may 
not be sold, discounted or pledged as collateral for a loan or as 
security for the performance of an obligation, or for any other purpose.



Sec. 341.7  Judicial proceedings.

    No judicial determinations will be recognized which would give 
effect to an attempted voluntary transfer inter vivos of a Retirement 
Plan Bond. Otherwise, a claim against a registered owner will be 
recognized when established by valid judicial proceedings, but in no 
case will payment be made to the purchaser at a sale under a levy or to 
the officer authorized to levy upon the property of the owner under 
appropriate process to satisfy a money judgement unless or until the 
bond has

[[Page 229]]

become eligible for redemption pursuant to the regulations in this part. 
Neither the Treasury Department nor any of its agencies will accept 
notices of adverse claims or of pending judicial proceedings or 
undertake to protect the interests of litigants who do not have 
possession of the bond.



Sec. 341.8  Payment or redemption during lifetime of owner.

    (a) At age 59\1/2\ or thereafter. A Retirement Plan Bond will be 
redeemable at its current redemption value upon the request of the 
registered owner (or a person recognized as entitled to act on his 
behalf), provided he is 59\1/2\ years of age or older. The owner's age 
will be determined from the date of birth shown on the face of the bond, 
provided, however, that the Secretary of the Treasury reserves the right 
in any case or class of cases to require proof, in the form of a duly 
certified copy of his birth certificate, that the owner has attained the 
age of 59\1/2\ years. If such evidence is unavailable, one of the 
following documents may be furnished in lieu thereof:
    (1) Church records of birth or baptism.
    (2) Hospital birth record or certificate.
    (3) Physician's or midwife's birth record.
    (4) Certification of Bible or other family record.
    (5) Military, naturalization or immigration records.
    (6) Other evidence of probative value. Similar documentary evidence 
will also be required to support any claim made by an owner that the 
date of birth shown on his bond is incorrect.
    (b) Prior to age 59\1/2\ years. A Retirement Plan Bond will be paid 
at its then current redemption value upon a registered owner's request 
(or by a person recognized as entitled to act on his behalf) prior to 
his attainment of age 59\1/2\ years upon submission of a physician's 
statement or any similar evidence showing that the owner has become 
disabled to such an extent that he is unable to engage in any 
substantial, gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable 
physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death 
or to be of long-continued and indefinite duration. The following are 
examples of impairments which would ordinarily be considered as 
preventing substantial, gainful activity:
    (1) Loss of use of two limbs.
    (2) Certain progressive diseases which have resulted in the physical 
loss or atrophy of a limb, such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis, or 
Buerger's disease.
    (3) Diseases of the heart, lungs, or blood vessels which have 
resulted in major loss of heart or lung reserve as evidenced by X-ray, 
electrocardiogram, or other objective findings, so that despite medical 
treatment breathlessness, pain, or fatigue is produced on slight 
exertion, such as walking several blocks, using public transportation, 
or doing small chores.
    (4) Cancer which is inoperable and progressive.
    (5) Damage to the brain or brain abnormality which has resulted in 
severe loss of judgment, intellect, orientation, or memory.
    (6) Mental diseases (e.g., psychosis or severe psychoneurosis) 
requiring continued institutionalization or constant supervision of the 
individual.
    (7) Loss or diminution of vision to the extent that the affected 
individual has a central visual acuity of no better than 20/200 in the 
better eye after best correction, or has a limitation in the fields of 
vision such that the widest diameter of the visual fields subtends an 
angle no greater than 20 degrees.
    (8) Permanent and total loss of speech.
    (9) Total deafness uncorrectible by a hearing aid.

In any case coming under the provisions of this paragraph, the evidence 
referred to above must be submitted to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Division of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101, for 
approval before any bonds may be paid. If, after review of the evidence, 
the Secretary of the Treasury is satisfied that the owner's disability 
has been established, a letter will be furnished authorizing payment of 
his Retirement Plan Bonds. This letter must be presented each time any 
of the owner's bonds are submitted for payment to a Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt.

[[Page 230]]

    (c) Requests for payment--(1) By owner. When redemption of any 
Retirement Plan Bond is desired by the registered owner under paragraph 
(a) of this section, it should be presented with the request for payment 
on the back of the bond signed and duly certified, to a Federal Reserve 
Bank or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities 
Transactions Branch, Washington, DC 20226, or Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Division of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101. If payment 
is requested under paragraph (b) of this section, the letter described 
therein should accompany the bond.
    (2) By person other than owner. When redemption of any Retirement 
Plan Bond is desired by the legal guardian, committee conservator, or 
similar representative of the owner's estate under paragraph (a) of this 
section, it should be presented, with the request signed as described 
below, to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau of the 
Public Debt. If payment is requested under paragraph (b) of this 
section, the letter described therein should accompany the bond.1 
The request for payment, in either case, should be signed by the 
representative in his fiduciary capacity before an authorized certifying 
officer, and must be supported by a certificate or a certified copy of 
the letters of the appointment from the court making the appointment, 
under seal, or other proof of qualification if the appointment was not 
made by a court. Except in the case of corporate fiduciaries, such 
evidence should state that the appointment is in full force and should 
be dated not more than one year prior to the presentation of the bond 
for payment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    1 In any case in which a legal representative has not 
been appointed for the estate of a registered owner who has attained the 
age of 59\1/2\ years, or who has become disabled, a person seeking 
payment of a bond on the owner's behalf should furnish a complete 
statement of the circumstances to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Division of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101. Appropriate 
instructions will then be furnished.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (d) Partial redemption. A Retirement Plan Bond in a denomination 
greater than $50 (face value) which is otherwise eligible for redemption 
may be redeemed in part, at current redemption value, upon the request 
of the registered owner (or a person recognized as entitled to act on 
his behalf), but only in amounts corresponding to authorized 
denominations. In any case in which partial redemption is desired, 
before the request for payment is signed, the phrase ``to the extent of 
$---- (face value) and reissue of the remainder'' should be appended to 
the request. Upon partial redemption of the bond, the remainder will be 
reissued as of the original issue date. No partial redemption of a bond 
will be made after the death of the owner in whose name it is 
registered.
[28 FR 405, Jan 16, 1963, as amended at 42 FR 21611, Apr. 28, 1977]



Sec. 341.9  Payment or redemption after death of owner.

    (a) Order of precedence where owner not survived by beneficiary. If 
the registered owner of a Retirement Plan Bond dies before it has been 
presented and surrendered for payment, and there is no beneficiary shown 
thereon, or if the designated beneficiary predeceased the owner, the 
bond shall be paid in the following order of precedence:
    (1) To the duly appointed executor or administrator of the estate of 
the owner, who should sign the request for payment on the back of the 
bond in his representative capacity before an authorized certifying 
officer, such request to be supported by a court certificate or a 
certified copy of his letters of appointment, under seal of the court, 
which should show that the appointment is in full force and effect, and 
be dated within six months of its presentation;
    (2) If no legal representative of the deceased registered owner's 
estate has been or will be appointed, to the widow or widower of the 
owner;
    (3) If none of the above, to the child or children of the owner and 
the descendants of deceased children by representation;
    (4) If none of the above, to the parents of the owner, or the 
survivor of them;
    (5) In none of the above, to other next-of-kin of the owner, as 
determined by the laws of the domicile of such owner at the time of his 
death. In any

[[Page 231]]

case coming under the provisions of this paragraph, a duly certified 
copy of the registered owner's death certificate will ordinarily be 
required. Proof of death of the beneficiary, if any, will be required 
where he predeceased the owner. Payment of bonds under paragraph (a)(1) 
of this section will be made by a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or by 
the Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, 
Washington, DC 20226, or Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of 
Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101. Payment of bonds under 
paragraphs (a)(2) to (5) of this section will be made upon receipt of 
applications on Form PD 3565, together with the bonds and supporting 
evidence, by the Bureau of the Public Debt.
    (b) Order of precedence where beneficiary survived owner. If the 
registered owner of a Retirement Plan Bond dies before it has been 
presented and surrendered for payment, and the beneficiary shown thereon 
survived the owner, the bond shall be paid in the following order of 
precedence:
    (1) To the designated beneficiary upon his presentation and 
surrender of the bond with the request for payment signed and duly 
certified, such payment to be made to the exclusion of any other person 
who may have been named beneficiary by the registered owner in a bond 
purchase plan, or under a pension or profit-sharing plan;
    (2) If the designated beneficiary survived the registered owner but 
failed to present the bond for payment during his own lifetime, payment 
will be made in the order of precedence specified in paragraphs (a) (1) 
to (5) of this section to the legal representative, surviving spouse, 
children, parents, or next-of-kin of such beneficiary, and in the manner 
provided therein.

In any case coming under the provisions of this paragraph, a duly 
certified copy of the registered owner's death certificate will 
ordinarily be required. Proof of death of the beneficiary will also be 
required where he survived the owner but failed to present the bond for 
payment during his own lifetime. Payment of a bond to a designated 
beneficiary will be made by Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or by the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, Washington, 
DC 20226, or Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of Transactions and 
Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101.
    (c) Ownership of redemption proceeds. The orders of precedence set 
forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, except in case where 
redemption is made for the account of a registered owner, are for the 
Department's convenience in discharging its obligation on a Retirement 
Plan Bond. The discharge of the obligation in accordance therewith shall 
be final so far as the Department is concerned, but those provisions do 
not otherwise purport to determine ownership of the redemption proceeds 
of a bond.
[28 FR 405, Jan 16, 1963, as amended at 42 FR 21611, Apr. 28, 1977]



Sec. 341.10  Reissue.

    (a) Addition or change of beneficiary. A Retirement Plan Bond will 
be reissued to add a beneficiary in the case of a single ownership bond, 
or to eliminate or substitute a beneficiary in the case of a bond 
registered in beneficiary form upon the owner's request on Form PD 3564. 
No consent will be required to support any reissue transaction from a 
beneficiary whose name is to be removed from the registration of a 
Retirement Plan Bond. If the registered owner dies after the bond has 
been presented and surrendered for reissue, upon receipt of notice 
thereof by the agency to which the request for reissue was submitted, 
such request shall be treated as ineffective, provided the notice of 
death is received by the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, Washington, DC, 20226, 
or Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of Transactions and Rulings, 
Parkersburg, WV 26101, to which the request was sent, in sufficient time 
to withhold delivery, by mail or otherwise, of the reissued bond.
    (b) Error in issue--change of name. Reissue of a Retirement Plan 
Bond will be made where an error in issue has occurred, as well as in 
cases where the owner's name has been changed by marriage, divorce, 
annulment, order of court, or in any other legal manner, upon 
appropriate request supported by satisfactory evidence. Information as

[[Page 232]]

to the procedure to be followed in securing such reissue may be obtained 
from a Federal Reserve Bank or the Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities 
Transactions Branch, Washington, DC 20226, or Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Division of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101.
[28 FR 405, Jan 16, 1963, as amended at 42 FR 21611, Apr. 28, 1977; 42 
FR 57123, Nov. 1, 1977]



Sec. 341.11  Use of power of attorney.

    No designation of an attorney, agent, or other representative to 
request payment or reissue on behalf of the owner, beneficiary, or other 
person entitled under Sec. 341.9, other than as provided in the 
regulations in this part, will be recognized.



Sec. 341.12  Lost, stolen, or destroyed bonds.

    If a Retirement Plan Bond is lost, stolen, or destroyed, a 
substitute may be issued upon identification of the bond and proof of 
its loss, theft, or destruction. A description of the bond by 
denomination, serial number, issue date and registration should be 
furnished at the time the report of loss, theft, or destruction is made. 
Such reports should be sent to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Division 
of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101. Full instructions 
for obtaining substitute bonds will then be given.
[28 FR 405, Jan 16, 1963, as amended at 42 FR 21611, Apr. 28, 1977]



Sec. 341.13  Taxation.

    The tax treatment provided under section 405 of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1954 shall apply to all Retirement Plan Bonds. The bonds are 
subject to estate, inheritance, or other excise taxes whether Federal or 
State, but are exempt from all taxation now or hereafter imposed on the 
principal or interest thereof by any State, municipality, or any local 
taxing authority. Inquiries concerning the application of any Federal 
tax of these bonds should be directed to the District Director of 
Internal Revenue of the taxpayer's district or to the Internal Revenue 
Service, Washington, DC 20224.



Sec. 341.14  Certifying officers.

    Officers authorized to certify requests for payment or for any other 
transaction involving Retirement Plan Bonds include:
    (a) Post offices. Any postmaster, acting postmaster, or inspector-
in-charge, or other post office official or clerk designated for that 
purpose. A post office official or clerk, other than a postmaster, 
acting postmaster, or inspector-in-charge, should certify in the name of 
the postmaster or acting postmaster, followed by his own signature and 
official title. Signatures of these officers should be authenticated by 
a legible imprint of the post office dating stamp.
    (b) Banks and trust companies. Any officer of a Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch, or of a bank or trust company chartered under the laws of the 
United States or those of any State, Commonwealth, or Territory of the 
United States, as well as any employees of such bank or trust company 
expressly authorized to act for that purpose, who should sign over the

Sec. 342.0  Offering of notes.

    The Secretary of the Treasury offered for sale to the people of the 
United States, United States Savings Notes (also known as ``Freedom 
Shares'', and generally referred to herein as ``savings notes'' or 
``notes''). The notes could be purchased only in combination with Series 
E savings bonds of the same or greater denomination. This offering was 
effective from May 1, 1967 until the close of business October 31, 1970 
when the sale of savings notes was terminated by the Secretary of the 
Treasury.



Sec. 342.1  Definition of words and terms used in this part.

    (a) Payroll savings plan refers to a voluntary program maintained by 
an employer whereby its participating officers and employees authorize 
regular withholdings from their salaries or wages for the purchase of 
savings bonds.
    (b) Quarter refers to a 3-month period of a year, as follows: 
January-February-March, April-May-June, July-August-September, or 
October-November-December.



Sec. 342.2  Description of notes.

    (a) General. Savings notes were issued only in registered form and 
are nontransferable.
    (b) Term. A savings note was dated as of the first day of the month 
in which payment of the purchase price was received by an issuing agent. 
A note had an original maturity period of 4 years and 6 months and has 
been granted two 10-year extensions of maturity and an additional 
extension of 5 years and 6 months with interest; it will reach

[[Page 238]]

final maturity 30 years from its issue date. A note cannot be called by 
the Secretary of the Treasury prior to maturity and was not redeemable 
during the first year from issue date. Thereafter, a note may be 
redeemed at the option and request of the owner.
    (c) Denominations and purchase prices. Savings notes were issued on 
a discount basis. The denominations and purchase prices were as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                              Purchase
                       Denomination                             price
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$25.......................................................        $20.25
50........................................................         40.50
75........................................................         60.75
100.......................................................         81.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Interest is paid as a part of the redemption value. A note increased in 
value one year after issue date and increases at the beginning of each 
half-year period thereafter until final maturity, at which time interest 
ceases to accrue. Interest on a note which is redeemed before maturity 
ceases to accrue at the end of the interest period next preceding the 
redemption date, except that if the note is redeemed on a date on which 
the redemption value increases, interest ceases to accrue on that date.
    (d) Inscription and issue. At the time of issue, the authorized 
issuing agent:
    (1) Inscribed on the face of each note the name and address of the 
owner and the name of the beneficiary, if any, or the names of the 
coowner;
    (2) Entered the issue date in the right-hand portion of the note in 
the space provided for that purpose; and
    (3) Imprinted thereunder, by use of the agent's validation indicia 
for the issue of Series E savings bonds, the date the note was actually 
inscribed. A note is valid only if an authorized issuing agent received 
payment therefor and duly inscribed, dated, imprinted validation indicia 
on the note and delivered it.



Sec. 342.3  Extended terms and yields for outstanding notes.

    (a) Extended maturity periods. The terms extended maturity period 
and second extended maturity period refer to the 10-year intervals after 
the original maturity dates during which owners may retain their savings 
notes and continue to earn interest thereon. The term third extended 
maturity period refers to the final interval of 5 years and 6 months 
during which owners may retain notes and continue to earn interest until 
final maturity, which occurs 30 years after issue date. No special 
action is required of owners to take advantage of any extension 
heretofore or herein granted. The following table describes the previous 
and final maturities of savings notes:

including notes that enter into an extended maturity period, as shown 
below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) Eleven-year bonus. If a savings note was held for the 11-year 
period beginning with the first semiannual interest accrual date that 
occurred on or after January 1, 1980, its guaranteed minimum investment 
yield for such period was increased by one-half of one percent per 
annum, compounded semiannually.
    (c) Market-based variable investment yield. In order to be eligible 
for the market-based variable investment yield, notes had to be held at 
least five years beginning with the first semiannual interest accrual 
date occurring on or after November 1, 1982. The market-based variable 
investment yield shall be determined by the Secretary of the Treasury as 
follows:
    (1) For each 6-month period, starting with the period beginning May 
1, 1982, the average market yield on outstanding marketable Treasury 
securities with a remaining term to maturity of approximately 5 years 
during such period as determined. Such determination by the Secretary of 
the Treasury or his or her delegate shall be final and conclusive.
    (2) For notes which entered an extended maturity period prior to May 
1, 1989, the market-based variable investment yield from the first 
semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982 
to each semiannual interest accrual date occuring on or after November 
1, 1987, will be 85 percent, rounded to the nearest one-fourth of one 
percent, of the arithmetic average of the market yield averages, as 
determined in accordance with paragraph (c)(1) of this section, for the 
appropriate number of 6-month periods involved, starting with the period 
beginning May 1, 1982.
    (3) For notes which entered an extended maturity period on or after 
May 1, 1989, the market-based variable investment yield from the first 
semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1982 
to each semiannual interest accrual date occurring or or after November 
1, 1989, will be 85 percent, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one 
percent, of the arithmetic average of the market yield averages, as 
determined in accordance with paragraph (c)(1) of this section for the 
appropriate number of 6-month periods involved, starting with the period 
beginning May 1, 1982.
    (d) Determination of redemption values during any extended maturity 
period. The redemption value of a note on a given interest accrual date 
during any extended maturity period will be the higher of the value 
produced by using the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield or 
the value produced by using the appropriate market-based variable 
investment yield. The calculation of these values is described below:
    (1) Guaranteed minimum investment yield and resulting values during 
an extended maturity period. A note has a guaranteed minimum investment 
yield for each of its extended maturity periods. The applicable 
guaranteed minimum investment yield for the current extended maturity 
period and any subsequent periods are specified in paragraph (b) of this 
section. In order to determine the value of a note during an extended 
maturity period, the value of the note either at the end of the next 
preceding maturity period or when the guaranteed minimum investment 
yield

[[Page 240]]

last increased,\1\ whichever occurs later, is determined using the 
applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield. This value is then used 
as the base upon which interest accrues during the extended maturity 
period at the guaranteed minimum investment yield in effect for savings 
bonds at the beginning of that period. The resulting semiannual values 
are then compared with the corresponding values determined by using the 
applicable market-based variable investment yields.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The 11-year bonus was the last increase in the guaranteed 
minimum investment yield (see paragraph (b)(2)). Savings notes which 
were eligible to receive this bonus received it on the first semiannual 
interest accrual date which occurred on or after January 1, 1991.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) Market-based variable investment yield an resulting values 
during and extended maturity period. The market-based variable 
investment yield from the first semiannual interest accrual date 
occurring on or after November 1, 1982 to each semiannual interest 
accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1987, is determined as 
specified in paragraph (c) of this section. The value of a note on its 
first semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 
1982 is used as the base upon which interest accrues during an extended 
maturity period at the applicable market-based variable investment 
yield. If redeemed, the note will receive the higher of the two values 
produced by using the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield and 
the applicable market-based variable investment yield.
    (e) Market-based variable investment yields and tables of redemption 
values. The market-based variable investment yields for notes redeemed 
during each 6-month period, beginning on May 1 and November 1 of each 
year, are made available prior to each of those dates by the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia 26106-1328, accompanied by 
tables of the redemption values of notes for the following 6 months, 
based on either the applicable market-based variable investment yields 
or guaranteed minimum investment yields.

1993]



Sec. 342.4  Purchase--registration.

    (a) Purchase. Savings notes, in combination with Series E bonds, 
could be purchased from any authorized issuing agent, a Federal Reserve 
Bank or Branch, or the Bureau of the Public Debt. Payment for the notes 
could be made in the same manner as payment for Series E savings bonds. 
Issuing agents delivered the notes at the time of purchase, or by mail 
at the risk and expense of the United States, but only within the United 
States, its territories and possessions and the Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico. No mail deliveries elsewhere were made.
    (b) Registration. The following restrictions applied to original 
issues of savings notes:
    (1) They were limited to registration in the name of a natural 
person (whether adult or minor), alone, or with another natural person 
as coowner or beneficiary, and
    (2) They had to be identical in registration to the Series E bond 
purchased in combination therewith.



Sec. 342.5  Limitations.

    (a) Purchases--(1) Payroll savings plans. Under a payroll savings 
plan, withholdings for notes could not exceed the ratio of $1.08 for the 
notes to $1 for the Series E bonds and could not exceed $20.25 per 
weekly pay period, or $40.50 per biweekly or semi-monthly pay period, or 
$81 per monthly pay period.
    (2) Others. In combination purchases of notes and Series E bonds, 
other than under a payroll savings plan, purchases of notes could not 
exceed $350 (face amount) a quarter, and in no event could the annual 
limitation of $1,350 (face amount) be exceeded.
    (b) Holdings. The face amount of savings notes originally issued to 
any one person during any one calendar year, was limited to $1,350.



Sec. 342.6  Taxation.

    (a) General. For the purpose of determining taxes and tax 
exemptions, the increment in value represented by the difference between 
the purchase price and the redemption value received for a savings note 
is considered interest. The interest is subject to all taxes imposed 
under the Internal Revenue Code

[[Page 241]]

of 1986, as amended. The notes are subject to estate, inheritance, gift, 
or other excise taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exempt from all 
other taxation now or hereafter imposed on the principal or interest 
thereof by any State, or any of the possessions of the United States, or 
by any local taxing authority.
    (b) Federal income tax on notes. An owner of savings notes who is a 
cash-basis taxpayer may use either of two methods for reporting the 
increase in the redemption value of the notes for Federal income tax 
purposes, as follows:
    (1) Defer reporting of the increase to the year of final maturity, 
actual redemption, or other disposition, whichever is earlier; or
    (2) Elect to report the increase for the year in which it accrues, 
in which case the election applies to all savings notes then owned and 
those subsequently acquired, as well as to any other similar obligations 
purchased on a discount basis.

If the method in paragraph (b)(1) of this section is used, the taxpayer 
may change to the method in paragraph (b)(2) of this section without 
obtaining permission from the Internal Revenue Service. However, once 
the election to use the method in paragraph (b)(2) of this section is 
made, the taxpayer may not change the method of reporting without 
permission from the Internal Revenue Service. For further information on 
Federal income taxes, the Service Center Director or District Director, 
Internal Revenue Service, of the taxpayer's district should be 
contacted.



Sec. 342.7  Payment or redemption.

    (a) General. A savings note is redeemable any time one year or more 
after the issue date upon its presentation and surrender, with a duly 
executed request for payment, to any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch 
referred to in 342.9, the Bureau of the Public Debt, or to any financial 
institution designated as a paying agent of savings bonds.
    (b) Judgment creditors. Payment of a savings note to the purchaser 
at a sale under a levy, or to the officer authorized to levy upon the 
property of the owner under appropriate process to satisfy a money 
judgment, could not be made until one year after the issue date of the 
note.

Sec. 343.0  Offering of bonds.

    The Secretary of the Treasury, under the authority of the Second 
Liberty Bond Act, as amended, and pursuant to paragraph 832(e) of the

organized and engaged in the business of writing mortgage guaranty 
insurance within the United States, bonds of the United States 
designated as Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Company Tax and Loss Bonds, 
hereinafter referred to as tax and loss bonds. The bonds are issued in a 
minimum amount of $1,000 or in any larger amount, in increments of not 
less than $1.00. This offering will continue until terminated by the 
Secretary of the Treasury.



Sec. 343.1  General provisions.

    (a) Regulations. Tax and loss bonds are subject to the general 
regulations with respect to United States securities, which are set 
forth in the Department of the Treasury Circular No. 300 (31 CFR part 
306), to the extent applicable. Copies of the circular may be obtained 
from the Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of Special Investments, 
Room 309, 200 Third St., P.O. Box 396, Parkersburg, WV 26106-0396 or

    (d) Debt limit contingency. The Department of the Treasury reserves 
the right to change or suspend the terms and conditions of this

conduct the orderly financing operations of the United States cannot be 
made without exceeding the statutory debt limit. Announcement of such 
changes shall be provided by such means as the Secretary deems 
appropriate.
    (e) General redemption provisions. A bond may not be called for 
redemption by the Secretary of the Treasury prior to maturity. When the 
bond matures, payment will be made of the principal amount due to the 
owner. A bond scheduled for maturity on a non-business day will be 
redeemed on the next business day.
    (f) Reservations. The Secretary of the Treasury may at any time, or 
from time to time, supplement or amend the terms of this circular or any 
related amendments or supplements. Transaction requests, including 
purchases or redemptions of bonds, are not acceptable if unsigned,

1535-0127.)



Sec. 343.4  Reissue.

    (a) General. Reissue of a tax and loss bond may be made only under 
the conditions specified in this paragraph. A request for reissue must 
be made by an officer of the beneficial owner who is authorized to 
assign the bond for redemption. The request must be submitted to the 
Division of Special Investments. A bond will only be reissued in book-
entry form and will bear the same issue date and maturity as the 
original bond.
    (b) Correction of error. The reissue of a bond may be made to 
correct an error in the original issue upon an appropriate request, 
supported by satisfactory proof of the error.
    (c) Change of name. An owner whose name is changed in any legal 
manner after the issue of the bond should submit the bond with a request 
for reissue, substituting the new name for the name inscribed on the 
bond. The signature on the request for reissue should show the new name, 
the legal reason which caused the change to be made and the former name. 
It must be supported by satisfactory proof of the change of name.
    (d) Legal succession. A bond registered in the name of a company 
which has been succeeded by another company as the result of a merger, 
consolidation, incorporation, reincorporation, conversion, 
reorganization, or which has been lawfully succeeded in any manner 
whereby the business or activities of the original organization are 
continued without substantial change, will be paid to or reissued in the 
name of the successor upon an appropriate request on its behalf, 
supported by satisfactory evidence of successorship.
    (e) Conversion to book-entry. Although not required, any owner of 
tax and loss bonds held in registered form after the effective date of 
this regulation, may submit those bonds to the Division of Special 
Investments, for conversion to book-entry form.


(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 
1535-0127.)

                     Subpart A--General Information



Sec. 344.0  Offering of securities.

    (a) In order to provide issuers of tax exempt securities with 
investments from any amounts that constitute gross proceeds of an issue 
or any other amounts which assist an issuer of tax-exempt bonds in 
complying with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code 
relating to such tax exemption, the Secretary of the Treasury offers for 
sale the following State and Local Government Series securities:
    (1) Time deposit securities:
    (i) United States Treasury Certificates of Indebtedness,
    (ii) United States Treasury Notes, and
    (iii) United States Treasury Bonds.
    (2) Demand deposit securities--United States Treasury Certificates 
of Indebtedness.
    (b) As appropriate, the definitions of terms used in part 344 are 
those found in the relevant portions of the Internal Revenue Code and 
the tax regulations. The term ``government body'' refers to issuers of 
state or local government bonds described in section 103 of the Internal 
Revenue Code.
    (c) The securities in paragraph (a) of this section are issued in a 
minimum amount of $1,000, or in any larger amount, in increments of not 
less than $1.00 for time deposit securities and in any increments over 
the $1,000 minimum for demand deposit securities.
    (d) This offering continues until terminated by the Secretary of the 
Treasury.



Sec. 344.1  General provisions.

    (a) Regulations. United States Treasury securities--State and Local 
Government Series shall be subject to the general regulations with 
respect to United States securities, which are set forth in the 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 300 (31 CFR part 306), to the 
extent applicable. Copies of the circular can be obtained from the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of Special Investments--Room 309, 
200 Third Street, P.O. Box 396, Parkersburg, WV 26102-0396.
    (b) Issuance. The securities are issued in book-entry form on the 
books of the Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Parkersburg, WV. Transfer of securities by sale, exchange, assignment, 
pledge, or otherwise is not permitted.
    (c) Transfers. Securities held in an account of any one type, i.e., 
time deposit, demand deposit, or special zero interest, cannot be 
transferred within that account or to an account of any other type.
    (d) Fiscal agents. Selected Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, as 
fiscal agents of the United States, can be designated to perform such 
services requested of them by the Secretary of the Treasury in 
connection with the

[[Page 246]]

purchase of, transactions involving, and redemption of, the securities.
    (e) Authority of subscriber. Where a commercial bank submits an 
initial or final subscription on behalf of a government body, it must 
certify it is acting under the latter's specific authorization. 
Ordinarily, evidence of such authority is not required. Subscriptions 
submitted by an agent, other than a commercial bank, must be accompanied 
by evidence of the agent's authority to act. Such evidence must describe 
the nature and scope of the agent's authorization, must specify the 
legal authority under which the agent was designated, and must relate by 
its terms to the investment action undertaken. Subscriptions unsupported 
by such evidence are not acceptable.
    (f) Impermissible transactions. It is impermissible to subscribe for 
SLGS securities for deposit in a defeasance escrow or fund if, at any 
time between the close of business on the date of subscription and the 
close of business on the date of issue, the amount of SLGS securities 
subscribed for, plus the amount of other securities, if any, already in 
such escrow or fund, plus the amount of other securities the government 
body has acquired, or has the right to acquire for deposit in an escrow 
or fund, exceeds the total amount of securities needed to fund such 
escrow or fund. Securities held in the escrow or fund that are not 
subject to an agreement conditioned on changes in the interest rate on 
open market Treasury securities on or prior to the date of issue of the 
SLGS securities shall not be included in such computation. An adjustment 
in the subscription amount in accordance with 31 CFR 344.3(b)(3)(ii) 
will not in and of itself make the transaction impermissible.
    (g) Reservations. Transaction requests, including requests for 
subscription and redemption, are not acceptable if unsigned, 
inappropriately completed, or not timely submitted. Any of these actions 
shall be final. The authority of the Secretary to waive regulations 
under 31 CFR 306.126 applies to part 344. The Secretary of the Treasury 
reserves the right:
    (1) To reject any application for the purchase of securities under 
this offering;
    (2) To refuse to issue any such securities in any case or any 
class(es) of cases; and
    (3) To revoke the issuance of any security, and to declare the 
subscriber ineligible thereafter to subscribe for securities under this 
offering if the Secretary deems such action in the public interest and 
if any security is issued on the basis of an improper certification, 
other misrepresentations (other than as the result of an inadvertent 
error) or in an impermissible transaction as set forth in Sec. 344.1(f).
    (h) Debt limit contingency. The Department of the Treasury reserves 
the right to change or suspend the terms and conditions of this 
offering, including provisions relating to subscriptions for, and 
issuance of, securities, interest payments, redemptions, and rollovers, 
as well as notices relating hereto, at any time the Secretary determines 
that the issuance of obligations sufficient to conduct the orderly 
financing operations of the United States cannot be made without 
exceeding the statutory debt limit. Announcement of such changes shall 
be provided by such means as the Secretary deems appropriate.
    (i) Noncompliance. The penalty imposed on any government body which 
fails to make settlement on a subscription once submitted and not 
canceled timely shall be to render the government body ineligible 
thereafter to subscribe for securities under any offering in part 344 
for a period of six months, beginning on the date the subscription is 
withdrawn or the proposed issue date, whichever occurs first.
    (1) The penalty is imposed on the government body unless the 
government body provides the Tax Identification Number of a conduit 
borrower that is the actual party failing to make settlement of a 
subscription. If this number is provided for a conduit borrower, the 
conduit borrower shall be the entity on which the six-month penalty is 
imposed.
    (2) The Division of Special Investments can determine to waive the 
six-month penalty, pursuant to the provisions governing the waiver of 
regulations set forth under 31 CFR 306.126. Where settlement occurs 
after the proposed issue date and the Division of

[[Page 247]]

Special Investments determines, pursuant to 31 CFR 306.126, that 
settlement is acceptable on an exception basis, the six-month penalty 
will be waived and the government body shall be subject to a late 
payment assessment. The late payment assessment will equal the amount of 
interest that will have accrued on the securities from the proposed 
issue date to the date of settlement, as well as an administrative fee 
of $100 per subscription. Assessments of late payment fees and 
administrative fees under part 344 are due on demand.
    (j) General redemption provisions. A security can not be called for 
redemption by the Secretary of the Treasury prior to maturity. Upon the 
maturity of a security, the Department will make payment of the 
principal amount and interest due to the owner thereof. A security 
scheduled for maturity on a non-business day will be redeemed on the 
next business day.
    (k) Business or calendar days. Unless otherwise noted, any reference 
herein to days refers to calendar days.

                   Subpart B--Time Deposit Securities



Sec. 344.2  Description of securities.

    (a) Terms--(1) Certificates. The certificates are issued with 
maturity periods fixed by the government body, from thirty days up to 
and including one year, or for any intervening period; provided, for 
certificates that bear no interest, the maturity period can be fixed by 
the government body from fifteen days up to and including one year or 
for any intervening period.
    (2) Notes. The notes are issued with maturity periods fixed by the 
government body, from one year and one day up to and including ten 
years, or for any intervening period.
    (3) Bonds. The bonds are issued with maturity periods fixed by the 
government body, from ten years and one day up to and including forty 
years, or for any intervening period; provided that for any subscription 
for a bond exceeding 30 years, the maximum available rate shall be the 
rate on a 30-year bond.
    (b) Interest rate. Each security shall bear such rate of interest 
the government body designates, but the rate shall not exceed the 
maximum interest rate. The applicable maximum interest rates for each 
day shall equal rates shown in a SLGS securities rate table, which is 
released by the Department to the public by 10:00 a.m., Eastern time, 
each business day. If the Department finds that due to circumstances 
beyond its control the rates are not available to the public by 10:00 
a.m., Eastern time, on any given business day, the applicable interest 
for the last preceding business day shall apply. The applicable rate 
table for any subscription is the one in effect on the date the initial 
subscription is faxed, postmarked or carrier date stamped. The rates 
specified in the tables are five basis points below the then current 
estimated Treasury borrowing rate for a Treasury security of comparable 
maturity. These rates can be obtained:
    (1) In the Commerce Department's Economic Bulletin Board;
    (2) By contacting the Division of Special Investment's automated fax 
at (304) 480-7548;
    (3) By calling the Division of Special Investments at (304) 480-
7752; or
    (4) On the Internet at ftp://ftp.publicdebt.treas.gov/secrate.txt
    (c) Payment. (1) Interest computation and payment dates. Interest on 
a certificate is computed on an annual basis and is paid at maturity 
with the principal. Interest on a note or bond is paid semi-annually. 
The government body specifies the first interest payment date, which 
must occur any time between thirty days and one year of the date of 
issue, and the final interest payment date must coincide with the 
maturity date of the security. Interest for other than a full semi-
annual interest period is computed on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day 
year (for certificates) and on the basis of the exact number of days in 
the half-year (for notes and bonds). See the appendix to subpart E of 
part 306 of this chapter for rules regarding computation of interest.
    (2) Method of payment. Payment can be made by the Automated Clearing 
House method (ACH) for the owner's account at a financial institution 
designated by the owner. Redemptions prior to maturity are paid by 
Fedwire. To the extent applicable, provisions of

[[Page 248]]

Sec. 357.26 on ``Payments'', set forth in 31 CFR part 357 and provisions 
of 31 CFR part 370, shall govern ACH payments made under this offering. 
The Department of the Treasury can employ alternate payment procedures, 
instead of ACH, in any case, or class of cases where operational 
considerations necessitate such action.



Sec. 344.3  Subscription for purchase.

    (a) Subscription requirements. Subscriptions for purchase of 
securities under this offering must be submitted to the Division of 
Special Investments, Bureau of the Public Debt, 200 Third Street, P.O. 
Box 396, Parkersburg, WV 26102-0396. Initial and final subscriptions can 
be submitted by fax at (304) 480-6818, by mail, or by other carrier. All 
subscriptions submitted by mail, whether initial or final, should be 
sent by certified or registered mail.
    (b) Initial subscriptions. (1) An initial subscription, either on a 
designated Treasury form or in letter form, stating the principal amount 
to be invested and the issue date, must be received by Public Debt at 
least five days before the issue date for subscriptions of $10 million 
or less, and at least seven days before the issue date for subscriptions 
of over $10 million, but in no event will subscriptions be received more 
than 60 days prior to issue date. Subscriptions can be sent by fax on 
(304) 480-6818, carrier service, U.S. Postal Service or other means. If 
the subscription is faxed, the original document must be received by 
Public Debt no later than the issue date. Initial subscriptions of $10 
million or less can be canceled without penalty by the subscriber prior 
to the fifth day before issue date. If the fifth day before issue date 
is a non-business day, the cancellation must occur on the preceding 
business day. Subscriptions of more than $10 million can be canceled 
without penalty by the subscriber prior to the seventh day before issue 
date. For example, if securities totaling $10 million or less are to be 
issued on March 16, the initial subscription must be received by Public 
Debt no later than March 11. If securities totaling more than $10 
million are to be issued on March 16, the initial subscription must be 
received by Public Debt no later than March 9. A subscriber can lock in 
the SLGS rate for the day it submits its subscription by sending a fax 
to the Division of Special Investments on or before the five/seven day 
notice period. A subscriber can also lock in the SLGS rate on the date 
of the postmark of a mailed subscription, provided the subscription is 
received on or before the five/seven day notice period. It is the 
responsibility of the sender of a faxed subscription to confirm its 
receipt. If the initial subscription is in letter form, it must contain 
the Tax Identification Number of the government body or it is 
unacceptable. It should read substantially as follows:

    (2) The provisions set out in paragraph (e) of Sec. 344.1, dealing 
with the authority of the subscriber to act on behalf of a government 
body, and in Sec. 344.1(h), relating to the failure to complete a 
subscription, apply to initial and to final subscriptions.
    (3) An initial subscription can be amended on or before the issue 
date, but no later than 3:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the issue date. 
Notification can be faxed to the Bureau of the Public Debt at (304) 480-
6818 provided the

[[Page 249]]

request is clearly identified as an amendment and is immediately 
followed by the submission, by mail or other carrier, of written 
notification. Amendments to initial subscriptions are acceptable with 
the following exceptions:
    (i) The issue date can not be changed to require issuance earlier 
than the issue date originally specified. The issue date can be changed 
up to 7 days after the original issue date. If such a change is made, 
notification should be provided to the Bureau of the Public Debt as soon 
as possible, but no later than 3:00 p.m., Eastern time, one business day 
before the originally specified issue date;
    (ii) The aggregate amount can not be changed by more than the 
greater of $10 million or ten percent above or below the aggregate 
principal amount specified in the initial subscription;
    (iii) An interest rate cannot be changed to a rate that exceeds the 
maximum interest rate in the table that was in effect for a security of 
comparable maturity on the date the initial subscription was submitted, 
unless the issuer obtains a higher rate by canceling and resubscribing 
in compliance with the provisions of Sec. 344.3(b)(1);
    (iv) Where an amendment is not submitted timely, the Division of 
Special Investments can determine, pursuant to the provisions governing 
waiver of regulations set forth under 31 CFR 306.126, that such an 
amendment is acceptable on an exception basis. Where an amendment is 
determined acceptable on an exception basis, the amended information 
shall be used as the basis for issuing the securities, and an 
administrative fee of $100 per subscription will be assessed. This 
administrative fee is due on demand as provided for in Sec. 344.1(h). 
The Secretary reserves the right to reject amendments which are not 
submitted timely.
    (4) No initial subscription is required where a final subscription 
is received at least five days before the issue date for subscriptions 
of $10 million or less and at least seven days before the issue date for 
subscriptions of over $10 million. Such final subscription is treated as 
the initial subscription for purposes of determining the applicable 
interest rate table (see Sec. 344.2(b)), and can be amended on or before 
the issue date, subject to the exceptions in paragraph (b)(3) of this 
section.
    (c) Final subscriptions. A final subscription must be received by 
the Bureau of the Public Debt on or before the issue date, but no later 
than 3:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the issue date. The final subscription 
can be faxed to the Bureau of the Public Debt at (304) 480-6818, 
provided the fax is properly identified as a final subscription and is 
immediately followed by the submission of the original subscription form 
by mail or other carrier. The final subscription must be for a total 
principal amount that is no more than the greater of either $10 million 
or ten percent above or below the aggregate principal amount specified 
in the initial subscription. The final subscription, dated and signed by 
an official authorized to make the purchase and showing the Taxpayer 
Identification Number of the government body, must be accompanied by a 
copy of the initial subscription, where applicable. The various 
maturities, interest rates, and interest payment dates (in the case of 
notes and bonds), must be specified in the final subscription, as well 
as the title(s) of the designated official(s) authorized to request 
early redemption. Final subscriptions submitted for certificates, notes 
and bonds must separately itemize securities of each maturity and each 
interest rate. The final subscription must contain a statement by the 
subscriber that none of the proceeds submitted in payment is derived 
(directly or indirectly) from the redemption before maturity of other 
securities of the State and Local Government Series subscribed for on or 
before December 27, 1976.
[61 FR 55693, Oct. 28, 1996, as amended at 62 FR 46446, Sept. 3, 1997]



Sec. 344.4  Issue date and payment.

    (a) General. The subscriber shall fix the issue date of each 
security in the initial subscription. The issue date must be a business 
day and can not exceed by more than sixty days the date the initial 
subscription is received by Public Debt. Full payment for each 
subscription must be submitted by the Fedwire funds transfer system with

[[Page 250]]

credit directed to the Treasury's General Account. Full payment should 
be submitted by 3:00 p.m., Eastern time, to ensure that settlement of 
the securities occurs on the date of issue.
    (b) [Reserved]



Sec. 344.5  Redemption.

    (a) Redemption before maturity--(1) In general. A security can be 
redeemed at the owner's option no earlier than twenty-five days after 
the issue date in the case of a certificate of thirty days or more, no 
earlier than fifteen days before the scheduled maturity for zero 
interest certificates of fifteen to twenty-nine days maturity, and no 
earlier than thirty days after the issue date in the case of a note or 
bond. Partial redemptions can be requested in any amount; however, an 
account balance of less than $1,000 will be redeemed in total.
    (2) Notice. Notice of redemption prior to maturity must be 
submitted, either on a designated Treasury form or by letter, by the 
official(s) authorized to redeem the securities, as shown on the final 
subscription form, to the Division of Special Investments, Bureau of the 
Public Debt, 200 Third Street, P.O. Box 396, Parkersburg, WV 26102-0396. 
The notice must be received by Public Debt no less than ten days before 
the requested redemption date, but no more than sixty days before the 
requested redemption date. The notice must show the account number, the 
maturities of the securities to be redeemed, and the Tax Identification 
Number of the government body. A notice of redemption prior to maturity 
can not be canceled.
    (3) Redemption proceeds--Subscriptions on or after October 28, 1996. 
For securities subscribed for on or after October 28, 1996, the amount 
of the redemption proceeds is calculated as follows:
    (i) Interest. If a security is redeemed before maturity on a date 
other than a scheduled interest payment date, interest is paid for the 
fractional interest period since the last interest payment date.
    (ii) Redemption value. The remaining interest and principal payments 
are discounted by the current Treasury borrowing rate for the remaining 
term to maturity of the security redeemed. This results in a premium or 
discount to the government body, depending on whether the current 
Treasury borrowing rate is lower or higher than the stated interest rate 
of the early-redeemed SLGS security. This does not apply to SLGS 
securities subscribed for before October 28, 1996. The term ``current 
Treasury borrowing rate'' means the applicable rate shown in the table 
of maximum interest rates payable on United States Treasury securities--
State and Local Government Series--for the day the request for early 
redemption is received by Public Debt, plus five basis points. There is 
no market charge for the redemption of zero interest time deposit 
securities subscribed for on or after October 28, 1996. Redemption 
proceeds in the case of a zero-interest security are a return of the 
principal invested. The formulas for calculating the redemption value 
under this section, including examples of the determination of premiums 
and discounts are set forth in Appendix B of this part.
    (4) Redemption proceeds--Subscriptions from September 1, 1989, 
through October 27, 1996. For securities subscribed for from September 
1, 1989, through October 27, 1996, the amount of the redemption proceeds 
is calculated as follows:
    (i) Interest. If a security is redeemed before maturity on a date 
other than a scheduled interest payment date, interest is paid for the 
fractional interest period since the last interest payment date.
    (ii) Market charge. An amount shall be deducted from the redemption 
proceeds in all cases where the current borrowing rate of the Department 
of the Treasury for the remaining period to original maturity of the 
security prematurely redeemed exceeds the rate of interest originally 
fixed for such security. The amount shall be the present value of the 
future increased borrowing cost to the Treasury. The annual increased 
borrowing cost for each interest period is determined by multiplying the 
principal by the difference between the two rates. For notes and bonds, 
the increased borrowing cost for each remaining interest period to 
original maturity is determined by dividing the annual cost by two. For 
certificates, the increased borrowing

[[Page 251]]

cost for the remaining period to original maturity is determined by 
multiplying the annual cost by the number of days remaining until 
original maturity divided by the number of days in the calendar year. 
Present value shall be determined by using the current Treasury 
borrowing rate as the discount factor. The term ``current Treasury 
borrowing rate'' is determined in section 344.5(a)(3)(ii). Where 
redemption is requested on a date less than thirty days before the 
original maturity date, such applicable rate is the rate shown for a 
security with a maturity of thirty days. The market charge for bonds, 
notes, and certificates of indebtedness can be computed by use of the 
formulas in Appendix A to this part.
    (5) Redemption proceeds--Subscriptions from December 28, 1976, 
through August 31, 1989. For securities subscribed for from December 28, 
1976, through August 31, 1989, the amount of the redemption proceeds is 
calculated as follows:
    (i) Interest. Interest for the entire period the security was 
outstanding shall be recalculated on the basis of the lesser of the 
original interest rate at which the security was issued, or the interest 
rate that would have been set at the time of the initial subscription 
had the term for the security been for the shorter period. If a note or 
bond is redeemed before maturity on a date other than a scheduled 
interest payment date, no interest is paid for the fractional interest 
period since the last interest payment date.
    (ii) Overpayment of interest. If there have been overpayments of 
interest, as determined under paragraph (a)(5)(i) of this section, there 
shall be deducted from the redemption proceeds the aggregate amount of 
such overpayments, plus interest, compounded semi-annually thereon, from 
the date of each overpayment to the date of redemption. The interest 
rate used used in calculating the interest on the overpayment shall be 
one-eighth of one percent above the maximum rate that would have applied 
to the initial subscription had the term of the security been for the 
shorter period.
    (iii) Market charge. An amount shall be deducted from the redemption 
proceeds in all cases where the current borrowing rate of the Department 
of the Treasury for the remaining period to original maturity of the 
security prematurely redeemed exceeds the rate of interest originally 
fixed for such security. The amount shall be calculated using the 
formula in paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of this section.
    (6) Redemption proceeds--Subscriptions on or before December 27, 
1976. For securities subscribed for on or before December 27, 1976, the 
amount of the redemption proceeds is calculated as follows.
    (i) The interest for the entire period the security was outstanding 
shall be re-calculated on the basis of the lesser of the original 
interest rate at which the security was issued, or an adjusted interest 
rate reflecting both the shorter period during which the security was 
actually outstanding and a penalty. The adjusted interest rate is the 
Treasury rate which would have been in effect on the date of issuance 
for a marketable Treasury certificate, note, or bond maturing on the 
quarterly maturity date prior to redemption (in the case of 
certificates), or on the semi-annual maturity period prior to redemption 
(in the case of notes and bonds), reduced in either case by a penalty 
which shall be the lesser of:
    (A) One-eighth of one percent times the number of months from the 
date of issuance to original maturity, divided by the number of full 
months elapsed from the date of issue to redemption; or
    (B) One-fourth of one percent.
    (ii) There shall be deducted from the redemption proceeds, if 
necessary, any overpayment of interest resulting from previous payments 
made at a higher rate based on the original longer period to maturity.
    (b) [Reserved]



                  Subpart C--Demand Deposit Securities



Sec. 344.6  Description of securities.

    (a) Terms. The securities are one-day certificates of indebtedness. 
Each subscription is established as a unique account. Securities are 
automatically rolled over each day unless redemption is requested.

[[Page 252]]

    (b) Interest rate. (1) Each security shall bear a variable rate of 
interest based on an adjustment of the average yield for three-month 
Treasury bills at the most recent auction. A new rate is effective on 
the first business day following the regular auction of three-month 
Treasury bills and is shown in the SLGS rate table, available to the 
public on such business day. Interest is accrued and added to principal 
daily. Interest is computed on the balance of the principal, plus 
interest accrued through the preceding day.
    (2)(i) The annualized effective demand deposit rate in decimals, 
designated ``I'' in Equation 1 is calculated as:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.000

where
P=Average auction price for the most recently auctioned 13-week Treasury 
bill, per hundred, to three decimals.
Y=365 if the year following issue date does not contain a leap year day 
and 366 if it does contain a leap year day.
DTM=The number of days from date of issue to maturity for the most 
recently auctioned 13-week Treasury bill.
MTR=Estimated marginal tax rate, in decimals, of purchasers of tax-
exempt bonds.
TAC=Treasury administrative costs, in decimals.
    (ii) The daily factor for the demand deposit rate is then calculated 
as follows:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.001

    (3) Information on the estimated average marginal tax rate and costs 
for administering the demand deposit State and Local Government Series 
securities program, both to be determined by Treasury from time to time, 
will be published in the Federal Register.
    (c) Payment. Interest earned on the securities is added to the 
principal and is reinvested daily until redemption. At any time the 
Secretary determines that issuance of obligations sufficient to conduct 
the orderly financing operations of the United States cannot be made 
without exceeding the statutory debt limit, the Department will invest 
any unredeemed demand deposit securities in special ninety-day 
certificates of indebtedness. These ninety-day certificates are payable 
at maturity, but redeemable before maturity, provided funds are 
available for redemption, or reinvested in demand deposit securities 
when regular Treasury borrowing operations resume, both at the owner's 
option. Funds invested in the ninety-day certificates of indebtedness 
earn simple interest equal to the daily factor in effect at the time 
demand deposit security issuance is suspended, multiplied by the number 
of days outstanding.



Sec. 344.7  Subscription for purchase.

    (a) Subscription requirements. Subscriptions for purchase of 
securities under this offering must be submitted to the Division of

  Appendix A to Part 344--Early Redemption Market Charge Formulas and 
 Examples for Subscriptions From September 1, 1989, Through October 27, 
                                  1996

    A. The amount of the market charge for bonds and notes subscribed 
for before October 28, 1996 can be determined by the following formula:

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.002

where:

M=Market charge
b=increased annual borrowing cost (i.e., principal multiplied by the 
          excess current borrowing rate for the period from redemption 
          to original maturity of note or bond over the rate for the 
          security)
r=number of days from redemption date to next interest payment date
s=number of days in current semi-annual period
i=Treasury borrowing rate over the remaining term to maturity, based on 
          semi-annual interest payments and expressed in decimals.
n=number of remaining full semi-annual periods from the redemption date 
          to the original maturity date, except that if the redemption 
          date is on an interest payment date, n will be one less than 
          the number of full semi-annual periods remaining to maturity.
vn=1/(1 + i/2)n=present value of 1 due at the end 
          of n periods (Equation 2)
aa = (1- vn)/(i/2) = v + v2 + 
          v3 + ... + vn = present value of 1 per 
          period for n periods (Equation 3)
    B. The application of this formula can be illustrated by the 
following example:
    (1) Assume that a $600,000 note is issued on July 1, 1985, to mature 
on July 1, 1995. Interest is payable at a rate of 8% on January 1 and 
July 1.
    (2) Assume that the note is redeemed on February 1, 1989, and that 
the current borrowing rate for Treasury at that time for the remaining 
period of 6 years and 150 days is 11%.
    (3) The increased annual borrowing cost is $18,000. 
($600,000) x (11%-8%)
    (4) The market charge is computed as follows:

[[Page 255]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.003


[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.004


[[Page 256]]


    C. The amount of the market charge for certificates subscribed for 
before October 28, 1996 can be determined through use of the following 
formula:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.005

where

M=market charge
b=increased borrowing cost for full period
r=number of days from redemption date to original maturity date
s=number of days in current annual period (365 or 366)
i=current borrowing rate expressed in decimals (discount factor)
    D. The application of this formula can be illustrated by the 
following example:
    (1) Assume that a $50,000 certificate is issued on March 1, 1987, to 
mature on November 1, 1987. Interest is payable at a rate of 10%.
    (2) Assume that the certificate is redeemed on July 1, 1987, and 
that the current borrowing cost to Treasury for the 123-day period from 
July 1, 1987, to November 1, 1987, is 11.8%.
    (3) The increased annual borrowing cost is $900. ($50,000)  x  
(11.8%-10%)
    (4) The market charge is computed as follows:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.006
    
  Appendix B to Part 344--Formula for Determining Redemption Value for 
  Securities Subscribed for and Early-Redeemed On or After October 28, 
                                  1996

    This results in a premium or discount to the government body, 
depending on whether the current Treasury borrowing rate at the time of 
early redemption is lower or higher than the stated interest rate of the 
early-redeemed SLGS security.
    A. The total redemption value for bonds and notes can be determined 
by the following two steps:
    First, accrued interest payable in accordance with 
Sec. 344.5(a)(3)(i) is calculated using the following formula:

[[Page 257]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.007


where
RV=Redemption value
F=Face amount redeemed
AI=Accrued interest=[(s-r)/s] x (C/2)
r=Number of days from redemption date to next interest payment date
s=number of days in current semi-annual period
i=Treasury borrowing rate over the remaining term to maturity, based on 
          semi-annual interest payments and expressed in decimals
C=the regular annual interest
n=number of remaining full semi-annual periods from the redemption date 
          to the original maturity date, except that, if the redemption 
          date is an interest payment date, n will be one less than the 
          number of full semi-annual periods remaining to maturity
vn=1/(1+i/2) n=present value of 1 due at the end 
          of n periods
aa=(1- vn)/(i/2)=v + v2 + v3 
          + ... + vn = present value of 1 per period for n 
          periods
    B. The application of this formula can be illustrated by the 
following examples:
    (i) The first example is for a redemption at a premium.
    (1) Assume that an $800,000 2-year note is issued on December 10, 
1996, to mature on December 10, 1998. Interest is payable at a rate of 
7% on June 10 and December 10.
    (2) Assume that the note is redeemed on October 21, 1997, and that 
the current borrowing rate for Treasury at that time for the remaining 
period of 1 year and 50 days is 6.25%.
    (3) The redemption value is computed as follows:
    First, the accrued interest payable is calculated as:

[[Page 258]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.010



[[Page 259]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.012


    (ii) The second example is for a redemption at a discount and it 
uses the same assumptions as the first example, except the current 
Treasury borrowing cost is assumed to be 8.00%:
    (1) Assume that an $800,000 2-year note is issued on December 10, 
1996, to mature on December 10, 1998. Interest is payable at a rate of 
7% on June 10 and December 10.
    (2) Assume that the note is redeemed on October 21, 1997, and that 
the current borrowing rate for Treasury at that time for the remaining 
period of 1 year and 50 days is 8.00%.
    (3) The redemption value is computed as follows. First, the accrued 
interest payable is caculated as:

[[Page 260]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.013



[[Page 261]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.015


    C. The total redemption value for certificates can be determined by 
the following two steps:
    First, accrued interest payable in accordance with Section 
344.5(a)(3)(i) is calculated using the following formula:

[[Page 262]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.016


where:

RV=Redemption value
F=Face amount redeemed
AI=Accrued interest = [(d-r)/y] x C
d=Number of days from original issue of the certificate to its maturity 
          date
r=Number of days from redemption date to the certificate's maturity date
y=365, if the number of days in the year following issue of the 
          certificate does not include a leap year day; 366, if the 
          number of days following issue of the certificate does include 
          a leap year day
i=Treasury borrowing rate over the remaining term to maturity, expressed 
          in decimals
C=the regular annual interest
    D. The application of this formula can be illustrated by the 
following examples.
    (i) First, for a redemption at a premium:
    (1) Assume that a $300,000 security is issued on December 5, 1996, 
to mature in 151 days on May 5, 1997. Interest at a rate of 5% is 
payable at maturity.
    (2) Assume that the security is redeemed on April 9, 1997, and that 
the current borrowing rate for Treasury at that time for the remaining 
period of 26 days is 4.00%.
    (3) The redemption value is computed as follows. First, the accrued 
interest payable is calculated as:

[[Page 263]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.018



[[Page 264]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR28OC96.019


    (ii) Secondly, for a redemption at a discount:
    (1) Assume that a $300,000 security is issued on December 5, 1996, 
to mature in 151 days on May 5, 1997. Interest at a rate of 5% is 
payable at maturity.

[[Page 265]]

    (2) Assume that the security is redeemed on April 9, 1997, and that 
the current borrowing rate for Treasury at that time for the remaining 
period of 26 days is 6.25%.
    (3) The redemption value is computed as follows. First, the accrued 
interest payable is calculated as:

Sec. 346.0  Offering of bonds.

    The Secretary of the Treasury, under the authority of the Second 
Liberty Bond Act, as amended, and pursuant to the Employee Retirement 
Income Security Act of 1974, offers for sale, beginning January 1, 1975, 
bonds of the United States, designated as United States Individual 
Retirement Bonds. The bonds will be available for investment only to 
individuals eligible to make deductions on their Federal income tax 
returns for retirement savings, as provided in section 2002 of the 
latter Act. This offering of bonds will terminate on April 30, 1982.
[40 FR 4240, Jan. 28, 1975, as amended at 47 FR 18596, Apr. 30, 1982]



Sec. 346.1  Description of bonds.

    (a) Investment yield (interest). United States Individual Retirement 
Bonds, hereinafter sometimes referred to as Individual Retirement Bonds, 
will be issued at par. The investment yields (interest) are as follows:
    (1) Bonds with issue dates of January 1, 1975, through July 1, 
1979--6 percent per annum, compounded semiannually

[[Page 268]]

(see Table of Redemption Values in the appendix).
    (2) Bonds with issue dates of August 1, 1979, through October 1, 
1980--6.5. percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table A in 
the appendix).
    (3) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1980, through September 1, 
1981--8 percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table B).
    (4) Bonds with issue dates of October 1, 1981, or thereafter--9 
percent per annum, compounded semiannually (see Table C).

Interest will be paid only upon redemption of the bonds. The accrual of 
interest will continue until the bonds are redeemed or have reached 
maturity, whichever is earlier, in accordance with these regulations.
    (b) Term. The maturity date of any bond issued under this circular 
shall be the first day of the month in which the registered owner 
thereof has attained the age of 70\1/2\ years, or five years after the 
date of his death, but no later than the first day of the month in which 
he would have attained the age of 70\1/2\ years, if he had lived. Unless 
sooner redeemed in accordance with these regulations, the investment 
yield on a bond will cease on the interest accrual date coinciding with, 
or, where no such coincidence occurs, the interest accrual date next 
preceding:
    (1) The first day of the seventh (7th) month following the 70th 
anniversary of the birth of the person in whose name it is registered, 
or
    (2) The first day of the sixtieth (60th) month following the date of 
death of the person in whose name it is registered, except that such 
date shall be no later than the date on which he would have attained the 
age of 70\1/2\ years, had he lived.
    (c) Denominations--issue date. Individual Retirement Bonds will be 
available only in registered form and in denominations of $50, $75, $100 
and $500. At the time of issue, the issuing agent will enter in the 
upper right-hand portion of the bond the issue date (which shall be the 
first day of the month and year in which payment of the purchase price 
is received by an authorized issuing agent), and will imprint the 
agent's validating stamp in the lower right-hand portion. The issue 
date, as distinguished from the date in the agent's validating stamp, 
will determine the date from which interest will begin to accrue on the 
bond. An Individual Retirement Bond shall be valid only if an authorized 
issuing agent receives payment therefor, duly inscribes, dates, stamps, 
and delivers it.

Sec. 346.2  Registration.

    (a) General. The registration of Individual Retirement Bonds is

adults or minors, in either single ownership or beneficiary form. A bond 
registered in the beneficiary form will be inscribed substantially as 
follows (for example): ``John A. Doe payable on death to (or P.O.D.) 
Richard B. Roe.'' No more than one beneficiary may be designated on a 
bond.
    (b) Inscription. The inscription on the face of each bond will show 
the name, address, date of birth, and the social security account number 
of the registered owner. The name of the beneficiary, if one is to be 
designated, together with his social security account number, where 
available, will also be shown in the inscription.



Sec. 346.3  Purchase of bonds.

    (a) Agencies. Individual Retirement Bonds may be purchased over-the-
counter or by mail from Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, Washington, 
DC 20226. Customers of commercial banks and trust companies may be able 
to arrange for the purchase of the bonds through such institutions, but 
only the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, and the Department of the 
Treasury itself, are authorized to issue the securities. The date of 
receipt of the application and payment by such issuing agencies will 
govern the dating of the bonds issued.
    (b) Applications. Applications for the purchase of Individual 
Retirement Bonds should be made on Form PD 4345, accompanied by a 
remittance to cover the purchase price. Personal

[[Page 269]]

checks will be accepted, subject to collection. Checks, or other forms 
of exchange, should be drawn to the order of the Federal Reserve Bank or 
the U.S. Treasury, as the case may be. Checks payable by endorsement are 
not acceptable.
    (c) Delivery. Delivery of bonds will be made in person, or by mail 
at the risk and expense of the United States at the address given by the 
purchaser, but only within the United States, its territories and 
possessions, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Canal Zone. No 
mail deliveries elsewhere will be made. If the registered owner 
temporarily resides abroad, the bonds will be delivered to such address 
in the United States as the purchaser directs.



Sec. 346.4  Proof of purchase.

    At the time an Individual Retirement Bond is issued, the issuing 
agent will furnish therewith to the purchaser a copy of Form PD 4345 for 
the purchaser's personal records. The form will show the name and 
address of the registered owner, his date of birth, social security 
account number, the number of bonds issued, a description thereof by 
issue date, serial numbers, denominations, and registration.



Sec. 346.5  Limitation on holdings.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, the amount 
of Individual Retirement Bonds which may be registered in any one 
individual's name is limited to the amount for which an annual deduction 
may be taken under either section 219 or 220 of the Internal Revenue 
Code.1 These limitations are as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    1 Note: Under the Internal Revenue Code, bonds issued 
during any given year or within 45 days thereafter may be deducted in 
that year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (1) In the case of an individual electing to deduct his or her bond 
purchase under section 219, the face amount of bonds purchased for tax 
deduction in any given year may not exceed 15 percent of the 
individual's earned income for that year or $1,500, whichever is less.
    (2) In the case of an individual electing to deduct his or her bond 
purchases under section 220, the total face amount of bonds purchased 
for tax deduction in any given year in the name of the individual and in 
the name of his or her nonworking spouse, may not exceed 15 percent of 
the working spouse's earned income for that year or $1,750, whichever is 
less.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2 Note: Code section 220 requires, in effect, that the total 
IRA contributions in each spouse's name to be deducted in any one year 
be in equal amounts. While it is permissible for an eligible married 
couple to utilize several different forms of IRA investments within the 
same year, this means that couples investing solely in bonds must 
purchase equal amounts of bonds in each spouse's name.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) The above limitations do not apply to rollover bond purchases, 
as described in sections 402(a)(5), 403(a)(4), or 408(d)(3) of the 
Internal Revenue Code.

(26 U.S.C. 220 and 31 U.S.C. 757)

[42 FR 37520, July 21, 1977]



Sec. 346.6  Nontransferability.

    United States Individual Retirement Bonds are not transferable, and 
may not be sold, discounted or pledged as collateral for a loan or as 
security for the performance of an obligation, or for any other purpose.



Sec. 346.7  Judicial proceedings.

    No judicial determination will be recognized which would give effect 
to an attempted voluntary transfer inter vivos of an Individual 
Retirement Bond. Otherwise, a claim against a registered owner will be 
recognized when established by valid judicial proceedings, but in no 
case will payment be made to the purchaser at a sale under a levy or to 
the officer authorized to levy upon the property of the owner under 
appropriate process to satisfy a money judgment unless or until the bond 
has become eligible for authorized redemption pursuant to these 
regulations. Neither the Department of the Treasury nor any of its 
agencies will accept notices of adverse claims or of pending judicial 
proceedings or undertake to protect the interests of litigants who do 
not have possession of the bond.

[[Page 270]]



Sec. 346.8  Payment or redemption during lifetime of owner.

    (a) During first 12 months of issue date. An Individual Retirement 
Bond is redeemable at any time during the first twelve (12) months of 
its issue date. No interest will be paid on any bond so redeemed.
    (b) Prior to age 59\1/2\--(1) With penalty. Unless redeemed within 
twelve months of its issue, or except as provided under paragraphs 
(b)(2) and (c)(2) of this section, if an Individual Retirement Bond is 
cashed by its owner before he attains age 59\1/2\, he must include on 
his Federal income tax return for the year of redemption the value of 
the bond. In addition, there is an additional income tax equal to 10 
percent of the value of the bond imposed by section 409(c) of the 
Internal Revenue Code of 1954.
    (2) In case of disability. An Individual Retirement Bond will be 
paid at its then current redemption value upon a registered owner's 
request (or by a person recognized as entitled to act on his behalf) 
prior to his attainment of age 59\1/2\ years upon submission of a 
physician's statement or any similar evidence showing that the owner has 
become disabled to such an extent that he is unable to engage in any 
substantial, gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable 
physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death 
or to be of long-continued and indefinite duration. The following are 
examples of impairments which would ordinarily be considered as 
preventing substantial, gainful activity:
    (i) Loss of use of two limbs.
    (ii) Certain progressive diseases which have resulted in the 
physical loss or atrophy of a limb, such as diabetes, multiple 
sclerosis, or Buerger's disease.
    (iii) Disease of the heart, lungs, or blood vessels which have 
resulted in major loss of heart or lung reserve as evidenced by X-ray, 
electrocardiogram, or other objective findings, so that despite medical 
treatment breathlessness, pain, or fatigue is produced on slight 
exertion, such as walking several blocks, using public transportation, 
or doing small chores.
    (iv) Cancer which is inoperable and progressive.
    (v) Damage to the brain or brain abnormality which has resulted in 
severe loss of judgment, intellect, orientation, or memory.
    (vi) Mental diseases (e.g., psychosis or severe psychoneurosis) 
requiring continued institutionalization or constant supervision of the 
individual.
    (vii) Loss or diminution of vision to the extent that the effected 
individual has a central visual acuity of not better than 20/200 in the 
better eye after best correction, or has a limitation in the fields of 
vision such that the widest diameter of the visual fields subtends an 
angle no greater than 20 degrees.
    (viii) Permanent and total loss of speech.
    (ix) Total deafness uncorrectible by a hearing aid.

In any case coming under the provisions hereof, the evidence referred to 
above must be submitted to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of 
Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101, for approval before any 
bonds may be paid. If, after review of the evidence, the Secretary of 
the Treasury is satisfied that the owner's disability has been 
established a letter will be furnished authorizing payment of his 
Individual Retirement Bonds. This letter must be presented each time any 
of the owner's bonds are submitted for payment to a Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch or to the Department of the Treasury.
    (c) Prior to age 70\1/2\--(1) General. An Individual Retirement Bond 
will be redeemable at its current redemption value upon the request of 
the registered owner (or a person recognized as entitled to act on his 
behalf), provided he is 59\1/2\ years of age or older. The owner's age 
will be determined from the date of birth shown on the face of the bond, 
provided, however, that the Secretary of the Treasury reserves the right 
in any case or class of cases to require proof, in the form of a duly 
certified copy of his birth certificate, that the owner has attained the 
age of 59\1/2\ years. If such evidence is unavailable, one of the 
following documents may be furnished in lieu thereof:
    (i) Church records of birth or baptism
    (ii) Hospital birth record or certificate

[[Page 271]]

    (iii) Physician's or midwife's birth record
    (iv) Certification of Bible or other family records
    (v) Military, naturalization or immigration records
    (vi) Other evidence of probative value.

Similar documentary evidence will also be required to support any claim 
made by an owner that the date of birth shown on his bond is incorrect.
    (2) For change of investment. Under section 409(b)(3)(c) of the 
Internal Revenue Code, if an Individual Retirement Plan Bond is cashed 
at any time before the end of the taxable year in which the owner 
attains age 70\1/2\, and the entire redemption proceeds are transferred 
to an individual retirement account, an individual annuity, an 
employees' trust, or annuity plan, as described in sections 408(a), 
408(b), 401(a) and 403(a), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code, 
on or before the 60th day after receipt of such proceeds, they shall be 
excluded from gross income and the transfer shall be treated as a 
rollover contribution described in section 408(d)(3) of the Internal 
Revenue Code.
    (d) Requests for payment--(1) By owner. When redemption of any 
Individual Retirement Bond is desired by the registered owner, it should 
be presented, with the request for payment on the back of the bond 
signed and duly certified, to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, Washington, 
DC 20226. If payment is requested on account of disability, the letter 
described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section should accompany the 
bond.3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3  In any case in which a legal representative has not been 
appointed for the estate of a registered owner who has attained the age 
of 59\1/2\ years, or who has become disabled, a person seeking payment 
of a bond on the owner's behalf should furnish a complete statement of 
the circumstances to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of 
Securities Operations, Washington, DC 20226. Appropriate instructions 
will then be furnished.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) By person other than owner. When redemption of any Individual 
Retirement Bond is desired by the legal guardian, committee, 
conservator, or similar representative of the owner's estate, it should 
be presented, with the request signed as described below, to a Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Department of the Treasury. If payment 
is requested on account of disability, the letter described in paragraph 
(b) (2) of this section should accompany the bond. 3 The 
request for payment, in either case, should be signed by the 
representative in his fiduciary capacity before an authorized certifying 
officer, and must be supported by a certificate or a certified copy of 
the letters of appointment from the court making the appointment, under 
seal, or other proof of qualification if the appointment was not made by 
a court. Except in the case of corporate fiduciaries, such evidence 
should state that the appointment is in full force and should be dated 
not more than one year prior to the presentation of the bond for 
payment.
    (e) Partial redemption. An Individual Retirement Bond in a 
denomination greater than $50 (face value), which is otherwise eligible 
for redemption, may be redeemed in part, at current redemption value, 
upon the request of the registered owner (or a person recognized as 
entitled to act on his behalf), but only in amounts corresponding to 
authorized denominations. In any case in which partial redemption is 
desired, before the request for payment is signed, the phrase ``to the 
extent of $---- (face value) and reissue of the remainder'' should be 
appended to the request. Upon partial redemption of the bond, the 
remainder will be reissued as of the original issue date. No partial 
redemption of a bond will be made after the death of the owner in whose 
name it is registered.

(26 U.S.C. 220 and 31 U.S.C. 757)

[40 FR 4240, Jan. 28, 1975, as amended at 42 FR 37520, July 21, 1977]



Sec. 346.9  Payment or redemption after death of owner.

    (a) Order of precedence where owner not survived by beneficiary. If 
the registered owner of an Individual Retirement Bond dies before it has 
been presented and surrendered for payment, and there is no beneficiary 
shown

[[Page 272]]

thereon, or if the designated beneficiary predeceased the owner, the 
bond shall be paid in the following order of precedence:
    (1) To the duly appointed executor or administrator of the estate of 
the owner, who should sign the request for payment on the back of the 
bond in his representative capacity before an authorized certifying 
officer, such request to be supported by a court certificate or a 
certified copy of his letters of appointment, under seal of the court, 
which should show that the appointment is in full force and effect, and 
be dated within six months of its presentation;
    (2) If no legal representative of the deceased registered owner's 
estate has been or will be appointed, to the widow or widower of the 
owner;
    (3) If none of the above, to the child or children of the owner and 
the descendants of deceased children by representation;
    (4) If none of the above, to the parents of the owner, or the 
survivor of them;
    (5) If none of the above, to other next-of-kin of the owner, as 
determined by the laws of the domicile of such owner at the time of his 
death.

In any case coming under the provisions of this paragraph, a duly 
certified copy of the registered owner's death certificate will 
ordinarily be required. Proof of death of the beneficiary, if any, will 
be required where he predeceased the owner. Payment of bonds under 
paragraph (a)(1) of this section will be made by a Federal Reserve Bank 
or by the Bureau of the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, 
Washington, DC 20226. Payment of bonds under paragraphs (a) (2) through 
(5) of this section will be made upon receipt of applications on Form PD 
3565-1, together with the bonds and supporting evidence, by the Bureau 
of the Public Debt, Division Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 
26101.
    (b) Order of precedence where beneficiary survived owner. If the 
registered owner of an Individual Retirement Bond dies before it has 
been presented and surrendered for payment, and the beneficiary shown 
thereon survived the owner, the bond shall be paid in the following 
order of precedence:
    (1) To the designated beneficiary upon his presentation and 
surrender of the bond with the request for payment signed and duly 
certified;
    (2) If the designated beneficiary survived the registered owner but 
failed to present the bond for payment during his own lifetime, payment 
will be made in the order of precedence specified in paragraphs (a) (1) 
through (5) of this section to the legal representative, surviving 
spouse, children, parents, or next-of-kin of such beneficiary, and in 
the manner provided therein.

In any case coming under the provisions of this subsection, a duly 
certified copy of the registered owner's death certificate will 
ordinarily be required. Proof of death of the beneficiary will also be 
required where he survived the owner but failed to present the bond for 
payment during his own lifetime. Payment of a bond to a designated 
beneficiary will be made by a Federal Reserve Bank or by the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Securities Transactions Branch, Washington, DC 20226.
    (c) Ownership of redemption proceeds. The orders of precedence set 
forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, except in cases where 
redemption is made for the account of a registered owner, are for the 
Department's convenience in discharging its obligation on an Individual 
Retirement Bond. The discharge of the obligation in accordance therewith 
shall be final so far as the Department is concerned, but those 
provisions do not otherwise purport to determine ownership of the 
redemption proceeds of a bond.

(26 U.S.C. 220 and 31 U.S.C. 757)

[40 FR 4240, Jan. 28, 1975, as amended at 42 FR 37520, July 21, 1977]



Sec. 346.10  Reissue.

    (a) Addition or change of beneficiary. An Individual Retirement Bond 
will be reissued to add a beneficiary in the case of a single ownership 
bond, or to eliminate or substitute a beneficiary in the case of a bond 
registered in beneficiary form upon the owner's request on Form PD 3564. 
No consent will be required to support any reissue transaction from a 
beneficiary whose name is to be removed from the registration

[[Page 273]]

of an Individual Retirement Bond. If the registered owner dies after the 
bond has been presented and surrendered for reissue, upon receipt of 
notice thereof by the agency to which the request for reissue was 
submitted, such request shall be treated as ineffective, provided the 
notice of death is received by the Federal Reserve Bank or the Bureau of 
the Public Debt, Division of Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 
26101, to which the request was sent, in sufficient time to withhold 
delivery, by mail or otherwise, of the reissued bond.
    (b) Error in issue--change of name. Reissue of an Individual 
Retirement Bond will be made where an error in issue has occurred, as 
well as in cases where the owner's name has been changed by marriage, 
divorce, annulment, order of court, or in any other legal manner upon an 
appropriate request. Information as to the procedure to be followed in 
securing such reissue may be obtained from a Federal Reserve Bank or the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of Transactions and Rulings, 
Parkersburg, WV 26101.

[40 FR 4240, Jan. 28, 1975, as amended at 42 FR 37520, July 21, 1977]



Sec. 346.11  Use of power of attorney.

    No designation of an attorney, agent, or other representative to 
request payment or reissue on behalf of the owner, beneficiary, or other 
person entitled under Sec. 346.9, other than as provided in these 
regulations, will be recognized.



Sec. 346.12  Lost, stolen, or destroyed bonds.

    If an Individual Retirement Bond is lost, stolen, or destroyed, 
relief will be granted upon identification of the bond and proof of its 
loss, theft, or destruction. A description of the bond by denomination, 
serial number, issue date and registration should be furnished at the 
time the report of loss, theft, or destruction is made. Such reports 
should be sent to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Division of 
Transactions and Rulings, Parkersburg, WV 26101. Full instructions for 
obtaining substitute bonds, or payment, in appropriate cases, will then 
be given.

[40 FR 4240, Jan. 28, 1975, as amended at 42 FR 37520, July 21, 1977]



Sec. 346.13  Taxation.

    The tax treatment provided under section 409 of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1954, as amended, shall apply to all Individual Retirement 
Bonds. The bonds are subject to estate, inheritance, or other excise 
taxes, whether Federal or State, but are exempt from all taxation now or 
hereafter imposed on the principal or interest thereof by any State, 
municipality, or any local taxing authority. Inquiry concerning the 
application of any Federal tax to these bonds should be directed to the 
District Director of Internal Revenue for the district in which the 
taxpayer resides.



Sec. 346.14  Certifying officers.

    Officers authorized to certify requests for payment or for any other 
transaction involving Individual Retirement Bonds include:
    (a) Post offices. Any postmaster, acting postmaster, or inspector-
in-charge, or other post office official or clerk designated for that 
purpose. A post office official or clerk, other than a postmaster, 
acting postmaster, or inspector-in-charge, should certify in the name of 
the postmaster or acting postmaster, followed by his own signature and 
official title. Signatures of these officers should be authenticated by 
a legible imprint of the post office dating stamp.
    (b) Banks and trust companies. Any officer of a Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch, or of a bank or trust company chartered under the laws of the 
United States or those of any State, Commonwealth, or Territory of the 
United States, as well as any employees of such bank or trust company 
expressly authorized to act for that purpose, who should sign over the 
title ``Designated Employee.'' Certifications by any of these officers 
or designated employees should be authenticated by either a legible 
imprint of the corporate seal, or, where the institution is an 
authorized issuing agent for United States

[[Page 274]]

Savings Bonds, Series E, by a legible imprint of its dating stamp.
    (c) Issuing agents of Series E savings bonds. Any officer of a 
corporation or any other organization which is an authorized issuing 
agent for United States Savings Bonds, Series E. All certifications by 
such officers must be authenticated by a legible imprint of the issuing 
agent's dating stamp.
    (d) Foreign countries. In a foreign country requests may be signed 
in the presence of and be certified by any United States diplomatic or 
consular representative, or the manager or other officer of a foreign 
branch of a bank or trust company incorporated in the United States 
whose signature is attested by an imprint of the corporate seal or is 
certified to the Department of the Treasury. If such an officer is not 
available, requests may be signed in the presence of and be certified by 
a notary or other officer authorized to administer oaths, but his 
official character and jurisdiction should be certified by a United 
States diplomatic or consular officer under seal of his office.
    (e) Special provisions. The Commissioner of the Public Debt, or his 
delegate, or any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch is authorized to make 
special provision for certification in any particular case or class of 
cases where none of the officers authorized above is readily accessible.



Sec. 346.15  General provisions.

    (a) Regulations. All Individual Retirement Bonds shall be subject to 
the general regulations prescribed by the Secretary with respect to 
United States securities, which are set forth in Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 300, current revision, to the extent applicable. 
Copies of the general regulations may be obtained upon request from any 
Federal Reserve Bank or the Department of the Treasury.
    (b) Reservation as to issue of bonds. The Secretary of the Treasury 
reserves the right to reject any application for the purchase of 
Individual Retirement Bonds, in whole or in part, and to refuse to issue 
or permit to be issued any such bonds in any case or any class or 
classes of cases if he deems such action to be in the public interest, 
and his action in any such respect shall be final.
    (c) Additional requirements. In any case or any class of cases 
arising under this circular, the Secretary of the Treasury may require 
such additional evidence as may in his judgment be necessary, and may 
require a bond of indemnity, with or without surety, where he may 
consider such bond necessary for the protection of the United States.
    (d) Waiver of requirements. The Secretary of the Treasury reserves 
the right, in his discretion, to waive or modify any provision or 
provisions of this circular in any particular case or class of cases for 
the convenience of the United States, or in order to relieve any person 
or persons of unnecessary hardship, if such action is not inconsistent 
with law, does not impair any existing rights, and he is satisfied that 
such action would not subject the United States to any substantial 
expense or liability.
    (e) Fiscal agents. Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, as fiscal 
agents of the United States, are authorized to perform such services as 
may be requested of them by the Secretary of the Treasury in connection 
with the issue, delivery, redemption, reissue, and payment of Individual 
Retirement Bonds.
    (f) Reservation as to terms of circular. The Secretary of the 
Treasury may at any time, or from time to time, supplement or amend the

                      Appendix to Part 346--Tables

  Table of Redemption Values Providing an Investment Yield of 6 Percent
    per Annum for Bonds Bearing Issue Dates Beginning January 1, 1975
  Note: This table shows how Individual Retirement Bonds bearing issue
     dates on or after January 1, 1975, by denomination, increase in
   redemption value during the successive half-year periods following
       issue. The redemption values provide an investment yield of
   approximately 6 pct/annum, compounded semiannually, on the purchase
   price from issue date to the beginning of each half-year period. No
increase in redemption value is shown, however, until 1 year after issue
 date since no interest may be paid on bonds redeemed before that time.
  The period to maturity is fixed in accordance with the provisions of
                    Sec.  346.1(b) of this circular.

Mar. 1993-Apr. 1995............  Mar. 2011-Apr. 2013...  18 years.
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (d) Redemption. A Series EE bond may be redeemed after 6 months from 
its issue date. The Secretary of the Treasury may not call Series EE 
bonds for redemption prior to final maturity.
    (e) Investment yield (interest) during original maturity periods--
bonds bearing issue dates of November 1, 1982 through April 1, 1995. The 
investment yield of a Series EE bond bearing issue dates of November 1, 
1982, through April 1, 1995, from its issue date to each interest 
accrual date occurring less than 5 years

[[Page 278]]

after issue, will be as shown in Tables 1, 2, and 3 in the appendix to 
this part.
    (1) Guaranteed minimum investment yield. The guaranteed minimum 
investment yield of a bond from its issue date to each semiannual 
interest accrual date occurring on or after 5 years from issue up to 
original maturity will be 7.5 percent per annum, compounded 
semiannually, for a bond bearing an issue date of November 1, 1982, 
through October 1, 1986, and 6 percent per annum, compounded 
semiannually, for a bond bearing an issue date of November 1, 1986, 
through February 1, 1993; and, 4 percent per annum, compounded 
semiannually, for a bond bearing an issue date of March 1, 1993, through 
April 1, 1995. Interest that accrues on a Series EE bond becomes part of 
its redemption value and is paid, as set out in Sec. 351.2 (h).
    (2) Market-based variable investment yield. If a Series EE bond is 
not sooner redeemed, its yield 5 years after its issue date and on each 
successive semiannual interest accrual date will be determined as 
follows:
    (i) For each 6-month period, starting with the period beginning on 
May 1, 1982, the average market yield on outstanding marketable Treasury 
securities with a remaining term to maturity of approximately 5 years 
during such period will be determined.
    (ii) For bonds bearing issue dates of November 1, 1982, through 
April 1, 1989, the market-based variable investment yield from the issue 
date of a bond to its semiannual interest accrual date 5 years 
thereafter will be 85 percent, rounded to the nearest one-fourth of 1 
percent, of the arithmetic average of the market yield averages for the 
ten 6-month periods starting with the 6-month period that most recently 
ended before such issue date.
    (iii) For bonds bearing issue dates of May 1, 1989 through April 1, 
1995, the market-based variable investment yield from the issue date to 
the semiannual interest accrual date 5 years thereafter will be 85 
percent, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of 1 percent, of the 
arithmetic average of the market yield averages for the ten 6-month 
periods starting with the 6-month period that most recently ended before 
such issue date.
    (iv) In determining the market-based variable investment yield for a 
bond from its issue date to each successive semiannual interest accrual 
date occurring after 5 years from issue up to original maturity, the 
average market yield for each additional 6-month period will be included 
in the computation.
    (v) The determination by the Secretary of the Treasury, or his 
delegate, of the average market yields shall be final and conclusive.

    Example. For bonds bearing issue dates of November 1, 1982, through 
April 1, 1983, the market-based variable investment yield from issue 
date to 5 years will be determined from the ten 6-month market yield 
averages for the period from May 1, 1982, through April 30, 1987. The 
market-based variable investment yield from issue to 5\1/2\ years will 
be determined for the period from May 1, 1982, through October 31, 1987. 
For bonds bearing issue dates of May 1, 1983, to October 1, 1983, the 5 
year market-based variable investment yield will be determined for the 
period from November 1, 1982, through October 31, 1987, and the 5\1/2\ 
year market-based variable investment yield will be determined from 
November 1, 1982, through April 30, 1988. ln each case where a bond is 
held for 5 years or longer during its original maturity period, its 
redemption value on the appropriate interest accrual date will be 
determined from such yield, unless the guaranteed minimum yield, 
compounded semiannually, as specified in Sec. 351.2(e)(1), from issue to 
that accrual date results in a higher redemption value.

    (f) Investment yields (interest) during original maturity periods--
bonds issued prior to November 1, 1982. For bonds bearing issue dates of 
January 1, 1980, through October 1, 1982, the investment yields shall be 
as follows:
    (1) Guaranteed minimum investment yield. The guaranteed minimum 
investment yields on bonds bearing issue dates prior to November 1, 
1982, are made available, on request, by the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Parkersburg, West Virginia 26106-1328.
    (2) Market-based variable investment yield. If a bond is held for a 
period of 5 years after its first semiannual interest accrual period, 
occurring on or after November 1, 1982, its yield for such period, and 
to each successive semiannual interest accrual date up to its original 
maturity, shall be either the guaranteed minimum investment yield 
specified above in paragraph (f)(1)

[[Page 279]]

of this section or the market-based variable investment yield computed 
as provided in paragraph (e)(2) of this section, whichever produces the 
greater value, using the appropriate number of 6-month periods. The 
first such period began on May 1, 1982.
    (g) Extended maturity periods for bonds bearing issue dates prior to 
May 1, 1995--(1) General. The terms extended maturity period, second 
extended maturity period, and extended maturity, as used herein, refer 
to periods after the original maturity dates of the bonds during which 
owners may retain them at interest. No special action is required of 
owners desiring to take advantage of any extensions herein granted.
    (2) Extensions granted for bonds bearing issue dates prior to May 1, 
1995. As described in the charts below, owners of Series EE bonds may 
retain their bonds for an extended maturity period of l0 years. Owners 
of Series EE bonds also may retain their bonds for a second extended 
maturity period having a period such that, if outstanding, interest 
shall accrue for a term totaling 30 years from the issue date. Each 
Series EE bond will reach its final maturity and cease to accrue 
interest 30 years after its issue date.

* At 10 years after original maturity.

    (3) Determination of redemption values during any extended maturity 
period for bonds bearing issue dates prior to May 1, 1995. The 
redemption value of a bond on a given interest accrual date during an 
extended maturity period or periods will be the higher of the value 
produced using the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield or the 
value produced using the appropriate market-based variable investment 
yield. The calculation of these yields and the resulting redemption 
values are described below:
    (i) Guaranteed minimum investment yield and resulting values during 
an extended maturity period. A bond may be subject to one guaranteed 
minimum investment yield during its original maturity period and to 
another such yield during each of its extended maturity periods. Bonds 
that entered an extended maturity period from May 1, 1989, through 
February 1, 1993, have a guaranteed minimum investment yield of 6 
percent per annum, compounded semiannually, during that extended 
maturity period. Bonds that entered or enter an extended maturity period 
on or after March 1, 1993, have a guaranteed minimum investment yield of 
4 percent per annum, compounded semiannually, during that extended 
maturity period, or the guaranteed minimum investment yield in effect at 
the beginning of that period. In order to determine values for a bond 
during its first extended maturity period, the value of the bond at the 
end of its original maturity period is determined using the guaranteed 
minimum investment yield applicable to that period. This value is then 
used as the base upon which interest accrues during the first extended 
maturity period at the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield 
for that period. The value thus attained at first extended

[[Page 280]]

maturity (10 years after original maturity) is then used as the base 
upon which interest accrues during the second extended maturity period 
at the applicable guaranteed minimum investment yield for that period. 
The resulting semiannual values are then compared with the corresponding 
values determined using the applicable market-based variable investment 
yields.
    (ii) Market-based variable investment yield and resulting values 
during an extended maturity period. For a bond beginning an extended 
maturity period, the market-based variable investment yield from its 
first semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 
1982, or its issue date, whichever is later, to each semiannual interest 
accrual date occurring on or after November 1, 1989, will be 85 percent, 
rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent, of the arithmetic 
average of the market yield averages for the appropriate number of 6-
month periods involved, beginning with the period from May l, 1982, or 
the 6-month period that most recently ended before the issue date, 
whichever period occurs later. The value of a bond on its first 
semiannual interest accrual date occurring on or after November l, l982, 
or its issue date, whichever is later, is used as the base upon which 
interest accrues during the extended maturity period at the applicable 
market-based variable investment yield. As described above, the bond 
will receive the higher of the two values produced using the applicable 
market-based variable investment yield and guaranteed minimum investment 
yield.
    (h) Accrual and payment of interest for bonds issued prior to May 1, 
1995. Interest accrues on a Series EE bond and becomes a part of the 
redemption value which is paid when the bond is cashed. For bonds with 
issue dates from January 1, 1980, through October 1, 1980, the 
redemption value increases on the first day of each month from the third 
through the thirtieth month after issue, and thereafter on the first day 
of each successive 6-month period. For bonds with issue dates from 
November 1, 1980, through October 1, 1986, the redemption value 
increases on the first day of each month from the third through the 
eighteenth month after issue, and thereafter on the first day of each 
successive 6-month period. For bonds with issue dates from November 1, 
1986, through February 1, 1993, the redemption values increase on the 
first day of each month from the third through the thirtieth month after 
issue, and thereafter on the first day of each successive 6-month 
period. For bonds with issue dates of March 1, 1993 through April 1, 
1995, the redemption values increase on the first day of each month from 
the third through the sixtieth month after issue, and thereafter either 
on the first day of each month or on the first day of each successive 6-
month period, whichever accrual schedule ensures that the actual yield 
from issue date to redemption date is in no case less than 4 percent per 
annum, compounded semiannually. The interest on an outstanding bond 
ceases to accrue 30 years after its issue date.
    (i) Tables of redemption values for bonds issued prior to May 1, 
1995. For bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1982 through April 1, 
1995, Tables 1, 2, and 3, in the appendix to this part, show the 
established redemption values and investment yields for the first 4\1/2\ 
years after issue and redemption values produced by guaranteed minimum 
investment yields from 5 years after issue to original maturity. For 
bonds issued prior to November 1, 1982, tables showing the established 
redemption values and investment yields for interest accrual dates 
occurring less than 5 years from the first semiannual interest accrual 
period starting on or after November 1, 1982, and the guaranteed minimum 
investment yields and resulting redemption values for interest accrual 
dates occurring thereafter to original maturity, are made available by 
the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia 26106-1328. 
The market-based variable investment yields for bonds redeemed during 
each 6-month period, beginning on May 1 and November 1 of each year, are

yields or guaranteed minimum investment yields.
    (j) Market-based interest rate and redemption values--bonds bearing 
issue dates of May 1, 1995, through April 1, 1997. (1) The following 
definitions apply for determining the interest rates and redemption 
values for bonds bearing issue dates of May 1, 1995, through April 1, 
1997:
    (i) Market yields. Treasury uses market bid yields for bills, notes, 
and bonds to create a yield curve based on the most actively traded 
Treasury securities. This curve relates the yield on a security to its 
time to maturity. Yields at particular points on the curve are referred 
to as ``constant maturity yields'' and are determined by the Treasury 
from this daily yield curve. The 6-month and 5-year Treasury securities 
rates described below are derived from these yield curves.
    (ii) Short-term savings bond rate. No less frequently than on each 
May 1 and November 1, Treasury announces a short-term savings bond rate. 
To determine this rate, Treasury compiles 6-month Treasury securities 
rates as of the close of business for each day of the previous three 
months and calculates the monthly average for each month, rounding each 
monthly average to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent. The short-
term savings bond rate is then determined by taking 85 percent of the 
three-month average and rounding the result to the nearest one-hundredth 
of one percent. If the regularly scheduled date for the announcement 
(for example, May 1) is a day when the Treasury is not open for 
business, then the announcement is made on the next business day and is 
effective as of the first day of that month. For bonds entitled to 
interest accruals at the short-term savings bond rate, that rate applies 
to the bond's first full semiannual interest accrual period following 
each announcement of the rate.
    (iii) Long-term savings bond rate. No less frequently than on each 
May 1 and November 1, Treasury announces a long-term savings bond rate. 
To determine this rate, Treasury compiles 5-year Treasury securities 
rates as of the close of business for each day of the previous six 
months and calculates the monthly average for each month, rounding each 
monthly average to the nearest one-hundredth of one percent. The long-
term savings bond rate is then determined by taking 85 percent of the 6-
month average and rounding the result to the nearest one-hundredth of 
one percent. If the regularly scheduled date for the announcement (for 
example, May 1) is a day when the Treasury is not open for business, 
then the announcement is made on the next business day and is effective 
as of the first day of that month. For bonds entitled to interest 
accruals at the long- term savings bond rate, that rate applies to the 
bond's first full semiannual interest accrual period following each 
announcement of the rate.
    (iv) Base denomination. All redemption value calculations are 
performed on a hypothetical denomination of $25 having a value at the 
beginning of the first earning period equal to an issue price of $12.50. 
Redemption values for bonds of greater denominations are in direct 
proportion according to the ratio of denominations. For example, if the 
value of a hypothetical $25 denomination is $26.80--i.e., $12.50 issue 
price plus $14.30 accrued interest--on the same redemption date, the 
value of a $50 bond bearing the same issue date is $26.80  x  (50 
 25) or $53.60.
    (v) Issue date. The issue date of a Series EE bond is the first day 
of the month in which payment of the issue price is received by an 
authorized issuing agent.
    (vi) Semiannual earning periods and accrual dates. Bonds bearing 
issue dates of May 1, 1995, through April 1, 1997, earn interest during 
each successive six month period from date of issue to final maturity. 
Interest accrues, immediately following each earning period, on each 
semiannual anniversary of the date of issue, including the date of final 
maturity.
    (vii) Original maturity. Bonds reach original maturity at 17 years 
after date of issue.
    (viii) Final maturity. Bonds reach final maturity at 30 years after 
date of issue. A bond ceases to earn interest at final maturity.
    (2) Interest rates and redemption values for bonds held 5 years or 
less. The interest rate for a Series EE bond bearing an issue date of 
May 1, 1995, through

[[Page 282]]

April 1, 1997, for semiannual earning periods during the first 5 years 
from date of issue, is the short-term savings bond rate determined as 
defined in paragraph (j)(1)(ii) of this section. Redemption values for 
semiannual accrual dates occurring on or before 5 years from date of 
issue are calculated in accordance with paragraph (j)(5) of this 
section.
    (3) Interest rates and redemption values for bonds held 5 years and 
6 months and longer. The interest rate for a Series EE bond bearing an 
issue date of May 1, 1995, through April 1, 1997, for semiannual earning 
periods beginning 5 years from date of issue through original maturity, 
is the long-term savings bond rate determined as defined in paragraph 
(j)(1)(iii) of this section. Redemption values for semiannual accrual 
dates occurring after 5 years from date of issue, through original 
maturity, are calculated in accordance with paragraph (j)(5) of this 
section, except that the redemption value at the date of original 
maturity, as provided in paragraph (j)(1)(vii) of this section, shall 
not be less than the denomination (face amount or face value).
    (4) Interest rates and redemption values for bonds during an 
extended maturity period. From 17 years after date of issue to the final 
maturity date (the ``extended maturity period'') the bond will be 
subject to the terms and conditions in effect when it is issued, and 
will continue to earn interest as described in paragraph (j)(3) of this 
section, unless the terms and conditions applicable to an extended 
maturity period are expressly amended prior to the beginning of such 
period.
    (5) Redemption value calculations. Interest on a bond accrues and 
becomes part of the redemption value which is paid when the bond is 
cashed. The redemption value of a bond on the accrual date immediately 
following each semiannual earning period is determined as follows:
    (i) The applicable long-term or short-term savings bond rate for the 
semiannual earning period is converted to decimal form by dividing by 
100, and is adjusted to a semiannual rate by dividing by 2.
    (ii) Using redemption values for the base denomination, as defined 
in paragraph (j)(1)(iv) of this section, this rate is then multiplied by 
the redemption value of the bond at the beginning of the semiannual 
earning period.
    (iii) The resulting interest amount, rounded to the nearest cent, is 
added to the redemption value of the bond at the beginning of the 
earning period to produce the redemption value at the next semiannual 
accrual date. The redemption value of a bond remains constant between 
accrual dates.
    (6) The Secretary's determination. The determination by the 
Secretary of the Treasury, or his delegate, of the market yields, and 
the long-term and short-term savings bond rates, shall be final and 
conclusive.
    (7) Tables of redemption values. Tables of redemption value are made 
available by the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West Virginia 
26106-1328, prior to the periods during which the redemption values are 
payable.
    (k) Interest rate and redemption values--bonds bearing issue dates 
of May 1, 1997, or thereafter.
    (1) The following definitions apply for determining the interest 
rates and redemption values for bonds bearing issue dates of May 1, 
1997, or thereafter:
    (i) Market yields. Treasury uses market bid yields for bills, notes, 
and bonds to create a yield curve based on the most actively traded 
Treasury securities. This curve relates the yield on a security to its 
time to maturity. Yields at particular points on the curve are referred 
to as ``constant maturity yields'' and are determined by the Treasury 
from this daily yield curve. The 5-year Treasury securities yields 
described below are derived from these yield curves.
    (ii) Savings bonds rate. No less frequently than on each May 1 and 
November 1, Treasury announces a variable market-based savings bonds 
rate. To determine this rate, Treasury compiles 5-year Treasury 
securities yields as of the close of business for each day of the 
previous six months and calculates the monthly average to the nearest 
one-hundredth of one percent. The savings bonds rate is then determined 
by taking 90 percent of the 6-month average and rounding the result to 
the nearest one-hundredth of one

[[Page 283]]

percent. If the regularly scheduled date for the announcement (for 
example, May 1) is a day when the Treasury is not open for business, 
then the announcement is made on the next business day, however, the 
effective date of the rate remains the first day of the month of the 
announcement.
    (iii) Base denomination. All redemption value calculations are 
performed on a hypothetical denomination of $25 having a value at the 
beginning of the first semiannual rate period equal to an issue price of 
$12.50. Redemption values for bonds of greater denominations are in 
direct proportion according to the ratio of denominations.
    (iv) Issue date. The issue date of a Series EE savings bond is the 
first day of the month in which payment of the issue price is received 
by an authorized issuing agent.
    (v) Accrual date. Interest on a Series EE savings bond accrues on 
the first day of each month beginning with the fourth month from the 
date of issue. The redemption value of a bond does not change between 
these accrual dates.
    (vi) Semiannual Rate Periods. Semiannual rate periods are the 6-
month periods beginning on the date of issue and on each semiannual 
anniversary of the date of issue to original maturity.
    (vii) Original maturity. Bonds reach original maturity at 17 years 
after date of issue.
    (viii) Final maturity. Bonds reach final maturity at 30 years after 
the date of issue. Bonds cease to earn interest at final maturity.
    (2) Interest rates and monthly accruals for bonds with issue dates 
of May 1, 1997, or thereafter, through original maturity. Savings bonds 
rates defined in paragraph (k)(1)(ii) of this section apply to earnings 
during the first semiannual rate period beginning on or after the 
effective date of the rate. Interest is credited on the first day of 
each month and compounded semiannually. Interest accrues beginning with 
the fourth month from the date of issue. For example, a bond issued in 
January has interest first credited on May 1, which represents one month 
of interest because of the 3-month interest penalty. The following table 
shows, for any given month of issue with rates announced each May and 
November, the months making up the semiannual rate period during which 
interest is earned at the announced rate (disregarding the penalty for 
bonds redeemed prior to 5 years after the date of issue) and the months 
in which the bonds increase in value. This rate is an annual rate 
compounded semiannually.

    (3) Interest penalty for Series EE bonds with issue dates of May 1, 
1997, or thereafter, redeemed less than 5 years following the issue 
dates. If a Series EE savings bond with an issue date of May 1, 1997, or 
thereafter, is redeemed less than five years following the date of 
issue, the overall earning period from the date of issue will be reduced 
by three months. For example, if a bond issued January 1, 1998, is 
redeemed 9 months later on October 1, 1998, the redemption value will be 
determined by applying the redemption value calculation formula 
described in paragraph (k)(4) of this section and the savings bonds rate 
for that bond at 6 months after the date of issue on July 1, 1998. The 
redemption value of a bond subject to the 3-month interest penalty shall 
not be reduced below the issue price. This penalty does not apply to 
bonds redeemed 5 years or more after the date of issue.
    (4) Redemption value calculations.
    (i) Interest on a bond accrues and becomes part of the redemption 
value which is paid when the bond is surrendered for payment. The 
redemption value of a bond at original maturity shall not be less than 
the face amount/denomination of the bond.
    (ii)(A) The redemption value of a bond for the accrual date (the 
first day of each month beginning with the fourth month from the date of 
issue) is determined in accordance with this section and the following 
formula:

FV = PV  x  ][1+(i  
2)](m6)|| where
FV (future value) = redemption value on redemption date rounded to the 
nearest cent.
PV (present value) = redemption value at the beginning of the semiannual 
rate period as defined in paragraph (k)(l)(vi) of this section.
i = savings bonds rate as defined in paragraph (k)(1)(ii) of this 
section converted to decimal form by dividing by 100.
m = number of full calendar months outstanding during the semiannual 
rate period.

    (B) The following hypothetical example illustrates how this formula 
is applied:

    Example, assume a hypothetical savings bonds rate of 5.00% effective 
May 1, 2002, for a bond denominated at $25, with an issue date of 
September 1, 1997 and a redemption value of $16.00 as of September 1, 
2002. The February 1, 2003, redemption value is calculated as follows: 
Bonds issue dated in September have semiannual rate periods beginning 
each March 1 and September 1. The first semiannual rate period to begin 
on or after the effective date of the May 1, 2002, rate would be the 
period beginning September 1, 2002. PV, the present value, would be the 
value of the bond at the beginning of the semiannual rate period, on 
September 1, 2002. The savings bonds rate of 5.00% converted to a 
decimal would be 0.05. The number of months, m, is 5 since 5 full 
calendar months (September through January) have lapsed since the 
beginning of the rate period. FV is then the result of the formula:

FV = $16.00  x { [1 + (0.05  2)](56)} = 
          $16.33 after rounding to the nearest cent.

    Using the example, the FV of a savings bond with a $50 or larger 
denomination can be determined by applying the appropriate multiple, for 
example: $16.33  x  ($50.00  $25.00) for a bond with a $50.00 
face amount; or $16.33  x  ($100.00  $25.00) for a bond with a 
$100.00 face amount.

    (5) Interest rates and redemption values for bonds during an 
extended maturity period. From 17 years after date of issue to the final 
maturity date (the ``extended maturity period'') the bond will be 
subject to the terms and conditions in effect when it is issued and will 
continue to earn interest as described in paragraph (k)(2) of this 
section, unless the terms and conditions applicable to an extended 
maturity period are expressly amended prior to the beginning of such 
period.
    (6) The Secretary's determination. The determination by the 
Secretary of the Treasury, or his delegate, of market yields, savings 
bonds rates, rates applicable during any extended maturity period, and 
savings bond redemption values shall be final and conclusive.
    (7) Tables of redemption values. Tables of redemption values are 
made available by the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, West 
Virginia 26106-1328. Redemption values published in such tables reflect 
the 3-month interest penalty applied to bonds redeemed prior to 5 years 
from the date of issue.

Sec. 351.3  Registration and issue.

    (a) Registration. Bonds may be registered as set forth in subpart B 
of 31 CFR part 353, also published as Department of the Treasury 
Circular, Public Debt Series No. 3-80.
    (b) Validity of issue. A bond is validly issued when it (1) is 
registered as provided in Circular No. 3-80, and (2) bears an issue 
date, as well as the validation indicia of an authorized issuing agent.
    (c) Taxpayer identifying number. The inscription of a bond must 
include the taxpayer identifying number of the owner or first-named 
coowner. The taxpayer identifying number of the second-named coowner or 
beneficiary is not required but its inclusion is desirable. If the bond 
is being purchased as a gift or award and the owner's taxpayer 
identifying number is not known, the taxpayer identifying number of the 
purchaser must be included in the inscription on the bond.
    (d) Restrictions on chain letters. The issuance of bonds in the 
furtherance of a chain letter or pyramid scheme is considered to be 
against the public interest and is prohibited. An issuing agent is 
authorized to refuse to issue a bond if there is reason to believe that 
a purchase is in connection with a chain letter and the agent's decision 
is final.
[55 FR 567, Jan. 5, 1990, as amended at 57 FR 14285, Apr. 17, 1992]



Sec. 351.4  Limitation on purchases.

    The amount of Series EE bonds which may be purchased in the name of 
any one person, in any one calendar year, is limited to $30,000 (face 
amount). Subpart C of Circular No. 3-80 (31 CFR part 353) contains the 
rules governing the computation of amounts and the special limitation 
for employee plans.



Sec. 351.5  Purchase of bonds.

    (a) Payroll plans. Bonds in $100 and higher denominations may be 
purchased through deductions from the pay of employees of organizations 
that maintain payroll savings plans. The bonds must be issued by an 
authorized issuing agent.
    (b) Over-the-counter/mail--(1) Through financial institutions. Bonds 
registered in the names of individuals in their own right may be 
purchased through any financial institution, i.e., bank, savings 
association, etc., qualified as an issuing agent. In most instances, the 
issuing agent will forward purchase applications to Federal Reserve 
Banks (see Sec. 351.12) for processing and bond issuance.
    (2) Remittance. The application for purchase of a bond must be 
accompanied by the remittance to cover the issue price. Checks or other 
forms of exchange will be accepted subject to collection. Checks payable 
by endorsement are not acceptable. (For requirements relating to the 
remittance of sales proceeds by issuing agents, see Item 4, subpart A, 
in the appendix to 31 CFR part 317).
    (c) Bond-a-month plan. A depositor of a financial institution 
qualified as an issuing agent may purchase bonds through a system of 
regular monthly withdrawals from the depositor's account.
    (d) Employee thrift, savings, vacation, and similar plans. Bonds 
registered in the names of trustees of employee plans may be purchased 
in book-entry form in $100 multiples through an authorized Federal 
Reserve Bank after Bureau of the Public Debt approval of the plan as 
eligible for the special limitation under 31 CFR 353.13, also published 
as section 353.13 of Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt 
Series No. 3-80.
[55 FR 567, Jan. 5, 1990, as amended at 57 FR 14285, Apr. 17, 1992; 59 
FR 10540, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 351.6  Delivery of bonds.

    Issuing agents are authorized to arrange for the delivery of Series 
EE bonds. Mail deliveries are made at the risk and expense of the United 
States to the address given by the purchaser, if it is within the United 
States, its territories or possessions, or the Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico. No mail deliveries elsewhere will be made, except to residents of 
Mexico and Canada, who participate in payroll saving plans, and to 
residents of what was formerly the Panama Canal Zone. Bonds purchased by 
a citizen of the United States residing abroad will be delivered only to 
such address in the United States as the purchaser directs.

[[Page 287]]



Sec. 351.7  Payment or redemption.

    (a) Incorporated banks, savings and loan associations and other 
financial institutions--(1) Payment in general. A financial institution 
qualified as a paying agent under the provisions 31 CFR part 321, also 
published as Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 
750, will pay the current redemption value of a Series EE bond presented 
for payment by an individual whose name is inscribed on the bond as 
owner or coowner, provided:
    (i) The bond is in order for payment; and
    (ii) The presenter establishes his or her identity to the 
satisfaction of the agent, in accordance with Treasury instructions and 
identification guidelines, and signs and completes the request for 
payment.
    (2) Payment to beneficiary or legal representative. A paying agent 
may (but is not required to) pay the current redemption value of a 
Series EE bond upon the request of a beneficiary, if he or she survives 
the owner, or a legal representative designated in the bond registration 
by name and capacity, or a court-appointed legal representative of the 
last-deceased registrant's estate provided:
    (i) The bond is in order for payment; and
    (ii) The presenter establishes his or her identity to the 
satisfaction of the agent in accordance with Treasury instructions and 
identification guidelines, and otherwise complies with evidentiary 
requirements.
    (b) Federal Reserve Banks and Branches. A Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch referred to in Sec. 351.12 will pay the current redemption value 
of a Series EE bond presented for payment, provided the bond is in order 
for payment and the request for payment on the bond is properly signed 
and certified in accordance with Circular No. 3-80.
[55 FR 567, Jan. 5, 1990, as amended at 57 FR 14285, Apr. 17, 1992; 59 
FR 10540, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 351.8  Taxation.

    (a) General. The increment in value, represented by the difference 
between the issue price of a Series EE bond and the redemption value 
received for it, is interest. This interest is subject to all taxes 
imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended. The bonds 
are subject to estate, inheritance, gift, or other excise taxes, whether 
Federal or State, but are exempt from all other taxation now or 
hereafter imposed on the principal or interest by any State, any 
possession of the United States or any local taxing authority.
    (b) Federal income tax on bonds. An owner of Series EE bonds may use 
either of the following two methods for reporting the increase in the 
redemption value of the bond for Federal income tax purposes:
    (1) Cash basis. Defer reporting the increase to the year of 
maturity, redemption, or other disposition, whichever is earlier; or
    (2) Accrua1 basis. Elect to report the increase each year as it 
accrues, in which case the election applies to all Series EE bonds then 
owned by the taxpayer and those subsequently acquired as well as to any 
other obligations purchased on a discount basis, such as savings bonds 
of Series E.
    (3) If the method in paragraph (b)(1) of this section is used, the 
taxpayer may change to the method in paragraph (b)(2) of this section 
without obtaining permission from the Internal Revenue Service. However, 
once the election to use the method in paragraph (b)(2) of this section 
is made, the taxpayer may not change the method of reporting unless he 
or she obtains permission from the Internal Revenue Service. For further 
information, the District Director of the taxpayer's district, or the 
Internal Revenue Service, Washington, DC 20224, should be consulted.
    (c) Tax-deferred exchanges. Department of the Treasury Circular, 
Public Debt Series No. 2-80 (31 CFR part 352), authorizes the exchange 
of Series EE bonds for Series HH bonds, with a continuation of the tax-
deferral privilege. The rules governing tax-deferred exchanges are 
contained in that circular.
    (d) Reissue. A reissue that affects the rights of any of the persons 
named on a Series EE bond may have a tax consequence.

[[Page 288]]



Sec. 351.9  Education savings bond program.

    A bond owner or coowner may be able to exclude from income for 
Federal income tax purposes all or part of the interest received on the 
redemption of qualified U.S. Savings Bonds during the year if that owner 
or coowner paid qualified higher education expenses during the same year 
and certain other conditions are satisfied. This exclusion is known as 
the Education Savings Bond Program, and authoritative information about 
it can be found in Internal Revenue Service Publication 17, ``Your 
Federal Income Tax'', and Publication 550, ``Investment Income and 
Expenses'', available from your District Director of the Internal 
Revenue Service.
[62 FR 24283, May 2, 1997]



Sec. 351.10  Reservation as to issue of bonds.

    The Commissioner of the Public Debt, as delegate of the Secretary of 
the Treasury, is authorized to reject any application for Series EE 
bonds, in whole or in part, and to refuse to issue or permit to be 
issued any bonds in any case or class of cases, if he deems the action 
to be in the public interest, and his action in any such respect is 
final.



Sec. 351.11  Waiver.

    The Commissioner of the Public Debt, as delegate of the Secretary of 
the Treasury, may waive or modify any provision of this Circular in any 
particular case or class of cases for the convenience of the United 
States or in order to relieve any person or persons of unnecessary 
hardship (a) if such action would not be inconsistent with law or 
equity, (b) if it does not impair any existing rights, and (c) if he is 
satisfied that such action would not subject the United States to any 
substantial expense or liability.



Sec. 351.12  Fiscal agents.

    (a) Federal Reserve Banks and Branches referred to below, as fiscal 
agents of the United States, are authorized to perform such services as 
may be requested of them by the Secretary of the Treasury, or his or her 
delegate, in connection with the issue, servicing and redemption of 
Series EE bonds.
    (b)(1) The following Federal Reserve Offices have been designated to 
provide savings bond services:

    The Secretary of the Treasury hereby offers to the people of the 
United States, United States Savings Bonds of Series HH in exchange for

Treasury.
[54 FR 40249, Sept. 29, 1989, as amended at 58 FR 60947, Nov. 18, 1993]



Sec. 352.1  Governing regulations.

    Series HH bonds are subject to the regulations of the Department of 
the Treasury, now or hereafter prescribed, governing United States 
Savings Bonds of Series EE and HH contained in Department of the 
Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 3-80, as amended (31 CFR part 
353), hereinafter referred to as Circular No. 3-80.



Sec. 352.2  Description of bonds.

    (a) General. Series HH bonds are issued only in registered form and 
are nontransferable. The bonds are distinguishable by the portraits, 
color, border design, tax-deferral legend, and text material.
    (b) Denominations and prices. Series HH bonds are issued at face 
amount and are in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000.
    (c) Term. Each bond bears an issue date which is the date from which 
interest is earned. The date is established as provided in 
Sec. 352.7(f). Series HH bonds have an original maturity period of 10 
years and have been granted an extended maturity period of 10 years; 
they will reach final maturity 20 years from their issue dates.
    (d) Redemption. A Series HH bond may be redeemed after six months 
from its issue date. The Secretary of the Treasury may not call Series 
HH bonds for redemption prior to maturity. In any case where Series HH 
bonds are surrendered to an authorized paying agent for redemption in 
the month prior to an interest payment date, redemption will not be 
deferred but will be made in regular course, unless the presenter 
specifically requests that the transaction be delayed until that date. A 
request to defer redemption made more than one month preceding the 
interest payment date will not be accepted.
    (e) Investment yield (interest). (1) During original maturity. 
Interest payments on Series HH bonds will produce the investment yields 
specified below during their original maturity period:
    (i) Current offering. Series HH bonds issued on or after March 1, 
1993, yield 4 percent per annum, paid semiannually, to original 
maturity. See Table 1 in the Appendix to this Circular.
    (ii) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1986, through February 1, 
1993. Series HH bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1986, through

original maturity.
    (iii) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1986, through September 
1, 1989. Series HH bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1986, through 
September 1, 1989, will yield 6 percent per annum, paid semiannually, to 
original maturity.
    (iv) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1982, through October 1, 
1986. Series HH bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1982, through 
October 1, 1986, will yield 7.5 percent per annum, paid semiannually, to 
original maturity.

semiannually, to original maturity.
    (vi) Bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1980, through April 1, 
1981. Series HH bonds with issue dates of November 1, 1980, through 
April 1, 1981, were originally offered to yield 7.5 percent per annum, 
paid semiannually. The yield to original maturity was increased by 1 
percent, effective with the first full semiannual interest accrual 
period beginning on or after May 1, 1981.
    (vii) Bonds with issue dates of January 1, 1980, through October 1, 
1980. Series HH bonds with issue dates of January 1, 1980, through 
October 1, 1980, were originally offered to yield 6.5 percent per annum,

percent, effective with the first full semiannual interest accrual 
period beginning on or after November 1, 1980, and an additional 1 
percent, effective with the first full semiannual interest accrual 
period beginning on or after May 1, 1981.
    (2) During extended maturity. The investment yield during the 10-
year extended maturity period authorized for Series HH bonds is 4 
percent per annum, paid semiannually, unless changed prior to the 
beginning of such period, for any Series HH bond that entered or enter 
such period on or after March 1, 1993; and, 6 percent per annum, paid 
semiannually, for any Series HH bond that entered into such period from 
January 1, 1990, through February 1, 1993.
    (f) Payment of interest. The interest on a Series HH bond is paid 
semiannually beginning six months from the issue date. Interest ceases 
at final maturity or, if the bond is redeemed before final maturity, as 
of the end of the interest period preceding the date of redemption. If 
the redemption date falls on an interest payment date, interest ceases 
on that date.
    (1) Bonds issued on or after October 1, 1989. Interest on Series HH 
bonds issued on or after October 1, 1989, will be paid by the automated

determines that extraordinary circumstances warrant payment by check or 
other means.

bonds issued prior to October 1, 1989, will be paid as follows:
    (i) By check drawn to the order of the registered owner or both 
coowners; or
    (ii) Upon request, by the ACH method to the owner or coowner's 
account at a financial institution.

[54 FR 40249, Sept. 29, 1989, as amended at 59 FR 10540, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 352.6  [Reserved]



Sec. 352.7  Issues on exchange.

    (a) Securities eligible for exchange. Owners may exchange United 
States Savings Bonds of Series E and EE and United States Savings Notes 
(Freedom Shares) at their current redemption values for Series HH bonds. 
Series E bonds and savings notes remain eligible for exchange for a 
period of one year from the month in which they reached final maturity. 
Series EE bonds become eligible for exchange six months after their 
issue dates.
    (b) Basis for issue. Series HH bonds will be issued on exchange by 
an authorized issuing agent upon receipt of a properly executed exchange 
application with eligible securities, and additional cash, if any, and 
any supporting evidence that may be required under the regulations. If 
eligible securities are submitted directly to a Federal Reserve Bank 
referred to in Sec. 351.13, each must bear a properly signed and 
certified request for payment. Checks in payment of additional cash 
needed to complete a transaction (see paragraph (d) of this section) 
must be drawn to the order of the Federal Reserve Bank.
    (c) Role of financial institutions. Department of the Treasury 
Circular No. 750, current revision (31 CFR part 321), authorizes 
financial institutions qualified as paying agents for savings bonds and 
notes to redeem eligible securities presented for exchange and to 
forward an exchange application and full payment to a Federal Reserve 
Bank referred to in Sec. 351.13 for the issue of Series HH bonds. The 
securities redeemed on exchange by such an institution must be 
securities which it is authorized to redeem for cash.
    (d) Computation of issue price. The total current redemption value 
of the eligible securities submitted for exchange in any one transaction 
must be $500 or more. If the current redemption value is an even 
multiple of $500, Series HH bonds must be issued in that exact amount. 
If the current redemption value exceeds, but is not an even multiple of, 
$500, the owner has the option either:
    (1) To add the cash necessary to bring the amount of the application 
to the next higher multiple of $500, or
    (2) To receive a payment to reduce the amount of the application to 
the next lower multiple of $500.
    (e) Registration. A Series HH bond issued on exchange may be 
registered in any form authorized in subpart B of Circular No. 3-80, 
subject to the following restrictions:
    (1) If the securities submitted for exchange are in single ownership 
form, the owner must be named as owner or first-named coowner on the 
Series HH bonds. A coowner or beneficiary may be named.
    (2) If the securities submitted for exchange are in coownership 
form, and one coowner is the ``principal coowner'', that person must be 
named as owner or first-named coowner on the Series HH bonds. A coowner 
or beneficiary may also be named. The ``principal coowner'' is the 
coowner who purchased the securities presented for exchange with his or 
her own funds, or received them as a gift, inheritance or legacy, or as 
a result of judicial proceedings, and had them reissued in coownership 
form, provided he or she has received no contribution in money or 
money's worth for designating the other coowner on the securities.
    (3) If the securities presented for exchange are in coownership 
form, and both coowners shared in their purchase

[[Page 300]]

or received them jointly as a gift, inheritance, or legacy or as a 
result of judicial proceedings, both persons must be named as coowners 
on the Series HH bonds.
    (4) If the securities presented for exchange are in beneficiary 
form, the owner must be named on the Series HH bonds as owner or first-
named coowner. If the owner is deceased, a surviving beneficiary must be 
named as owner or first-named coowner. In either case, a coowner or 
beneficiary may also be named.
    (f) Issue date. Series HH bonds issued on exchange will be dated as 
of the first day of the month in which the eligible securities presented 
for exchange are redeemed by an authorized paying agent, as evidenced in 
the payment stamp on the securities and the exchange application.
    (g) Tax-deferred exchanges. (1) Continuation of tax deferral. 
Pursuant to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as 
amended, an owner who has not been reporting the interest on his or her 
Series E or EE bonds and savings notes on an accrual basis for Federal 
income tax purposes, and who exchanges those securities for Series HH 
bonds, may continue to defer reporting the interest on the securities 
exchanged until the taxable year in which the Series HH bonds received 
in the exchange reach final maturity, are redeemed, or are otherwise 
disposed of, whichever is earlier. A reissue transaction that affects 
any of the persons required to be named on the Series HH bonds, as set 
forth in paragraph (e) of this section, may result in termination of the 
tax deferral privilege.
    (2) Tax deferral legend. Each bond issued in a tax-deferred exchange 
shall bear a legend showing how much of its issue price represents 
interest on the securities exchanged. This interest must be treated as 
income for Federal income tax purposes and reported in accordance with 
paragraph (g)(1) of this section.
    (3) Reporting of interest paid to owner. To the extent that it 
represents interest earned on the securities presented for exchange, an 
amount paid to an owner in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section 
is reportable as income for Federal income tax purposes for the year in 
which it is paid. Pursuant to 26 CFR 1.6049.4, a paying agent is 
required to report interest income of $10 or more included in any amount 
paid in an exchange transaction to the payee and to the Internal Revenue 
Service on Form 1099-INT or an approved substitute. A separate report 
may be made for each exchange transaction in which interest in the 
amount of $10 or more is paid, or all interest paid in both cash 
redemption and exchange transactions may be aggregated and reported 
annually should the total amount be $10 or more.
    (h) Exchanges without tax deferral. The rules prescribed for 
exchanges under paragraphs (a) through (f) of this section also apply to 
exchanges by owners who report the interest earned on their bonds of 
Series E and EE and savings notes annually for Federal income tax 
purposes, or elect to report all such interest that was not previously 
reported for the taxable year of the exchange. Series HH bonds issued in 
a nontax-deferred exchange shall show a ``0'' in the tax-deferral 
legend.
[54 FR 40249, Sept. 29, 1989, as amended at 59 FR 10540, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 352.8  Reinvestment of matured Series H bonds.

    (a) General. The proceeds of matured Series H bonds, whether 
purchased for cash or issued in exchange for other securities, may be 
reinvested in Series HH bonds. Tax deferral granted to interest earned 
on securities exchanged for Series H bonds may not be continued when the 
Series H bonds reach final maturity and their proceeds are reinvested in 
Series HH bonds. The amount appearing in the legend on a matured Series 
H bond on which tax deferral was granted must be reported for Federal 
income tax purposes for the year of such final maturity.
    (b) Rules. The reinvestment transaction will be subject to the rules 
governing exchanges, as set forth in Sec. 352.7 of this Circular, and 
the Series HH bonds issued on reinvestment will be identical in all 
respects with those issued in a non-tax-deferred exchange.



Sec. 352.9  Delivery of bonds.

    Authorized issuing agents will deliver Series HH bonds by mail at 
the

[[Page 301]]

risk and expense of the United States to the address given by the 
applicant, if it is within the United States, one of its territories or 
possessions, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. No mail deliveries 
elsewhere will be made. Bonds acquired by a citizen of the United States 
residing abroad will be delivered only to such address in the United 
States as the applicant directs.



Sec. 352.10  Taxation.

    The interest paid on Series HH bonds is subject to all taxes imposed 
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended. The bonds are

                         Subpart B--Registration



Sec. 353.5  General rules.

    (a) Registration is conclusive of ownership. Savings bonds are 
issued only in registered form. The registration must express the actual 
ownership of, and interest in, the bond. The registration is conclusive 
of ownership, except as provided in Sec. 353.49.
    (b) Requests for registration. Registrations requested must be 
clear, accurate and complete, conform substantially with one of the 
forms set forth in this subpart, and include the taxpayer identifying 
number of the owner or first-named coowner. The taxpayer identifying 
number of the second-named coowner or beneficiary is not required but 
its inclusion is desirable. The registration of all bonds owned by the 
same person, organization, or fiduciary should be uniform with respect 
to the name of the owner and any description of the fiduciary capacity. 
An individual should be designated by the name he or she is ordinarily 
known by or uses in business, including at least one full given name. 
The name may be preceded or followed by any applicable title, such as 
Miss, Mr., Mrs., Ms., Dr., Rev., M.D., or D.D.. A suffix, such as Sr. or 
Jr., must be included when ordinarily used or when necessary to 
distinguish the owner from another member of his family. A married 
woman's own given name, not that of her husband, must be used; for 
example, Mary A. Jones or Mrs. Mary A. Jones, NOT Mrs. Frank B. Jones. 
The address must include, where appropriate, the number and street, 
route, or any other local feature, city, State, and ZIP Code.
    (c) Inscription of bonds purchased as gifts. If the bonds are 
purchased as gifts, awards, prizes, etc., and the taxpayer identifying 
number of the intended owners is not known, the purchaser's number must 
be furnished. Bonds so inscribed will not be associated with the 
purchaser's own holdings. A bond registered in the name of a purchaser 
with another person as coowner or beneficiary is not considered a gift 
or an award. If the purchaser so requests, a bond may be inscribed to 
provide a ``Mail to'' instruction, followed by a delivery name and 
address. No rights of ownership are conferred on such designee.
[44 FR 76441, Dec. 26, 1979, as amended at 55 FR 575, Jan. 5, 1990]



Sec. 353.6  Restrictions on registration.

    (a) Natural persons. Only an individual in his or her own right may 
be designated as coowner or beneficiary along with any other individual, 
whether on original issue or reissue, except as provided in 
Sec. 353.7(f).
    (b) Residence. The designation of an owner or first-named coowner is 
restricted, on original issue only, to persons (whether individuals or 
others) who are:
    (1) Residents of the United States, its territories or possessions, 
or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
    (2) Citizens of the United States residing abroad;
    (3) Civilian employees of the United States or members of its armed 
forces, regardless of their residence or citizenship; and
    (4) Residents of Canada or Mexico who work in the United States but 
only if the bonds are purchased on a payroll deduction plan and the 
owner provides a taxpayer identifying number.

A nonresident alien may be designated coowner or beneficiary or, on 
authorized reissue, owner, unless the nonresident alien is a resident of 
an area with respect to which the Department of the Treasury restricts 
or regulates the delivery of checks drawn against funds of the United 
States or its agencies or instrumentalities. See Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR part 211). 
Registration is not permitted in any form which includes the name of any 
alien who is a resident of any restricted area.
    (c) Minors. (1) Minors may purchase with their wages, earnings, or 
other funds belonging to them and under

[[Page 306]]

their control bonds registered in their names alone or with a coowner or 
beneficiary.
    (2) Bonds purchased by another person with funds belonging to a 
minor not under legal guardianship or similar fiduciary estate must be 
registered, without a coowner or beneficiary, in the name of the minor 
or a natural guardian on behalf of a minor.
    (3) Bonds purchased with funds of another may be registered to name 
the minor as owner, coowner, or beneficiary. If the minor is under legal 
guardianship or similar fiduciary estate, the registration must include 
an appropriate reference to it.
    (4) Bonds purchased as a gift to a minor under a gift-to-minors 
statute must be registered as prescribed by the statute and no coowner 
or beneficiary may be named.
    (5) Bonds purchased by a representative of a minor's estate must be 
registered in the name of the minor and must include in the registration 
an appropriate reference to the guardianship or similar fiduciary 
estate. Bonds purchased by a representative of the estates of two or 
more minors, even though appointed in a single proceeding, must be 
registered in the name of each minor separately with appropriate 
reference to the guardianship or similar fiduciary estate.
    (d) Incompetents. Bonds may be registered to name as owner, coowner, 
or beneficiary an incompetent for whose estate a guardian or similar 
representative has been appointed, except that a coowner or beneficiary 
may not be named on bonds purchased with funds belonging to the 
incompetent. The registration must include appropriate reference to the 
guardianship or similar fiduciary estate. Bonds should not be registered 
in the name of an incompetent unless there is a representative for his 
or her estate, except as provided in Sec. 353.64.



Sec. 353.7  Authorized forms of registration.

    Subject to any limitations or restrictions contained in these 
regulations on the right of any person to be named as owner, coowner, or 
beneficiary, bonds should be registered as indicated below. A savings 
bond inscribed in the form not substantially in agreement with one of 
the forms authorized by this subpart is not considered validly issued.
    (a) Natural persons. A bond may be registered in the names of 
individuals in their own right, but only in one of the forms authorized 
by this paragraph.
    (1) Single ownership form. A bond may be registered in the name of 
one individual. Example:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789.

    (2) Coownership form. A bond may be registered in the names of two 
individuals in the alternative as coowners. The form of registration ``A 
and B'' is not authorized. Examples:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 or Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321.
    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 or (Miss, Ms. or Mrs.) Ella S. Jones.
    Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321 or John A. Jones.

    (3) Beneficiary form. A bond may be registered in the name of one 
individual payable on death to another. ``Payable on death to'' may be 
abbreviated to ``P.O.D.'' Examples:

    John A. Jones 123-45-6789 P.O.D. Ella S. Jones 987-65-4321.

    (b) Fiduciaries (including legal guardians and similar 
representatives, certain custodians, natural guardians, executors, 
administrators, and trustees)--(1) General. A bond may be registered in 
the name of any person or persons or any organization acting as 
fiduciary of a single fiduciary estate, but not where the fiduciary will 
hold the bond merely or principally as security for the performance of a 
duty, obligation, or service. Registration should conform to a form 
authorized by this paragraph. A coowner or beneficiary may be named only 
in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sec. 353.6 (c) and (d). 
A common trust fund established and maintained by a financial 
institution authorized to act as a fiduciary will be considered a single 
fiduciary estate within the meaning of these regulations.
    (2) Legal guardians, conservators, similar representatives, certain 
custodians. A bond may be registered in the name

[[Page 307]]

and title or capacity of the legally appointed or authorized 
representative of the estate of a minor, incompetent, aged or infirm 
person, absentee, et al., or in the name of that individual followed by 
an appropriate reference to the estate. Examples:

    Tenth National Bank, guardian (or conservator, trustee, etc.) of the 
estate of George N. Brown 123-45-6789, a minor (or an incompetent, aged

    (3) Natural guardians. A bond may be registered in the name of 
either parent (natural and adoptive) of a minor, as natural guardian. 
The registration of a bond in this form is considered as establishing a 
fiduciary relationship. A coowner or beneficiary may be named but only 
if the funds used to purchase the bonds do not belong to the minor. 
Examples:

    John A. Jones, as natural guardian for Henry M. Jones 123-45-6789.

name of the representative appointed by a court to act for an estate of 
a decedent, or in the name of an executor authorized to administer a 
trust under the terms of a will although not named trustee. The name and 
capacity of all the representatives as shown in the letters of 
appointment must be included in the registration and be followed by an 
adequate indentifying reference to the estate. Examples:

administrators of the estate) of Robert J. Smith, deceased, 12-3456789.

and title of the trustee of a trust estate, or in the name of a life 
tenant, followed by an adequate identifying reference to the authority 
governing the trust or life tenancy. Examples:

    Thomas J. White and Tenth National Bank, trustees under the will of 
Robert J. Smith, deceased, 12-3456789.

    Paul E. White, trustee under declaration of trust dated 2/1/80, 12-
3456789.

    (i) If the trust instrument designates by title only an officer of a 
board or an organization as trustee, only the title of the officer 
should be used. Example:

    Chairman, Board of Trustees, First Church of Christ, Scientist, of 
Chicago, Illinois, in trust under the will of Robert J. Smith, deceased, 
12-3456789.

    (ii) The names of all trustees, in the form used in the trust 
instrument, must be included in the registration, except as follows:
    (A) If there are several trustees designated as a board or they are 
required to act as a unit, their names may be omitted and the words 
``Board of Trustees'' substituted for the word ``trustee''. Example:


[[Page 308]]


    Board of Trustees of Immediate Relief Trust of Federal Aid 
Association, under trust indenture dated 2/1/80, 12-3456789.

    (B) If the trustees do not constitute a board or are not required to 
act as a unit, and are too numerous to be designated in the registration 
by names and title, some or all the names may be omitted. Examples:

    John A. Smith, Henry B. Jones, et al., trustees under the will of 
Edwin O. Mann, deceased, 12-3456789.
    Trustees under the will of Edwin O. Mann, deceased, 12-3456789.

be registered in the name and title, or title alone, of the trustee of 
an eligible employee thrift, savings, vacation or similar plan, as

that the trustees shall serve for a limited term, their names may be 
omitted. Examples:

Company, U/A with the company, dated March 31, 1980, 12-3456789.

as agent under an agreement with a religious, educational, charitable or 
non-profit organization, whether or not incorporated, if the agent holds 
funds for the sole purpose of investing them and paying the income to 
the organization. The name and designation of the agent must be followed 
by an adequate reference to the agreement. Examples:

Church of the Holy Trinity, dated 12/28/80, 12-3456789.

               Subpart C--Limitations on Annual Purchases



Sec. 353.10  Amounts which may be purchased.

    The amount of savings bonds of Series EE and HH which may be 
purchased and held, in the name of any one person in any one calendar 
year, is computed according to the provisions of Sec. 353.11 and is 
limited as follows:
    (a) Series EE--(1) General annual limitation. $30,000 (face amount).
    (2) Special limitation. $4,000 (face amount) multiplied by the 
highest number of employees participating in an eligible employee plan, 
as defined in Sec. 353.13, at any time during the calendar year in which 
the bonds are issued.
    (b) Series HH--(1) General annual limitation. $20,000 (face amount).
    (2) Special limitation. $200,000 (face amount) for bonds received in 
a calendar year as gifts by an organization which at the time of 
purchase was an exempt organization under the terms of 26 CFR 
1.501(c)(3)-1.



Sec. 353.11  Computation of amount.

    (a) General. The purchases of bonds in the name of any person in an 
individual capacity are computed separately from purchases in a 
fiduciary capacity. A pension or retirement fund, or an investment, 
insurance, annuity, or similar fund or trust is regarded as an entity, 
regardless of the number of beneficiaries or the manner in which their 
shares or interests are established, determined, or segregated.
    (b) Bonds included in computation. In computing the purchases for 
each person, the following outstanding bonds are included:
    (1) All bonds registered in the name of that person alone;
    (2) All bonds registered in the name of the representative of the 
estate of that person; and
    (3) All bonds registered in the name of that person as coowner. 
However, in computing the amount of bonds of each series held in 
coownership form, the limitation may be applied to the holdings of 
either of the coowners or apportioned between them.
    (c) Bonds excluded from computation. In computing the purchases for 
each person, the following are excluded:
    (1) Bonds on which that person is named beneficiary;
    (2) Bonds to which that person has become entitled--
    (i) Under Sec. 353.70 as surviving beneficiary upon the death of the 
registered owner;
    (ii) As an heir or a legatee of the deceased owner;
    (iii) By virtue of the termination of a trust or the happening of a 
similar event;
    (3) Bonds issued in an authorized exchange or reinvestment; and
    (4) Bonds that are purchased and redeemed within the same calendar 
year.



Sec. 353.12  Disposition of excess.

    If any person at any time has savings bonds issued during any one 
calendar year in excess of the prescribed amount, instructions should be 
obtained from the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26101, for 
appropriate adjustment of the excess. Under the conditions specified in 
Sec. 353.90, the Commissioner of the Public Debt may permit excess 
purchases to stand in any particular case or class of cases.



Sec. 353.13  Employee plans--Conditions of eligibility.

    (a) Definition of plan. Employee thrift, savings, vacation and 
similar plans are contributory plans established by the employer for the 
exclusive and irrevocable benefit of its employees or their 
beneficiaries. Each plan must afford employees the means of making 
regular savings from their wages through payroll deductions and provide 
for employer contributions to be added to these savings.
    (b) Definition of terms used in this section. (1) The term assets 
means all the employees' contributions and assets purchased with them 
and the employer's contributions and assets purchased with them, as well 
as accretions, such as dividends on stock, the increment in value on 
bonds and all other income; but, notwithstanding any other provision of 
this section, the right to demand and receive all assets credited to the 
account of an employee shall not

[[Page 311]]

be construed to require the distribution of assets in kind when it would 
not be possible or practicable to make such a distribution; for example, 
Series EE bonds may not be reissued in unauthorized denominations.
    (2) The word beneficiary means: (i) The person or persons, if any, 
designated by the employee in accordance with the terms of the plan to 
receive the benefits of the plan upon the employee's death or (ii) the 
estate of the employee.
    (c) Conditions of eligibility. An employee plan must conform to the 
following rules in order to be eligible for the special limitation 
provided in Sec. 353.10.
    (1) Crediting of assets. All assets of a plan must be credited to 
the individual accounts of participating employees and may be 
distributed only to them or their beneficiaries, except as provided in 
paragraph (c)(3) of this section.
    (2) Purchase of bonds. Bonds may be purchased only with assets 
credited to the accounts of participating employees and only if the 
amount taken from any account at any time for that purpose is equal to 
the purchase price of a bond or bonds in an authorized denomination or 
denominations, and shares in the bonds are credited to the accounts of 
the individuals from which the purchase price was derived, in amounts 
corresponding with their shares. For example, if $50 credited to the 
account of John Jones is commingled with funds credited to the accounts 
of other employees to make a total of $5,000 with which a Series EE bond 
in the denomination of $10,000 (face amount) is purchased in December 
1980 and registered in the name and title of the trustee, the plan must 
provide, in effect, that John Jones' account be credited to show that he 
is the owner of a Series EE bond in the denomination of $100 (face 
amount) bearing an issue date of December 1, 1980.
    (3) Irrevocable right of withdrawal. Each participating employee has 
an irrevocable right to request and receive from the trustee all assets 
credited to the employee's account (or their value, if the employee 
prefers) without regard to any conditions other than the loss or 
suspension of the privilege of participating further in the plan. A plan 
may limit or modify such right in any manner required for qualification 
of the plan under section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (26 
U.S.C. section 401).
    (4) Rights of beneficiary. Upon the death of an employee, his or her 
beneficiary shall have the absolute and unconditional right to demand 
and receive from the trustee all assets credited to the account of the 
employee or their value, if he or she so prefers.
    (5) Reissue or payment upon distribution. When settlement is made 
with an employee or his or her beneficiary with respect to any bond 
registered in the name and title of the plan trustee in which the 
employee has a share, the bond must be paid or reissued to the extent of 
the share. If an employee or the beneficiary is to receive distribution 
in kind, bonds bearing the same issue dates as those credited to the

              Subpart D--Limitations on Transfer or Pledge



Sec. 353.15  Transfer.

    Savings bonds are not transferable and are payable only to the 
owners named on the bonds, except as specifically provided in these 
regulations and then only in the manner and to the extent so provided.



Sec. 353.16  Pledge.

    A savings bond may not be hypothecated, pledged, or used as security 
for the performance of an obligation.



                     Subpart E--Judicial Proceedings



Sec. 353.20  General.

    (a) The Department of the Treasury will not recognize a judicial 
determination that gives effect to an attempted voluntary transfer inter 
vivos of a bond, or a judicial determination that impairs the rights of 
survivorship conferred by these regulations upon a coowner or 
beneficiary. All provisions of this subpart are subject to these 
restrictions.
    (b) The Department of the Treasury will recognize a claim against an 
owner of a savings bond and conflicting claims of ownership of, or 
interest in, a bond between coowners or between the registered owner and 
the beneficiary, if established by valid judicial proceedings, but only 
as specifically provided in this subpart. Section 353.23 specifies the 
evidence required to establish the validity of the judicial proceedings.
    (c) The Department of the Treasury and the agencies that issue, 
reissue, or redeem savings bonds will not accept a notice of an adverse 
claim or notice of pending judicial proceedings, nor undertake to 
protect the interests of a litigant not in possession of a savings bond.



Sec. 353.21  Payment to judgment creditors.

    (a) Purchaser or officer under levy. The Department of the Treasury 
will pay (but not reissue) a savings bond to the purchaser at a sale 
under a levy or to the officer authorized under appropriate process to 
levy upon property of the registered owner or coowner to satisfy a money 
judgment. Payment will be made only to the extent necessary to satisfy 
the money judgment. The amount paid is limited to the redemption value 
60 days after the termination of the judicial proceedings. Payment of a 
bond registered in coownership form pursuant to a judgment or a levy 
against only one coowner is limited to the extent of that coowner's 
interest in the bond. That interest must be established by an agreement 
between the coowners or by a judgment, decree, or order of a court in a 
proceeding to which both coowners are parties.
    (b) Trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, or similar court officer. The 
Department of the Treasury will pay, at current redemption value, a 
savings bond to a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver of an insolvent's 
estate, a receiver in equity, or a similar court officer under the 
provisions of paragraph (a) of this section.



Sec. 353.22  Payment or reissue pursuant to judgment.

    (a) Divorce. The Department of the Treasury will recognize a divorce 
decree that ratifies or confirms a property settlement agreement 
disposing of bonds or that otherwise settles the interests of the 
parties in a bond. Reissue of a savings bond may be made to eliminate 
the name of one spouse as owner, coowner, or beneficiary or to 
substitute the name of one spouse for that of the other spouse as owner, 
coowner, or beneficiary pursuant to the decree. However, if the bond is 
registered in the name of one spouse with another person as coowner, 
there must be submitted either:
    (1) A request for reissue by the other person or (2) a certified 
copy of a judgment, decree, or court order entered in proceedings to 
which the other person and the spouse named on the bond are parties, 
determining the extent of the interest of that spouse in the bond. 
Reissue will be permitted only to the extent of that spouse's interest. 
The evidence required under Sec. 353.23 must be submitted in every case. 
When the divorce decree does not set out the terms of the property 
settlement agreement, a certified copy of the agreement must be 
submitted. Payment, rather than reissue, will be made if requested.

[[Page 313]]

    (b) Gift causa mortis. A savings bond belonging solely to one 
individual will be paid or reissued at the request of the person found 
by a court to be entitled by reason of a gift causa mortis from the sole 
owner.
    (c) Date for determining rights. When payment or reissue under this 
section is to be made, the rights of the parties will be those existing 
under the regulations current at the time of the entry of the final 
judgment, decree, or court order.



Sec. 353.23  Evidence.

    (a) General. To establish the validity of judicial proceedings, 
certified copies of the final judgment, decree, or court order, and of 
any necessary supplementary proceedings, must be submitted. If the 
judgment, decree, or court order was rendered more than six months prior 
to the presentation of the bond, there must also be submitted a 
certification from the clerk of the court, under court seal, dated 
within six months of the presentation of the bond, showing that the 
judgment, decree, or court order is in full force.
    (b) Trustee in bankruptcy or receiver of an insolvent's estate. A 
request for payment by a trustee in bankruptcy or a receiver of an 
insolvent's estate must be supported by appropriate evidence of 
appointment and qualification. The evidence must be certified by the 
clerk of the court, under court seal, as being in full force on a date 
that is not more than six months prior to the presentation of the bond.
    (c) Receiver in equity or similar court officer. A request for 
payment by a receiver in equity or a similar court officer, other than a 
receiver of an insolvent's estate, must be supported by a copy of an 
order that authorizes the presentation of the bond for redemption, 
certified by the clerk of the court, under court seal, as being in full 
force on a date that is not more than six months prior to the 
presentation of the bond.

Subpart F--Relief for Loss, Theft, Destruction, Mutilation, Defacement, 
                         or Nonreceipt of Bonds



Sec. 353.25  General.

    Relief, by the issue of a substitute bond or by payment, is 
authorized for the loss, theft, destruction, mutilation, or defacement 
of a bond after receipt by the owner or his or her representative. As a 
condition for granting relief, the Commissioner of the Public Debt, as 
designee of the Secretary of the Treasury, may require a bond of 
indemnity, in the form, and with the surety, or security, he considers 
necessary to protect the interests of the United States. In all cases 
the savings bond must be identified by serial number and the applicant 
must submit satisfactory evidence of the loss, theft, or destruction, or 
a satisfactory explanation of the mutilation or defacement.



Sec. 353.26  Application for relief--After receipt of bond.

    (a) If the serial numbers of the lost, stolen, or destroyed bonds 
are known, the claimant should execute an application for relief on the 
appropriate form and submit it to the Bureau of the Public Debt, 
Parkersburg, WV 26101.
    (b) If the bond serial number is not known, the claimant must 
provide sufficient information to enable the Bureau of the Public Debt 
to identify the bond by serial number. See Sec. 353.29(c). The Bureau 
will furnish the proper application form and instructions.
    (c) If applicable, a defaced bond and all available fragments of a 
mutilated bond should be submitted to the Bureau.
    (d) The application must be made by the person or persons (including 
both coowners, if living) authorized under these regulations to request 
payment of the bond. In addition:
    (1) If the bond is in beneficiary form and the owner and beneficiary 
are both living, both will ordinarily be required to join in the 
application.
    (2) If a minor named on a bond as owner, coowner, or beneficiary is 
not of sufficient competency and understanding to request payment, both 
parents will ordinarily be required to join in the application.
    (e) If the application is approved, relief will be granted either by 
the issuance of a bond bearing the same issue date as the bond for which 
the claim was filed or by the issuance of a check in payment.



Sec. 353.27  Application for relief--Nonreceipt of bond.

    If a bond issued on any transaction is not received, the issuing 
agent must be notified as promptly as possible and given all information 
available about the nonreceipt. An appropriate form and instructions 
will be provided. If the application is approved, relief will be granted 
by the issuance of a bond bearing the same issue date as the bond that 
was not received.



Sec. 353.28  Recovery or receipt of bond before or after relief is granted.

    (a) If a bond reported lost, stolen, destroyed, or not received, is 
recovered or received before relief is granted, the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26101, must be notified promptly.
    (b) A bond for which relief has been granted is the property of the 
United States and, if recovered, must be

[[Page 315]]

promptly submitted to the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 
26101, for cancellation.



Sec. 353.29  Adjudication of claims.

    (a) General. The Bureau of the Public Debt will adjudicate claims 
for lost, stolen or destroyed bonds on the basis of records created and 
regularly maintained in the ordinary course of business.
    (b) Claims filed 10 years after payment. A bond for which no claim 
has been filed within 10 years of the recorded date of redemption will 
be presumed to have been properly paid. If a claim is subsequently 
filed, a photographic copy of the bond will not be available to support 
the disallowance.
    (c) Claims filed six years after final maturity. No claim filed six 
years or more after the final maturity of a savings bond will be 
entertained unless the claimant supplies the serial number of the bond.



                           Subpart G--Interest



Sec. 353.30  Series EE bonds.

    Series EE bonds are issued at a discount. The accrued interest is 
added to the issue price at stated intervals and is payable only at 
redemption as part of the redemption value. Information regarding 
interest rates and redemption values is found in Department of the 
Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 1-80 (31 CFR part 351).



Sec. 353.31  Series HH bonds.

    (a) General. Series HH bonds are current income bonds issued at par 
(face amount). Interest on a Series HH bond is paid semiannually 
beginning six months from the issue date. Interest ceases at final 
maturity, or, if the bond is redeemed prior to final maturity, as of the 
end of the interest period last preceding the date of redemption. For 
example, if a bond on which interest is payable on January 1 and July 1 
is redeemed on September 1, interest ceases as of the preceding July 1, 
and no interest will be paid for the period from July 1 to September 1. 
However, if the redemption date falls on an interest payment date, 
interest ceases on that date. Information regarding interest rates is 
found in Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 2-
80, current revision (31 CFR part 352).
    (b) Payment of interest. Series HH bond interest accounts are 
maintained by the Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV. Interest 
on bonds issued on or after October 1, 1989 will be paid on each 
interest due date by the Automated Clearing House (ACH) method to the 
owner or coowner's account at a financial institution, unless the Bureau 
determines that extraordinary circumstances warrant payment by check or 
other means. See 31 CFR part 370. Interest on bonds issued prior to 
October 1, 1989, is payable by check drawn to the order of the owner or 
both coowners or, upon request, by the ACH method to the owner or 
coowner's account at a financial institution. Checks will be mailed to 
the delivery address provided to the Bureau. Deposit account information 
for ACH payments shall be provided on the form designated by the Bureau. 
Rules governing payment of interest by the ACH method are contained in 
paragraph (h) of this section.

(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 
1535-0094)

    (c) Delivery of interest. (1) Notices affecting the delivery of 
interest payments. To ensure appropriate action, notices affecting the 
delivery of interest payments on Series HH bonds must be received by the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26102-1328, at least one 
month prior to the interest payment date. Each notice must include the 
owner or coowner's name and the taxpayer identifying number appearing on 
the account under which records of the bonds are maintained. The notice 
must be signed by the owner or coowner or, in the case of a minor or 
incompetent, as provided in paragraph (d) or (e) of this section.
    (2) Owner or coowner deceased. (i) Sole owner. Upon receipt of 
notice of the death of the owner of a bond, payment of interest will be 
suspended until satisfactory evidence is submitted as to who is 
authorized to receive and collect interest payments on behalf of the 
estate of the decedent, in accordance with the provisions of subpart L.

[[Page 316]]

    (ii) Coowner. Upon receipt of notice of the death of the coowner to 
whom interest payments have been directed, payment of interest will be 
suspended until delivery instructions are received from the other 
coowner, if living. If both coowners are deceased, payment of interest 
will be suspended until satisfactory evidence is submitted as to who is 
authorized to receive and collect interest payments on behalf of the 
estate of the last deceased coowner, in accordance with the provisions 
of subpart L.
    (iii) Owner with beneficiary. Interest on a bond registered in 
beneficiary form is paid to the owner during his or her lifetime. Upon 
receiving notice of the owner's death, the Bureau will suspend payment 
of interest until the bond is presented for payment or reissue by the 
beneficiary, if surviving, or by some other proper person. Interest so 
withheld will be paid to the person entitled to the bond.
    (d) Representative appointed for the estate of a minor, incompetent, 
absentee, et al. Interest on Series HH bonds is paid in accordance with 
the provisions of Sec. 353.60 to the representative appointed for the 
estate of an owner who is a minor, incompetent, absentee, et al. If the 
registration of the bonds does not include reference to the owner's 
status, the bonds should be submitted for reissue to a designated 
Federal Reserve Bank so that interest payments may be properly directed. 
They must be accompanied by proof of appointment, as required by 
Sec. 353.60.
    (e) Adult incapacitated owner having no representative. If an adult 
owner of a Series HH bond is incapacitated and unable to receive and 
collect interest payments, and no legal guardian or similar 
representative has been appointed to act for the owner's the relative, 
or other person, responsible for his or her care and support may apply 
to the Bureau of the Public Debt for recog- nition as voluntary guardian 
for the purpose of receiving and collecting the payments.
    (f) Reissue during interest period. Physical reissue of a Series HH 
bond may be made without regard to interest payment dates. The Series HH 
interest accounts maintained by the Bureau of the Public Debt will be 
closed in the first week of the month preceding each interest payment 
date, and payments will be made pursuant to the information contained in 
the accounts as of the date they are closed.
    (g) Endorsement of checks. Interest checks must be endorsed in 
accordance with the regulations governing the payment of fiscal agency 
checks, as contained in 31 CFR part 355.
    (h) Payment of interest by the ACH method--(1) Submission of deposit 
account information. To obtain payment of interest by the ACH method, 
the owner or coowner must furnish the name and ABA routing/transit 
number of the financial institution to which the payments are to be 
directed, as well as the deposit account title, number, and type or 
classification of the account. Such information shall be provided on the 
form(s) prescribed by the Bureau of the Public Debt. Payments on all 
Series HH bonds assigned to the same account maintained by the Bureau 
must be made to the same deposit account at a financial institution. If 
the financial institution designated to receive the interest payments 
has not agreed to receive and deposit payments under 31 CFR part 210, 
but is willing to do so, it should be asked to contact a Federal Reserve 
Bank for enrollment advice.
    (2) Designation of financial institution as owner's agent. The 
designation of a financial institution to receive Series HH interest 
payments by an owner or coowner constitutes the appointment of that 
institution as his or her agent for receipt of the payments.
    (3) Deposit account held by individuals in their own right. Where 
the Series HH bonds are registered in the name of individual(s) as sole 
owner, or as owner and beneficiary, and the deposit account at the 
financial institution is held in the name of individual(s) in their own 
right, the owner's name must appear on the deposit account. Where the 
bonds are registered in the names of two individuals as coowners and the 
deposit account is held in the name of individual(s) in their own right, 
the registration of the bonds and the title of the account must contain 
at least one name that is common to both. The deposit account to which 
the interest

[[Page 317]]

payments are directed should preferably be established in a form 
identical to the registration of the bonds to ensure that rights of 
ownership and survivorship can be more easily identified and preserved. 
Neither the United States nor any Federal Reserve Bank shall be liable 
for any loss sustained because the interest of the holder(s) of a 
deposit account to which payments are made are not the same as the 
owner(s) of the bonds.
    (4) Deposit account held by organization. Where the deposit account 
to which interest payments are to be directed is held in the name of the 
financial institution itself acting as sole trustee, or as co-trustee, 
or is the name of a commercially-managed investment fund, the owner or 
coowner should inquire whether the financial institution is able to 
receive ACH payments; if not, the owner or coowner should make 
alternative arrangements.
    (5) Financial institution cannot accept ACH payments. If after 
submission of deposit account information, it is determined that ACH 
payments cannot be accepted by the designated financial institution, 
pending receipt of new deposit account information, payment will be made 
by check drawn to the registered owner or both coowners and mailed to 
the address of record.
    (6) Cancellation of ACH arrangement. (i) Bonds issued on or after 
October 1, 1989. As set forth in paragraph (b) of this section and in 
the Series HH offering contained in Circular No. 2-80, interest on 
Series HH bonds issued on or after October 1, 1989, will be paid by the 
ACH method. In the absence of extraordinary circumstances, a request to 
discontinue payment by the ACH method in favor of payment by check will 
not be accepted.
    (ii) Bonds issued prior to October 1, 1989. An ACH arrangement 
established in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section for Series 
HH bonds issued prior to October 1, 1989, shall remain in effect until 
it is terminated by one of the following events:
    (A) Either coowner submits a request to the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Parkersburg, WV, 26102-1328 to terminate the ACH arrangement;
    (B) A change in the title of the deposit account to which payments 
are being directed alters the interest of the person(s) entitled to the 
payments;
    (C) An individual named on the deposit account dies or is 
adjudicated legally incompetent;
    (D) The account is closed; or
    (E) The ACH arrangement is terminated unilaterally by the financial 
institution after having given written notice to the account holder 30 
days in advance of the termination, except in cases of fraud, where 
termination shall be effective immediately.
    (7) Suspension of ACH payments. Upon receipt of notice that a 
designated deposit account has been closed, that an individual named on 
such account is dead or has been declared legally incompetent, or where 
the corporation is the owner and it has been dissolved, the Bureau 
reserves the right to suspend ACH payments, pending satisfactory 
evidence of entitlement. See paragraph (c) of this section regarding 
suspension of payments in the case of deceased individuals.
    (8) Processing of ACH payments. Series HH interest payments made by 
the ACH method will be processed in accordance with 31 CFR part 370.
    (i) Nonreceipt or loss of interest payment. The Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328 should be notified if:
    (1) An interest check is not received or is lost after receipt or
    (2) An ACH payment is not credited to the designated account and the 
financial institution has no record of receiving it. The notice should 
include the owner or coowner's name and taxpayer identifying number and 
the interest payment date.
    (ii) [Reserved]

                Subpart H--General Provisions for Payment



Sec. 353.35  Payment (redemption).

    (a) General. Payment of a savings bond will be made to the person or 
persons entitled under the provisions of these regulations, except that 
checks in payment will not be delivered to addresses in areas with 
respect to which

[[Page 318]]

the Department of the Treasury restricts or regulates the delivery of 
checks drawn against funds of the United States. See Department of the 
Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR part 211). Payment 
will be made without regard to any notice of adverse claims to a bond 
and no stoppage or caveat against payment of a bond will be entered.
    (b) Series EE. A Series EE bond will be paid at any time after six 
months from issue date at the current redemption value shown in 
Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 1-80 (31 CFR 
part 351).
    (c) Series HH. A Series HH bond will be paid at any time after six 
months from issue date. A Series HH bond issued in an authorized 
exchange or reinvestment transaction will be paid at face value. A 
Series HH bond issued for cash will be paid at the current redemption 
value shown in Department of the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series 
No. 2-80, Second Revision (31 CFR part 352). If the bond is redeemed at 
less than face value, the difference represents an adjustment of 
interest. In any case where Series HH bonds are surrendered to a 
designated Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328, for redemption in the month prior to 
an interest payment date, redemption will not be deferred but will be 
made in regular course, unless the presenter specifically requests that 
the transaction be delayed until that date. A request to defer 
redemption made more than one month preceding the interest payment date 
will not be accepted.
[44 FR 76441, Dec. 26, 1979, as amended at 51 FR 23754, July 1, 1986; 59 
FR 10541, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 353.36  Payment during life of sole owner.

    A savings bond registered in single ownership form (i.e., without a 
coowner or beneficiary) will be paid to the owner during his or her 
lifetime upon surrender with an appropriate request.



Sec. 353.37  Payment during lives of both coowners.

    A savings bond registered in coownership form will be paid to either 
coowner upon surrender with an appropriate request, and upon payment (as 
determined in Sec. 353.43), the other coowner will cease to have any 
interest in the bond. If both coowners request payment, payment will be 
made by check drawn in the form, ``John A. Jones AND Mary C. Jones''.



Sec. 353.38  Payment during lifetime of owner of beneficiary bond.

    A savings bond registered in beneficiary form will be paid to the 
registered owner during his or her lifetime upon surrender with an 
appropriate request. Upon payment (as determined in Sec. 353.43) the 
beneficiary will cease to have any interest in the bond.



Sec. 353.39  Surrender for payment.

    (a) Procedure for bonds of Series EE, in the names of individual 
owners or coowners only. An individual who is the owner or coowner of a 
Series EE bond may present the bond to an authorized paying agent for 
redemption. The presenter must be prepared to establish his or her 
identity in accordance with Treasury instructions and identification 
guidelines. The owner or coowner must sign the request for payment on 
the bond or, if authorized, on a separate detached request, and add his 
or her address. If the request for payment has been signed, or signed 
and certified, before presentation of the bond, the paying agent must be 
satisfied that the person presenting the bond for payment is the owner 
or coowner and may require the person to sign the request for payment 
again. If the bond is in order for payment, the paying agent will make 
immediate payment at the current redemption value without charge to the 
presenter. Paying agents are not authorized to process any case 
involving partial redemption or any case in which supporting evidence is 
required.
    (b) Procedure for all other cases. In the case of bonds to which the 
procedure in paragraph (a) of this section, does not apply, or if 
otherwise preferred, the

[[Page 319]]

owner or coowner, or other person entitled to payment, should appear 
before an officer authorized to certify requests for payment, establish 
his or her identity, sign the request for payment, and provide 
information as to the address to which the check in payment is to be 
mailed. The bond must be forwarded to a designated Federal Reserve Bank 
or Branch or the Bureau of the Public Debt. Usually, payment will be 
expedited by submission to a designated Federal Reserve Bank or Branch. 
In all cases, the cost and risk of presentation of a bond will be borne 
by the owner. Payment will be made by check drawn to the order of the 
registered owner or other person entitled and will be mailed to the 
address requested.
    (c) Date of request. Requests executed more than six months before 
the date of receipt of a bond for payment will not be accepted. Neither 
will a bond be accepted if payment is requested as of a date more than 
three months in the future.

Sec. 353.40  Special provisions for payment.

    (a) Owner's signature not required. A bond may be paid by a paying 
agent or a designated Federal Reserve Bank without the owner's signature 
to the request for payment, if the bond bears the special endorsement of 
a paying agent specifically qualified to place such an endorsement on 
savings bonds.
    (b) Signature by mark. A signature by mark (X) must be witnessed by 
at least one disinterested person and a certifying officer. See subpart 
J. The witness must attest to the signature by mark substantially as 
follows: ``Witness to signature by mark'', followed by his or her 
signature and address.
    (c) Name change. If the name of the owner, coowner, or other person 
entitled to payment, as it appears in the registration or in evidence on 
file in the Bureau of the Public Debt, has been changed in any legal 
manner, the signature to the request for payment must show both names 
and the manner in which the change was made; for example, ``Mary T. 
Jones Smith (Mary T. J. Smith or Mary T. Smith) changed by marriage from 
Mary T. Jones'', or ``John R. Young, changed by order of court from Hans 
R. Jung''. See Sec. 353.50.
    (d) Attorneys-in-fact. A request for payment, reinvestment, or 
exchange executed by an attorney-in-fact will be recognized if it is 
accompanied by a copy of the power of attorney which meets the following 
requirements:
    (1) The power of attorney must bear the grantor's signature, 
properly certified or notarized, in accordance with applicable State 
law;
    (2) The power of attorney must grant, by its terms, authority for 
the attorney-in-fact to sell or redeem the grantor's securities, sell 
his or her personal property, or, otherwise contain similar authority; 
and
    (3) In the case of a grantor who has become incapacitated, the power 
of attorney must conform with pertinent provisions of State law 
concerning its durability. Generally, in such circumstances, the power 
of attorney should provide that the authority granted will not be 
affected by the subsequent incompetence or incapacity of the grantor. 
Medical evidence or other proof of the grantor's condition may be 
required in any case.
[45 FR 64091, Sept. 26, 1980, as amended at 57 FR 39602, Sept. 1, 1992; 
59 FR 10541, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 353.41  Partial redemption.

    A bond of Series EE or HH may be redeemed in part at current 
redemption value, but only in amounts corresponding to authorized 
denominations, upon surrender of the bond to a designated Federal 
Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau of the Public Debt in accordance 
with Sec. 353.39(b). In any case in which partial redemption is 
requested, the phrase ``to the extent of $---- (face amount) and reissue 
of the remainder'' should be added to the request. Upon partial 
redemption of the bond, the remainder will be reissued as of the 
original issue date, as provided in subpart I.
[44 FR 76441, Dec. 26, 1979, as amended at 59 FR 10541, Mar. 4, 1994]



Sec. 353.42  Nonreceipt or loss of check issued in payment.

    If a check in payment of a bond surrendered for redemption is not 
received within a reasonable time or is lost

[[Page 320]]

after receipt, notice should be given to the same agency to which the 
bond was surrendered for payment. The notice should give the date the 
bond was surrendered for payment and describe the bond by series, 
denomination, serial number, and registration, including the taxpayer 
identifying number of the owner.



Sec. 353.43  Effective date of request for payment.

    The Department of the Treasury will treat the receipt of a bond with 
an appropriate request for payment by:
    (a) A Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, (b) the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, or (c) a paying agent authorized to pay that bond, as the date 
upon which the rights of the parties are fixed for the purpose of 
payment.



Sec. 353.44  Withdrawal of request for payment.

    (a) Withdrawal by owner or coowner. An owner or coowner, who has 
surrendered a bond to a Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or to the Bureau 
of the Public Debt or to an authorized paying agent with an appropriate 
request for payment, may withdraw the request if notice of intent to 
withdraw is received by the same agency prior to payment either in cash 
or through the issuance of the redemption check.
    (b) Withdrawal on behalf of deceased owner or incompetent. A request 
for payment may be withdrawn under the same conditions as in paragraph 
(a) of this section by the executor or administrator of the estate of a 
deceased owner or by the person or persons who could have been entitled 
to the bond under Subpart L, or by the legal representative of the 
estate of a person under legal disability, unless surrender of the bond 
for payment has eliminated the interest of a surviving coowner or 
beneficiary. See Sec. 353.70 (b) and (c).



             Subpart I--Reissue and Denominational Exchange



Sec. 353.45  General.

    Reissue of a bond may be made only under the conditions specified in 
these regulations, and only at:
    (a) A Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, or
    (b) The Bureau of the Public Debt.

Reissue will not be made if the request is received less than one full 
calendar month before the final maturity date of a bond. The request, 
however, will be effective to establish ownership as though the 
requested reissue had been made.



Sec. 353.46  Effective date of request for reissue.

    The Department of the Treasury will treat the receipt by: (a) A 
Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or (b) the Bureau of the Public Debt of a 
bond and an acceptable request for reissue as determining the date upon 
which the rights of the parties are fixed for the purpose of reissue. 
For example, if the owner or either coowner of a bond dies after the 
bond has been surrendered for reissue, the bond will be regarded as 
having been reissued in the decedent's lifetime.



Sec. 353.47  Authorized reissue--during lifetime.

    A bond belonging to an individual may be reissued in any authorized 
form of registration upon an appropriate request for the purposes 
outlined below.
    (a) Single ownership. A bond registered in single ownership form may 
be reissued--
    (1) To add a coowner or beneficiary; or
    (2) To name a new owner, with or without a coowner or beneficiary, 
but only if:
    (i) The new owner is related to the previous owner by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage; (ii) the previous owner and the 
new owner are parties to a divorce or annulment; or (iii) the new sole 
owner is the trustee of a personal trust estate which was created by the 
previous owner or which designates as beneficiary either the previous 
owner or a person related to him or her by blood (including legal 
adoption) or marriage.
    (b) Coownership--(1) Reissue--to name a related individual as owner 
or coowner. During the lifetime of both coowners, a coownership bond may 
be reissued in the name of another individual related by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage to either coowner:
    (i) As single owner,

[[Page 321]]

    (ii) As owner with one of the original coowners as beneficiary, or
    (iii) As a new coowner with one of the original coowners.
    (2) Reissue--to name either coowner alone or with another individual 
as coowner or beneficiary. During the lifetime of both coowners, a 
coownership bond may be reissued in the name of either coowner alone or 
with another individual as coowner or beneficiary if:
    (i) After issue of the submitted bond, either coowner named thereon 
marries, or the coowners are divorced or legally separated from each 
other, or their marriage is annulled; or
    (ii) Both coowners on the submitted bond are related by blood 
(including legal adoption) or marriage to each other.
    (3) Reissue--to name the trustee of a personal trust estate. A bond 
registered in coownership form may be reissued to name a trustee of a 
personal trust estate created by either coowner or by some other person 
if:
    (i) Either coowner is a beneficiary of the trust, or (ii) a 
beneficiary of the trust is related by blood or marriage to either 
coowner.
    (c) Beneficiary. A bond registered in beneficiary form may be 
reissued:
    (1) To name the beneficiary as coowner;
    (2) To substitute another individual as beneficiary; or
    (3) To eliminate the beneficiary, and, if the beneficiary is 
eliminated, to effect any of the reissues authorized by paragraph (a) of 
this section.



Sec. 353.48  Restrictions on reissue.

    (a) Denominational exchange. Reissue is not permitted solely to 
change denominations.
    (b) United States Treasury. Reissue may not be made to eliminate the 
United States Treasury as coowner.



Sec. 353.49  Correction of errors.

    A bond may be reissued to correct an error in registration upon 
appropriate request supported by satisfactory proof of the error.



Sec. 353.50  Change of name.

    An owner, coowner, or beneficiary whose name is changed by marriage, 
divorce, annulment, order of court, or in any other legal manner after 
the issue of the bond should submit the bond with a request for reissue 
to substitute the new name for the name inscribed on the bond. 
Documentary evidence may be required in any appropriate case.



Sec. 353.51  Requests for reissue.

    A request for reissue of bonds in coownership form must be signed by 
both coowners, except that a request solely to eliminate the name of one 
coowner may be signed by that coowner only. A bond registered in 
beneficiary form may be reissued upon the request of the owner, without 
the consent of the beneficiary. Public Debt forms are available for 
requesting reissue.

    Subpart K--Minors, Incompetents, Aged Persons, Absentees, et al.



Sec. 353.60  Payment to representative of an estate.

    (a) The representative of an estate of an owner who is a minor, an 
aged person, incompetent, absentee, et al., may receive payment upon 
request:
    (1) If the registration shows the name and capacity of the 
representative;
    (2) If the registration shows the capacity but not the name of the 
representative and the request is accompanied by appropriate evidence; 
or
    (3) If the registration includes neither the name of the 
representative nor his or her capacity but the request is accompained by 
appropriate evidence.
    (b) Appropriate evidence for paragraphs (a) (2) and (3) of this 
section includes a certified copy of the letters of appointment or, if 
the representative is not appointed by a court, other proof of 
qualification. Except in the case of corporate fiduciaries, the evidence 
must show that the appointment is in full force and be dated not more 
than one year prior to the presentation of the bond for payment. The 
request for payment appearing on the back of a bond must be signed by 
the representative as such, for example, ``John S. Jones, guardian 
(committee) of the estate of Henry W. Smith, a minor (an incompetent)''.



Sec. 353.61  Payment after death.

    After the death of the ward, and at any time prior to the 
representative's discharge, the representative of the estate will be 
entitled to obtain payment of a bond to which the ward was solely 
entitled.



Sec. 353.62  Payment to minors.

    If the owner of a savings bond is a minor and the form of 
registration does not indicate that there is a representative of the 
minor's estate, payment will be made to the minor upon his or her 
request, provided the minor is of sufficient competency to sign the 
request for payment and to understand the nature of the transaction. In 
general, the fact that the request for payment has been signed by a 
minor and certified will be accepted as sufficient proof of competency 
and understanding.



Sec. 353.63  Payment to a parent or other person on behalf of a minor.

    If the owner of a savings bond is a minor and the form of 
registration does not indicate that there is a representative of his or 
her estate, and if the minor is not of sufficient competency to sign the 
request for payment and to understand the nature of the transaction, 
payment will be made to either parent with whom the minor resides or to 
whom legal custody has been granted. If the minor does not reside with 
either parent, payment will be made to the person who furnishes the 
chief support for the minor. The request must appear on the back of the 
bond in one of the following forms:
    (a) Request by parent.

    I certify that I am the mother of John C. Jones (with whom he 
resides) (to whom legal custody has been granted). He is ------ years of 
age and is not of sufficient understanding to make this request.

    Mary Jones on behalf of

John C. Jones

    (b) Request by other person.

    I certify that John C. Jones does not reside with either parent and 
that I furnish his chief support. He is ------ years of age and is not 
of sufficient understanding to make this request.

    Alice Brown, grandmother,

On behalf of John C. Jones

[[Page 324]]



Sec. 353.64  Payment, reinvestment, or exchange--voluntary guardian of an incapacitated person.

    (a) Payment of bonds. When an adult owner of bonds is incapable of 
requesting payment as a result of incapacity and there is no other 
person legally qualified to do so, the relative, or other person, 
responsible for the owner's care and support may submit an application 
for recognition as voluntary guardian for the purpose of redeeming the 
owner's bonds, if the total redemption value of all of the owner's bonds 
does not exceed $20,000. The redemption value of the bonds shall be 
determined as of the date the bonds are received, accompanied by an 
appropriate request for payment. If the total redemption value exceeds 
$20,000, a legal representative must be appointed, as set forth in 
Sec. 315.60.
    (b) Reinvestment of bonds. If the bonds have finally matured and it 
is desired to redeem them and reinvest the proceeds in other savings 
bonds, the new bonds must be registered in the name of the incapacitated 
person, followed by words showing that he or she is under voluntary 
guardianship; for example, ``John Jones 123-45-6789, under voluntary 
guardianship''. A living coowner or beneficiary named on the matured 
bonds must be designated on the new bonds, unless such person furnishes 
a certified statement consenting to omission of his or her name. If an 
amount insufficient to purchase an additional bond of any authorized 
denomination of either series remains after the reinvestment, the 
voluntary guardian may furnish additional funds sufficient to purchase 
another bond of either series of the lowest available denomination. If 
additional funds are not furnished, the remaining amount will be paid to 
the voluntary guardian for the use and benefit of the incapacitated 
person.
    (c) Exchange of bonds. The provisions for reinvestment of the 
proceeds of matured bonds are equally applicable to any authorized 
exchange of bonds of one series for those of another.
[57 FR 39602, Sept. 1, 1992]



Sec. 353.65  Reissue.

    A bond on which a minor or other person under legal disability is 
named as the owner or coowner, or in which he or she has an interest, 
may be reissued under the following conditions:
    (a) A minor for whose estate no representative has been appointed 
may request reissue if the minor is of sufficient competency to sign his 
or her name to the request and to understand the nature of the 
transaction.
    (b) A bond on which a minor is named as beneficiary or coowner may 
be reissued in the name of a custodian for the minor under a statute 
authorizing gifts to minor upon the request of the adult whose name 
appears on the bond as owner or coowner.
    (c) A minor coowner for whose estate no representative has been 
appointed, may be named sole owner upon the request of the competent 
coowner.
    (d) Reissue to eliminate the name of a minor or incompetent for 
whose estate a legal representative has been appointed is permitted only 
if supported by evidence that a court has authorized the representative 
of the minor's or incompetent's estate to request the reissue. See 
Sec. 353.23.

Except to the extent provided in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this 
section, reissue will be restricted to a form of registration which does 
not adversely affect the existing ownership or interest of a minor who 
is not of sufficient understanding to make a request, or other person 
under legal disability. Requests for reissue should be executed by the 
person authorized to request payment under Secs. 353.60 and 353.63, or 
the person who may request recognization as voluntary guardian under 
Sec. 353.64.
[44 FR 76441, Dec. 26, 1979. Redesignated at 57 FR 39602, Sept. 1, 1992]



            Subpart L--Deceased Owner, Coowner or Beneficiary



Sec. 353.70  General rules governing entitlement.

    The following rules govern ownership or entitlement where one or 
both of the persons named on a bond have died without the bond having 
been surrendered for payment or reissue:

[[Page 325]]

    (a) Single owner bond. If the owner of a bond registered in single 
ownership form has died, the bond becomes the property of that 
decedent's estate, and payment or reissue will be made as provided in 
this subpart.
    (b) Coowner bond--(1) One coowner deceased. If one of the coowners 
named on a bond has died, the surviving coowner will be recognized as 
the sole and absolute owner, and payment or reissue will be made as 
though the bond were registered in the name of the survivor alone. Any 
request for reissue by the surviving coowner must be supported by proof 
of death of the other coowner.
    (2) Both coowners deceased. If both coowners named on a bond have 
died, the bond becomes the property of the estate of the coowner who 
died last, and payment or reissue will be made as if the bond were 
registered in the name of the last deceased coowner alone. Proof of 
death of both coowners will be required to establish the order of death.
    (3) Simultaneously death of both coowners. If both coowners die 
under conditions where it cannot be established, either by presumption 
of law or otherwise, which coowner died first, the bond becomes the 
property of both equally, and payment or reissue will be made 
accordingly.
    (c) Beneficiary bond--(1) Owner deceased. If the owner of a bond 
registered in beneficiary form has died and is survived by the 
beneficiary, upon proof of death of the owner, the beneficiary will be 
recognized as the sole and absolute owner of the bond. Payment or 
reissue will be made as though the bond were registered in the 
survivor's name alone. A request for payment or reissue by the 
beneficiary must be supported by proof of death of the owner.
    (2) Beneficiary deceased. If the beneficiary's death occurs before, 
or simultaneously with, that of the registered owner, payment or reissue 
will be made as though the bond were registered in the owner's name 
alone. Proof of death of the owner and beneficiary is required to 
establish the order of death.
    (d) Nonresident aliens. If the person who becomes entitled to a bond 
because of the death of an owner is an alien who is a resident of an 
area with respect to which the Department of the Treasury restricts or 
regulates the delivery of checks drawn against funds of the United 
States or its agencies or instrumentalities, delivery of the redemption 
check will not be made so long as the restriction applies. See 
Department of the Treasury Circular No. 655, current revision (31 CFR 
part 211).



Sec. 353.71  Estate administered.

    (a) During administration. The legal representative of an estate may 
request payment of bonds, including interest or redemption checks, 
belonging to the estate or may have the bonds reissued in the names of 
the persons entitled to share in the estate under the following 
conditions:
    (1) When there is more than one legal representative, all must join 
in the request for payment or reissue, unless Sec. 353.75(a)(1) or (b) 
applies.
    (2) The request for payment or reissue must be signed in the form: 
``John A. Jones, administrator of the estate (or executor of the will) 
of Henry M. Jones, deceased''. The request must be supported by evidence 
of the legal representative's authority in the form of a court 
certificate or a certified copy of the legal representative's letters of 
appointment which must be dated within six months of the date of 
presentation of the bond, unless the evidence shows that the appointment 
was made within one year prior to the presentation of the bond.
    (3) For reissue, the legal representative must certify that each 
person in whose name reissue is requested is entitled to the extent 
specified and must certify that each person has consented to the 
reissue. If a person in whose name reissue is requested desires to name 
a coowner or beneficiary, the person must execute an additional request 
for reissue on the appropriate form.
    (b) After administration. If the estate of the decedent has been 
settled through judicial proceedings, the bond and interest and 
redemption checks will be paid, or the bond will be reissued, upon the 
request of the person shown to be entitled by the court order. The 
request must be supported by a certified copy of the legal 
representative's court-approved final account, the decree of 
distribution, or other pertinent court records. If two or

[[Page 326]]

more persons have an interest in the bond, they must enter into an 
agreement concerning the bond's disposition. If the person entitled 
desires to name a coowner or beneficiary, a separate request must be 
made on an appropriate form.
    (c) Special provisions for small amounts. Special procedures are 
available for establishing entitlement to, or effecting disposition of, 
savings bonds and interest and redemption checks if the aggregate face 
amount, excluding interest checks, does not exceed $1,000.



Sec. 353.72  Estate not administered.

    (a) Special State law provisions. A request for payment or reissue 
of a bond by the person who has qualified under State law to receive or 
distribute the assets of a decedent's estate will be accepted, provided 
evidence of the person's authority is submitted.
    (b) Agreement of persons entitled. If there is no legal 
representative for the estate of a decedent, the bonds will be paid to, 
or reissued in the name of, the persons entitled, pursuant to an 
agreement and request executed by all persons entitled to share in the 
decedent's personal estate. If the persons entitled to share in the 
decedent's personal estate include minors or incompetents, payment or 
reissue of the bonds must be made to them or in their names unless their 
interest in the bonds is otherwise protected.
    (c) Creditors. An institutional creditor of a deceased owner's 
estate is entitled to payment only to the extent of its claim.
    (d) Special provisions for payment of small amounts--survivors of 
the decedent. (1) If the face amount of the bond does not exceed $500 
and there is no legal representative of the deceased owner's estate, the 
bond will be paid upon the request of the person who paid the burial 
expenses and who has not been reimbursed.
    (2) If there is no legal representative of the estate of a decedent

    (a) Payment or reissue before maturity--(1) Request from the 
fiduciary named in the registration. A request for reissue or payment 
prior to maturity must be signed by all of the fiduciaries unless by 
statute, decree of court, or the terms of the governing instrument, any 
lesser number may properly execute the request. If the fiduciaries named 
in the registration are still acting, no further evidence will be 
required. In other cases, evidence to support the request will be 
required, as specified:
    (i) Fiduciaries by title only. If the bond is registered only in the

satisfactory evidence of their incumbency must be furnished, except in 
the case of bonds registered in the title of public officers as 
trustees.
    (ii) Boards, committees, commission, etc. If a bond is registered in 
the name of a governing body which is empowered to act as a unit, and 
which holds title to the property of a religious, educational, 
charitable or nonprofit organization or a public corporation, the 
request should be signed in the name of the body by an authorized 
person. Ordinarily, a signed and certified request

[[Page 327]]

will be accepted without further evidence.
    (iii) Corporate fiduciaries. If a bond is registered in the name of 
a public or private corporation or a governmental body as fiduciary, the 
request must be signed by an authorized officer in the name of the

will be accepted without further evidence.
    (2) Trustee of a common trust fund. A bond held by a financial 
institution in a fiduciary capacity may be reissued in the name of the 
institution as trustee of its common trust fund to the extent that 
participation in the common trust fund is authorized by law or 
regulation. The request for reissue should be executed by the 
institution and any cofiduciary.
    (3) Successor fiduciary. If the fiduciary in whose name the bond is 
registered has been replaced by another fiduciary, satisfactory evidence 
of successorship must be furnished.
    (b) Payment at or after final maturity. At or after final maturity, 
a request for payment signed by any one or more of the fiduciaries will 
be accepted. Payment will be made by check drawn as the bond is 
registered.

    A bond registered in the name or title of a fiduciary may be paid or 
reissued to the person who has become entitled by reason of the 
termination of a fiduciary estate. Requests for reissue made by a 
fiduciary pursuant to the termination of a fiduciary estate should be 
made on the appropriate form. Requests for payment or reissue by other 
than the fiduciary must be accompanied by evidence to show that the

otherwise. When two or more persons have become entitled, the request 
for payment or reissue must be signed by each of them.

trustee or agent. There must be an agreement between the organization 
and the trustee or agent holding funds of the organization, in whole or 
in part, for the purpose of investing and reinvesting the principal and 
paying the income to the organization. Reissue should be requested on 
behalf of the organization by an authorized officer using the 
appropriate form.



Sec. 353.86  Reissue upon termination of investment agency.

    A bond registered in the name of a financial institution, or 
individual, as agent for investment purposes only, under an agreement 
with a religious, an educational, a charitable, or a nonprofit 
organization, may be reissued in the name of the organization upon 
termination of the agency. The former agent should request such reissue 
and should certify that the organization is entitled by reason of the 
termination of the agency. If such request and certification are not 
obtainable, the bond will be reissued in the name of the organization 
upon its own request, supported by satisfactory evidence of the

[[Page 329]]

termination of the agency. The appropriate form should be used.



Sec. 353.87  Payment to governmental agencies, units, or their officers.

county, city, town, village, or in the name of a Federal, State, or

    (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, the

    (3) Whether the Securities Intermediary owes any duties to an 
adverse claimant to a Security Entitlement;

[[Page 332]]

    (4) Whether an Adverse Claim can be asserted against a Person who 
acquires a Security Entitlement from the Securities Intermediary or a 
Person who purchases a Security Entitlement or interest therein from an 
Entitlement Holder; and
    (5) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of this section, 
the perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection and priority of a 
security interest in a Security Entitlement.
    (b) The following rules determine a ``Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction'' for purposes of this section:
    (1) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder specifies that it is governed by the law of a 
particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction.
    (2) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify the governing law as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) of this section, but expressly specifies that the 
securities account is maintained at an office in a particular 
jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction.
    (3) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify a jurisdiction as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section, the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which is located the 
office identified in an account statement as the office serving the 
Entitlement Holder's account.
    (4) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify a jurisdiction as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section and an account statement does 
not identify an office serving the Entitlement Holder's account as 
provided in paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which is located the 
chief executive office of the Securities Intermediary.
    (c) Notwithstanding the general rule in paragraph (a)(5) of this 
section, the law (but not the conflict-of-law rules) of the jurisdiction 
in which the Person creating a security interest is located governs 
whether and how the security interest may be perfected automatically or 
by filing a financing statement.
    (d) If the jurisdiction specified in paragraph (b) of this section 
is a State that has not adopted Revised Article 8 (incorporated by 
reference, see Sec. 354.1), then the law for the matters specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section shall be the law of that State as though 
Revised Article 8 had been adopted by that State. For purposes of the 
application of the matters specified in paragraph (a) of this section, 
the Federal Reserve Bank maintaining the Participant's Securities 
Account is a clearing corporation, and the Participant's interest in a 
Book-entry Security is a Security Entitlement.



Sec. 354.4  Creation of Participant's Security Entitlement; security interests.

    (a) A Participant's Security Entitlement is created when a Federal 
Reserve Bank indicates by book-entry that a Book-entry Sallie Mae 
Security has been credited to a Participant's Securities Account.
    (b) A security interest in a Security Entitlement of a Participant 
in favor of the United States to secure deposits of public money, 
including without limitation deposits to the Treasury tax and loan 
accounts, or other security interest in favor of the United States that 
is required by Federal statute, regulation, or agreement, and that is 
marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank is thereby effected and 
perfected, and has priority over any other interest in the securities. 
Where a security interest in favor of the United States in a Security 
Entitlement of a Participant is marked on the books of a Federal Reserve 
Bank, such Federal Reserve Bank may rely, and is protected in relying, 
exclusively on the order of an authorized representative of the United 
States directing the transfer of the security. For purposes of this 
paragraph, an ``authorized representative of the United States'' is the 
official designated in the applicable regulations or agreement to which 
a Federal Reserve Bank is a party, governing the security interest.
    (c)(1) Sallie Mae and the Federal Reserve Banks have no obligation 
to agree to act on behalf of any Person or

[[Page 333]]

to recognize the interest of any transferee of a security interest or 
other limited interest in favor of any Person except to the extent of 
any specific requirement of Federal law or regulation or to the extent 
set forth in any specific agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank on 
whose books the interest of the Participant is recorded. To the extent 
required by such law or regulation or set forth in an agreement with a 
Federal Reserve Bank, or the Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular, a 
security interest in a Security Entitlement that is in favor of a 
Federal Reserve Bank, Sallie Mae, or a Person may be created and 
perfected by a Federal Reserve Bank marking its books to record the 
security interest. Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, 
a security interest in a Security Entitlement marked on the books of a 
Federal Reserve Bank shall have priority over any other interest in the 
securities.
    (2) In addition to the method provided in paragraph (c)(1) of this 
section, a security interest, including a security interest in favor of 
a Federal Reserve Bank, may be perfected by any method by which a 
security interest may be perfected under applicable law as described in 
Sec. 354.2(b) or Sec. 354.3. The perfection, effect of perfection or 
non-perfection and priority of a security interest are governed by such 
applicable law. A security interest in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank 
shall be treated as a security interest in favor of a clearing 
corporation in all respects under such law, including with respect to 
the effect of perfection and priority of such security interest. A 
Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular shall be treated as a rule 
adopted by a clearing corporation for such purposes.



Sec. 354.5  Obligations of Sallie Mae; no adverse claims.

    (a) Except in the case of a security interest in favor of the United 
States or a Federal Reserve Bank or otherwise as provided in 
Sec. 354.4(c)(1), for the purposes of this part 354, Sallie Mae and the 
Federal Reserve Banks shall treat the Participant to whose Securities 
Account an interest in a Book-entry Sallie Mae Security has been 
credited as the person exclusively entitled to issue a Transfer Message, 
to receive interest and other payments with respect thereof and 
otherwise to exercise all the rights and powers with respect to such 
Security, notwithstanding any information or notice to the contrary. 
Neither the Federal Reserve Banks nor Sallie Mae is liable to a Person 
asserting or having an Adverse Claim to a Security Entitlement or to a 
Book-entry Sallie Mae Security in a Participant's Securities Account, 
including any such claim arising as a result of the transfer or 
disposition of a Book-entry Sallie Mae Security by a Federal Reserve 
Bank pursuant to a Transfer Message that the Federal Reserve Bank 
reasonably believes to be genuine.
    (b) The obligation of Sallie Mae to make payments of interest and 
principal with respect to Book-entry Sallie Mae Securities is discharged 
at the time payment in the appropriate amount is made as follows:
    (1) Interest on Book-entry Sallie Mae Securities is either credited 
by a Federal Reserve Bank to a Funds Account maintained at such Bank or 
otherwise paid as directed by the Participant.
    (2) Book-entry Sallie Mae Securities are redeemed at maturity or 
pursuant to a call for redemption in accordance with their terms by a 
Federal Reserve Bank withdrawing the securities from the Participant's 
Securities Account in which they are maintained and by either crediting 
the amount of the redemption proceeds, including both principal and 
interest where applicable, to a Funds Account at such Bank or otherwise 
paying such principal and interest, as directed by the Participant.



Sec. 354.6  Authority of Federal Reserve Banks.

    (a) Each Federal Reserve Bank is hereby authorized as fiscal agent 
of Sallie Mae to perform functions with respect to the issuance of Book-

operation of the Book-entry System under this part.



Sec. 354.7  Withdrawal of eligible Book-entry Sallie Mae Securities for conversion to definitive form.

judgment of Sallie Mae be necessary for the protection of the interests 
of Sallie Mae.
    (b) Notice of attachment for Sallie Mae Securities in Book-entry 
System. The interest of a debtor in a Security Entitlement may be 
reached by a creditor only by legal process upon the Securities 
Intermediary with whom the debtor's securities account is maintained, 
except where a Security Entitlement is maintained in the name of a 
secured party, in which case the debtor's interest may be reached by 
legal process upon the secured party. The regulations in this part do 
not purport to establish whether a Federal Reserve Bank is required to 
honor an order or other notice of attachment in any particular case or 
class of cases.

Sec. 355.0  Applicability.

    The regulations in this part prescribe the rights and liabilities of 
the United States, the Federal Reserve Banks, and others on fiscal 
agency checks. They apply to checks issued on behalf of the United 
States for payments in connection with United States securities. The 
checks are issued by a Federal Reserve Bank, in its capacity as fiscal 
agent of the United States. The checks are drawn on the payor Federal 
Reserve Bank in its banking capacity. They are referred to from time to 
time as fiscal agency checks. The drawer of a fiscal agency check is the 
United States; the drawee is a Federal Reserve Bank. Therefore, a fiscal 
agency check shall not be deemed to be drawn on the United States nor 
shall the Federal Reserve Bank be deemed its drawer.



Sec. 355.1  Governing law.

    Except as otherwise provided by statute or this part, the 
regulations governing checks drawn on the United States or on designated 
depositories of the United States (e.g., 31 CFR parts 235, 240, 245, and 
248) are inapplicable to fiscal agency checks. As to definitions and 
other matters not specifically covered in this part, fiscal agency 
checks are governed by Regulation J of the Board of Governors of the 
Federal Reserve System, 12 CFR part 210 (``Regulation J''), and to the 
extent not otherwise inconsistent with these regulations and Regulation 
J, the Uniform Commercial Code (``U.C.C.''), as drafted by the National 
Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, and as both may from 
time to time be revised. Such matters include, but are not limited to, 
rules regarding general presentment and transfer warranties (as modified 
herein), indorsement, and final payment.



Sec. 355.2  Definitions.

    Department means the United States Department of the Treasury.
    Depository institution means an entity described in section 19(b) of 
the Federal Reserve Act.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Under section 19(b) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 
461(b)), the term depository institution means:
    (i) Any insured bank as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1813 or any bank which 
is eligible to make application to become an insured bank under 12 
U.S.C. 1815;
    (ii) Any mutual savings bank as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1813 or any 
bank which is eligible to make application to become an insured bank 
under 12 U.S.C. 1815;
    (iii) Any savings bank as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1813 or any bank 
which is eligible to make application to become an insured bank under 12 
U.S.C. 1815;
    (iv) Any insured credit union as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1752 or any 
credit union which is eligible to make application to become an insured 
credit union pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 1781;
    (v) Any member as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1422; and
    (vi) Any insured institution as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1724 or any 
institution which is eligible to make application to become an insured 
institution under 12 U.S.C. 1726.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Fiscal agency check means any check drawn upon a Reserve Bank and 
issued on the Department's behalf by the Reserve Bank in its capacity as 
fiscal agent of the United States for payments in connection with United 
States securities.
    Payee means the person to whom a fiscal agency check is made 
payable.
    Payor Reserve Bank means the Reserve Bank on which a fiscal agency 
check is drawn.
    Presenting bank means a depository institution which sends a fiscal 
agency check directly to a Reserve Bank for payment or collection.
    Reserve Bank or Federal Reserve Bank means any Federal Reserve Bank 
or any branch of a Federal Reserve Bank.
    Security means a direct obligation of the United States, including 
Treasury bill, note, or savings bond/note.



Sec. 355.3  Presentment.

    (a) Manner of presentment. Presentment of a fiscal agency check must 
be made to the payor Reserve Bank. Such Reserve Bank will cash a fiscal 
agency check over-the-counter only if presented by the payee and the 
payee can be reasonably identified to the satisfaction of the Reserve 
Bank. Otherwise, a fiscal agency check must be

[[Page 336]]

presented through banking channels. A refusal to accept or pay a fiscal 
agency check presented over-the-counter by a person other than the payee 
or by a payee not reasonably identified does not constitute dishonor.
    (b) Time limit on presentment. A payor Reserve Bank may refuse to 
pay a fiscal agency check presented to it more than six (6) months after 
the issue date on the check. A fiscal agency check not timely presented 
should be surrendered by the holder to the payor Reserve Bank with a 
request for issuance of a replacement check pursuant to Sec. 355.5 (d) 
of this part.



Sec. 355.4  Presentment warranties.

    (a) Warranties under Regulation J and State law; modifications. A 
presenting bank makes the warranties required of a sender under Subpart 
A of Regulation J. This paragraph does not limit any warranty by a 
presenter or other party arising under State law. Neither the Department 
nor a Reserve Bank is barred from recovering on a breach of warranty 
solely because:
    (1) The negligence of the Department or of a Reserve Bank, as fiscal 
agent, had contributed to a fraudulent indorsement or material 
alteration;
    (2) The Department or a Reserve Bank, as fiscal agent, had failed 
promptly to discover an unauthorized signature or alteration; or
    (3) An imposter had fraudulently caused the issuance of a fiscal 
agency check in the name of any existing payee; or
    (4) An employee of the Department or a Reserve Bank, as fiscal 
agent, had fraudulently caused the issuance of a fiscal agency check in 
the name of any existing payee.
    (b) Effect of breach of warranty. In the event of a breach of 
warranty, the payor Reserve Bank may either return the item to the 
presenting bank or send to the presenting bank notice of the breach. If, 
upon receipt of the returned check or notice of breach, the presenting 
bank does not make prompt restitution, the Department may begin 
appropriate collection procedures.



Sec. 355.5  Notice and replacement--non-receipt, theft, loss or destruction; late presentment.

    (a) Notification. If a fiscal agency check is not received by the 
payee within a reasonable time after a payment is due, or if the check 
is lost, stolen or destroyed, prompt notification thereof should be made 
to the payor Reserve Bank or directly to the Department, as appropriate. 
The notice may be given by telephone, but if it is given by telephone, 
such notice must be confirmed in writing before a replacement check is 
issued. The notification must contain sufficient information to enable 
the payor Reserve Bank or the Department to identify the account and/or 
the security to which the payment is related. Payment on a fiscal agency 
check will be stopped if the notice of non-receipt, loss, theft, or 
destruction is received at such time and in such manner as to afford the 
payor Reserve Bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it prior to final 
payment, as provided by applicable law.
    (b) Replacement action. The payor Reserve Bank will issue a 
replacement fiscal agency check if:
    (1) Written notice, as provided in paragraph (a) of this section, is 
submitted;
    (2) The fiscal agency check is unpaid;
    (3) It determines that recovery of the original check is unlikely; 
and
    (4) The payee and endorsee, if any, of the check execute such 
indemnification agreement as may be required.
    (c) Recovery before replacement. If prior to the issuance of a 
replacement fiscal agency check, the original check is recovered by the 
payee or any holder, and such recovery is confirmed in writing, the stop 
payment order against the check will be removed. If a replacement check 
was issued, the original check should be returned to the payor Reserve 
Bank.
    (d) Late presentment. If a payor Reserve Bank refuses payment on a 
fiscal agency check solely as a result of Sec. 355.3(b) of this part, a 
replacement check will be issued to a payee or holder upon surrender of 
the original check and execution of such indemnification agreement as 
may be required.

[[Page 337]]

    (e) Improper endorsement. Upon verification of the existence of a 
forged or unauthorized endorsement on a fiscal agency check which has 
been finally paid, the payor Reserve Bank shall issue a replacement 
check to the person entitled. In any event, the payee or endorsee of the 
check will be required to execute an affidavit asserting that there has 
been a forged or unauthorized endorsement, in addition to any required 
indemnification agreement.
    (f) Payment to two or more persons. In the case of a fiscal agency 
check payable to the order of two or more persons, the requirements of 
this section apply to all designated payees.
[50 FR 42519, Oct. 21, 1985; 50 FR 46284, Nov. 7, 1985]



Sec. 355.6  Additional requirements.

    In any case or any class of cases arising under these regulations, 
the Secretary of the Treasury (Secretary) may require such additional 
evidence of loss, improper endorsement or entitlement to a replacement 
as may in the judgment of the Secretary be necessary for the protection 
of the interests of the United States.



Sec. 355.7  Waiver of regulations.

    The Secretary reserves the right, in the Secretary's discretion, to 
waive any provision(s) of these regulations in any case or class of 
cases for the convenience of the United States or in order to relieve 
any person(s) of unnecessary hardship, if such action is not 
inconsistent with law, does not impair any existing rights, and the 
Secretary is satisfied that such action will not subject the United 
States to any substantial expense or liability.



Sec. 355.8  Supplements, amendments or revisions.

    The Secretary may, at any time, prescribe additional supplemental, 
amendatory or revised regulations with respect to fiscal agency checks.

                     Subpart A--General Information



Sec. 356.0  Authority for sale and issue.

    The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized under chapter 31 of 
title 31, United States Code, to issue United States obligations and to 
offer them for sale under such terms and conditions as the Secretary may 
prescribe.



Sec. 356.1  Applicability.

    Unless otherwise specified in an offering announcement, the 
provisions in this part, including the appendices, govern the sale and 
issuance of all marketable Treasury securities and any other obligations 
issued by the Secretary that, by the terms of the offering announcement, 
are made subject to this part.



Sec. 356.2  Definitions.

    In this part, unless the context indicates otherwise:
    Accrued interest means an amount payable to the Department for such 
part of the next semiannual interest payment that represents interest 
income attributed to the period prior to the date of issue. (See 
appendix B, section I, paragraph C.)
    Adjusted value means, for an interest component stripped from an 
inflation-indexed security, an amount derived by multiplying the 
semiannual interest rate by the par amount and then multiplying this 
value by 100 divided by the Reference CPI of the original issue date (or 
dated date, when the dated date is different from the original issue 
date). (See Appendix B, Section IV to this part, for an example of how 
to calculate the adjusted value for interest components stripped from an 
inflation-indexed security.)
    Auction means a bidding process by which the Department sells 
marketable Treasury securities to the public.
    Autocharge agreement means a written agreement between a submitter

authorized, to a TREASURY DIRECT account, and to charge a funds account 
of the depository institution for the settlement amount of the 
securities. (See exhibit B for a sample autocharge agreement between a 
submitter and a depository institution.)
    Bid means an offer to purchase a stated par amount of securities, 
either competitively or noncompetitively, in an auction. An offer to 
purchase a stated par amount of securities submitted by a depository 
institution or dealer to fulfill a guarantee to sell a specified amount 
of securities at an agreed-upon price or a price fixed in terms of an 
agreed-upon standard is a bid of the depository institution or dealer 
and not a bid of a customer.
    Bidder, as further defined in appendix A, means a person or an 
entity that bids either directly or through an entity authorized to 
submit bids for customers in an auction. In some cases, two or more 
persons or entities are considered to be one bidder based on their 
relationship or their actions in participating in an auction.
    Book-entry security means a security the issuance and maintenance of 
which are represented by an accounting entry or electronic record and 
not by a certificate. Treasury book-entry securities may generally be

day on which the Federal Reserve Banks are not open for business.

maturity, at the option of the Secretary.

thereunder.

securities at a specified yield or discount rate.
    Consumer Price Index (CPI) means the monthly non-seasonally adjusted

of Labor. (See appendix D.)

future callable semiannual interest payments, if any.
    CUSIP means Committee on Uniform Securities Identification 
Procedures.

separate security issue and each separate STRIPS component. CUSIP 
numbers are provided by the CUSIP Service Bureau of Standard & Poor's 
Corporation.
    Customer means a bidder on whose behalf a depository institution or 
dealer has been directed to submit or forward a competitive or 
noncompetitive bid for a specified amount of securities in a specific 
auction. Only depository institutions and dealers may submit or forward 
bids for customers, whether directly to a Federal Reserve Bank or the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, or through an intermediary depository 
institution or dealer.
    Daily interest decimal means, for a fixed-principal security, the 
interest factor attributable to one day of an interest payment period 
per $1,000 par amount.

interest accrues is prior to the issue date.
    Dealer means an entity that is registered or has given notice of its 
status as a government securities broker or government securities 
dealer, pursuant to Section 15C(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934.

dated date, when the dated date is different from the original issue 
date). (See appendix B, section I, paragraph B.)

    Investment adviser means any person or entity that has investment 
discretion for the bids or positions of a person or entity not 
considered part of the investment adviser under the bidder definitions 
in Appendix A of this part. Investment discretion includes determining 
what, how many, and when securities shall be purchased or sold. A person 
or entity managing investments for itself is not considered an

it bid.

weighted average yield or discount rate of awards to competitive 
bidders.

    Par amount means the stated value of a security at original 
issuance.
    Person means a natural person.

this part, and any other obligation issued by the Secretary that, by the 
terms of the applicable offering announcement, is made subject to this

STRIPS program (see below).
    Settlement means final and complete payment for securities awarded 
in an auction.
    Settlement amount means the par amount of securities awarded less 
any discount amount and plus any premium amount and/or any accrued

includes any inflation adjustment when such securities are reopened or 
when the dated date is different from the issue date.
    Single-price auction means an auction in which all successful 
bidders pay the same price regardless of the yields or rates they each 
bid.
    STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of 
Securities) means the Department's program under which eligible 
securities are authorized to be separated into principal and interest 
components, and transferred separately. These components are maintained 
in book-entry accounts, and transferred, in TRADES.
    Submitter means the person or entity submitting bids directly to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or the Bureau of the Public Debt for its own 
account, for the account of others, or both. The only submitters that

institutions and dealers.
    Tender means the document or computer transmission submitted to a 
Federal Reserve Bank or the Bureau of the Public Debt by which a bidder 
bids for securities.
    TINT means an interest component from a stripped security.
    TRADES means the Treasury/Reserve Automated Debt Entry System.
    TREASURY DIRECT means the TREASURY DIRECT Book-Entry Securities 
System. (See 31 CFR part 357, subpart C.)

par amount of securities allotted at each yield or discount rate.
    Yield, also referred to as ``yield to maturity,'' means the 
annualized rate of return to maturity on a fixed-principal security 
expressed as a percentage. For an inflation-indexed security, yield 
means the real yield. (See appendix B.)

Sec. 356.3  Book-entry securities and systems.

    Securities issued subject to this part shall be held and transferred 
in either of the two book-entry securities systems--TRADES or TREASURY 
DIRECT--described in this section. Securities are maintained and 
transferred, to the extent authorized in 31 CFR part 357, in these two 
book-entry systems at their par amount, e.g., for inflation-indexed 
securities, adjustments for inflation will not be included in this 
amount. Securities may be transferred

[[Page 342]]

from one system to the other in accordance with Treasury regulations 
governing book-entry Treasury bills, notes, and bonds. See Department of 
the Treasury Circular, Public Debt Series No. 2-86, as amended (31 CFR 
part 357).
    (a) Treasury/Reserve Automated Debt Entry System (TRADES). TRADES is 
established, maintained and operated by the Federal Reserve Banks acting 
as fiscal agents of the United States, pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 391. The 
Federal Reserve Banks maintain book-entry accounts for themselves, 
depository institutions, and other authorized entities, such as 
government and international agencies and foreign central banks. In 
their accounts, depository institutions maintain securities held for 
their own account and for the accounts of others, including other 
depository institutions and dealers, which may, in turn, maintain 
accounts for others. For accounts maintained in TRADES, Treasury 
discharges its payment obligations when payment is credited to the 
applicable account maintained at a Federal Reserve Bank or payment is 
made in accordance with the instructions of the person or entity 
maintaining such account. Further, neither Treasury nor the Federal 
Reserve Banks have any obligations to, nor will they recognize any 
claims of, any person or entity that does not have an account at a 
Federal Reserve Bank. In addition, neither Treasury nor the Federal 
Reserve Banks will recognize the claims of any person or entity with 
respect to any accounts not maintained at a Federal Reserve Bank.
    (b) TREASURY DIRECT. TREASURY DIRECT is a system in which the book-
entry securities of account holders are identified and maintained 
directly on the records of the Bureau of the Public Debt, Department of 
the Treasury. In TREASURY DIRECT, Treasury discharges its payment 
obligations when payment is made to a depository institution for credit 
to the account specified by the owner of the security, or when payment 
is made in accordance with the instructions of the owner of the 
security.

FR 850, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.4  Functions of Federal Reserve Banks.

    Federal Reserve Banks, as fiscal agents of the United States, are 
authorized to perform all activities necessary to carry out the 
provisions of this part, any offering announcements, and applicable 
regulations.



Sec. 356.5  Description of securities.

    Securities offered pursuant to this part are offered exclusively in 
book-entry form and are direct obligations of the United States, issued 
under chapter 31 of title 31 of the United States Code. The securities 
are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this part, 
including the appendices, as well as the regulations governing book-
entry Treasury bills, notes, and bonds (31 CFR part 357), and the 
offering announcements, all to the extent applicable. When the 
Department issues additional securities with the same CUSIP number as 
outstanding securities, all securities with the same CUSIP number are 
considered the same security.
    (a) Treasury bills. Treasury bills are issued at a discount, are 
redeemed at their par amount at maturity, and have maturities of not 
more than one year.
    (b) Treasury notes--(1) Treasury fixed-principal 1 notes. 
Treasury fixed-principal notes are issued with a stated rate of interest 
to be applied to the par amount, have interest payable semiannually, and 
are redeemed at their par amount at maturity. They are sold at discount, 
par, or premium, depending upon the auction results. They have 
maturities of at least one year, but not more than ten years.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The term ``fixed-principal'' is used in this part to distinguish 
such securities from ``inflation-indexed'' securities. Fixed-principal 
notes and fixed-principal bonds are referred to as ``notes'' and 
``bonds'' in official Treasury publications, such as offering 
announcements and auction results press releases, as well as in auction 
systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) Treasury inflation-indexed notes. Treasury inflation-indexed 
notes are issued with a stated rate of interest to be applied to the 
inflation-adjusted principal on each interest payment date, have 
interest payable semiannually, and are redeemed at maturity at

[[Page 343]]

their inflation-adjusted principal, or at their par amount, whichever is 
greater. They are sold at discount, par, or premium, depending upon the 
auction results. They have maturities of at least one year, but not more 
than ten years. (See appendix B for price and interest payment 
calculations and appendix C for Investment Considerations.)
    (c) Treasury bonds--(1) Treasury fixed-principal bonds. Treasury 
fixed-principal bonds are issued with a stated rate of interest to be 
applied to the par amount, have interest payable semiannually, and are 
redeemed at their par amount at maturity. They are sold at discount, 
par, or premium, depending upon the auction results. They typically have 
maturities of more than ten years.
    (2) Treasury inflation-indexed bonds. Treasury inflation-indexed 
bonds are issued with a stated rate of interest to be applied to the 
inflation-adjusted principal on each interest payment date, have 
interest payable semiannually, and are redeemed at maturity at their 
inflation-adjusted principal, or at their par amount, whichever is 
greater. They are sold at discount, par, or premium, depending upon the 
auction results. They typically have maturities of more than ten years. 
(See appendix B for price and interest payment calculations and appendix 
C for Investment Considerations.)

             Subpart B--Bidding, Certifications, and Payment



Sec. 356.10  Offering announcement.

    The Department provides public notice of the sale of bills, notes, 
and bonds by issuing an offering announcement. The offering announcement 
lists the specifics of each offering, e.g., offering amount, term and 
type of security, CUSIP number, and issue and maturity dates. The 
offering announcement and this part, including the Appendices, specify 
the terms and conditions of sale. To the extent that the provisions of 
an offering announcement are inconsistent with the provisions of this 
part, the provisions of the offering announcement will control. 
Accordingly, bidders should read the applicable offering announcement in 
conjunction with this part. (See Exhibit A for sample announcements.)
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 62 FR 851, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.11  Submission of bids.

    (a) General. (1) Bids may be submitted directly to a Federal Reserve 
Bank that is authorized to accept tenders or to the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, Washington, DC, or through a depository institution or dealer that 
is authorized, pursuant to Sec. 356.14, to submit bids on behalf of 
customers. Except as otherwise provided, tenders must be submitted in an 
approved format, including the use of preassigned identification 
numbers, where applicable. Competitive and noncompetitive bids must be 
received prior to the respective closing times specified in the offering 
announcement, except as provided in paragraph (b)(2) of this section. 
Bids not received timely will not be recognized in the auction. Bids for 
securities are binding on the bidder after the closing time specified in 
the offering announcement.
    (2) If the awarded securities are to be issued in TRADES, a 
submitter must have on file at a Federal Reserve Bank a certificate 
listing those persons who are authorized to submit tenders on its 
behalf. The certificate must be duly executed by an authorized person on 
behalf of the submitter. A tender will not be recognized if the person 
submitting the tender is not listed on the certificate. The submitter is 
responsible for any tenders submitted for the submitter by persons who 
are designated on the certificate as authorized to submit tenders on its 
behalf.
    (b) Submission of paper tenders. (1) Paper tenders should be on 
preprinted forms provided by the Federal Reserve Bank to which the 
tender is submitted or preprinted forms of the Bureau of the Public 
Debt, and should provide the information requested on the form. Paper 
tenders in any other form or incomplete tenders may be accepted or 
rejected at the option of the Department.
    (2) For competitive bids, if securities are to be delivered to more 
than one account, a separate paper tender must

[[Page 344]]

be submitted for each delivery instruction specified.
    (3) The submitter is responsible for ensuring that the paper tender 
is received timely at the Federal Reserve Bank or the Bureau of the 
Public Debt, Washington, DC. A noncompetitive bid is considered timely 
if received prior to the deadline for the receipt of noncompetitive 
tenders. Further, a noncompetitive bid received after the deadline for 
the receipt of noncompetitive tenders is considered timely only if it 
was submitted by mail and only if the envelope containing the tender 
bears a U.S. Postal Service cancellation date prior to the auction date 
and the tender is received on or before the issue date.
    (4) Neither the Federal Reserve Bank nor the Department shall be, in 
any way, responsible for any unauthorized paper tender submissions or 
for any delays, errors, or omissions in the submission of paper tenders.
    (c) Submission of tenders by computer. Competitive and 
noncompetitive tenders may be submitted by computer transmission to a 
Federal Reserve Bank. Tenders may be submitted by computer only by those 
submitters that have previously arranged with a Federal Reserve Bank for 
such submission.
    (1) For computer tenders, the submitter must comply with computer 
communications and electronic access standards and requirements for 
Treasury auctions. Incomplete tenders or transmissions that do not 
comply with such standards and requirements may be accepted or rejected 
at the option of the Department.
    (2) All tenders submitted by computer are binding on the submitter 
to the same extent as if they had been paper tenders. No paper tender 
should be submitted that duplicates a tender submitted by computer.
    (3) Tenders submitted by computer must be received by the applicable 
closing time; the Federal Reserve Bank's computer time stamp will 
establish the time of receipt.
    (4) The submitter bears sole risk for any disruption or failure in 
the operation of its own computer, any electronic-based communications 
facilities, or any communications lines between the submitter and the 
Federal Reserve Bank.
    (5) The submitter is responsible for tenders submitted using 
computer equipment on its premises, whether or not such tenders are 
authorized.
    (6) Neither the Federal Reserve Bank nor the Department shall be, in 
any way, responsible for any delays, errors, or omissions in the 
submission of tenders.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 59 FR 28774, June 3, 1994; 61 FR 
37010, July 16, 1996; 61 FR 43637, Aug. 23, 1996]



Sec. 356.12  Noncompetitive and competitive bidding.

    (a) General. All bids, including bids for reopenings, must state the 
par amount of securities bid for and must equal or exceed the minimum 
bid amount stated in the offering announcement. Bids that exceed the 
minimum bid amount must be in the multiple stated in the offering 
announcement.
    (b) Noncompetitive. A bidder bidding competitively for its own 
account may not bid noncompetitively for its own account in the same 
auction. A request for reinvestment of securities maturing in TREASURY 
DIRECT is a noncompetitive bid.
    (1) Maximum bid. A bidder may not bid noncompetitively for more than 
$1 million in a bill auction or more than $5 million in a note or bond 
auction. The maximum bid limitation does not apply to bidders who are 
bidding solely through TREASURY DIRECT reinvestment requests.
    (2) Additional restrictions. Between the date of the offering 
announcement and the time of the official announcement by the Department 
of the auction results, a noncompetitive bidder may not hold, at any 
time, a position for its own account in when-issued trading or in 
futures or forward contracts in the security being auctioned or enter 
into any agreement to purchase or sell or otherwise dispose of the 
securities it is acquiring in the auction. For purposes of this 
paragraph, futures contracts include those:
    (i) That require delivery of the specific security being auctioned;

[[Page 345]]

    (ii) For which the security being auctioned is one of several 
securities that may be delivered; or
    (iii) That are cash-settled.
    (c) Competitive. A bidder bidding noncompetitively for its own 
account may not bid competitively for its own account in the same 
auction.
    (1) Bid format--(i) Treasury bills. For all bills except cash 
management bills, a competitive bid must show the discount rate bid, 
expressed with three decimals in .005 percent increments. The third 
decimal must be either a zero or a five, e.g., 5.320 or 5.325. Fractions 
may not be used. For cash management bills, a competitive bid must show 
the discount rate bid, expressed with two decimals in .01 percent 
increments, e.g., 5.14. Fractions may not be used.
    (ii) Treasury fixed-principal securities. A competitive bid must 
show the yield bid, expressed with three decimals, e.g., 4.170. 
Fractions may not be used.
    (iii) Treasury inflation-indexed securities. A competitive bid must 
show the real yield bid, expressed with three decimals, e.g., 3.070. 
Fractions may not be used.
    (2) Maximum recognized bid. There is no limitation on the maximum 
dollar amount that a bidder may bid for competitively, either at one 
yield or discount rate, or at different yields or discount rates. 
However, a competitive bid by a bidder at a single yield or discount 
rate that exceeds 35% of the public offering amount will be reduced to 
that amount. For example, if the public offering is $10 billion, the 
maximum bid amount that will be recognized at any one yield or discount 
rate from any bidder is $3.5 billion. (See Sec. 356.22 for award 
limitations.)
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 60 FR 13907, Mar. 15, 1995; 62 
FR 851, Jan. 6, 1997; 62 FR 32033, June 12, 1997; 62 FR 43093, Aug. 12, 
1997; 63 FR 4187, Jan. 28, 1998]



Sec. 356.13  Net long position.

    (a) Reporting net long positions. When bidding competitively, a 
bidder must report the amount of its net long position when the total of 
all of its bids in an auction plus the bidder's net long position in the 
security being auctioned equals or exceeds the net long position 
reporting threshold amount. The net long position reporting threshold 
amount for any particular security will be as stated in the offering 
announcement for that security. (See Sec. 356.10.) That amount will be 
$1 billion for bills, and $2 billion for notes and bonds, unless 
otherwise stated in the offering announcement. If the bidder either has 
no position or has a net short position and the total of all of its bids 
equals or exceeds the net long position reporting threshold amount, 
e.g., $1 billion for bills and $2 billion for notes and bonds, a net 
long position of zero must be reported. In cases where a bidder that is 
required to report the amount of its net long position has more than one 
bid, the bidder's total net long position should be reported in 
connection with only one bid. A bidder that is a customer must report 
its reportable net long position through only one depository institution 
or dealer. (See Sec. 356.14(c).)
    (b) Determination of net long position. The net long position must 
be determined as of the designated reporting time, which is one-half 
hour prior to the closing time for receipt of competitive bids. A net 
long position includes the par amount of:
    (1) Holdings of outstanding securities with the same CUSIP number as 
the security being auctioned;
    (2) Positions, in the security being auctioned, in
    (i) When-issued trading,
    (ii) Futures contracts that require delivery of the specific 
security being auctioned (but not futures contracts for which the 
security being auctioned is one of several securities that may be 
delivered, and not futures contracts that are cash-settled), and
    (iii) Forward contracts; and
    (3) Holdings of STRIPS principal components of the security being 
auctioned, including when-issued trading positions of such principal 
components.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 62 FR 25115, May 8, 1997; 62 FR 
43093, Aug. 12, 1997]



Sec. 356.14  Submitting bids for customers.

    Depository institutions and dealers may submit bids for their own 
account, for their customers, or for customers of intermediaries, 
subject to the requirements set out in paragraphs (a), (b),

[[Page 346]]

and (c) of this section. Others are permitted to submit bids only for 
their own account.
    (a) Payment. By submitting a bid on behalf of its customer or a 
customer of any intermediary, a submitter agrees to remit payment for 
securities awarded as a result of such bid.
    (b) Customer lists. A customer list must be submitted or be 
available, as provided in paragraphs (b) (1), (2) and (3), whenever bids 
for more than one customer are included on the same tender. The customer 
list must include direct customers of the submitter as well as customers 
of any intermediaries who are forwarding customer bids to the submitter.
    (1) For competitive bids submitted by paper tender, the submitter 
must provide a separate tender for each yield or discount rate at which 
a bid is submitted. As a part of such tender, the submitter must provide 
a list that includes the full name of each customer and the amount bid 
by each customer. For competitive bids submitted by computer, the 
submitter may submit bids at multiple yields or discount rates on the 
same tender. On each such tender, the submitter must submit the full 
name of each customer and the amount bid at each yield or discount rate 
by each customer.
    (2) For noncompetitive bids, a list must be provided that includes 
the full name of each customer and the amount bid by each customer. For 
mailed tenders, the customer list must be submitted with the tender. For 
other than mailed tenders, the customer list should accompany the 
tender. If the customer list is not submitted with the tender, 
information for the list must be complete and available for review by 
the deadline for submission of noncompetitive tenders, and must be 
received by the Federal Reserve Bank to which the tender was submitted 
by close of business on the auction day.
    (3) Bids submitted on behalf of trusts or other fiduciary estates 
must identify on the customer list the full name or title of the trustee 
or fiduciary; a reference to the document creating the trust or 
fiduciary estate with date of execution; and the employer identification 
number of the trust or fiduciary estate.
    (c) Net long position of customers. (1) A submitter or intermediary, 
when submitting or forwarding a competitive bid of $100 million or more 
for its customer, must inform that customer of the customer's net long 
position reporting obligation as described in Sec. 356.13.
    (2) A submitter or intermediary, when submitting or forwarding a 
competitive bid for a customer, must report the net long position amount 
if such amount is provided by the customer.
    (3) If personnel of a submitter or intermediary who are directly 
involved in receiving or forwarding a customer's bid know that the 
position information provided by a customer is incorrect, the customer's 
bid shall not be submitted or forwarded by the submitter or 
intermediary.
    (4) If the amount of a customer's net long position is to be 
reported by the submitter by paper tender, a separate tender must be 
submitted for that customer that includes the amount of the net long 
position.



Sec. 356.15  Bidding through investment advisers.

    (a) General. Where bids or positions of a person or entity are 
controlled by an investment adviser, such bids or positions are 
considered to be a controlled account, separate from the bids and 
positions of any person or entity with which they would otherwise be 
associated under the bidder definitions in appendix A of this part. The 
investment adviser may bid for controlled accounts by including, in a 
bid in the adviser's name, amounts that it is investing for the 
controlled accounts. The investment adviser may also bid for controlled 
accounts in the names of such accounts. Where bids are in an investment 
adviser's name, the investment adviser is considered the bidder for such 
bids and, where bids are in the name of a controlled account, the named 
controlled account is considered the bidder, for all purposes of this 
part 356, except as specified in this Sec. 356.15.
    (b) Noncompetitive and competitive bidding. Regardless of whether 
the bid for a controlled account is in the name of the investment 
adviser or in the name of the controlled account, such account

[[Page 347]]

may not be bid for both noncompetitively and competitively in the same 
auction. In addition, such account is subject to the noncompetitive 
bidding restrictions and award limitations contained in Secs. 356.12(b) 
and 356.22(a).
    (c) Reporting net long positions. In calculating the amount of its 
bids and positions for purposes of the net long position reporting 
requirement found in Sec. 356.13(a), the investment adviser must 
include, in addition to what would otherwise be included for the 
investment adviser as a bidder under the bidder definitions, all other 
competitive bids and positions controlled by the investment adviser. The 
investment adviser may exclude any net long position less than $100 
million of any nonproprietary controlled account unless the adviser is 
placing a competitive bid for that account either in the name of the 
investment adviser or in the name of the account. However, if any net 
long position less than $100 million of any nonproprietary account not 
being bid for is excluded, then all net short positions less than $100 
million of nonproprietary accounts not being bid for must also be 
excluded. Regardless of whether the investment adviser bids in its own 
name or in the name of its controlled accounts, if the net long position 
is reportable, it must be reported as a total in connection with only 
one bid in accordance with Sec. 356.13(a).
    (d) Submitting bids for controlled accounts. Notwithstanding the 
definition of submitter found in Sec. 356.2, and the restriction against 
submitting bids for others found in Sec. 356.14, an investment adviser 
may submit bids, whether in the adviser's own name or in the names of 
its controlled accounts, directly to a Federal Reserve Bank or the 
Bureau of the Public Debt, in which case the investment adviser is 
considered a submitter. In the alternative, the investment adviser may 
forward such bids to a depository institution or dealer.
    (e) Certifications. By bidding for a controlled account, an 
investment adviser is deemed to have certified that it is in compliance 
with this part and the offering announcement governing the sale and 
issue of the security. Further, the investment adviser is deemed to have 
certified that the information provided on the tender or provided to a 
submitter or intermediary with regard to bids for controlled accounts is 
accurate and complete.
    (f) Proration of awards. In auctions where bids at the highest 
accepted yield or discount rate are prorated under Sec. 356.20(a)(2) of 
this part, investment advisers that submit bids for controlled accounts 
in the names of such accounts are responsible for prorating awards for 
their controlled accounts at the same percentage as that announced by 
the Department. The same prorating rules apply to controlled accounts as 
apply to submitters. See Sec. 356.21 of this part.
[61 FR 37010, July 16, 1996]



Sec. 356.16  Certifications.

    (a) Submitters. By submitting a tender for a security, a submitter 
is deemed to have certified that it is in compliance with this part and 
the offering announcement governing the sale and issue of the security. 
Further, the submitter is deemed to have certified that the information 
provided on the tender with regard to bids for its own account is 
accurate and complete, and that the information provided on the tender 
with regard to bids for customers accurately and completely reflects 
information provided to it by its customers or intermediaries. Prior to 
submitting a computer tender, a submitter must have on file a written 
certification that the submitter is certifying, each time it submits a 
computer tender, that it is in compliance with this part and the 
applicable offering announcement. The certification must be signed and 
dated by an authorized person on behalf of the submitter, be filed with 
the Federal Reserve Bank to which the computer tender is submitted, and 
be renewed at least annually.
    (b) Intermediaries. By forwarding a bid, an intermediary is deemed 
to have certified that it is in compliance with this part and the 
offering announcement governing the sale and issue of the security. 
Further, the intermediary is deemed to have certified that the 
information provided to a submitter or other intermediary with regard to 
bids for its own account is accurate and complete, and that the 
information

[[Page 348]]

provided to a submitter or other intermediary with regard to bids for 
customers accurately and completely reflects information provided to it 
by its customers or intermediaries.
    (c) Customers. By bidding for a security, a customer is deemed to 
have certified that it is in compliance with this part and the offering 
announcement governing the sale and issue of the security and that the 
information it provided to the submitter or intermediary in connection 
with the bid is accurate and complete.

Sec. 356.17  Responsibility for payment.

    A bidder agrees to pay the settlement amount for any securities 
awarded to it in the auction. (See Sec. 356.25.) In addition, certain 
payments or provisions for payment are required at the time a tender is 
submitted. The specific requirements, outlined in this section, depend 
on whether awarded securities will be delivered in TREASURY DIRECT or 
TRADES.
    (a) TREASURY DIRECT. For securities to be held in TREASURY DIRECT, 
payment of the par amount and announced accrued interest and/or 
inflation adjustment, if any, must be submitted with the tender unless 
other provisions have been made, such as payment by an authorized 
electronic means providing for immediately available funds or by charge 
to the funds account of a depository institution.
    (1) Payment with tender. For bills, payment must be by cash, 
depository institution (cashier's or teller's) check, certified check, 
currently dated Treasury or fiscal agency check made payable to the 
bidder, or definitive Treasury securities maturing on or before the 
issue date of the securities being auctioned, but which are not overdue 
as defined in the general regulations governing United States securities 
(31 CFR 306.25). Also, maturing securities held in TREASURY DIRECT may 
be used as payment for new securities that are being offered, provided 
that the appropriate transaction request is received timely. For notes 
or bonds, payment must be in one of the forms described above for bills, 
or by personal check. Checks submitted to a Federal Reserve Bank must be 
made payable to that Bank and checks submitted to the Bureau of the 
Public Debt must be made payable to the Bureau of the Public Debt.
    (2) Payment by authorized electronic means. Payment may be made by 
electronic means approved by the Department, provided the bidder, or the 
submitter on behalf of the bidder, has met the necessary conditions and 
has satisfactorily completed any required authorizations for such means 
of payment, in accordance with 31 CFR part 370.
    (3) Authorized charge to a funds account. If a depository 
institution or dealer submits a tender for a TREASURY DIRECT bidder and 
payment is not submitted with the tender or made by an authorized 
electronic means, an authorization from a depository institution to 
charge the institution's funds account at a Federal Reserve Bank must be 
on file with the Bank to which the tender was submitted.
    (b) TRADES. For securities to be held in TRADES, payment of the par 
amount and announced accrued interest and/or inflation adjustment, if 
any, must be submitted with the tender unless other provisions have been 
made, such as payment by an authorized electronic means providing for 
immediately available funds or by charge to the funds account of a 
depository institution.
    (1) Payment with tender. Where payment is submitted with the tender, 
payment must be by one of the means specified under paragraph (a)(1) of 
this section.
    (2) Payment by authorized electronic means. Payment may be made by 
electronic means approved by the Department, provided the bidder, or the 
submitter on behalf of the bidder, has met the necessary conditions, and 
has satisfactorily completed any required authorizations, for such means 
of payment.
    (3) Authorized charge to a funds account. Where payment is not 
submitted with the tender or made by an authorized electronic means, an 
authorization to charge the funds account of a depository institution 
must be provided as follows:

[[Page 349]]

    (i) A depository institution with a funds account submitting tenders 
directly to a Federal Reserve Bank may authorize the Bank to charge its 
funds account upon delivery of the securities.
    (ii) A submitter that chooses not to pay by charge to its funds 
account or a submitter that does not have a funds account must, prior to 
the submission of a tender, have an acknowledged autocharge agreement on 
file at the Federal Reserve Bank to which the tender is submitted. By 
submitting a tender for securities to be paid for under such autocharge 
agreement, the submitter authorizes the Federal Reserve Bank to provide, 
to the depository institution whose funds account will be charged under 
the agreement, notice of the total par amount of, and price to be 
charged for, securities awarded as a result of the submitter's tender.
    (iii) In addition, a submitter that is a member of a clearing 
corporation may instruct that delivery and payment be made through the 
clearing corporation for securities awarded to the submitter for its own 
account, provided that the following requirements are met:
    (A) The submitter must, prior to the submission of a tender for such 
securities, have a delivery and payment agreement with the clearing 
corporation acknowledged by, and on file at, the Federal Reserve Bank to 
which the tender is submitted. By entering into such an agreement, the 
submitter authorizes the Federal Reserve Bank to provide to the clearing 
corporation notice of the par amounts of, prices to be charged for, and 
total payment amounts for, securities awarded to the submitter for its 
own account.
    (B) An autocharge agreement between the clearing corporation and the 
depository institution must, prior to the submission of a tender for 
such securities, be acknowledged by, and on file at, the Federal Reserve 
Bank servicing the depository institution. By entering into such an 
agreement, the clearing corporation authorizes the Federal Reserve Bank 
to which the tender is submitted to provide, to the depository 
institution whose funds account will be charged under the agreement, 
notice of the total aggregate par amount of, prices to be charged for, 
and total payment amounts for, securities to be delivered to the 
clearing corporation's designated account at the depository institution.

         Subpart C--Determination of Auction Awards; Settlement



Sec. 356.20  Determination of auction awards.

    (a) Determining the range and amount of accepted competitive bids--
(1) Accepting bids. Determinations of awards in auctions are made at the 
Bureau of the Public Debt after the closing time for receipt of bids. In 
determining auction awards, the Bureau of the Public Debt first accepts 
in full all noncompetitive bids received by the closing time specified 
in the offering announcement. Then competitive bids are accepted, 
starting with those at the lowest yields or discount rates through 
successively higher yields or discount rates, up to the amount required 
to meet the public offering. Bids at the highest accepted yield or 
discount rate will be prorated (as described in paragraph (a)(2) of this 
section), if necessary. If the amount of noncompetitive bids would 
absorb most or all of the public offering, competitive bids will be 
accepted in an amount determined by the Department to be sufficient to 
provide a fair determination of the yield or discount rate for the 
securities being auctioned.
    (2) Accepting bids at the high yield or discount rate. When the 
total amount of bids at the highest accepted yield or discount rate 
exceeds the amount of the public offering remaining after acceptance of 
noncompetitive bids and competitive bids at the lower yields or discount 
rates, a percentage of the bids received at the highest accepted yield 
or discount rate will be awarded. This proration is performed for the 
purpose of awarding a par amount of securities close to the public 
offering amount. The percentage is derived by dividing the remaining par 
amount needed to fill the public offering by the par amount of the bids 
recognized at the

[[Page 350]]

high yield or rate and rounding up to the next whole percentage point.
    (b) Determining the interest rate for new note and bond issues. The 
interest rate established as a result of the auction will generally be 
set at the \1/8\ of one percent increment that produces the price 
closest to, but not above, par when evaluated at the weighted average 
yield of awards to competitive bidders.
    (c) Determining purchase prices for awarded securities. Price 
calculations will be rounded to three decimal places on the basis of 
price per hundred, e.g., 99.954. (See appendix B.)
    (1) Multiple-price auctions--(i) Competitive bids. The price of 
securities awarded to competitive bidders is the price equivalent to 
each yield or discount rate at which their bids were accepted.
    (ii) Noncompetitive bids. The price of securities awarded to 
noncompetitive bidders is the price equivalent to the weighted average 
yield or discount rate of accepted competitive bids.
    (2) Single-price auctions. The price of securities awarded to both 
competitive and noncompetitive bidders is the price equivalent to the 
highest yield or discount rate at which bids were accepted. For 
inflation-indexed securities, the price of such securities will be the 
price equivalent to the highest real yield at which bids were accepted.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 62 FR 852, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.21  Proration of awards.

    (a) Awards to submitters. In auctions where bids at the highest 
accepted yield or discount rate are prorated under Sec. 356.20(a)(2) of 
this part, the Federal Reserve Banks are responsible for prorating 
awards for submitters at the percentage announced by the Department. For 
example, if 80% is the announced percentage at the highest yield or 
discount rate, then each bid at that rate or yield shall be awarded 80% 
of the amount bid. Hence, a bid for $100,000 at the highest accepted 
yield or discount rate would be awarded $80,000. In all cases, awards 
will be for, at least, the minimum to hold, and awards must be in an 
appropriate multiple to hold. Awards at the highest accepted yield or 
rate are adjusted upwards, if necessary, to an appropriate multiple to 
hold. For example, Treasury bills may be issued with a minimum to hold 
of $10,000 and multiples of $1,000. Where an $18,000 bid is accepted at 
the high discount rate, and the percent awarded at the high discount 
rate was 88%, the award to that bidder would be $16,000, representing an 
upward adjustment from $15,840 ($18,000  x  .88) to an appropriate 
multiple to hold. If tenders at the highest accepted rate were prorated 
at, for example, a rate of 4%, the award for a $100,000 bid would be 
$10,000, instead of $4,000, in order to meet the minimum to hold for a 
bill issue.
    (b) Awards to customers. In auctions where bids at the highest 
accepted yield or discount rate are prorated under Sec. 356.20(a)(2), 
depository institutions and dealers, whether submitters or 
intermediaries, are responsible for prorating awards for their customers 
at the same percentage as that announced by the Department. For example, 
if 80% is the announced percentage at the highest yield or discount 
rate, then each customer bid at that rate or yield shall be awarded 80%. 
The same prorating rules apply to customers as apply to submitters.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 61 FR 37011, July 16, 1996]



Sec. 356.22  Limitation on auction awards.

    (a) Awards to noncompetitive bidders. The maximum award that will be 
made to any bidder is $1 million for bills and $5 million for notes and 
bonds. This does not apply to bidders bidding solely through TREASURY 
DIRECT reinvestment requests.
    (b) Awards to competitive bidders. The maximum award that will be 
made to any bidder is 35% of the public offering less the bidder's net 
long position as reportable under Sec. 356.13. For example, in a note 
auction with a $10 billion public offering, a bidder with a reported net 
long position of $1 billion could receive a maximum auction award of 
$2.5 billion. When the bids and net long positions of more than one 
person or entity must be combined as required by Sec. 356.15(c), such 
combined amount will be used for the purpose of this award limitation.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 61 FR 37011, July 16, 1996]

[[Page 351]]



Sec. 356.23  Announcing auction results.

    After the conclusion of the auction, the Department will make an 
official announcement of the auction results through a press release. 
The press release will include such information as the amounts of bids 
recognized and accepted, the range of yields or discount rates at which 
securities were awarded, noncompetitive yield or discount rate, 
proration percentage, the interest rate for a note or bond, a breakdown 
of the amounts of noncompetitive and competitive bids recognized and 
accepted from the public, the amounts recognized and accepted from the 
Federal Reserve Banks for their own accounts and for foreign and 
international monetary authorities, and the minimum par amount required 
to strip a STRIPS-eligible note or bond.



Sec. 356.24  Notice of awards; confirmations.

    (a) Notice of awards--(1) Notice to submitters. Notice of awards 
will be provided by a Federal Reserve Bank or the Department to 
submitters of successful competitive bids. Submitters of noncompetitive 
bids will be notified only when the price to be paid by noncompetitive 
bidders is over par or if noncompetitive bids are not accepted in full.
    (2) Notice to clearing corporation. If awarded securities are to be 
delivered pursuant to a delivery and payment agreement, notice of the 
awards also will be provided by a Federal Reserve Bank or the Department 
to the clearing corporation that is a party to such agreement.
    (b) Confirmation of award to customer. A submitter submitting a bid 
for customers is responsible for notifying its customers and 
intermediaries that forwarded bids to it of the awards. Similarly, an 
intermediary is responsible for notifying its customers and any 
intermediaries that forwarded bids to it of the awards.
    (c) Confirmation of award and settlement amount to a depository 
institution having an autocharge agreement with a submitter or a 
clearing corporation. Not later than the day after each auction, the 
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank will notify each depository institution 
that has entered into an autocharge agreement with either a submitter or 
a clearing corporation as to the amount to be charged to the 
institution's funds account at the Federal Reserve Bank on the issue 
date.
    (d) Customer confirmation. Any customer awarded a par amount of $500 
million or more in an auction must furnish a confirmation including the 
information in paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section to the Federal 
Reserve Bank to which the bid was submitted, no later than 10:00 a.m. on 
the day following the auction. The confirmation must be signed by the 
customer or authorized representative and must include the capacity in 
which such representative is acting. A submitter or intermediary 
submitting or forwarding a customer bid is responsible for notifying its 
customer of this requirement if the customer is awarded a par amount of 
$500 million or more as a result of bids submitted by the submitter or 
forwarded by the intermediary.
    (1) A written confirmation of its bid, and
    (2) A written statement indicating whether it had a reportable net 
long position as defined in Sec. 356.13, and, if a position had to be 
reported, the amount of any such position and the name of the depository 
institution or dealer through which the customer requested that the 
position be reported.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 59 FR 28775, June 3, 1994]



Sec. 356.25  Payment for awarded securities.

    Payment for securities is to be accomplished by the issue date. 
Payment will be accomplished as follows:
    (a) Payment with tender. When payment is made with the tender as 
provided for in Sec. 356.17 (a)(1) and (b)(1), settlement is 
accomplished as follows:
    (1) When an amount is due the submitter. When the payment previously 
remitted by the submitter exceeds the settlement amount, the balance 
will be refunded to the submitter following the auction.
    (2) When the submitter must remit an additional amount. When the 
settlement amount exceeds the payment previously remitted by the 
submitter, the submitter will be notified of the additional amount due 
and is responsible

[[Page 352]]

for remitting it immediately. Such additional amount may be due if the 
auction calculations result in a premium or if accrued interest and/or 
inflation adjustment is due.
    (b) Payment by authorized electronic means. Where the method of 
payment is by an authorized electronic means as provided for in 
Sec. 356.17 (a)(2) or (b)(2), the settlement amount will be charged to 
the specified account on the issue date.
    (c) Payment by authorized charge to a funds account. Where the 
submitter's method of payment is an authorized charge to the funds 
account of a depository institution as provided for in Sec. 356.17 
(a)(3) or (b)(3), the settlement amount will be charged to the specified 
funds account on the issue date.
    (d) Amount of payment for awarded securities. The payment amount for 
awarded securities will be the settlement amount as defined in 
Sec. 356.2. (See formulas in appendix B.)
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 61 FR 54910, Oct. 22, 1996; 62 
FR 852, Jan. 6, 1997]



                   Subpart D--Miscellaneous Provisions



Sec. 356.30  Payment of principal and interest on notes and bonds.

    (a) General. Principal on notes and bonds will be paid on the 
maturity date as specified in the offering announcement unless the 
security is called pursuant to its terms and in accordance with 
appropriate public notice. Interest on notes and bonds accrues from the 
dated date. Interest is payable on a semiannual basis on the interest 
payment dates specified in the offering announcement through the date 
that the principal becomes payable. In the event any principal or 
interest payment date is not a business day, the amount is payable 
(without additional interest) on the next business day.
    (b) Treasury inflation-indexed securities. At maturity, the 
inflation-adjusted principal will be paid, unless the inflation-adjusted 
principal is less than the par amount of the security, in which case an 
additional amount will be paid at maturity so that the additional amount 
plus the inflation-adjusted principal equals the par amount. If a 
security has been stripped, any such additional amount will be paid at 
maturity to holders of principal components only. Regardless of whether 
or not an additional amount is paid, the final interest payment will be 
based on the inflation-adjusted principal at maturity.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 62 FR 852, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.31  STRIPS.

    (a) General. A note or bond may be designated in the offering 
announcement as eligible for the STRIPS program. At the option of the 
holder, and generally at any time from its issue date until its call or 
maturity, any such security may be ``stripped,'' i.e., divided into 
separate principal and interest components. A short or long first 
interest payment and all interest payments within a callable period are 
not eligible to be stripped from the principal component. The CUSIP 
numbers and payment dates for the principal and interest components are 
provided in the offering announcement if not previously announced.
    (b) Treasury fixed-principal securities--(1) Minimum par amounts 
required for STRIPS. For a fixed-principal security to be stripped into 
the components described above, the par amount of the security must be 
in an amount that, based on its interest rate, will produce a semiannual 
interest payment in a multiple of $1,000. Exhibit C to this part 
provides the minimum par amounts required to strip a fixed-principal 
security at various interest rates, as well as the corresponding 
interest payments. Amounts greater than the minimum par amount must be 
in multiples of that amount. The minimum par amount required to strip a 
particular security will be provided in the press release announcing the 
auction results.
    (2) Principal components. Principal components stripped from fixed-
principal securities are maintained in accounts, and transferred, at 
their par amount. The principal components have a CUSIP number that is 
different from the CUSIP number of the fully-constituted (unstripped) 
security.
    (3) Interest components. Interest components stripped from fixed-
principal securities are maintained in accounts,

[[Page 353]]

and transferred, at their original payment value, which is derived by 
applying the semiannual interest rate to the par amount. When an 
interest component is created, the interest payment date becomes the 
maturity date for the component. All such components with the same 
maturity date have the same CUSIP number, regardless of the underlying 
security from which the interest payments were stripped. All interest 
components have CUSIP numbers that are different from the CUSIP number 
of any fully-constituted security and any principal component.
    (c) Treasury inflation-indexed securities--(1) Minimum par amounts 
required for STRIPS. The minimum par amount of an inflation-indexed 
security that may be stripped into the components described in paragraph 
(a) of this section is $1,000. Any par amount to be stripped above 
$1,000 must be in a multiple of $1,000.
    (2) Principal components. Principal components stripped from 
inflation-indexed securities are maintained in accounts, and 
transferred, at their par amount. At maturity, the holder will receive 
the inflation-adjusted principal value or the par amount, whichever is 
greater. (See Sec. 356.30.) The principal components have a CUSIP number 
that is different from the CUSIP number of the fully-constituted 
(unstripped) security.
    (3) Interest components. Interest components stripped from 
inflation-indexed securities are maintained in accounts, and 
transferred, at their adjusted value, which is derived by multiplying 
the semiannual interest rate by the par amount and then multiplying this 
value by 100 divided by the Reference CPI of the original issue date (or 
dated date, when the dated date is different from the original issue 
date). See Appendix B, Section IV to this part, for an example of how to 
calculate an adjusted value. The payment value of any interest component 
created prior to March 31, 1999, will be converted to its adjusted 
value. When an interest component is created, the interest payment date 
becomes the maturity date for the component. All such components with 
the same maturity date have the same CUSIP number, regardless of the 
underlying security from which the interest payments were stripped. The 
CUSIP number of any interest component created prior to March 31, 1999, 
will be converted to the fungible CUSIP number for the same maturity 
date. All interest components have CUSIP numbers that are different from 
the CUSIP number of any fully-constituted security and any principal 
component. At maturity, the payment to the holder will be derived by 
multiplying the adjusted value of the interest component by the 
Reference CPI of the maturity date, divided by 100. See Appendix B, 
Section IV to this part, for an example of how to calculate an actual 
payment amount from an adjusted value.
    (4) Rebasing of the CPI. In the event that the CPI is rebased, the 
adjusted values of all outstanding inflation-indexed interest components 
will be converted to adjusted values based on the new base reference 
period. At such time, Treasury will publish information specifying the 
manner in which this conversion will be accomplished. Subsequent to 
rebasing, any TINTS created from a security that was issued during a 
prior base reference period will be issued with adjusted values 
calculated using reference CPIs under the most-recent base reference 
period.
    (d) Reconstituting a security. Stripped interest and principal 
components may be reconstituted, i.e., restored to their fully-
constituted form. A principal component and all related unmatured 
interest components, in the appropriate minimum or multiple amounts or 
adjusted values, must be submitted together for reconstitution. Interest 
components stripped from inflation-indexed securities are different from 
interest components stripped from fixed-principal securities and, 
accordingly, are not interchangeable for reconstitution purposes.
    (e) Applicable regulations. Unless otherwise provided in this part, 
notes and bonds stripped into their STRIPS components are governed by 
subparts A, B, and D of part 357 of this chapter.
[63 FR 35783, June 30, 1998]

    Effective Date Note: At 63 FR 35783, June 30, 1998, Sec. 356.31 was 
revised, effective Mar. 31, 1999. For the convenience of the user, the 
superseded text is set forth as follows:

[[Page 354]]

Sec. 356.31  STRIPS.

    (a) General. A note or bond may be designated in the offering 
announcement as eligible for the STRIPS program. At the option of the 
holder, and generally at any time from its issue date until its call or 
maturity, any such security may be ``stripped,'' i.e., divided into 
separate principal and interest components. A short or long first 
interest payment and all interest payments within a callable period are 
not eligible to be stripped from the principal component. The CUSIP 
numbers and payment dates for the principal and interest components are 
provided in the offering announcement if not previously announced.
    (b) Minimum par amounts required for STRIPS. For a note or bond to 
be stripped into the components described above, the par amount of the 
note or bond must be in an amount that, based on its interest rate, 
would produce a semiannual interest payment, before adjustment for 
inflation, in a multiple of $1,000. Exhibit C to this part provides the 
minimum par amounts required to strip a note or bond at various interest 
rates, as well as the corresponding interest payments. Amounts greater 
than the minimum par amount must be in multiples of that amount. The 
minimum par amount required to strip a particular security will be 
provided in the press release announcing the auction results.
    (c) Principal components stripped from fixed-principal securities. 
Principal components stripped from fixed-principal securities are 
maintained in accounts, and transferred, in TRADES at their par amount. 
The principal components have a CUSIP number that is different from the 
CUSIP number of the fully-constituted (unstripped) security.
    (d) Interest components stripped from fixed-principal securities. 
Interest components stripped from fixed-principal securities are 
maintained in accounts, and transferred, in TRADES at their original 
payment value, which is derived by applying the semiannual interest rate 
to the par amount. When an interest component is created, the interest 
payment date becomes the maturity date for the component. All such 
components with the same maturity date have the same CUSIP number, 
regardless of the underlying security from which the interest payments 
were stripped. All interest components have CUSIP numbers that are 
different from the CUSIP number of any fully-constituted security and 
any principal component.
    (e) Principal components stripped from inflation-indexed securities. 
Principal components stripped from inflation-indexed securities are 
maintained in accounts, and transferred, in TRADES at their par amount. 
At maturity, the holder will receive the inflation-adjusted principal 
value or the par amount, whichever is greater. (See Sec. 356.30.) 
Principal components have a CUSIP number that is different from the 
CUSIP number of the fully-constituted security.
    (f) Interest components stripped from inflation-indexed securities. 
Interest components stripped from inflation-indexed securities are 
maintained in accounts, and transferred, in TRADES at their original 
payment value, which is derived by applying the semiannual interest rate 
to the par amount. When an interest component is created, the interest 
payment date becomes the maturity date for the component. Each such 
component has a unique CUSIP number that is different from the CUSIP 
number of any interest components stripped from different securities, 
even if the components have the same maturity date. All interest 
components have CUSIP numbers that are different from the CUSIP number 
of any fully-constituted security and any principal component. At 
maturity, the payment to the holder will be derived by applying the 
semiannual interest rate to the inflation-adjusted principal of the 
underlying security.
    (g) Reconstituting a security. Stripped interest and principal 
components may be reconstituted, i.e. restored to their fully 
constituted form, and maintained in TRADES. A principal component and 
all related unmatured interest components, in the appropriate minimum or 
multiple amounts, must be submitted together for reconstitution. 
Interest components stripped from inflation-indexed securities are 
different from interest components stripped from fixed-principal 
securities and, accordingly, are not interchangeable for reconstitution 
purposes. Interest components stripped from one inflation-indexed 
security are not interchangeable for reconstitution purposes with 
interest components stripped from another inflation-indexed security.
    (h) Applicable regulations. Unless otherwise provided in this part, 
notes and bonds stripped into their STRIPS components are governed by 
subparts A, B and D of part 357 of this title.
[58 FR 414, Jan. 5, 1993, as amended at 61 FR 43637, Aug. 23, 1996; 62 
FR 852, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.32  Taxation.

    (a) General. Securities issued under this part are subject to all 
applicable taxes imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or 
successor. Under section 3124 of title 31, United States Code, the 
securities are exempt from taxation by a State or political subdivision 
of a State, except for State estate or inheritance taxes and other 
exceptions as provided in that section.
    (b) Treasury inflation-indexed securities. Special federal income 
tax rules for inflation-indexed securities, and

[[Page 355]]

principal and interest components stripped from such securities, are set 
forth in Internal Revenue Service regulations.
[62 FR 853, Jan. 6, 1997]



Sec. 356.33  Reservation of rights.

    The Secretary reserves the right to accept or reject or refuse to 
recognize any or all bids or tenders submitted under this part. The 
Secretary also reserves the right to award more or less securities than 
the amount of securities specified in the offering announcement. The 
Secretary further reserves the right to waive any provision or 
provisions of this part for any or all bidders or submitters. Decisions 
of the Secretary under this section shall be final.



Sec. 356.34  Remedies.

    (a) General. When a person or an entity fails to comply with the 
requirements of this part, the Secretary will consider the circumstances 
of such failure and determine an appropriate remedy. Such remedy may 
include prohibiting the person or entity from participating in future 
auctions for its own account, for the account of others, or both. The 
Secretary may refer such occurrences to the appropriate regulatory 
agency for enforcement action.
    (b) Liquidated damages. A bidder agrees to pay liquidated damages of 
1% of the par amount of securities awarded the bidder in an auction if 
the bidder fails to pay for the awarded securities in a timely manner. 
The Secretary may waive, in whole or in part, the payment of liquidated 
damages. This liquidated damages provision shall not preclude the use of 
any other available remedy.



Sec. 356.35  Reservations as to terms of offerings.

               Appendix A to Part 356--Bidder Definitions

    For the purpose of this part, the definitions set forth in this 
appendix describe all of the categories of bidders eligible to bid in 
Treasury auctions. These definitions are to be used by persons and 
entities in determining whether they are considered one bidder or more 
than one bidder for the purpose of bidding in auctions and for the 
purpose of complying with the requirements of this part. Notwithstanding 
these definitions, any persons or entities that intentionally act 
together with respect to bidding in a Treasury auction are considered, 
collectively, to be one bidder.
    The following definitions will be used by the Department in applying 
competitive and noncompetitive award limitations and related 
requirements, as described in this part.
    (a) Corporation--A corporation and all affiliates, whether persons, 
partnerships, or other entities, hereinafter referred to as a corporate 
structure, are considered, collectively, to be one bidder.
    An affiliate is any: entity that is more than 50% owned, directly or 
indirectly, by the corporation; entity that is more than 50% owned, 
directly or indirectly, by any other affiliate of the corporation; 
person or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the 
corporation; person or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, more 
than 50% of any other affiliate of the corporation; or entity, a 
majority of whose board of directors or a majority of whose general 
partners are directors or officers of the corporation or of any 
affiliate of the corporation.
    For the purpose of this part, a business trust, such as a 
Massachusetts business trust or a Delaware business trust, is considered 
to be a corporation.
    Under certain circumstances, one or more major organizational 
components (e.g., the parent or a subsidiary) in a corporate structure, 
either separately or together with one or more other organizational 
components in the corporate structure, may be recognized as a bidder 
separate from the larger corporate structure. All of the following 
criteria must be met for such component or components to qualify for 
recognition as a separate bidder:

[[Page 356]]

    (1) Such component or components must be prohibited by law or 
regulation from exchanging, or must have established written internal 
procedures (i.e., Chinese walls) designed to prevent the exchange of, 
information related to bidding in Treasury auctions with any other 
component in the corporate structure;
    (2) Such component or components must not be created for the purpose 
of circumventing the Department's bidding and award limitations;
    (3) Decisions related to purchasing Treasury securities at auction 
and participation in specific auctions must be made by employees of such 
component or components. Employees of such component or components that 
make decisions to purchase or dispose of Treasury securities must not 
perform the same function for other components within the corporate 
structure; and
    (4) The records of such component or components related to the 
bidding for, acquisition of, and disposition of Treasury securities must 
be maintained by such component or components. Those records must be 
identifiable--separate and apart from similar records for other 
components within the corporate structure.
    To obtain recognition as a separate bidder, each component or group 
of components must request such recognition from the Department, provide 
a description of the component or group and its position within the 
corporate structure, and provide the following certification:

    [Name of the bidder] hereby certifies that to the best of its 
knowledge and belief it meets the criteria for a separate bidder as 
described in appendix A to 31 CFR part 356. The above-named bidder also 
certifies that it has established written policies or procedures, 
including ongoing compliance monitoring processes, that are designed to 
prevent the component or group of components from:
    (1) Exchanging any of the following information with any other part 
of the corporate structure: (a) Yields or rates at which it plans to 
bid; (b) amounts of securities for which it plans to bid; (c) positions 
that it holds or plans to acquire in a security being auctioned; and (d) 
investment strategies that it plans to follow regarding the security 
being auctioned, or
    (2) In any way intentionally acting together with any other part of 
the corporate structure with respect to formulating or entering bids in 
a Treasury auction.
    The above-named bidder agrees that it will promptly notify the 
Department in writing when any of the information provided to obtain 
separate bidder status changes or when this certification is no longer 
valid.

    (b) Partnership--A partnership for which the Internal Revenue 
Service has assigned a tax-identification number; general partners 
acting on behalf of the partnership; and all affiliates, whether 
persons, corporations, or other entities; hereinafter referred to as a 
partnership structure, are considered, collectively, to be one bidder. A 
partnership structure that contains one or more corporations is 
considered one bidder under either this ``partnership'' category or the 
``corporation'' category, but not both.
    An affiliate is any: Entity that is more than 50% owned, directly or 
indirectly, by the partnership; entity that is more than 50% owned, 
directly or indirectly, by any other affiliate of the partnership; 
person or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the 
partnership; person or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, more 
than 50% of any other affiliate of the partnership; or entity, a 
majority of whose general partners or a majority of whose board of 
directors are general partners or directors of the partnership or of any 
affiliate of the partnership.
    Under certain circumstances, one or more major organizational 
components (e.g., the partnership or a subsidiary) in a partnership 
structure, either separately or together with one or more other 
organizational components in the partnership structure, may be 
recognized as a bidder separate from the larger partnership structure. 
All of the following criteria must be met for such component or 
components to qualify for recognition as a separate bidder:
    (1) Such component or components must be prohibited by law or 
regulation from exchanging, or must have established written internal 
procedures (i.e., Chinese walls) designed to prevent the exchange of, 
information related to bidding in Treasury auctions with any other 
component in the partnership structure;
    (2) Such component or components must not be created for the purpose 
of circumventing the Department's bidding and award limitations;
    (3) Decisions related to purchasing Treasury securities at auction 
and participation in specific auctions must be made by employees of such 
component or components. Employees of such component or components that 
make decisions to purchase or dispose of Treasury securities must not 
perform the same function for other components within the partnership 
structure; and
    (4) The records of such component or components related to the 
bidding for, acquisition of, and disposition of Treasury securities must 
be maintained by such component or components. Those records must be 
identifiable--separate and apart from similar records for other 
components within the partnership structure.
    To obtain recognition as a separate bidder, each component or group 
of components

[[Page 357]]

must request such recognition from the Department, provide a description 
of the component or group and its position within the partnership 
structure, and provide the following certification:

    [Name of the bidder] hereby certifies that to the best of its 
knowledge and belief it meets the criteria for a separate bidder as 
described in appendix A to 31 CFR part 356. The above-named bidder also 
certifies that it has established written policies or procedures, 
including ongoing compliance monitoring processes, that are designed to 
prevent the component or group of components from:
    (1) Exchanging any of the following information with any other part 
of the partnership structure: (a) Yields or rates at which it plans to 
bid; (b) amounts of securities for which it plans to bid; (c) positions 
that it holds or plans to acquire in a security being auctioned; and (d) 
investment strategies that it plans to follow regarding the security 
being auctioned, or
    (2) In any way intentionally acting together with any other part of 
the partnership structure with respect to formulating or entering bids 
in a Treasury auction.
    The above-named bidder agrees that it will promptly notify the 
Department in writing when any of the information provided to obtain 
separate bidder status changes or when this certification is no longer 
valid.

    (c) Government-related entity--(1) The government of each of the 50 
states and of the District of Columbia is considered to be one bidder.
    (2) A unit of local government, including any county, city, 
municipality, or township, or other unit of general government, as 
defined by the Bureau of the Census for statistical purposes, is 
considered to be one bidder.
    (3) The government of a commonwealth, territory, or possession of 
the United States is considered to be one bidder.
    (4) A governmental entity, body, or corporation established under 
Federal, State, or local law is considered to be one bidder.
    (5) A foreign central bank, the government of a foreign state, or an 
international organization in which the United States holds membership 
is considered to be one bidder.
    An investment, reserve, or other fund of one of the above 
government-related entities, not otherwise meeting the definition of the 
``trust or other fiduciary estate'' category, is considered part of that 
entity and not a separate bidder unless applicable law requires that the 
investments of such fund be made separately.
    (d) Trust or other fiduciary estate-- A legal entity created under a 
valid trust instrument, court order, or other legal authority that 
designates a trustee or fiduciary to act for the benefit of a named 
beneficiary may be considered a bidder. To be considered a bidder, such 
legal entity must be able to be identified by the name or title of the 
trustee or fiduciary; specific reference to the trust instrument, court 
order, or legal authority under which the trustee or fiduciary is 
acting; and the unique IRS-assigned employer identification number (not 
social security number) for the entity. Further, it must be the trustee 
or fiduciary who makes the decisions related to participation in 
auctions on behalf of the trust or fiduciary estate.
    (e) Individual-- A person, whether acting in his or her individual 
capacity, as a sole proprietor, for any entity not otherwise defined as 
a bidder, or in more than one such capacity, is considered to be one 
bidder. When a person meets the definition of an affiliate within a 
corporate or partnership structure as defined above, such person may 
only be considered a bidder in this ``individual'' category when the 
bidder of which they are a part is not bidding in the same auction. A 
person acting in an official capacity as an employee or other 
representative of a bidder defined in any other category is not 
considered an ``individual'' bidder when acting in such capacity. A 
person, his or her spouse, and any children under the age of 21 having a 
common household are considered, collectively, to be one ``individual'' 
bidder.
    (f) Other bidder-- A bidder defined by any of the above categories 
is not considered a bidder in this category. A bidder not defined by any 
of the above categories may possibly be considered a bidder in this 
category. For purposes of this definition, ``other bidder'' means an 
institution or organization with a unique IRS-assigned employer 
identification number. This definition of other bidder includes such 
entities as an association, church, university, union, or club. This 
category does not include any person or entity acting in a fiduciary or 
investment management capacity, a sole proprietorship, an investment 
account, an investment fund, a form of registration, or investment 
ownership designation.
    Notwithstanding the definitions in this appendix, it is the intent 
of the Department that no auction participant receive a larger auction 
award by acquiring securities through others than it could have received 
had it been considered a bidder under these definitions.

    The numbers in this appendix are examples given for illustrative 
purposes only and are in no way a prediction of interest rates on any 
bills, notes, or bonds issued under this part.
    In some of the following examples, intermediate rounding is used to 
allow the reader to follow the calculations. In actual practice, the 
Department generally does not round prior to determining the final 
result.

         I. Computation of Interest on Treasury Bonds and Notes

                 A. Treasury Fixed-Principal Securities

                   1. Regular Half-Year Payment Period

    Interest on marketable fixed-principal securities is payable on a 
semiannual basis. The regular interest payment period is a full half-
year of six calendar months. Examples of half-year periods are: (1) 
February 15 to August 15, (2) May 31 to November 30, and (3) February 29 
to August 31 (in a leap year). Calculation of an interest payment for a 
fixed-principal security with a par amount of $1,000 and an interest 
rate of 8% is made in this manner:
    ($1,000  x  .08)/2 = $40. Specifically, a semiannual interest 
payment represents one-half of one year's interest, and is computed on 
this basis regardless of the actual number of days in the half-year.

                        2. Daily Interest Decimal

    In cases where an interest payment period for a fixed-principal 
security is shorter or longer than six months or where accrued interest 
is payable by an investor, a daily interest decimal, based on the actual 
number of days in the half-year or half-years involved, must be 
computed. The number of days in any half-year period is shown in Table 
1.

                      3. Short First Payment Period

    In cases where the first interest payment period for a fixed-
principal security covers less than a full half-year period (a ``short 
coupon''), the daily interest decimal is multiplied by the number of 
days from, but not including, the issue date to, and including, the 
first interest payment date, resulting in the amount of the interest 
payable per $1,000 par amount. In cases where the par amount of 
securities is greater than $1,000, the appropriate multiple should be 
multiplied by the unrounded interest payment amount for $1,000 par 
amount.

    Example. A 2-year fixed-principal note paying 8\3/8\% interest was 
issued on July 2, 1990, with the first interest payment on December 31, 
1990. The number of days in the full half-year period of June 30 to 
December 31, 1990, was 184 (see Table 1). The number of days for which 
interest actually accrued was 182 (not including July 2, but including 
December 31). The daily interest decimal, $0.227581522 (see Table 2, 
line for 8\3/8\%, under the column for half-year of 184 days), was 
multiplied by 182, resulting in a payment of $41.419837004 per $1,000. 
Because the note was issued in a minimum denomination of $5,000, 
$41.419837004 was multiplied by 5, resulting in a payment of 
$207.099185020, or $207.10, for a $5,000 note. For $20,000 of these 
notes, $41.419837004 would be multiplied by 20, resulting in a payment 
of $828.39674008 ($828.40).

                      4. Long First Payment Period

    In cases where the first interest payment period for a fixed-
principal security covers more than a full half-year period (a ``long 
coupon''), the daily interest decimal is multiplied by the number of 
days from, but not including, the issue date to, and including, the last 
day of the fractional period that ends one full half-year before the 
interest payment date. That amount is added to the regular interest 
amount for the full half-year ending on the first interest payment date, 
resulting in the amount of interest payable for $1,000 par amount. In 
cases where the par amount of securities is greater than $1,000, the 
appropriate multiple should be applied to the unrounded interest payment 
amount for $1,000 par amount.

    Example. A 5-year 2-month fixed-principal note paying 7\7/8\% 
interest was issued on December 3, 1990, with the first interest payment 
due on August 15, 1991. Interest for the regular half-year portion of 
the payment was computed to be $39.375 per $1,000 par amount. The 
fractional portion of the payment, from December 3 to February 15, fell 
in a 184-day half-year (August 15, 1990, to February 15, 1991). 
Accordingly, the daily interest decimal for 7\7/8\% was $0.213994565. 
This decimal, multiplied by 74 (the number of days from but not 
including December 3, 1990, to and including February 15), resulted in 
interest for the fractional portion of $15.835597810. When added to 
$39.375 (the normal interest payment portion ending on August 15, 1991), 
this produced a first interest payment of $55.210597810, or $55.21 per 
$1,000 par amount. For $7,000 par amount of these notes, $55.210597810 
would be multiplied by 7, resulting in an interest payment of 
$386.474184670 ($386.47).

                B. Treasury Inflation-Indexed Securities

                           1. Indexing Process

    Interest on marketable Treasury inflation-indexed securities is 
payable on a semiannual basis. The inflation-indexed securities are 
issued with a stated rate of interest which remains constant for the 
term of the particular security. Interest payments are based on the 
security's inflation-adjusted principal at the time interest is paid. 
This adjustment is made by multiplying the par amount of the security by 
the applicable Index Ratio.

[[Page 362]]

                             2. Index Ratio

    The numerator of the Index Ratio, the Ref CPIDate, is the 
index number applicable for a specific day, and the denominator of the 
Index Ratio is the Ref CPI applicable for the original issue date. 
However, when the dated date is different from the original issue date, 
the denominator is the Ref CPI applicable for the dated date. The 
formula for calculating the Index Ratio is:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.000

                            3. Reference CPI

    The Ref CPI for the first day of any calendar month is the CPI for 
the third preceding calendar month. For example, the Ref CPI applicable 
to April 1 in any year is the CPI for January, which is reported in 
February. The Ref CPI for any other day of a month is determined by a 
linear interpolation between the Ref CPI applicable to the first day of 
the month in which such day falls (in the example, January) and the Ref 
CPI applicable to the first day of the next month (in the example, 
February). For purposes of interpolation, calculations with regard to 
the Ref CPI and the Index Ratio for a specific date will be truncated to 
six decimal places and rounded to five decimal places such that the Ref 
CPI and the Index Ratio for that date will be expressed to five decimal 
places. The formula for the Ref CPI for a specific date is:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.001

Where Date = valuation date
D = the number of days in the month in which Date falls
t = the calendar day corresponding to Date
CPIM = CPI reported for the calendar month M by the Bureau of 
          Labor Statistics
Ref CPIM = Ref CPI for the first day of the calendar month in 
which Date falls, e.g., Ref CPIApril 1 is the 
CPIJanuary
Ref CPIM+ 1 = Ref CPI for the first day of the calendar month 
          immediately following Date

    For example, the Ref CPI for April 15, 1996 is calculated as 
follows:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.002

where D = 30, t = 15
Ref CPIApril 1, 1996 =  154.40, the non-seasonally adjusted 
          CPI-U for January 1996.
Ref CPIMay 1, 1996 = 154.90, the non-seasonally adjusted CPI-
          U for February 1996.
    Putting these values in the equation above:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.003
    
    This value truncated to six decimals is 154.633333; rounded to five 
decimals it is 154.63333.
    To calculate the Index Ratio for April 16, 1996, for an inflation-
indexed security issued on April 15, 1996, the Ref 
CPIApril 16, 1996 must first be calculated. Using the same 
values in the equation above except that t=16, the Ref 
CPIApril 16, 1996 is 154.65000.
    The Index Ratio for April 16, 1996 is:

Index RatioApril 16, 1996 = 154.65000/154.63333 = 
          1.000107803.
    This value truncated to six decimals is 1.000107; rounded to five 
decimals it is 1.00011.

                         4. Index Contingencies

    If a previously reported CPI is revised, Treasury will continue to 
use the previously

[[Page 363]]

reported CPI in calculating the principal value and interest payments.
    If the CPI is rebased to a different year, Treasury will continue to 
use the CPI based on the base reference period in effect when the 
security was first issued, as long as that CPI continues to be 
published.
    If, while an inflation-indexed security is outstanding, the 
applicable CPI is: (1) discontinued, (2) in the judgment of the 
Secretary, fundamentally altered in a manner materially adverse to the 
interests of an investor in the security, or (3) in the judgment of the 
Secretary, altered by legislation or Executive Order in a manner 
materially adverse to the interests of an investor in the security, 
Treasury, after consulting with the Bureau of Labor Statistics, or any 
successor agency, will substitute an appropriate alternative index. 
Treasury will then notify the public of the substitute index and how it 
will be applied. Determinations of the Secretary in this regard will be 
final.
    If the CPI for a particular month is not reported by the last day of 
the following month, the Treasury will announce an index number based on 
the last twelve-month change in the CPI available. Any calculations of 
the Treasury's payment obligations on the inflation-indexed security 
that rely on that month's CPI will be based on the index number that the 
Treasury has announced. For example, if the CPI for month M is not 
reported timely, the formula for calculating the index number to be used 
is:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.004

    Generalizing for the last reported CPI issued N months prior to 
month M:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC06JA91.005

    If it is necessary to use these formulas to calculate an index 
number, it will be used for all subsequent calculations that rely on 
that month's index number and will not be replaced by the actual CPI 
when it is reported, except for use in the above formulas. When it 
becomes necessary to use the above formulas to derive an index number, 
the last CPI that has been reported will be used to calculate CPI 
numbers for months for which the CPI has not been reported timely.

    5. Computation of Interest for a Regular Half-Year Payment Period

    Interest on marketable Treasury inflation-indexed securities is 
payable on a semiannual basis. The regular interest payment period is a 
full half-year or six calendar months. Examples of half-year periods are 
January 15 to July 15, and April 15 to October 15. An interest payment 
will be a fixed percentage of the value of the inflation-adjusted 
principal, in current dollars, for the date on which it is paid. 
Interest payments will be calculated by multiplying one-half of the 
specified annual interest rate for the inflation-indexed securities by 
the inflation-adjusted principal for the interest payment date. 
Specifically, a semiannual interest payment is computed on the basis of 
one-half of one year's interest regardless of the actual number of days 
in the half-year.

    Example. A 10-year inflation-indexed note paying 3% interest was 
issued on July 15, 1996, with the first interest payment on January 15, 
1997. The Ref CPI on July 15, 1996 (Ref CPIIssue Date) was 
120, and the Ref CPI on January 15, 1997 (Ref CPIDate) was 
132. For a par amount of $100,000, the inflation-adjusted principal on 
January 15, 1997, was (132/120)  x  $100,000, or $110,000. This amount 
was then multiplied by .03/2, or .015, resulting in a payment of 
$1,650.00.

                           C. Accrued Interest

    Accrued interest will be payable by the purchaser of a Treasury bond 
or note when interest accrues prior to the issue date of the security. 
Because the purchaser receives a full interest payment despite having 
held the security for only a portion of the interest payment period, the 
Department is compensated through the payment of accrued interest at 
settlement.
    For a fixed-principal security, if accrued interest covers a 
fractional portion of a full half-year period, the number of days in the 
full half-year period and the stated interest rate will determine the 
daily interest decimal to be used in computing the accrued interest. The 
decimal is multiplied by the number of days for which interest has 
accrued. If a reopened fixed-principal security has a long first 
interest payment period (a ``long coupon''), and the dated date for the 
reopened issue is less than six full months before the first interest 
payment, the accrued interest will fall into two separate half-year 
periods, and a separate daily interest decimal must be multiplied by the 
respective number of days in each half-year period during which interest 
has accrued. All accrued interest computations are rounded to five 
decimal places for a $1,000 inflation-adjusted principal, using normal 
rounding procedures. Accrued interest for a par amount of securities 
greater than $1,000 is calculated by applying the appropriate multiple 
to accrued interest payable for $1,000 par amount, rounded to five 
decimal places.
    For an inflation-indexed security, accrued interest will be 
calculated as shown in section III, paragraphs A and B of this appendix.


[[Page 364]]


    Examples. (1) Fixed-Principal Securities--(i) Involving One Half-
Year: A bond paying interest at a rate of 8\3/4\%, originally issued on 
August 15, 1990, as a 30-year bond with a first interest payment date of 
February 15, 1991, was reopened as a 29-year 9-month bond on November 
15, 1990. Interest had accrued for 92 days, from August 15 to November 
15. The regular interest period from August 15 to February 15, 1991, 
covered 184 days. Accordingly, the daily interest decimal, $0.237771739, 
multiplied by 92, resulted in accrued interest payable of $21.874999988, 
or $21.87500, for each $1,000 bond purchased. If the bonds have a par 
amount of $150,000, then 150 is multiplied by $21.87500, resulting in an 
amount payable of $3,281.25.
    (ii) Involving Two Half-Years: A 10\3/4\% bond, originally issued on 
July 2, 1985, as a 20-year 1-month bond, with a first interest payment 
date of February 15, 1986, was reopened as a 19-year 10-month bond on 
November 4, 1985. Interest had accrued for 44 days, from July 2 to 
August 15, 1985, during a 181-day half-year (February 15 to August 15); 
and for 81 days, from August 15 to November 4, during a 184-day half-
year (August 15, 1985, to February 15, 1986). Accordingly, $0.296961326 
was multiplied by 44, and $0.292119565 was multiplied by 81, resulting 
in products of $13.066298344 and $23.661684765 which, added together, 
resulted in accrued interest payable of $36.727983109, or $36.72798, for 
each $1,000 bond purchased. If the bonds have a par amount of $11,000, 
then 11 is multiplied by $36.72798, resulting in an amount payable of 
$404.00778 ($404.01).

   II. Formulas for Conversion of Fixed-Principal Security Yields to

                               Definitions

P=price per 100 (dollars), rounded to three places, using normal 
          rounding procedures
C=the regular annual interest per $100, payable semiannually, e.g.,

i=nominal annual rate of return or yield to maturity, based on 
          semiannual interest payments and expressed in decimals, e.g., 
          .0719
n=number of full semiannual periods from the issue date to maturity, 
          except that, if the issue date is a coupon frequency date, n 
          will be one less than the number of full semiannual periods 
          remaining to maturity. Coupon frequency dates are the two 
          semiannual dates based on the maturity date of each note or 
          bond issue. For example, a security maturing on November 15, 
          1995, would have coupon frequency dates of May 15 and November 
          15.
r=(1) number of days from the issue date to the first interest payment 
          (regular or short first payment period), or (2) number of days

s=(1) number of days in the full semiannual period ending on the first 
          interest payment date (regular or short first payment period), 
          or (2) number of days in the full semiannual period in which 
          the fractional portion of a long first payment period falls, 
          ending at the onset of the regular portion of the first 
          interest payment

  IV. Computation of Adjusted Values and Payment Amounts for Stripped 
                  Inflation-Indexed Interest Components

    Note:  Valuing an interest component stripped from an inflation-
indexed security at its adjusted value enables this interest component 
to be interchangeable (fungible) with other interest components that 
have the same maturity date, regardless of the underlying inflation-
indexed security from which the interest components were stripped. The 
adjusted value provides for fungibility of these various interest 
components when buying, selling, or transferring them, or when 
reconstituting an inflation-indexed security.

Ref CPIIssue Date=reference CPI for the original issue date 
          (or dated date, when the dated date is different from the

Ref CPIDate=reference CPI for the maturity date of the 
          interest component

PA=AV (Ref CPIDate/100) (rounded to 2 decimals with no 
          intermediate rounding)
    Example. A 10-year inflation-indexed note paying 3\1/2\% interest is 
issued on January 15, 1999, with the second interest payment on January 
15, 2000. The Ref CPI on January 15, 1999 (Ref CPIIssue Date) 
is 174.62783, and the Ref CPI on January 15, 2000 (Ref 
CPIDate) is 179.86159. Calculate the adjusted value and the 
payment amount at maturity of the interest component.

rounding).

  V. Computation of Purchase Price, Discount Rate, and Investment Rate 
              (Coupon-Equivalent Yield) for Treasury Bills

    A. Conversion of the discount rate to a purchase price for Treasury 
bills of all maturities:
Formula:
P=100 [(1-dr)/360]

Where:

d=discount rate, in decimals
r=number of days remaining to maturity
P=price per 100 (dollars)

Example:

    For a bill issued November 24, 1989, due February 22, 1990, at a 
discount rate of 7.61%, solve for price per 100 (P).

Definitions:

d=.0761
r=90 (November 24, 1989 to February 22, 1990)

Resolution:

P=100 (1-dr/360)
(1) P=100 [1-(.0761)(90)/360]
(2) P=100 (1-.019025)
(3) P=100 (.980975)
(4) P=98.0975
(5) P=98.098

    Note: Purchase prices per $100 are rounded to three decimal places, 
using normal rounding procedures.

    B. Computation of purchase prices and discount amounts based on 
price per $100, for Treasury bills of all maturities:
    1. To determine the purchase price of any bill, divide the par 
amount by 100 and multiply the resulting quotient by the price per $100.

    Example. To compute the purchase price of a $10,000 13-week bill 
sold at a price of $98.098 per $100, divide the par amount ($10,000) by 
100 to obtain the multiple (100). That multiple times 98.098 results in 
a purchase price of $9,809.80.

    2. To determine the discount amount for any bill, subtract the 
purchase price from the par amount of the bill.

    Example. For a $10,000 bill with a purchase price of $9,809.80, the 
discount amount would be $190.20, or $10,000-$9,809.80.
    C. Conversion of prices to discount rates for Treasury bills of all 
maturities:

Formula:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.009

Where:

P=price per 100 (dollars)

[[Page 370]]

d=discount rate
r=number of days remaining to maturity

Example:

For a 26-week bill issued December 30, 1982, due June 30, 1983, with a 
price of $95.930, solve for the discount rate (d).

Definitions:

P=95.930
r=182 (December 30, 1982, to June 30, 1983)

Resolution:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.010

(2) d=[.0407 x 1.978022]
(3) d=.080506
(4) d=8.051%

    Note:  Prior to April 18, 1983, all bills were sold in price-basis 
auctions, in which discount rates calculated from prices were rounded to 
three places, using normal rounding procedures. Since that time, all 
bills have been sold only on a discount rate basis. For regular Treasury 
bills--13-, 26-, and 52-week bills--discount rates bid were submitted 
with two decimals in increments of .01 percent, e.g., 5.32, until 1997, 
when Treasury instituted a change to three decimal bidding in increments 
of .005 percent, e.g., 5.320 or 5.325.

    D. Calculation of investment rate (coupon-equivalent yield) for 
Treasury bills:
    1. For bills of not more than one half-year to maturity:

Formula:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.011

Where:

i=investment rate, in decimals
P=price per 100 (dollars)
r=number of days remaining to maturity
y=number of days in year following the issue date; normally 365 but, if 
          the year following the issue date includes February 29, then y 
          is 366.

Example:

For a cash management bill issued June 1, 1990, due June 21, 1990, with 
a price of $99.559 (computed from a discount rate of 7.93%), solve for 
the investment rate (i).

Definitions:

P=99.559
r=20 (June 1, 1990, to June 21, 1990)
y=365

Resolution:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.012

(2) i=[.004430 x 18.25]
(3) i=.080848
(4) i=8.08%

    2. For bills of more than one half-year to maturity:

Formula: P[1+(r-y/2)(i/y)](1+i/2) = 100

This formula must be solved by using the quadratic equation, which is:

ax2+bx+c=0

Therefore, rewriting the bill formula in the quadratic equation form 
gives:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.013

and solving for ``i'' produces:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC03NO91.014

Where:

i=investment rate in decimals
b=r/y
a=(r/2y)-.25
c=(P-100)/P
P=price per 100 (dollars)
r=number of days remaining to maturity
y=number of days in year following the issue date; normally 365, but if 
          the year following the issue date includes February 29, then y 
          is 366.

Example:

For a 52-week bill issued June 7, 1990, due June 6, 1991, with a price 
of $92.265 (computed from a discount rate of 7.65%), solve for the 
investment rate (i).

Definitions:

r=364 (June 7, 1990, to June 6, 1991)
y=365
P=92.265
b=364/365, or .997260
a=(364/730)-.25, or .24863
c=(92.265-100)/92.265, or -.083835

            Appendix C To Part 356--Investment Considerations

                     I. Inflation-Indexed Securities

                  A. Principal and Interest Variability

    An investment in securities with principal or interest determined by 
reference to an inflation index involves factors not associated with an 
investment in a fixed-principal security. Such factors may include, 
without limitation, the possibility that the inflation index may be 
subject to significant changes, that changes in the index may or may not 
correlate to changes in interest rates generally or with changes in 
other indices, that the resulting interest may be greater or less than 
that payable on other securities of similar maturities, and that, in the 
event of sustained deflation, the amount of the semiannual interest 
payments, the inflation-adjusted principal of the security, and the 
value of stripped components, will decrease. However, if at maturity the 
inflation-adjusted principal is less than a security's par amount, an 
additional amount will be paid at maturity so that the additional amount 
plus the inflation-adjusted principal equals the par amount. Regardless 
of whether or not such an additional amount is paid, interest payments 
will always be based on the inflation-adjusted principal as of the 
interest payment date. If a security has been stripped, any such 
additional amount will be paid at maturity to holders of principal 
components only. (See Sec. 356.30.)

                   B. Trading in the Secondary Market

    The Treasury securities market is the largest and most liquid 
securities market in the world. While Treasury expects that there will 
be an active secondary market for inflation-indexed securities, that 
market initially may not be as active or liquid as the secondary market 
for Treasury fixed-principal securities. In addition, as a new product, 
inflation-indexed securities may not be as widely traded or as well 
understood as Treasury fixed-principal securities. Lesser liquidity and 
fewer market participants may result in larger spreads between bid and 
asked prices for inflation-indexed securities than the bid-asked spreads 
for fixed-principal securities with the same time to maturity. Larger 
bid-asked spreads normally result in higher transaction costs and/or 
lower overall returns. The liquidity of an inflation-indexed security 
may be enhanced over time as Treasury issues additional amounts or more 
entities participate in the market.

                          C. Tax Considerations

    Treasury inflation-indexed securities and the stripped interest and 
principal components of these securities are subject to specific tax 
rules provided by Treasury regulations issued under sections 1275(d) and 
1286 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

[[Page 372]]

                           D. Indexing Issues

    While the CPI measures changes in prices for goods and services, 
movements in the CPI that have occurred in the past are not necessarily 
indicative of changes that may occur in the future.
    The calculation of the index ratio incorporates an approximate 
three-month lag, which may have an impact on the trading price of the 
securities, particularly during periods of significant, rapid changes in 
the index.
    The CPI is reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a bureau 
within the Department of Labor. The Bureau of Labor Statistics operates 
independently of the Treasury and, therefore, Treasury has no control 
over the determination, calculation, or publication of the index. For a 
discussion of how the CPI will be applied in various situations, see 
appendix B, section I, paragraph B. In addition, for a discussion of 
actions that Treasury would take in the event the CPI is: discontinued; 
in the judgment of the Secretary, fundamentally altered in a manner 
materially adverse to the interests of an investor in the security; or, 
in the judgment of the Secretary, altered by legislation or Executive 
Order in a manner materially adverse to the interests of an investor in 
the security, see appendix B, section I, paragraph B.4.
[62 FR 873, Jan. 6, 1997]

     Appendix D to Part 356--Description of the Consumer Price Index

    The Consumer Price Index (``CPI'') for purposes of inflation-indexed 
securities is the non-seasonally adjusted U.S. City Average All Items 
Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, published monthly by the 
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor. The CPI is a 
measure of the average change in consumer prices over time in a fixed 
market basket of goods and services, including food, clothing, shelter, 
fuels, transportation, charges for doctors' and dentists' services, and 
drugs.
    In calculating the index, price changes for the various items are 
averaged together with weights that represent their importance in the 
spending of urban households in the United States. The contents of the 
market basket of goods and services and the weights assigned to the 
various items are updated periodically to take into account changes in 
consumer expenditure patterns.
    The CPI is expressed in relative terms in relation to a time base 
reference period for which the level is set at 100. For example, if the 
CPI for the 1982-84 reference period is 100.0, an increase of 16.5 
percent from that period would be shown as 116.5. The CPI for a 
particular month is released and published during the following month. 
From time to time, the CPI is rebased to a more recent base reference 
period. The base reference period for a particular inflation-indexed 
security will be provided on the offering announcement for that 
security.
    Further details about the CPI may be obtained by contacting the 
Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Federal Reserve Bank of ________________
Attention: (Name of Fiscal Officer)
(Address)
(Address)

    To Whom It May Concern:
    I. The depository institution (``DI'') and the submitting entity 
(``Submitter''), as identified below, agree that
    (a) The Submitter is authorized to submit tenders to the Federal 
Reserve Bank of ____________ (``Bank'');
    (b) The Bank is authorized to deliver, as provided herein, Treasury 
securities awarded to the Submitter through the auction process;
    (c) The Bank, or other Federal Reserve Bank identified in Section II 
below, is authorized to charge the DI's funds account for payment of 
awarded securities that are delivered by the Bank hereunder. Such charge 
is to be made at the same time the securities are delivered;
    (d) The Submitter [  ] is, [  ] is not authorized to submit TREASURY 
DIRECT tenders. Where such tenders are authorized, the Bank is 
instructed to deliver awarded securities to the TREASURY DIRECT Book-
Entry System and charge the DI's funds account for the securities 
delivered; and
    (e) The Bank [  ] is, [  ] is not authorized to deliver the awarded 
securities to the DI's securities account at a Federal Reserve Bank 
other than the Bank.

The above authorizations apply to:
    [  ] bills
    [  ] notes
    [  ] bonds
    II. For securities to be delivered to a Federal Reserve Bank other 
than the Bank receiving the tender, the Submitter must complete the 
following:
    Awarded securities are to be delivered hereunder by the Bank to the 
DI's securities account at the Federal Reserve Bank of ____________.
    III. The following wire instructions are to be used by the Bank to 
deliver securities to the DI:
    Wire Instructions: ________________.
    IV. General Provisions.
    This agreement is effective on the date it is received by the Bank, 
although the Bank normally will not act under the agreement until it has 
acknowledged receipt of such.
    The Submitter hereunder is the entity submitting bids to a Bank for 
its own account or for the account of others. The Submitter is 
responsible to the Treasury for full payment of all securities awarded, 
including any securities awarded under customer bids submitted by the 
Submitter.
    Any Federal Reserve Bank identified herein is authorized to act on 
information in any tender in the name of the Submitter that reasonably 
appears to be valid and genuine. The DI, by executing this agreement, 
guarantees the authority and signature of the person signing this 
agreement on behalf of the Submitter.
    This agreement will remain in effect until written notice is 
received by the Bank from either the DI or the Submitter that the 
agreement has been terminated, provided that if securities are scheduled 
to be delivered hereunder, such notice must be received in accordance 
with the termination procedures hereafter described.
    As to termination action by the DI, notice of termination will not 
be effective unless received in writing by a Fiscal/Securities 
Department officer by the later of (i) 5 p.m. (the Bank's time) on the 
business day prior to the issue date of the securities scheduled to be 
delivered hereunder or (ii) if the submitter has authorized the Bank to 
advise the DI of securities to be delivered, two hours after such advice 
is sent by the Bank. Such termination action by the DI shall not affect 
the Submitter's responsibility to make full payment for the securities 
awarded. A DI may, at any time, waive in writing its right to terminate 
hereunder.
    As to termination action by the Submitter after an auction but prior 
to delivery of awarded securities, the written notice of termination 
will not be effective, and this agreement shall remain in full force and 
effect, unless the Submitter has provided to the Bank, and the latter 
has acknowledged, a new autocharge agreement executed by a DI having a 
funds account at a Federal Reserve Bank.
    Written notices to be sent hereunder in connection with the 
termination of this autocharge agreement shall be sent by either the 
Submitter or the DI to the Bank authorized to receive tenders hereunder.
    In the event that this autocharge agreement is terminated, it is the 
sole responsibility of the party terminating the agreement to notify the 
other party hereto.

    (b) A security interest in a Security Entitlement that is in favor 
of Federal Reserve Bank from a Participant and that is not recorded on 
the books of a Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), is 
governed by the law (not including the conflict-of-law rules) of the 
jurisdiction where the head office of the Federal Reserve Bank 
maintaining the Participant's Securities Account is located. A security 
interest in a Security Entitlement that is in favor of a Federal Reserve 
Bank from a Person that is not a Participant, and that is not recorded 
on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), is 
governed by the law determined in the manner specified in Sec. 357.11.
    (c) If the jurisdiction specified in the first sentence of paragraph 
(b) of this section is a State that has not adopted Revised Article 8 
(incorporated by reference, see Sec. 357.2) then the law specified in 
paragraph (b) of this section shall be the law of that State as though 
Revised Article 8 had been adopted by that State.



Sec. 357.11  Law governing other interests.

    (a) To the extent not inconsistent with these regulations, the law 
(not including the conflict-of-law rules) of a Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction governs:
    (1) The acquisition of a Security Entitlement from the Securities 
Intermediary;
    (2) The rights and duties of the Securities Intermediary and 
Entitlement Holder arising out of a Security Entitlement;
    (3) Whether the Securities Intermediary owes any duties to an 
adverse claimant to a Security Entitlement;
    (4) Whether an Adverse Claim can be asserted against a Person who 
acquires a Security Entitlement from the Securities Intermediary or a 
Person who purchases a Security Entitlement or interest therein from an 
Entitlement Holder; and
    (5) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of this section, 
the perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection and priority of a 
security interest in a Security Entitlement.

[[Page 384]]

    (b) The following rules determine a ``Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction'' for purposes of this section:
    (1) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder specifies that it is governed by the law of a 
particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction.
    (2) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify the governing law as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) of this section, but expressly specifies that the 
securities account is maintained at an office in a particular 
jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction.
    (3) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify a jurisdiction as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section, the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which is located the 
office identified in an account statement as the office serving the 
Entitlement Holder's account.
    (4) If an agreement between the Securities Intermediary and its 
Entitlement Holder does not specify a jurisdiction as provided in 
paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section and an account statement does 
not identify an office serving the Entitlement Holder's account as 
provided in paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the Securities 
Intermediary's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which is located the 
chief executive office of the Securities Intermediary.
    (c) Notwithstanding the general rule in paragraph (a)(5) of this 
section, the law (but not the conflict-of-law rules) of the jurisdiction 
in which the Person creating a security interest is located governs 
whether and how the security interest may be perfected automatically or 
by filing a financing statement.
    (d) If the jurisdiction specified in paragraph (b) of this section 
is a State that has not adopted Revised Article 8 (incorporated by 
reference, see Sec. 357.2), then the law for the matters specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section shall be the law of that State as though 
Revised Article 8 had been adopted by that State. For purposes of the 
application of the matters specified in paragraph (a) of this section, 
the Federal Reserve Bank maintaining the Securities Account is a 
clearing corporation, and the Participant's interest in a Book-entry 
Security is a Security Entitlement.



Sec. 357.12  Creation of Participant's Security Entitlement; security interests.

    (a) A Participant's Security Entitlement is created when a Federal 
Reserve Bank indicates by book entry that a Book-entry Security has been 
credited to a Participant's Securities Account.
    (b) A security interest in a Security Entitlement of a Participant 
in favor of the United States to secure deposits of public money, 
including without limitation deposits to the Treasury tax and loan 
accounts, or other security interest in favor of the United States that 
is required by Federal statute, regulation, or agreement, and that is 
marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank is thereby effected and 
perfected, and has priority over any other interest in the securities. 
Where a security interest in favor of the United States in a Security 
Entitlement of a Participant is marked on the books of a Federal Reserve 
Bank, such Reserve Bank may rely, and is protected in relying, 
exclusively on the order of an authorized representative of the United 
States directing the transfer of the security. For purposes of this 
paragraph, an ``authorized representative of the United States'' is the 
official designated in the applicable regulations or agreement to which 
a Federal Reserve Bank is a party, governing the security interest.
    (c) (1) The United States and the Federal Reserve Banks have no 
obligation to agree to act on behalf of any Person or to recognize the 
interest of any transferee of a security interest or other limited 
interest in favor of any Person except to the extent of any specific 
requirement of Federal law or regulation or to the extent set forth in 
any specific agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank on whose books the 
interest of the Participant is recorded. To the extent required by such 
law or regulation or set forth in an agreement with a Federal Reserve 
Bank, or the

[[Page 385]]

Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular, a security interest in a 
Security Entitlement that is in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank or a 
Person may be created and perfected by a Federal Reserve Bank marking 
its books to record the security interest. Except as provided in 
paragraph (b) of this section, a security interest in a Security 
Entitlement marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank shall have 
priority over any other interest in the securities.
    (2) In addition to the method provided in paragraph (c)(1) of this 
section, a security interest, including a security interest in favor of 
a Federal Reserve Bank, may be perfected by any method by which a 
security interest may be perfected under applicable law as described in 
Sec. 357.10(b) or Sec. 357.11. The perfection, effect of perfection or 
non-perfection and priority of a security interest are governed by that 
applicable law. A security interest in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank 
shall be treated as a security interest in favor of a clearing 
corporation in all respects under that law, including with respect to 
the effect of perfection and priority of the security interest. A 
Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular shall be treated as a rule 
adopted by a clearing corporation for such purposes.



Sec. 357.13  Obligations of the United States; no Adverse Claims.

    (a) Except in the case of a security interest in favor of the United 
States or a Federal Reserve Bank or otherwise as provided in 
Sec. 357.12(c)(1), for the purposes of this subpart B, the United States 
and the Federal Reserve Banks shall treat the Participant to whose 
Securities Account an interest in a Book-entry Security has been 
credited as the person exclusively entitled to issue a Transfer Message, 
to receive interest and other payments with respect thereof and 
otherwise to exercise all the rights and powers with respect to the 
Security, notwithstanding any information or notice to the contrary. 
Neither the Federal Reserve Banks nor Treasury is liable to a Person 
asserting or having an Adverse Claim to a Security Entitlement or to a 
Book-entry Security in a Participant's Securities Account, including any 
such claim arising as a result of the transfer or disposition of a Book-
entry Security by a Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to a Transfer Message 
that the Federal Reserve Bank reasonably believes to be genuine.
    (b) The obligation of the United States to make payments of interest 
and principal with respect to Book-entry Securities is discharged at the 
time payment in the appropriate amount is made as follows:
    (1) Interest on Book-entry Securities is either credited by a 
Federal Reserve Bank to a Funds Account maintained at the Bank or 
otherwise paid as directed by the Participant.
    (2) Book-entry Securities are redeemed in accordance with their 
terms by a Federal Reserve Bank withdrawing the securities from the 
Participant's Securities Account in which they are maintained and by 
either crediting the amount of the redemption proceeds, including both 
principal and interest, where applicable, to a Funds Account at the Bank 
or otherwise paying such principal and interest as directed by the 
Participant. No action by the Participant is required in connection with 
the redemption of a Book-entry Security.



Sec. 357.14  Authority of Federal Reserve Banks.

    (a) Each Federal Reserve Bank is hereby authorized as fiscal agent 
of the United States to perform functions with respect to the issuance 
of Book-entry Securities offered and sold by the Department to which 
this subpart applies, in accordance with the terms of the applicable 
offering circular and with procedures established by the Department; to 
service and maintain Book-entry Securities in accounts established for 
such purposes; to make payments of principal and interest, as directed 
by the Department; to effect transfer of Book-entry Securities between 
Participants' Securities Accounts as directed by the Participants; and 
to perform such other duties as fiscal agent as may be requested by the 
Department.
    (b) Each Federal Reserve Bank may issue Operating Circulars not 
inconsistent with this part, governing the details of its handling of 
Book-entry Securities, Security Entitlements, and

[[Page 386]]

the operation of the book-entry system under this part.



   Subpart C--Treasury Direct Book-Entry Securities System (TREASURY 
                                 DIRECT)



Sec. 357.20  Securities account in TREASURY DIRECT.

    (a) Account. A securities account consists of:
    (1) An account master record, and
    (2) A securities portfolio.
    (b) Security. A security in TREASURY DIRECT is evidenced by the 
account master record and a description of the security as set out in 
the securities portfolio associated with an account master record.
    (c) Account master record. An owner must establish an account master 
record before the owner may deposit a security in TREASURY DIRECT. If 
the security is being purchased on original issue, the request that an 
account master record be established may be made on the form used for 
purchase of the security. If the security is being acquired other than 
on original issue, the request that an account master record be 
established should be made on the appropriate form that is provided by 
the Department. The account master record includes, but is not limited 
to, the following data:
    (1) The exact form of registration in which the securities are held;
    (2) The TREASURY DIRECT account number;
    (3) The correspondence address for the account;
    (4) The TIN of the owner, or in the case of ownership by two 
individuals, of the first-named owner; and
    (5) Payment instructions. (See Sec. 357.26.)
    (d) Securities portfolio. The securities portfolio contains a 
description of each security and is the aggregate of all securities in 
the securities account.
    (e) Statement of account. The Department shall send a statement of 
account (statement):
    (1) Upon the establishment of an account master record;
    (2) Upon a change in the securities portfolio;
    (3) At an owner's request; or
    (4) Upon the determination on December 31 that an owner has not 
received a statement of account for that current calendar year.

The statement shall contain information regarding the account as of the 
date of such statement. The price associated with each security in the 
securities portfolio will also appear on the statement.\1\ The statement 
may be sent

[[Page 387]]

to the correspondence address designated in the account master record, 
or may be sent by electronic means. When the statement is issued as a 
result of a change in ownership of a security, statements will be sent, 
where appropriate, to both the former and current owners. Other 
information regarding the account may be obtained in accordance with 
Sec. 357.24.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ IRS regulations require reporting of income information on a 
security.
    (1) If the security is a bill, the price information will be used to 
comply with this requirement. The earnings reported to IRS for the year 
of a bill's maturity will be the difference between the par value of the 
bill and its price.
    (a) If a bill is deposited in TREASURY DIRECT at original issue, the 
price shown will be the issue price.
    (b) If a bill is transferred to TREASURY DIRECT from TRADES, the 
price shown will be that included in the transfer wire or supplied 
subsequently by the bill owner. If a price is not furnished, the price 
shown will be the weighted average price of the bill of the longest 
maturity having the identical CUSIP number.
    (c) If a bill is transferred from one TREASURY DIRECT account to 
another, the price shown in the receiving (transferee's) account will be 
that shown on the transfer instructions or supplied subsequently by the 
transferee. If a price is not furnished, the price shown will be the 
weighted average price at original issue of the bill of the longest 
maturity having the identical CUSIP number, unless the term of the bill 
can be determined from the account record in which case the price shown 
will be the weighted average price at original issue of the bill with 
that term.
    (2) If the security is a note or bond, the earnings reported to IRS 
for a year will be the periodic interest payments made during that year. 
If a note or bond is transferred to a TREASURY DIRECT account between 
interest payment dates, the earnings reported to IRS for the transferee 
will show the interest for the entire interest payment period. The price 
for notes and bonds will be shown on the statement of account for the 
account owner's information. The price shown will be determined 
following the procedures described above for bills.
    (3) The security owner should report directly to the IRS (a) 
adjustments to annual earnings amounts arising from acquisition of notes 
and bonds between interest payment periods and (b) price corrections for 
bills reported after preparation of the reports to the IRS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (f) Confirmation notice. The Department shall send a confirmation 
notice (notice):
    (1) Upon a change in an account master record;
    (2) Upon scheduling or canceling a reinvestment; or
    (3) To confirm the interest earned on a Treasury Inflation Indexed 
Security. The notice shall contain information regarding the account as 
of the date of such confirmation. The notice may be sent to the 
correspondence address designated in the account master record, or may 
be sent by electronic means. All changes reflected in paragraph (f) (1) 
and (2) of this section will be included in the next regularly scheduled 
statement of account. See paragraph (e) of this section for the 
statement schedule.
    (g) Account maintenance fees. An annual maintenance fee shall be 
charged for each TREASURY DIRECT securities account holding securities 
that in the aggregate exceed a stipulated par amount. The amount of the 
fee will be published by notice in the Federal Register.

(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 
1535-0068)

[51 FR 18265, May 16, 1986, as amended at 60 FR 4377, Jan. 23, 1995; 62 
FR 18004, Apr. 11, 1997; 62 FR 32033, June 12, 1997]



Sec. 357.21  Registration.

    (a) General. (1) Registration of a security conclusively establishes 
ownership, except in the case of partnership nominees, in which case the 
Department reserves the right to treat the registration as conclusive of 
ownership. The registration may not, except as provided in this Subpart, 
include any restriction on the authority of an owner to change the data 
in the account master record, transfer the security, or effect any other 
change in the securities portfolio.
    (2) The registration of all securities held by an owner should be 
uniform with respect to the owner's name. An owner must be identified by 
the name by which the owner is ordinarily known, preferably including at 
least one full given name. A suffix, such as Sr. or Jr., must be 
included when ordinarily used, or when necessary to distinguish members 
of the same family.
    (3) If an additional security is deposited in an existing account, 
the security will be registered in the same name and form of 
registration that appears in the designated account master record. One 
who holds a security as John Allen Doe should use that name when 
depositing another security rather than J. Allen Doe, or John A. Doe'. 
Minor variations in names used in acquiring a security to be deposited 
in an established account may be resolved by the Department.
    (b) Natural persons. A security may be registered in the names of 
one or two individuals, but only in one of the following forms:
    (1) Single ownership. In the name of one individual.

    Example: Robert W. Woods


An individual who is sole proprietor of a business conducted under a 
trade name may include a reference to the trade name.

    Example: John A. Doe, doing business as Doe's Home Appliance Store.

    (2) Ownership by two individuals--(i) ``And'' form--Joint 
Ownership--(A) Without right of survivorship. In the names of two 
individuals, joined by the word ``and'', and followed by the words 
``without right of survivorship''. A security so registered shall 
conclusively confer on each owner an undivided interest in the security.

    Example: Elizabeth Black and Jane Brown, without right of 
survivorship.


Any request for registration which purports, by its terms, to preclude 
the right of survivorship, or which requests registration in the names 
of two persons without indicating whether survivorship rights attach 
(other than a registration under paragraph (b)(2)(ii) of

[[Page 388]]

this section), will be presumed to be a request for registration without 
right of survivorship. If a security is registered in this form, a 
transaction request, other than a request by one owner to transfer the 
security to the other owner, and other than a request for reinvestment, 
must be executed by both owners.
    (B) With right of survivorship. In the names of two individuals, 
joined by the word ``and'', and followed by the words ``with right of 
survivorship''. A security so registered shall confer on each owner an 
undivided interest in the security and shall create a conclusive right 
of survivorship.

    Example: Mark A. Doe and Mary B. Doe, with right of survivorship.


If a security is registered in this form, a transaction request, other 
than a request by one owner to transfer the security to the other owner, 
and other than a request for reinvestment, must be executed by both 
owners.
    (ii) ``Or'' form--``Coownership''. In the names of two individuals, 
joined by the word ``or''. A security so registered shall confer on each 
owner an undivided interest in the security and shall create a 
conclusive right of survivorship.

    Example: Robert Woods or Laura Woods.


If a security is registered in this form, either coowner may make a 
transaction request, but if the Department receives conflicting requests 
at or about the same time, it may refuse to process them.
    (iii) Beneficiary. In the name of one individual followed by the 
words ``Payable on death to'' (or ``P.O.D.'') another individual.

    Example: Jack S. Jones, payable on death to Marie Jones.


If a minor or an incompetent is named as a beneficiary, the status of 
the beneficiary must be identified in the registration. A minor or an 
incompetent may not be designated as an owner. See paragraphs (b)(3) and 
(4) of this section.

    Example: John Perry, P.O.D. John Perry, Jr., a minor.


Registration in this form shall create ownership rights in the 
beneficiary only if the beneficiary survives the owner. During an 
owner's lifetime, a transaction request may be executed by the owner 
without the consent of the beneficiary. If the beneficiary dies before 
the owner, the security will be deemed to be registered in the owner's 
name alone.
    (3) Minors--(i) General. A security may not be registered in the 
name of a minor in his or her own right as an owner. If a security is so 
registered and the Department thereafter receives evidence or 
information of that fact, the Department may suspend processing of any 
transaction request with respect to the security until either a legal 
guardian has been appointed or a natural guardian, as provided in 
paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this section, has been recognized. Where a legal 
guardian is appointed, the Department will require a certified copy of 
the court order making such appointment. See Sec. 357.28(c).
    (ii) Natural guardians of minors. A security may be registered in 
the name of a natural guardian of a minor for whose estate no legal 
representative has been appointed. The parent with whom the minor 
resides will be recognized as the natural guardian. If the minor resides 
with both parents, either or both may be recognized as natural 
guardian(s). If the minor does not reside with either parent, the 
Department may recognize the person who furnishes the minor's chief 
support as the natural guardian.

    Examples: Michael Jones, as natural guardian of Alice Jones, a 
minor.

    Michael Jones and Evelyn Jones, as natural guardians of Alice Jones, 
a minor.


The security may also be registered in one of the forms authorized under 
paragraph (b)(2) of this section.

    Examples: James Green, as natural guardian of William Green, a 
minor, and Anne Green, without right of survivorship.

    James Green, as natural guardian of William Green, a minor, POD 
Lynne Green.

    (iii) Custodian under statute authorizing gifts to minors. A 
security may be registered as provided under an applicable gift to 
minors statute.

    Example: Virginia McDonald, as custodian for Lynne Gorman, under the 
New York Uniform Gifts to Minors Act.


[[Page 389]]



Any request to alter the rights of ownership of the security must be 
made as provided in the applicable statute.
    (4) Incompetents--(i) General. A security may not be registered in 
the name of an individual in his or her own right as an owner if that 
individual is incompetent. If a security is so registered, or if the 
owner subsequently becomes incompetent after the security is purchased, 
and the Department receives evidence or information of that fact, the 
Department may suspend any transaction with respect to the security 
until a legal guardian, conservator, or other representative of the 
incompetent's estate has been appointed, or a voluntary guardian, as 
provided in paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this section, has been recognized. 
Where a legal guardian, conservator, or other representative is 
appointed, the Department will require a certified copy of the court 
order making such appointment. See Sec. 357.28(c).
    (ii) Voluntary guardian of incompetent. If a legal guardian has not 
been appointed, and the face amount of the securities held in one or 
more accounts in TREASURY DIRECT by an owner who had become incompetent 
does not exceed, in the aggregate, $20,000 (par amount), upon submission 
to, and approval by, the Department of an appropriate form, a relative 
or other person responsible for an incompetent's care and support will 
be recognized as voluntary guardian for purpose of making a transaction 
request under Sec. 357.28(b)(4). All persons known by the Department to 
have an interest in the incompetent's estate, as required by the 
application form, must agree to the designation of the voluntary 
guardian. The security may be re-registered in the name of the voluntary 
guardian.

    Example: Richard Melrose, as voluntary guardian for James W. 
Brundige.

    (c) Representatives. A security may be registered in the name of a 
representative of an estate. If there is more than one representative, 
the names of some representatives may be omitted if followed by language 
that indicates the existence of other representatives. In such cases, 
those named in the registration shall be conclusively presumed by the 
Department to have authority to make a transaction request on behalf of 
all the representatives. The form of registration must identify the 
specific capacity of the representative(s) and the estate represented.

    Examples: ABC National Bank of Chicago, Illinois and Harold Smith, 
co-executors of the will (or administrators of the estate) of Charles 
Johnson, deceased.

    William Brown, guardian of the estate of Henry Jones, a minor.
    Robert Smith, Richard Smith, et al., executors of the will of 
Lorraine Smith, deceased.


If the representative is a trustee, the form of registration must 
identify specifically the authority or document creating the trust.

    Examples: Sarah Jones and XYZ Trust Co., trustees under the will of 
Matthew Smith, deceased.

    Cynthia Doe and Margaret Jones, trustees under agreement with Martha 
Roe, dated April 13, 1979.

    Cynthia Doe, trustee under declaration of trust, dated April 13, 
1979.

    Richard Smith, James Jones, and Frank Brown, trustees under the will 
of Henry K. James, deceased.

    ABC Corporation, Myrna Banker, et al., trustees of Profit-Sharing 
Plan of Ace Manufacturing Co., under B/D resolution, dated May 18, 1975.


If there are several trustees designated as a board or authorized to act 
as a unit, their names should be omitted and the words, ``Board of 
Trustees'' substituted.

    Example: Board of Trustees of Super Co. Retirement Fund, under 
collective bargaining agreement, dated March 18, 1969.


An organization (other than a bank) or individual seeking to act as 
trustee or custodian of an Individual Retirement Account (``IRA''), must 
be authorized to so act by the Internal Revenue Service. As appropriate, 
registration of the security should be in the form shown below:

    Examples: ABC Bank, trustee for John Doe IRA, under agreement dated 
December 21, 1990.
    EFG Broker, Inc., custodian for Mary Smith IRA, under agreement 
dated September 4, 1991.

    (d) Private organizations (corporations, unincorporated associations 
and partnerships). A security may be registered in

[[Page 390]]

the name of a private corporation, unincorporated association, or 
partnership. The full legal name of the organization, as set forth in 
its charter, articles of incorporation, constitution, partnership 
agreement, or other documents from which its powers are derived, must be 
included in the registration. The name may be followed by a reference to 
a particular account or fund, other than a trust fund, such as an escrow 
account.
    (1) A corporation. The legal name of a business, fraternal, 
religious, or other private corporation must be followed by descriptive 
words indicating the corporate status unless the term corporation or the 
abbreviation Inc. is part of the name or the name is that of a 
corporation or association organized under Federal law, such as a 
national bank or Federal savings and loan association.

    Examples: Brown Manufacturing Co., a corporation (Education Fund).

    The Apex Manufacturing Corporation.

    XYZ National Bank of El Paso, TX.

    Goodworks, Unlimited, a not-for-profit corporation.

    (2) An unincorporated association. Unless the name of a lodge, club, 
labor union, veterans or religious organization, or similar organization 
which is not incorporated (whether or not it is chartered by or 
affiliated with a parent organization which is incorporated) includes 
the words an unincorporated association, the registration must include 
descriptive words indicating the organization's unincorporated status. A 
security may not be registered in the name of an unincorporated 
association if the legal title to its property or the legal title to the 
funds with which the security is to be purchased is held by trustees. In 
such a case, the security should be registered in the name of the 
trustees in accordance with paragraph (c) of this section. The term 
unincorporated association should not be used to describe a trust fund, 
a partnership or a business conducted under a trade name.

    Examples: Local Union No. 13, Brotherhood of Operating Engineers, an 
unincorporated association.

    The Simpson Society, an unincorporated association.

    (3) Partnership. Unless the name of a partnership includes the word 
partnership, the registration must include descriptive words indicating 
partnership status.

    Examples: Red & Blue, a partnership.

    Abco and Co., a nominee partnership.

    (e) Governmental entities and officers. A security may be registered 
in the name of a State, county, city, town, village, school district, or 
other governmental entity, body, or corporation established by law. If a 
governmental officer is authorized to act as a trustee or custodian, a 
security may be registered in the title, or name and title, of the 
governmental officer. The form of registration should reflect the 
capacity in which the governmental entity or officer is authorized to 
hold property (e.g., it may be authorized to hold property in its own 
name or as trustee or custodian).

    Examples: Laura Woods, Treasurer, City of Twin Falls, Mo.

    State of Michigan.

    Village of Gaithersburg, Md.

    Pennsylvania State Highway Administration (Highway Road Repair 
Fund).

    Insurance Commissioner of Florida, trustee for benefit of policy 
holders of Sunshine Insurance Co. under F.S.A. Sec. 629.104.

    Commonwealth of Virginia, in trust for Virginia Surplus Property 
Agency.

    Gleason County Cemetery Commission, trustee under Md. Code Ann. Sec. 
310.29.

    (f) The United States Treasury. A security may be registered in the 
name of an individual, with the United States Treasury as beneficiary, 
provided a reference to the statute which authorizes gifts to be made to 
the United States to reduce the public debt, is included.

    Example: John S. Green, payable on death [or P.O.D.] to U.S.

Sec. 357.22  Transfers.

    (a) General. A security may be transferred only as authorized by 
this part. A security may be transferred from an account in TREASURY 
DIRECT to an

[[Page 391]]

account in TRADES. A security may be transferred between accounts in 
TREASURY DIRECT, or from an account in TRADES to an account in TREASURY 
DIRECT, provided that prior to, or coincidental with, the transfer, an 
account master record has been established in accordance with the 
requirements of Sec. 357.20(c). Notwithstanding the above, for Treasury 
bonds and notes purchased on original issue or on the additional issue 
of an outstanding issue, the Department may defer transfer from, or 
within, TREASURY DIRECT for a period not to exceed fourteen (14) 
calendar days from the date of issue to assure that payment therefor has 
been received and credited to the Treasury's account.
    (1) Identification of securities to be transferred. The owner must 
identify the securities to be transferred within TREASURY DIRECT, or 
from TREASURY DIRECT to TRADES, in the manner required by the 
transaction request form. If such identification is not provided, the 
request will not be processed and will be returned.
    (2) Denominational amounts. A security may be transferred from an 
account only in a denominational amount authorized by the offering under 
which the security was issued. Any security remaining in the securities 
portfolio after the transfer must also be in an authorized 
denominational amount.
    (3) When transfer effective. A transfer of a security within 
TREASURY DIRECT, or from TRADES to TREASURY DIRECT, is effective when an 
appropriate entry is made in the name of the transferee on the TREASURY 
DIRECT records. A transfer from TREASURY DIRECT to TRADES is effective 
as provided in Subpart B. If a transfer of a security from a transferor 
in TREASURY DIRECT to a transferee in TRADES cannot be completed, and 
the security is sent back to TREASURY DIRECT, the Department will 
redeposit the security in the transferor's account and treat the 
transferor as the owner.
    (b) Transfer to Federal Reserve Bank for sale of securities in the 
secondary market. (1) Upon authorization by the investor, an unmatured 
security may be transferred to a Federal Reserve Bank acting as the 
designated fiscal agent of the United States, to be sold on behalf of 
the investor.
    (2) Definitions. In this section, unless the context indicates 
otherwise:
    Dealer means an entity that is registered or has given notice of its 
status as a government securities broker or government securities 
dealer, pursuant to Section 15C(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934.
    Par amount means the stated value of a security at original 
issuance.
    Price means the dollar amount to be paid for a security expressed as 
a percent of its current par amount.
    Security means any amount held in a TREASURY DIRECT account which is 
represented by a separate CUSIP number.
    Settlement amount, also referred to as net amount, is the amount 
deposited by the Federal Reserve Bank to the account of the investor at 
the financial institution designated by the investor to receive TREASURY 
DIRECT payments. This amount is equal to the par amount of the 
securities multiplied by the price, plus any accrued interest, and less 
the transaction fee. For inflation indexed securities, the settlement 
amount also includes any applicable inflation adjustment, as provided in 
31 CFR Part 356. The settlement amount may be less than the par amount 
of the security.
    Settlement date is the date the settlement amount is released to the 
account at the financial institution designated by the investor for 
receipt of TREASURY DIRECT payments.
    Trade date means the date on which the Federal Reserve Bank enters 
into an agreement with a dealer for the sale of the security.
    Yield, also referred to as yield to maturity, means the annualized 
rate of return to maturity on a fixed principal security expressed as a 
percentage. For an inflation-indexed security, yield means real yield, 
as defined in 31 CFR part 356.
    (3) Procedure. On an approved Treasury form, the owner must 
authorize a transfer of the security from the investor's TREASURY DIRECT 
account to the designated Federal Reserve Bank, and authorize the 
Federal Reserve

[[Page 392]]

Bank to sell the security. Rules in subpart C of this part governing the 
transfer of securities will apply to the transfer of the security to the 
Federal Reserve Bank. Generally, on the day that the security is 
transferred to the Federal Reserve Bank, the Federal Reserve Bank will 
make reasonable efforts to obtain a price quote from at least three 
dealers, and will enter into an agreement to sell the security to the 
dealer with the highest price quote for next day settlement. What 
constitutes reasonable effort shall be determined solely by the Federal 
Reserve Bank. On the next full business day after the trade date, the 
settlement amount shall be released by direct deposit (electronic funds 
transfer), as provided in Sec. 357.26 of this part, to the account at 
the financial institution designated by the investor to accept TREASURY 
DIRECT payments, except when the Department determines that 
extraordinary circumstances exist that require payment by other means. 
In the event that the Federal Reserve Bank is unable to obtain at least 
one price quote for the security, the security will be returned to the 
TREASURY DIRECT account of the investor on the next full business day 
following the receipt of the securities by the Federal Reserve Bank, and 
the Federal Reserve Bank will notify the investor.
    (4) Confirmation. The Federal Reserve Bank will send a confirmation 
of the sale to the investor upon completion of the transaction. Such 
confirmation will include such information as price, trade date, 
settlement date, settlement amount, also referred to as net amount, 
transaction fee, and yield to maturity.
    (5) Price. By authorizing the transfer and sale of the securities, 
the investor agrees to accept the price received by the Federal Reserve 
Bank from the dealer selected as having the highest price quote.
    (6) Transaction fee. A transaction fee shall be charged for each 
security sold on behalf of the investor. If the Federal Reserve Bank is 
unable to complete the sale of the security, no fee will be charged. By 
authorizing the sale of the security, the investor authorizes the 
Federal Reserve Bank to withhold the transaction fee prior to the 
Federal Reserve Bank initiating the payment of the settlement amount to 
the account at the financial institution designated by the investor to 
receive TREASURY DIRECT payments. The amount of the transaction fee will 
be published by notice in the Federal Register.
    (7) Termination. This service may be terminated at anytime without 
prior notice at the discretion of the Department.
    (8) Rights. The provisions applicable to TREASURY DIRECT 
transactions in subpart C shall apply to this section. The provisions 
applicable to transactions in TRADES in subpart B shall not apply to 
this section.
    (9) Irrevocability. The authorization of the investor for the 
transfer and sale of the securities shall be irrevocable when the 
transfer from the TREASURY DIRECT account of the investor to the account 
at the Federal Reserve Bank is effected.
    (10) Liability. The Department and the designated Federal Reserve 
Bank shall not be liable for changes in market conditions affecting the 
price received for the security, or for any loss which the investor may 
incur as a result of the transaction or the inability of the Federal 
Reserve Bank to complete the transaction.
    (c) Transfer upon death of an owner--(1) Right of survivorship. If a 
security is registered in beneficiary form or a form which provides for 
a right of survivorship, upon the death of an owner, the beneficiary or 
survivor shall be the sole and absolute owner, notwithstanding any 
purported testamentary disposition by the decedent and notwithstanding 
any State or other law to the contrary. The Department will honor a 
transaction request by a beneficiary or a survivor (in the case of a 
security registered in the form described in Sec. 357.21(b)(2)(i)(B)) 
only upon proof of death of an owner.
    (2) Succession under law of domicile. If a security is registered in 
a form that does not provide for a right of survivorship, succession 
shall be determined in accordance with the applicable law of the 
deceased owner's domicile at the time of death.
    (d) Representative succession. If a security is registered in the 
name of a representative who has died, resigned, or

[[Page 393]]

been removed, succession shall be determined in accordance with 
applicable law and the terms of the document under which the 
representative was acting.
    (e) Organizational succession--(1) Corporation and unincorporated 
association. If a security is registered in the name of a corporation or 
an unincorporated association that has been dissolved, merged or 
consolidated into another organization, succession shall be determined 
in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the documents by 
which the dissolution, merger, or consolidation was effected.
    (2) Partnership. If a partnership is dissolved or terminated, 
succession shall be determined in accordance with applicable law and the 
terms of the partnership agreement.
    (f) Succession of governmental officer. If a security is registered 
in the name and title of a governmental officer who has died, resigned, 
or has been removed, succession shall be determined in accordance with 
applicable law.

Sec. 357.23  Judicial proceedings--sovereign immunity.

    (a) Department and Federal Reserve Banks not proper parties. The 
Department and the Federal Reserve Banks are not proper defendants in a 
judicial proceeding involving competing claims to a security held in 
TREASURY DIRECT nor are they subject to any injunction or restraining 
order issued with respect to a security. The Department will not 
recognize a notice of a pending or contemplated judicial or 
administrative proceeding affecting a security in TREASURY DIRECT.
    (b) Orders--(1) Ownership rights. The Department will recognize a 
final order entered by a court that affects ownership rights in a 
security in TREASURY DIRECT if:
    (i) The order is consistent with the provisions of this subpart and 
the terms and conditions of the security; and
    (ii) The Department has received evidence of the order, as provided 
in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (2) Transaction request. The Department will honor a transaction 
request submitted by a person appointed by a court and having authority 
under an order of a court to dispose of the security or payment with 
respect thereto if:
    (i) The ordered disposition of the security or payments with respect 
thereto is consistent with the provisions of this subpart and the terms 
and conditions of the security; and
    (ii) The Department has received evidence of the appointment and 
order, as provided in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (c) Evidence required. Before the Department will recognize an order 
or determination entered by a court, the Department must have received a 
certified copy of the judgment, decree, or order and any additional 
documents deemed necessary by the Department. A certificate from the 
clerk of the court, bearing the seal of the court, must also be 
submitted stating that the judgment, decree, or order is still in full 
force and has not been stayed or appealed, and that the time for filing 
an appeal has passed. Before the Department will honor a transaction 
request submitted by a person appointed by a court, the Department must 
receive a certified copy of the order making the appointment and 
describing specifically the person's authority, and any additional 
documents deemed necessary by the Department.

Sec. 357.24  Availability and disclosure of TREASURY DIRECT records.

    (a) General. All records with respect to a TREASURY DIRECT account 
are held confidential. Consistent with the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a), 
information relating to those accounts will be released only to the 
owner except:
    (1) As provided in these regulations;
    (2) As provided in Treasury regulations contained in 31 CFR Part 
323; or
    (3) As otherwise provided by law.

[[Page 394]]

    (b) Inquiries by owners. Information requested will be disclosed to 
an owner provided that:
    (1) Sufficient information is provided to identify the owner; and
    (2) Sufficient information is provided to identify the TREASURY 
DIRECT account.
    (c) Conditions for release. A request for information will be 
honored only if, in the sole judgment of the Department or the Federal 
Reserve Bank to which the inquiry is made, the identity and right of the 
requester to the information have been established.
[51 FR 18265, May 16, 1986; 51 FR 18884, May 23, 1986]



Sec. 357.25  Security interests.

    (a) General. The Department will not recognize any notice or claim 
of a lien, encumbrance, or security interest of any kind, including a 
pledge, in a security in TREASURY DIRECT except as provided in 
Sec. 357.23 and in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Security for the performance of duty or obligation under Federal 
law. The Department will accept and hold pursuant to the provisions of 
31 U.S.C. 9303, book-entry bonds, notes or bills submitted in lieu of a 
surety bond as security for the performance of a duty or obligation 
required by Federal law in accordance with said section.



Sec. 357.26  Payments.

    (a) General. A payment by the Department with respect to a security 
shall be by direct deposit (electronic funds transfer), except when the 
Department determines that extraordinary circumstances exist that 
require payment by check.
    (b) Direct deposit--(1) Information on deposit account at financial 
institution. (i) To establish an account in TREASURY DIRECT, the owner 
must furnish the name and ABA routing/transit number of the financial 
institution (institution) to which payments with respect to a security 
are to be made, as well as a depositor name reference, deposit account 
number, and type or classification of account at the institution to 
which such payments are to be credited. The information should be 
furnished on the tender form if the account is being established on 
original issue, or in other cases on an appropriate form provided by the 
Department. To assure the accuracy of the account number and account 
type, as well as the name and ABA routing/transit number of the 
institution to which payments are to be made, the owner should consult 
with the institution in advance of the submission of the tender or 
transaction form. If the investor finds that the institution to be 
designated to receive TREASURY DIRECT payments has not agreed to receive 
direct deposit payments under 31 CFR part 210, but is willing to do so, 
the investor should ask the institution to contact the Federal Reserve 
Bank of its district for enrollment advice.
    (ii) Where the TREASURY DIRECT securities account is in the name of 
individual(s) in their own right, and the deposit account at the 
financial institution is in the name of individual(s) in their own 
right, the two accounts must contain at least one name that is common to 
both.
    (iii) Where the deposit account to which payments are to be directed 
is held in the name of the financial institution itself acting as sole 
trustee, or as co-trustee, or is in the name of a commercially-managed 
investment fund, particular inquiry should first be made of the 
financial institution to make certain that the direct deposit payments 
can be received, and alternate arrangements made if it cannot do so.
    (iv) In any case where, after the establishment of the securities 
account, it is determined that direct deposit payments cannot be 
accepted by the financial institution designated, under these 
circumstances, and pending new direct deposit instructions, payments 
will be made by check drawn in the name of the owner and sent to the 
correspondence address of record.
    (v) All payments relating to a single account master record must be 
made to the same designated account at a financial institution.
    (vi) The deposit account to which payments are directed should 
preferably be established in a form identical to the registration of the 
securities account, particularly where the securities are registered 
jointly or with right of survivorship, to assure that

[[Page 395]]

the rights of ownership and of survivorship can be more easily 
identified and preserved. Neither the United States nor any Federal 
Reserve Bank shall be liable for any loss sustained because the 
interests of the holder(s) of a deposit account to which payments are 
made are not the same as the interests of the owner(s) of the security.
    (2) Rules. Direct deposit (electronic funds transfer) payments are 
governed by the regulations at 31 CFR part 370.
    (3) Prenotification. A prenotification message must be sent to the 
financial institution designated to receive ACH payments to confirm the 
accuracy of the account information furnished by an owner, or other 
person or entity entitled to make the designation, and to advise the 
financial institution that such account has been so designated. 
Prenotification messages may be sent at any time, but not less than 10 
calendar days prior to the first ACH payment. A prenotification message 
may also be sent whenever there is a change in the payment instructions. 
The prenotification message shall contain the ABA routing/transit number 
of the financial institution to which payments with respect to a 
security are to be made, as well as a depositor name reference, deposit 
account number, and type or classification of account at the institution 
to which such payments are to be credited. Responses to a 
prenotification message will be received in accordance with the 
provisions in 31 CFR 370.5. Where the circumstances indicate that there 
is insufficient time to effect the change received in response to the 
prenotification message, payment will be made by check in accordance 
with paragraph (c) of this section.
    (c) Checks. If a payment is not made by direct deposit, it shall be 
made by a check, drawn by a Federal Reserve Bank as fiscal agent of the 
United States, on the Federal Reserve Bank in its banking capacity 
(fiscal agency check), or drawn by the Department on itself (Treasury 
check). A fiscal agency check is governed by the regulations in 31 CFR 
part 355. A Treasury check is governed by the regulations and statutes 
applicable to checks drawn on the United States or designated 
depositories of the United States (i.e., 31 CFR parts 235, 240, and 
245). A check issued with respect to a security shall be made payable in 
the names of the owner(s) of the TREASURY DIRECT account and will be 
mailed to the correspondence address shown in the TREASURY DIRECT 
account.
    (d) Suspension of payments. Upon receipt of notice that a designated 
deposit account has been closed, that an individual named on such 
account is dead or has been declared legally incompetent, or where a 
corporation is the owner, and it has been dissolved, the Department 
reserves the right to suspend payments and any transactions with respect 
to a security pending receipt of satisfactory evidence of entitlement. 
Payments will also be suspended in any case where the Department 
receives notice that an individual owner named on a securities account 
in TREASURY DIRECT is dead or has been declared legally incompetent, or 
in any case where the Department receives notice of a change in the name 
or status of an organization or representative named on a securities 
account in TREASURY DIRECT.

FR 6113, Feb. 16, 1996]



Sec. 357.27  Reinvestment.

    (a) General. Upon the request of an owner, the redemption proceeds 
of a security may be reinvested at maturity in a new security in the 
same form of registration, provided a new security is then being offered 
by the Department and provision for reinvestment is made in the 
offering. The new security must be in an authorized denominational 
amount and will be issued in accordance with the terms of the offering. 
If the new security is issued at a premium or with accrued interest, an 
additional payment will be required from the investor. If the new 
security is issued at a discount, the difference will be remitted to the 
owner.
    (b) Treasury bills. A request by an owner for a single or successive 
reinvestment of a Treasury bill must be made in accordance with the 
terms prescribed on the tender form submitted

[[Page 396]]

at the time of purchase of the original bill, or by a subsequent 
transaction request received not less than ten (10) business days prior 
to the maturity date of the bill. A request to revoke a direction to 
reinvest the proceeds of a bill must be received by the Department not 
less than ten (10) business days prior to the maturity date of the bill. 
If either a request for reinvestment or revocation of a reinvestment 
request is received less than ten (10) business days prior to maturity 
of the original bill, the Department may in its discretion act on such 
request if sufficient time remains for processing.
    (c) Issue date not coincidental with maturity date. If the date on 
which a security matures or is called does not coincide with the issue 
date of the security being purchased through reinvestment, the 
Department may, at its option, hold the redemption proceeds in the same 
form of registration as the maturing or called security, but no interest 
shall accrue or be paid on such funds.

Sec. 357.28  Transaction requests.

    (a) General. Unless otherwise authorized by the Department, a 
transaction request must be submitted on a transaction request form. In 
the case of certain transactions specified by the Department, the 
owner's signature on the form must be certified or guaranteed, as 
provided in Sec. 357.31. If the transaction request form is received 
more than six (6) months after its execution, it will not be honored by 
the Department and will be returned to the sender for further 
instructions.
    (b) Individuals--(1) General. A transaction request must be signed 
by the owner of the security. In addition to any required certification, 
a transaction request form executed by a person by mark, e.g., ``(X)'', 
must be witnessed by a disinterested person. The following language 
should be added to the form and be signed by the witness:

    Witness to signature by mark
 _______________________________________________________________________
Signature of witness
 _______________________________________________________________________
Address of witness

    (2) Change of name. If an individual's name has been changed from 
that appearing in the registration, the individual should sign both 
names to the transaction request form and state the manner in which the 
change occurred.

    Example: Deborah L. Gains, changed by order of court from Deborah G. 
O'Brien.


The individual must provide evidence, such as a certified copy of a 
court order, which confirms the change, unless it is indicated that the 
change of name resulted from marriage.

    Example: Catherine M. Cole, changed by marriage from Catherine T. 
Murray.

    (3) Natural guardians. A transaction request involving a security 
registered in the name of a natural guardian of a minor may be executed 
by the natural guardian. If a security is registered in the names of 
both parents as natural guardians of a minor, both must execute a 
transaction request. However, the Department will not honor a 
transaction request by the natural guardian(s):
    (i) Which would transfer the security to a natural guardian in his 
or her own right; or
    (ii) After the Department receives notice of the minor's attainment 
of majority, the qualification of a legal guardian or similar 
representative, or the death of the minor.
    (4) Voluntary guardians. A transaction request involving a security 
belonging to an owner who has become incompetent may be executed by a 
voluntary guardian, but only after approval by the Department of the 
voluntary guardian's application for such designation. However, the 
Department will not honor a transaction request by the voluntary 
guardian:
    (i) Which would transfer the security to a voluntary guardian in his 
or her own right; or
    (ii) After the Department receives notice of the ward's restoration 
to competency, the qualification of a legal guardian or similar 
representative, or the death of the ward. See Sec. 357.21(b)(4).
    (c) Representatives--(1) General. A representative of an owner's 
estate, other

[[Page 397]]

than a trustee, may execute a transaction request form if the 
representative submits to the Department properly authenticated evidence 
of the authority to act. The evidence will not be accepted if dated more 
than six (6) months prior to the date of execution of the transaction 
request.
    (2) Estates closed. If a security is registered in the name of an 
owner who is deceased and whose estate has been closed and the 
representative discharged, a transaction request must be made by the 
person(s) entitled to the security, as determined from the pertinent 
court records or the deceased owner's will, if any.
    (3) Estates not administered--(i) Special provisions under State 
laws. If, under applicable State law, a person is entitled to or has 
been recognized or appointed to administer the estate of a deceased 
owner without court-supervised administration, that person may execute a 
transaction request involving a security belonging to the deceased 
owner, provided appropriate evidence of authority is submitted to the 
Department.
    (ii) Agreement of persons entitled. If a representative of a 
deceased owner's estate has not been or is not to be appointed, the 
Department will honor an application for disposition of any securities 
belonging to the deceased owner pursuant to a written agreement provided 
that the Department is satisfied that:
    (A) All persons entitled to share in the decedent's personal estate 
are parties to the agreement;
    (B) Provision has been made for payment of all the decedent's debts; 
and
    (C) The interests of any minors or incompetents have been protected.
    (d) Private organizations--(1) Corporations and unincorporated 
associations. A transaction request involving a security registered in 
the name of a corporation or an unincorporated association (either in 
its own right or in a representative capacity), may be executed by an 
authorized person on its behalf. The request must be supported by 
evidence of the person's authority to act.
    (2) Partnerships. A transaction request involving a security 
registered in the name of a partnership must be executed by a general 
partner.
    (e) Government entities. A transaction request involving a security 
registered in the name of a State, county, city, school district, or 
other governmental entity, public body or corporation, must be executed 
by a authorized officer of the entity. The request must be supported by 
evidence of the officer's authority to act.
    (f) Public officers. A transaction request involving a security 
registered in the title of a public officer must be executed by the 
officer. The request must be supported by evidence of incumbency.
    (g) Attorneys-in-fact. A transaction request made by an attorney-in-
fact must be accompanied by the original power of attorney or a properly 
authenticated copy. A power of attorney must be executed in the presence 
of a notary public or a certifying individual. See Sec. 357.31. The 
power of attorney will not be accepted if it was executed more than two 
(2) years before the date the transaction request was executed, unless 
the power provides that the authority of the attorney-in-fact continues 
notwithstanding the incapacity of the principal. If two or more 
attorneys-in-fact are named, all must execute the transaction request 
unless the power authorizes fewer than all to act. A transaction request 
executed by an attorney-in-fact seeking transfer of a security to the 
attorney-in-fact will not be accepted unless expressly authorized by the 
document appointing the attorney-in-fact.

Sec. 357.29  Time required for processing transaction request.

    For purposes of a transaction request affecting payment instructions 
with respect to a security, a proper request must be received not less 
than ten (10) business days preceding the next payment date. If a 
transaction request is received less than ten (10) business days 
preceding a payment date, the Department may in its discretion act on 
such request if sufficient time remains for processing. If a transaction 
request is received too late for completion of

[[Page 398]]

the requested transaction, the transaction request will be acted upon 
with respect to future payments only.

Sec. 357.30  Cases of delay or suspension of payment.

    If evidence required by the Department in support of a transaction 
request is not received by the Department at least ten (10) business 
days before the maturity date of the security, or if payment at maturity 
has been suspended pursuant to Sec. 357.26(d), then, except as provided 
in Sec. 357.27, in cases of reinvestment, the Department will redeem the 
security and hold the redemption proceeds in the same form of 
registration as the security redeemed, pending further disposition. No 
other interest shall accrue or be paid on such proceeds after the 
security is redeemed.

Sec. 357.31  Certifying individuals.

    (a) General. The following individuals may certify signatures on 
transaction request forms:
    (1) Officers and employees of depository institutions, corporate 
central credit unions, and institutions that are members of Treasury-
recognized signature guarantee programs who have been authorized:
    (i) Generally to bind their respective institutions by their acts;
    (ii) Unqualifiedly to guarantee signatures to assignments of 
securities; or
    (iii) To certify assignments of securities.
    (2) Officers and authorized employees of Federal Reserve Banks.
    (3) Officers of Federal Land Banks, Federal Intermediate Credit 
Banks and Banks for Cooperatives, the Central Bank for Cooperatives, and 
Federal Home Loan Banks.
    (4) Commissioned officers and warrant officers of the Armed Forces 
of the United States but only with respect to signatures executed by 
Armed Forces personnel, civilian field employees, and members of their 
families.
    (5) Such other persons as the Commissioner of the Public Debt or his 
designee may authorize.
    (b) Foreign countries. The following individuals are authorized to 
certify signatures on transaction request forms executed in a foreign 
country:
    (1) United States diplomatic or consular officials.
    (2) Managers and officers of foreign branches of depository 
institutions and institutions that are members of Treasury-recognized 
signature guarantee programs.
    (3) Notaries public and other officers authorized to administer 
oaths, provided their official position and authority are certified by a 
United States diplomatic or consular official under seal of the office.
    (c) Duties and liabilities of certifying individuals-- (1) General. 
Except as specified in paragraph (c)(2) of this section, a certifying 
individual shall require that the transaction request form be signed in 
the certifying individual's presence after he or she has established the 
identity of the person seeking the certification. An employee who is not 
an officer should insert the words ``Authorized signature'' in the space 
provided for the title. A certifying individual and the organization for 
which he or she is acting are jointly and severally liable for any loss 
the United States may incur as a result of the individual's negligence 
in making the certification.
    (2) Signature guaranteed. The transaction request form need not be 
executed in the presence of a certifying individual if he or she 
unqualifiedly guarantees the signature, in which case the certifying 
individual shall, after the signature, add the following endorsement: 
``Signature guaranteed, First National Bank of Smithville, Smithville, 
NH, by A.B. Doe, President'', and add the date. In guaranteeing a 
signature, the certifying individual and the organization for which he 
or she is acting warrant to the Department that the signature is genuine 
and that the signer had the legal capacity to execute the transaction 
request.

[[Page 399]]

    (3) Absence of signature guaranteed by depository institution. A 
transaction request form need not be actually signed by the owner in any 
case where a certifying individual associated with a depository 
institution has placed an endorsement on the form reading substantially 
as follows: ``Absence of signature by owner and validity of transaction 
guaranteed, Second State Bank of Jonesville, Jonesville, NC, by B.R. 
Butler, Vice President''. The endorsement should be dated, and the seal 
of the institution should be added. This form of endorsement is an 
unconditional guarantee to the Department that the institution is acting 
for the owner under proper authorization.
    (d) Evidence of certifying individual's authority. The authority of 
a certifying individual to act is evidenced by affixing to the 
certification the following:
    (1) Officers and employees of depository institutions. The 
institution's seal or signature guarantee stamp; if the institution is 
an authorized paying agent for U.S. Savings Bonds, a legible imprint of 
the paying agent's stamp; or, if the institution is a member of the 
Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), a legible imprint of 
the STAMP signature guarantee stamp.
    (2) Officers and authorized employees of institutions that are 
members of Treasury-recognized signature guarantee programs. A legible 
imprint of the program's signature guarantee stamp, e.g., the STAMP, 
SEMP, MSP stamp for members of the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion 
Program, the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program, or the New York Stock 
Exchange Incorporated Medallion Signature Program, respectively.
    (3) Officers and authorized employees of Federal Reserve Banks. 
Whatever is prescribed in procedures established by the Department.
    (4) Officers and employees of corporate central credit unions and 
other entities listed in paragraph (a)(3) of this section. The entity's 
seal.
    (5) Notaries public, diplomatic or consular officials. The official 
seal or stamp of the office. If the certifying individual has no seal or 
stamp, then the official's position must be certified by some other 
authorized individual, under seal or stamp, or otherwise proved to the 
satisfaction of the Department.
    (6) Commissioned or warrant officers of the United States Armed 
Forces. A statement which sets out the officer's rank and the fact that 
the person executing the transaction request is one whose signature the 
officer is authorized to certify under the regulations in this part.
    (7) Such other persons as the Commissioner of the Public Debt or his 
designee may authorize. The evidence specified by the Commissioner or 
his designee.
    (e) Interested persons not to act as certifying individual. Neither 
the transferor, the transferee, nor any person having an interest in a 
security involved in the transaction may act as a certifying individual. 
However, an authorized officer or employee of a depository institution 
or of an institution that is a member of a Treasury-recognized signature 
guarantee program may act as a certifying individual on a transaction 
request for transfer of a security to the institution, or any request 
executed by another individual on behalf of the institution.

            Appendix A to Part 357--Discussion of Final Rule

                               Background

    Twenty-four written comments were received to the notice of proposed 
rulemaking from various sources, including Federal agencies, trade 
associations, as well as financial and commercial investment 
institutions. With the exception of one bank, all commentators endorsed 
the concept of a certificateless security.
    The grouping and identification of the comments received have been 
made on a section-by-section basis, with an explanation of the action 
taken with respect thereto. As circumstances necessitated the 
publication of the rule in two segments, in order to make each part more 
understandable, certain definitions, such as those for ``Department'' 
and ``securities'', have appeared in the proposed rule for both TREASURY 
DIRECT and TRADES, and were slightly modified in the proposed rules on 
TRADES. Because these modifications represent non-substantive 
clarifications, and to avoid confusion as between the two portions of 
the rules, the definitions as used in TRADES have been adopted.

                       Section-By-Section Analysis

                      Section 357.21  Registration.

    The forms of registrations provided for securities to be held in 
TREASURY DIRECT have different legal effect from those currently 
provided for in the case of definitive Treasury securities and for the 
Treasury's book-entry Treasury bill system. A comment was received that, 
as a result, this could lead to some confusion, and that the Treasury 
bill forms of recordation currently offered should be changed, 
particularly since Treasury bills will be phased into TREASURY DIRECT 
gradually. The Bureau believes that the benefits of uniformity of rights 
and interests that TREASURY DIRECT investors

[[Page 401]]

will derive far outweigh any possible confusion. As for confusion with 
the current Treasury bill book-entry system, given the fact that 
Treasury bills have a term of not more than a year, it is believed that 
the problem, if any, will be short-lived.
    Given the importance of the change that TREASURY DIRECT provides as 
to registration, the discussion thereof that accompanied the Notice of 
Proposed Rulemaking is re-published below.
    ``Forms of Registration. The proposed rule provides the investor 
with a variety of registration options. They are essentially similar to 
those provided for registered, definitive marketable Treasury 
securities. Investors should be particularly aware that, where the 
security is held in the names of two individuals, the registration 
chosen may establish rights of survivorship.
    ``The reason for establishing the rights of ownership for securities 
held in TREASURY DIRECT is that it will give investors the assurance 
that the forms of registration they select will establish conclusively 
the rights to their book-entry securities. It will also serve to 
eliminate some of the uncertainties, as well as possible conflicts, 
between the varying laws of the several States.
    ``A Federal rule of ownership is being adopted by the Treasury for 
TREASURY DIRECT securities. This regulatory approach is consistent with 
the one previously taken in the case of United States Savings Bonds. It 
will have the effect of overriding inconsistent State laws. See, Free v. 
Bland, 369 U.S. 663 (1962).
    ``In the case of individuals (who are likely to be by far the 
majority of holders of securities in TREASURY DIRECT), the options 
offered will permit virtually all the preferred forms of ownership. At 
the investor's option, it will be possible to provide for the 
disposition of the securities upon death through rights of survivorship.
    ``Coownership registration. One option is the coownership form of 
registration, i.e., ``A or B.'' Unlike the current Treasury bill book-
entry system being administered by the Bureau of the Public Debt, a 
security held in TREASURY DIRECT registered in this form will be 
transferable upon the written request of either coowner. Other changes 
in the account may also be made upon the request of either party. While 
this form of registration will facilitate the receipt of payments and 
provide ease in conducting transactions, care should obviously be 
exercised in designating a coowner.
    ``Joint ownership. For those who would prefer to have the 
transferability of a security held in two names contingent upon the 
request of both, the joint form of registration will be appropriate. 
This form of registration, i.e., ``A and B, with [without] the right of 
survivorship,'' will require the agreement of both parties to conduct 
any authorized transaction.
    ``Beneficiary form. The beneficiary form, i.e., ``A payable on death 
to (POD) B,'' will permit the owner to have sole control of the account 
during his/her lifetime, but in the event of death, the account will 
pass by right of survivorship to the beneficiary.''
    One commentator questioned the ``natural guardian'' and ``voluntary 
guardian'' forms of registration provided in the regulations, pointing 
out that financial institutions are reluctant to establish an account in 
the name of a natural guardian of a minor because of the uncertainties 
as to who might be entitled to the funds on the death of the natural 
guardian or minor, or when the minor reached majority. It was mentioned 
that a bank would be reluctant to open an account in the name of a 
voluntary guardian, or to release funds from an existing account to a 
voluntary guardian because of the potential risk in the event of a claim 
from a court-appointed guardian. It seems apparent that the comment was 
prompted by the provision that appeared in the proposed rule that the 
account held in TREASURY DIRECT and the deposit account to which 
payments are to be directed should be in the same form. As hereafter 
pointed out in the discussion under the payment section, this is not a 
requirement.
    While parents are universally recognized as the natural guardians of 
the person of minors, they have generally not been recognized as 
entitled to control the estates of these minors, except perhaps in the 
case of small amounts. Traditionally, the guardian of the estate of a 
minor involves judicial appointment and supervision. In order to provide 
a means of dealing with the problem of disposing of securities 
inadvertently registered in the name of minors without requiring the 
appointment of a legal guardian and to provide a means for investing 
funds of a minor, which did not technically qualify for investment under 
the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, the Department decided to provide 
recognition for natural guardians.
    The voluntary guardianship procedure is wholly a creature of the 
Department's regulations. It was established in recognition of the 
burden placed on an incompetent's estate and his/her family by requiring 
the appointment of a legal guardian to receive the interest on, or to 
redeem securities for, the account of an individual who has become 
incompetent, at least where the incompetent's estate is relatively 
modest. This form of registration is not available on original issue and 
is limited to an aggregate of $20,000 (par amount) of TREASURY DIRECT 
securities. The $20,000 limit in connection with the use of the 
voluntary guardianship procedure is in keeping with the limits used in 
connection

[[Page 402]]

with the summary administration of decedents' estates under the laws of 
many States.

                  Section 357.23  Judicial proceedings.

    No comments were received regarding the provisions on judicial 
proceedings. Given their importance, the discussion that accompanied the 
publication thereof in proposed form is included here.
    Judicial proceedings. Under the principle of sovereign immunity, 
neither the Department nor a Federal Reserve Bank, acting as fiscal 
agent of the United States, will recognize a court order that attempts 
to restrain or enjoin the Department or a Federal Reserve Bank from 
making payment on a security or from disposing of a security in 
accordance with instructions of the owner as shown on the Department's 
records.
    ``The Department will recognize a final court order affecting 
ownership rights in TREASURY DIRECT securities provided that the order 
is consistent with the provisions of subpart C and the terms and 
conditions of the security, and the appropriate evidence, as described 
in Sec. 357.23(c), is supplied to the Department. For example, the 
Department may recognize final orders arising from divorce or 
dissolution of marriage, creditor or probate proceedings, or cases 
involving application of a State slayer's act. The Department will also 
recognize a transaction request submitted by a person appointed by a 
court and having authority under an order of a court to dispose of the 
security or payment with respect thereto, provided conditions similar to 
those above are met.''

                   Section 357.25  Security interests.

    TREASURY DIRECT is not designed to reflect or handle the various 
types of security interests that may arise in connection with a Treasury 
bond, note or bill. However, the Treasury has from time to time and to a 
limited extent held in safekeeping, for such agencies as the Customs 
Service and Immigration and Naturalization Service, Treasury securities 
submitted in lieu of surety bonds in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 9303. 
While the Federal Reserve Banks handle the majority of such pledges and 
will continue to do so, as this statute requires the Treasury to accept 
these Government obligations so pledged, a provision has been added for 
accepting and holding book-entry securities submitted for such purposes.

                        Section 357.26  Payments.

    (a) General. Most comments focused on the provisions on payments. A 
key feature of TREASURY DIRECT will be the making of payments by the 
direct deposit method (also known as the electronic funds transfer or 
ACH method). Checks will be issued only under extraordinary 
circumstances. A number of comments endorsed the concept of payment by 
direct deposit as an improvement given the difficulties associated with 
checks.
    One comment expressed concern as to who would have the burden of 
resolving errors in cases where a receiving financial institution fails 
to properly credit a payment. The Department has concluded that while 
the direct deposit payment method is not without risks, it is far 
superior to the use of checks, in terms of the risks, potential losses, 
and costs. In a case where a receiving institution fails to act in 
accordance with the instructions given it, the Bureau intends to use its 
best efforts to assist investors in rectifying the error.
    (b) Direct deposit. A number of comments expressed the view that the 
TREASURY DIRECT payment system should adopt either the rules governing 
the direct deposit of Government payments (31 CFR part 210), or the 
rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association (``NACHA 
Rules''), but not separate rules. The final rules have adopted some of 
the existing practices applicable to commercial ACH payments, but it is 
not possible for the Department of the Treasury to conform to all of 
these rules. For example, the Treasury has no authority to indemnify 
recipients of direct deposit payments, although such indemnification by 
a sender is contemplated in the NACHA rules and was advocated in several 
comments. It should also be noted that the rules applicable to TREASURY 
DIRECT payments are modeled, to some extent, on the rules for Government 
direct deposit payments in order to take advantage of the large number 
of entities that are a part of the Government direct deposit network. 
See the discussion under paragraph (b)(2). Where there are unique rules 
applicable to TREASURY DIRECT, however, they are explained here.
    Given the variance between the procedures set out in the proposed 
rules and existing practice, and the increased burdens resulting 
therefrom, several clearing house associations and financial 
institutions requested that the implementation of TREASURY DIRECT be 
delayed from July 1986 to July 1987. The Treasury is satisfied that the 
added burdens that would have been imposed on financial institutions to 
receive TREASURY DIRECT payments under the proposed rules have been 
effectively eliminated in the final rule. Thus, Treasury plans to 
implement the system on or about the original target date. The final 
rules are being published, however, in advance of actual implementation 
so as to give financial institutions an opportunity to make whatever 
remaining, minor procedural changes as may be necessary.
    (b)(1) Information on deposit account at financial institution. The 
proposed regulations provided that the owner of a security in

[[Page 403]]

TREASURY DIRECT, or in the case of ownership by two individuals, the 
first-named owner, must be an owner of, and so designated, on the 
account at the receiving financial institution. The regulations also 
provided that in any case in which a security is held jointly or with 
right of survivorship, the account at the financial institution should 
be established in a form that assures that the rights of each joint 
owner or survivor will be preserved.
    The rule requiring the naming of the first-named owner on the 
receiving financial institution account was based on tax reporting 
considerations. It has now been determined that the first-named security 
owner need not be named on the receiving deposit account.
    The rule relating to establishment of the receiving account in joint 
ownership cases in the same form as the registration of the security was 
intended to be a notice to investors of a potential problem, rather than 
a requirement. In cases where an investor intends a beneficiary, joint 
owner or coowner to receive securities after the investor's death, this 
intention may be defeated if the recipient is not also named on the 
receiving deposit account. It is up to the investor to examine his or 
her particular circumstances and determine whether the form in which the 
deposit account will be held is satisfactory. This matter has been 
clarified in paragraph (b)(1)(v) of the final rule. Except for the 
restriction described in paragraph (b)(1)(ii) (see below), the Treasury 
does not intend to establish any limitations on how the receiving 
deposit account is held.
    Several comments addressed the issue of the registration of the 
security versus the title of the deposit account. Two comments pointed 
out that if the deposit account must be in the same form as the 
registration of the security, then existing traditional forms of 
ownership for bank accounts, which do not include all the forms of 
registration for securities held in TREASURY DIRECT, would not suffice. 
Concerns were also expressed that with multiple forms of ownership, 
financial institutions could become involved in disputes with investors. 
As noted above, there is no requirement that the TREASURY DIRECT account 
and the deposit account be identical. The responsibility to choose the 
title of the deposit account rests with the investor.
    Another comment objected to the rule that the first-named security 
owner be named on the receiving deposit account because the rule would 
eliminate the possibility of payment to an account at a financial 
institution in the name of a mutual fund, security dealer, or insurance 
company. Although the change in the tax reporting rule described above 
permits payment to such accounts, as well as to trust accounts, since it 
appears that there is a question as to the capability of some receiving 
institutions to handle such payments, investors are strongly urged to 
consult their financial institution before requesting such payment 
arrangements. See paragraph (b)(1)(iii).
    It should be emphasized that any payments that must be made by check 
will be made in the form in which the TREASURY DIRECT account is held, 
which may be different than the form of the deposit account. Investors 
should be aware that this may result in checks being issued, and thus 
payment being made, in a form different than they intended the direct 
deposit payments to be made. For example, if Investor A purchases a 
security in his or her name alone with instructions that payments be 
directed to a financial institution for the account of a money market 
fund, any checks that must be issued will be drawn in the name of 
Investor A. This could happen if Investor A furnishes erroneous payment 
instructions and the problem cannot be resolved before a payment date, 
in which case a check would be issued.
    The one restriction on the form of the deposit account that appears 
in paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of the final regulations is a rule that where 
the TREASURY DIRECT account is in the name of individual(s), and the 
receiving deposit account is also in the name of individual(s), one of 
the individuals on the TREASURY DIRECT account must be named on the 
deposit account. This rule is intended to provide a means to determine 
the disposition of the payment, if necessary. The Treasury does not 
expect financial institutions to monitor this rule.
    Provision has been made in paragraph (b)(1)(vii) to permit financial 
institutions to request ``mass changes'' of deposit account numbers 
without the submission of individual requests from investors to TREASURY 
DIRECT. This procedure is intended for use where an institution changes 
all or an entire group of its account numbers, typically as a result of 
an organizational change. TREASURY DIRECT will honor requests from a 
financial institution to change deposit account numbers under such 
circumstances, with the understanding that the institution agrees to 
indemnify the Treasury and the security owners for any losses resulting 
from errors made by the institution. If the institutions does not wish 
to use the ``mass change'' procedure, then the change in account number 
must be requested by the investor, using the authorized transaction 
request form. See Sec. 357.28.
    Some institutions voiced concern in general about investor errors in 
furnishing the TREASURY DIRECT a deposit account number and the 
financial institution's routing number. Although the Treasury plans to 
provide as much assistance to investors as possible, the investor must 
bear the responsibility for securing accurate payment information. 
Investors are urged to consult with

[[Page 404]]

their receiving institution to verify the accuracy of the payment 
information, since neither the Treasury nor the receiving financial 
institution would be responsible for payment errors resulting from 
erroneous information provided by investors.
    The proposed rule provided in Sec. 357.26(b)(1)(iii) that the 
designation of a financial institution by a security owner to receive 
payments from TREASURY DIRECT would constitute the appointment of the 
financial institution as agent for the owner for the receipt of 
payments. The crediting of a payment to the financial institution for 
deposit to the owner's account, in accordance with the owner's 
instructions, would discharge the United States of any further 
responsibility for the payment. One comment noted that, in contrast, the 
rule in 31 CFR 210.13 for Federal recurring payments is that the United 
States is not acquitted until the payment is credited to the account of 
the recipient on the books of a financial institution.
    Although, in principle, the same rules should apply to all 
Government payments, the proposed TREASURY DIRECT rule has been retained 
in the final regulations on the basis of the major differences in the 
procedures to be used in TREASURY DIRECT. Most significantly, the 
Treasury will not be securing any written verification (i.e., an 
enrollment form) from a financial institution as to the accuracy of the 
deposit account number and other payment information, as is now the 
practice in the case of payments under 31 CFR part 210. Under these 
circumstances, the Treasury cannot, in effect, guarantee that a payment 
will be credited by a financial institution to the correct account. It 
should also be noted that this rule on acquittance of the United States 
is consistent with the provision in Sec. 357.10(c) of the proposed 
regulations on TRADES. In practice, however, the Treasury plans to 
participate actively in seeking to locate and recover any payments that 
have been misdirected.
    (b)(2) Agreement of financial institution. The proposed rule 
provided, in Sec. 357.26(b)(2), that a financial institution which has 
agreed to accept payments under 31 CFR part 210 shall be deemed to have 
agreed to accept payments from TREASURY DIRECT. The rule further 
provided that an institution could not be designated to receive TREASURY 
DIRECT payments unless it had agreed to accept direct deposit payments 
under 31 CFR part 210.
    One financial institution commented that a receiving institution 
that has already agreed to accept part 210 payments should have the 
choice as to whether to accept payments from TREASURY DIRECT. The basis 
for this comment was the perception that the receipt of TREASURY DIRECT 
payments would require the implementation of special procedures by the 
financial institution and expose it to additional risks. As explained 
earlier, the Treasury has significantly modified the procedures and 
reduced the requirements imposed upon a financial institution in order 
to receive TREASURY DIRECT payments, and decreased as well the risks an 
institution will incur in the receipt of such payments. Thus, the 
proposed rule on eligibility of receiving institutions has been retained 
in the final rule in essentially the same form.
    Two other comments were made to the effect that the category of 
institutions receiving payments should be broadened. In deciding to 
authorize payments to all institutions receiving part 210 payments, the 
Treasury considered the fact that many more institutions are designated 
endpoints for Government (direct deposit) payments than for commercial 
ACH payments. In order to afford investors the widest choice of 
recipient institutions, all institutions that had agreed to accept part 
210 payments were designated as authorized recipients. Treasury has now 
broadened the rule further to also authorize those financial 
institutions that are willing to agree to accept part 210 payments in 
the future. This rule will permit investors to designate institutions 
that are not now receiving Government direct deposit payments as the 
recipients of their TREASURY DIRECT payments if the institutions make 
appropriate arrangements with the Federal Reserve Bank of their 
District.
    (b)(3) Pre-notification. A significant feature of the TREASURY 
DIRECT payment procedure will be the use of a pre-notification message 
sent to the receiving financial institution in advance of the first 
payment. This procedure, already in use for commercial ACH payments, 
alerts the institution that a payment will be made and provides an 
opportunity for verification of the accuracy of the account information.
    The proposed regulations provided that the financial institution 
would be required to reject the pre-notification message within four 
calendar days after the date of receipt if the information contained in 
the message did not agree with the records of the institution or if for 
any other reason the institution would not be able to credit the 
payment. The rules also stated that a failure to reject the message 
within the specified time period would be deemed an acceptance of the 
pre-notification and a warranty that the information in the message was 
accurate.
    Because there was some confusion over when the pre-notification 
message woud be sent, the final rules clarify, in paragraph (b)(3)(i), 
that in most cases, this will occur shortly after establishment of a 
TREASURY DIRECT account. The Treasury has under consideration a system 
change that would permit a second pre-notification to be sent closer to 
the time of the payment if the first

[[Page 405]]

payment is to occur a substantial length of time after account 
establishment.
    One of the items of information contained in a pre-notification 
message is the name the investor has indicated appears on the deposit 
account. Comments were received that existing procedures and software do 
not permit automatic verification of the account name. Although there is 
apparently some variation in practice, and some institutions undertake 
to verify the account name information manually, the Treasury has 
decided to drop the account name verification requirement in the final 
rules. This means that under paragraph (b)(3)(ii), a financial 
institution need only verify the account number and type designations on 
the pre-notification message. However, the Treasury urges institutions 
which are able to verify account names to do so and encourages the 
development of software that would have this capability.
    A number of comments urged that the four-day period provided for an 
institution to reject a pre-notification message be lengthened. After 
consideration of the various alternatives proposed, the Treasury has 
concluded that an eight-day period will meet the needs of most 
institutions. See paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of the final rule. In responding 
to a pre-notification message, an institution may use the NACHA's 
``notification of change'' procedure, standardized automated rejection 
codes, or any other similar standard procedure. Upon receipt of such 
notification, the Treasury will either make the necessary changes in the 
TREASURY DIRECT account or contact the investor, depending on the 
circumstances.
    One commentator objected to the warranty by the receiving 
institution as to the accuracy of the pre-notification information, 
particularly in view of the manual verification or changes in procedures 
that would be required, and the resulting possibility of error. As 
previously noted, the requirement to verify an account name has been 
eliminated. In addition, language has been added to make it clear that 
the verification is limited to the time of pre-notification. The 
Treasury is of the view that the warranty is a useful concept in 
encouraging institutions to respond to pre-notification messages and 
will benefit all concerned by increasing the likelihood that payments 
will be made accurately and to the appropriate party.
    (b)(5) Responsibility of financial institution. The proposed 
regulations provided, in Sec. 357.26(b)(5)(ii), that a financial 
institution that receives a TREASURY DIRECT payment on behalf of a 
customer would be required to promptly notify the Treasury when it has 
made a change in the status or ownership of the customer's deposit 
account, such as the deletion of the first-named owner of the security 
from the title of the account, or when the institution is on notice of 
the death or incompetency of the owner of the deposit account.
    Several financial institutions objected to this requirement on the 
grounds that it would be burdensome and would require the development of 
new procedures to monitor the changes in deposit accounts. Specifically, 
several institutions indicated they would be unable to relate the 
receipt of TREASURY DIRECT payments, which would be handled in a 
centralized area of the institution, to the changes being made in a 
deposit account, which are handled in another operational area of the 
institution. These institutions said they would not necessarily be aware 
of who is the first-named owner of the security in TREASURY DIRECT, and 
that more responsibility should be placed on the security owner in 
reporting changes.
    In response to these comments, the Treasury has narrowed the 
notification rule, in paragraph (b)(5)(ii) of the final rule, to require 
a financial institution to notify TREASURY DIRECT only in cases where it 
is on notice of the death or legal incapacity of an individual named on 
the deposit account, or where it is on notice of the dissolution of a 
corporation named in the deposit account. Upon receipt of notice by the 
area of the institution that receives credit payments, the institution 
will be required to return any TREASURY DIRECT payments received 
thereafter.
    (b)(6) Payments in error/duplicate payments. The proposed 
regulations, in Sec. 357.26(b)(6), set out rules describing the 
procedure that would be followed in cases where the Treasury or a 
Federal Reserve Bank has made a duplicate payment or a payment in error. 
First, the financial institution to which the payment was directed would 
be provided with a notice asking for the return of the amount of the 
payment remaining in the deposit account. If the financial institution 
were unable to return any part of the payment, it would be required to 
notify the Treasury or its Federal Reserve Bank, and provide the names 
and addresses of the persons who withdrew funds from the deposit account 
after the date of the duplicate payment or the payment in error. If the 
financial institution did not respond to the notice within 30 days, the 
financial institution's account at its Federal Reserve Bank could be 
debited in the amount of the duplicate or improper payment.
    Several institutions raised objections about various aspects of the 
above procedures. One stated that 30 days was an insufficient time to 
respond and urged conformity with the rules in 31 CFR part 210 
permitting a 60-day response time. Some objected to furnishing 
information about the persons who withdrew money from an account. 
Several objected in principle to the provision authorizing the debiting 
of their accounts. Several

[[Page 406]]

comments indicated that if a payment is returned by a financial 
institution using an automated payment reversal procedure, then only the 
full amount of the payment (not a partial amount) can be reversed.
    In the final rule, the Treasury has clarified the procedures. The 
requirement to provide the names of persons who withdrew funds from an 
account has been changed. In paragraph (b)(6)(i), financial institutions 
are asked to provide only such information as they have about the 
matter. The debiting of an institution's account at a Federal Reserve 
Bank is intended to be simply a last resort if the institution fails 
totally to respond to the notice of a duplicate payment or payment made 
in error. See paragraph (b)(6)(iii). The time provided for response to 
this notice has been lengthened to 60 days.
    The final rule has also been clarified in paragraph (b)(6)(i) to 
provide that the amount that should be returned is an amount equal to 
the payment. The Treasury reserves the right, however, to request the 
return by other than automated means of a partial amount of a payment 
made in error. It is anticipated that such a procedure would occur only 
if the notice of a payment made in error is not issued immediately after 
the payment was made.
    (d) Handling of payments by Federal Reserve Banks. Some of the 
comments raised a question about the liability of the Federal Reserve 
Banks in making payments. The proposed rule, in Sec. 357.26(d)(2), 
provided that each Federal Reserve Bank would be responsible only to the 
Department and would not be liable to any other party for any loss 
resulting from its handling of payments. This rule was taken from the 
existing regulations in 31 CFR part 210 (see Sec. 210.3(f)), and is 
simply a restatement of existing law.
    In making payments, the Federal Reserve Banks are acting in the 
capacity as fiscal agents of the United States, pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 
391. They are not acting in an individual (banking) capacity. If a 
Federal Reserve Bank misdirects a payment contrary to instructions 
provided by the investor, the United States, as principal, may remain 
liable to the investor for the payment. The United States could seek to 
recover any loss from its agent, the Fedeal Reserve Bank. However, 
because the proposed rule simply stated a legal conclusion and tended to 
create the impression that the rule was broader than intended, it has 
been omitted from the final regulations.

    For clarity, the warranties which accompany the use of a ``Signature 
guaranteed'' stamp have been set out.

                Appendix B to Part 357--TRADES Commentary

                              Introduction

    The adoption of regulations for the Treasury/Reserve Automated Debt 
Entry System (``TRADES'') is the culmination of a multi-year Treasury 
process of moving from issuing securities only in definitive (physical/
certificated/paper) form to issuing securities exclusively in book-entry 
form. The TRADES regulations provide the legal framework for all 
commercially-maintained Treasury book-entry securities. For a more 
detailed explanation of the procedural and legal development of book-
entry and the TRADES regulations, see the preamble to the rule proposed 
March 4, 1996 (61 FR 8420), as well as the earlier proposals cited 
therein 51 FR 8846 (March 14, 1986); 51 FR 43027 (November 28, 1986); 57 
FR 12244 (April 9, 1992).

                Comparison of TRADES and Treasury Direct

    A person may hold interests in Treasury book-entry securities either 
in TRADES 1 or TREASURY DIRECT. The following summarizes the 
major differences between the two systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In TRADES a Person's interest in a Treasury book-entry security 
is a Security Entitlement, as described in TRADES. A Participant's 
interest in a marketable Treasury book-entry security also is a Security 
Entitlement. A Participant's Security Entitlement is different than a 
Security Entitlement as described in Revised Article 8, with respect to 
the Participant's rights against the issuer. A non-Participant's 
Security Entitlement is described in Revised Article 8.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 407]]

    Persons holding Treasury book-entry securities in TRADES hold their 
interests in such securities in a tiered system of ownership accounts. 
In TRADES, Treasury, through its fiscal agents, the Federal Reserve 
Banks, recognizes the identity only of Participants (persons with a 
direct account relationship with a Federal Reserve Bank). While 
Participants may be beneficial owners of interests in Treasury book-
entry securities, there are many beneficial owners of such interests 
that are not Participants. Such beneficial owners hold their interests 
through one or more Securities Intermediaries such as banks, brokerage 
firms or securities clearing organizations.
    In TRADES, the rights of non-Participant beneficial owners may be 
exercised only through their Securities Intermediaries. Neither Treasury 
nor the Federal Reserve Banks have any obligation to a non-Participant 
beneficial owner of an interest in a Treasury book-entry security. Two 
examples illustrate this principle. First, except where a pledge has 
been recorded directly on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank pursuant 
to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), Federal Reserve Banks, as Treasury's fiscal 
agents, will act only on instructions of the Participant in whose 
Securities Account the Treasury book-entry security is maintained in 
recording transfers of an interest in a Treasury book-entry security. A 
beneficial owner of the interest that is a non-Participant has no 
ability to direct a transfer on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank. 
Second, Treasury discharges its payment obligation with respect to a 
Treasury book-entry security when payment is credited to a Participant's 
account or paid in accordance with the Participant's instructions. 
Neither Treasury nor a Federal Reserve Bank has any payment obligation 
to a non-Participant beneficial owner of an interest in a Treasury book-
entry security. A non-Participant beneficial owner receives its payment 
when its Securities Intermediary credits the owner's account.
    Persons holding Treasury book-entry securities in TREASURY DIRECT, 
on the other hand, hold their securities accounts on records maintained 
by Treasury through its fiscal agents, the Federal Reserve Banks. The 
primary characteristic of TREASURY DIRECT is a direct account 
relationship between the beneficial owner of a Treasury book-entry 
security and Treasury. In TREASURY DIRECT, Treasury discharges its 
payment obligation when payment is credited to the depository 
institution specified by the beneficial owner of the Treasury book-entry 
security, paid directly to the beneficial owner by check, or paid in 
accordance with the beneficial owner's instructions. Unlike TRADES, 
TREASURY DIRECT does not provide a mechanism for the exchange of cash to 
settle a secondary market transaction, nor are pledges of Treasury book-
entry securities held in TREASURY DIRECT generally recognized. 
Accordingly, TREASURY DIRECT is suited for persons who plan to hold 
their Treasury securities until maturity, and provides an alternative 
for investors who are concerned about holding securities through 
intermediaries and who do not wish to hold their interests in Treasury 
securities indirectly in TRADES.

                           Scope of Regulation

    Just as the scope of Revised Article 8 is limited,2 the 
scope of this regulation is limited. It is not a comprehensive 
codification of the law governing securities, transactions in securities 
or the law of contracts for the purchase or sale of securities. 
Similarly, it is not a codification of all laws that could affect a 
person's interest in a Treasury book-entry security. For example, state 
laws regarding divorce or intestate succession could well affect which 
persons have rights in the interest in a Treasury book-entry security. 
Moreover, the regulations deal with certain aspects of transactions in 
Treasury securities, such as perfection of a security interest and its 
effects and not other aspects, such as the contractual relationship 
between a debtor and its secured party, which are left to applicable law 
3. See the discussion under Sec. 357.10 of the Section-by-
Section Analysis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ U.C.C. Revised Article 8, Prefatory Note at 12.
    \3\ The regulations in 31 CFR 306.118(b), which are being supplanted 
by TRADES, state that ``applicable law'' covers how a transfer or pledge 
is ``effected'' as well as perfected. Except with respect to security 
interests marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank, TRADES does not 
address how a security interest in a Treasury book-entry security is 
created or what law governs the creation of a security interest. Section 
357.11(a) of TRADES, which establishes the choice of law for interests 
other than those covered by Sec. 357.10, addresses the choice of law 
with respect to the perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection, 
and priority of security interests, but does not address the law 
governing creation or attachment of a security interest. This is 
consistent with the scope and choice of law provisions of Revised 
Article 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                       Section-by-Section Analysis

                 Section 357.0  Dual book-entry systems.

    Section 357.0 sets forth that Treasury provides two systems for 
maintaining Treasury book-entry securities--TRADES and TREASURY DIRECT. 
Subpart A of part 357 of 31 CFR contains general information about 
TRADES and TREASURY DIRECT. Subpart B contains the TRADES regulations. 
Subpart C contains the TREASURY

[[Page 408]]

 DIRECT regulations. Subpart D contains miscellaneous provisions. Thus, 
in its totality, part 357 sets forth in one place the complete set of 
governing rules for Treasury securities issued in book-entry form.

                     Section 357.1  Effective date.

    Section 357.1 establishes the effective date for TRADES. TRADES 
applies to outstanding securities formerly governed by 31 CFR part 306, 
subpart O. Conforming changes to parts 306, 356, and 358 are being made 
to coincide with the publication of TRADES in final form. Consistent 
with the approach set forth in Revised Article 8 (see Sec. 8-603 and the 
official comment thereto), on and after the effective date these 
regulations will apply to all transactions, including transactions 
commenced prior to the effective date. Revised Article 8, in Section 8-
603, gave secured parties four months after the effective date to take 
action to continue the perfection of their security interests. TRADES, 
through its delayed effectiveness, provides a similar period. In TRADES, 
January 1, 1997, becomes the date by which such actions must be 
completed.
    The effective date for TRADES is January 1, 1997. While TRADES is 
based in large part on Revised Article 8 that has received widespread 
attention in the financial community and already has been adopted in 28 
states,\4\ Treasury has determined that TRADES will be effective on 
January 1, 1997, to ensure a smooth transition to TRADES. In making that 
determination, Treasury has taken into account the time required by 
other Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) to promulgate similar 
regulations for their securities. Such an effective date, when combined 
with TRADES having been published in proposed form with a 60-day comment 
period, should provide sufficient time for an orderly transition to the 
new TRADES rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ As of August 1, 1996, those states are: Alabama, Alaska, 
Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, 
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, 
Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, 
Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming. See discussion 
accompanying footnote 11.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                       Section 357.2  Definitions.

    Section 357.2 contains definitions for use in subparts B and C. 
While most of the definitions are straightforward, four terms--
Participant, Entitlement Holder, Security Entitlement and Securities 
Intermediary--are critical to an understanding of the proposed TRADES 
regulations.
    (a) Participant. A Participant is a person that has a securities 
account relationship in its name with a Federal Reserve Bank. 
Accordingly, the Federal Reserve Bank and Treasury know both the 
identity of the persons maintaining these accounts and the Treasury 
book-entry securities held in these accounts.
    (b) Securities Intermediary. Securities Intermediaries are persons 
(other than individuals, except as described below) that are in the 
business of holding interests in Treasury book-entry securities for 
others. Participants can be, and usually are, Securities Intermediaries.
    In addition, entities such as clearing corporations, banks, brokers 
and dealers can be Securities Intermediaries in a single chain of 
ownership of a Treasury security. An individual, unless registered as a 
broker or dealer under the federal securities laws, cannot be a 
Securities Intermediary. As an illustration of a possible chain of 
ownership, in the following chart, the Federal Reserve Bank, Participant 
and Broker-Dealer are all Securities Intermediaries.

 
 
 
 
                          Federal Reserve Bank
                                
                               Participant
                                
                              Broker-Dealer
                                
                            Individual Holder
 

    (c) Entitlement Holder. An Entitlement Holder is any person for whom 
a Securities Intermediary holds an interest in a Treasury book-entry 
security. In the above example Individual Holder, Broker-Dealer and 
Participant are all Entitlement Holders. Thus, a person can be both a 
Securities Intermediary and an Entitlement Holder. See also the 
commentary on ``Security Entitlement.''
    (d) Security Entitlement. A Security Entitlement is the interest 
that an Entitlement Holder has in a Treasury book-entry security. In the 
example, Participant, Broker-Dealer and Individual Holder all hold 
Security Entitlements. The rights and property interests associated with 
a Security Entitlement of a Participant held on the books of a Federal 
Reserve Bank (``Participant's Security Entitlement'') are, however, 
different from the rights and property interests associated with other 
Security Entitlements. As provided in Sec. 357.10(a), Federal law 
defines the scope and nature of a Participant's Security Entitlement. 
While TRADES is based in large part on Revised Article 8, the meaning of 
Security Entitlement under federal law is different than under Revised 
Article 8. For example, Participants have a direct claim against the 
United States for interest and principal even though, under state law, 
an Entitlement Holder would only have a claim against its Securities 
Intermediary for such payment. To the extent not inconsistent

[[Page 409]]

with this regulation, the scope and nature of a Security Entitlement of 
an Entitlement Holder below the level of a Participant, (Broker-dealer 
and Individual Holder in the example above), is defined by applicable 
state law, as determined pursuant to Sec. 357.11. It should also be 
noted that while a Participant's rights have Federal law components 
under Sec. 357.10(a), the nature of a Security Entitlement held by a 
lower tier intermediary on the books of a Participant is determined 
pursuant to applicable law as provided in Sec. 357.11.

   Section 357.10  Law governing the United States and Reserve Banks.

    Section 357.10(a) provides that the rights and obligations of the 
United States and the Federal Reserve Banks (with one exception detailed 
below), with respect to both the TRADES system and Treasury book-entry 
securities maintained in TRADES are governed solely and exclusively by 
Federal law. Thus, claims against the United States and Federal Reserve 
Banks of both Participants and all other persons with an interest (or 
claiming an interest) in a Treasury book-entry security maintained in 
TRADES are governed by Federal law. Federal law is defined to include 
TRADES, the offering circulars pursuant to which the Treasury securities 
are sold, the offering announcements and Federal Reserve Bank Operating 
Circulars.5 Prior to March 1, 1993, the terms of each 
offering of Treasury securities, except for Treasury bills were set 
forth in an offering circular published in the Federal 
Register.6 Since March 1, 1993, all Treasury book-entry 
securities have been offered pursuant to a uniform offering circular set 
forth at 31 CFR part 356.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ A ``Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular'' is defined in 
Sec. 357.2 as the publication issued by each Federal Reserve Bank that 
sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Reserve Bank 
maintains Book-entry Securities Accounts and transfers Book-entry 
Securities.
    \6\ Treasury bills were issued pursuant to one master offering 
circular (31 CFR part 349, removed, and replaced by 31 CFR part 356) 
effective March 1, 1993. (58 FR 412)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While TRADES is based in large measure on Revised Article 8, a 
fundamental principle of these regulations (and a divergence from 
Revised Article 8) is that the obligations of the issuer (the United 
States) and the Federal Reserve Banks, as well as all claims with 
respect to TRADES or a Treasury book-entry security against Treasury or 
a Federal Reserve Bank, are governed solely by Federal law. Thus, for 
example, those parts of Revised Article 8 that detail obligations of 
issuers (or their agents) of securities are not applicable to either the 
United States or Federal Reserve Banks.7 In addition, neither 
the United States nor Federal Reserve Banks have any obligations to 
persons holding their interests in a Treasury book-entry security at 
levels below the level of a Participant or to any other person claiming 
an interest in a Treasury book-entry security (with the limited 
exception set out in Sec. 357.12(c)(1)). Thus, there are no derivative 
rights against either the United States or the Federal Reserve Banks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ The regulations in subpart C of this part set out other 
obligations of the United States and the Federal Reserve Banks for 
securities held in TREASURY DIRECT. These regulations preempt applicable 
state law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In interpreting this section, it is important to note that the scope 
of TRADES, like that of Revised Article 8, is limited. Accordingly, the 
governing law set forth in Sec. 357.10(a) is applicable only to the 
matters set forth in Sec. 357.10(a). Other laws remain applicable and 
could affect the holders of book-entry securities.
    For example, the tax treatment of Securities Entitlements is outside 
the scope of TRADES and other law (the Federal income tax code) is 
applicable in determining such tax treatment. Similarly, nothing in 
Sec. 357.10(a) limits the applicability of other laws to matters such as 
whether the activities of Participants or Securities Intermediaries with 
respect to interests in Treasury book-entry securities are subject to 
banking or securities laws.
    While TRADES in Sec. 357.10(a) defines what law governs the contract 
between the United States, as issuer, and the holder of a Security 
Entitlement, it is not a complete statement of the contract law 
applicable to the United States or Federal Reserve Banks. For example, 
if a Participant obtains a discount window loan from a Federal Reserve 
Bank and agrees to pledge collateral, including Treasury book-entry 
securities, to the Federal Reserve Bank as security for the loan, 
Sec. 357.10(a) does not establish the law for determining the validity 
or enforceability of the contract or the law applicable to the creation 
and perfection of security interests in property that is not a Treasury 
book-entry security. Section 357.10(a) does provide the law applicable 
for how a security interest in Treasury book-entry securities is 
perfected, the priority of such interest and, if Sec. 357.12(c)(1) is 
applicable, how such security interest is created. Similarly, nothing in 
Sec. 357.10(a) affects the continuing applicability or enforceability of 
Federal Reserve Bank operating circulars such as the circular setting 
forth provisions regarding electronic access to services provided by 
Federal Reserve Banks and agreements executed in connection with such 
circulars.

[[Page 410]]

    The law applicable with respect to interests granted to a Federal 
Reserve Bank depends on the manner in which the security interest is 
granted.
    Where a security interest in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank is 
marked on the books of the Federal Reserve Bank under Section 
357.12(c)(1), Sec. 357.10(a) establishes the applicable law. A security 
interest in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank would be recorded on the 
Federal Reserve Bank's books where, for example, the Federal Reserve 
Bank made a discount window loan to a depository institution and any 
Treasury book-entry securities provided by the depository institution as 
collateral have been deposited to a pledge account on the books of the 
Federal Reserve Bank. For a borrowing depository institution that is not 
a Participant, the book-entry securities used as collateral generally 
would be deposited to the Federal Reserve Bank pledge account by the 
borrowing institution's Securities Intermediary. See Hypothetical 5.
    Section 357.10(b) sets forth law applicable with respect to security 
interests in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank that have not been marked 
on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank. A security interest in the 
Securities Entitlement of a Participant in favor of a Federal Reserve 
Bank that is not marked on the books of the Federal Reserve Bank is 
governed by the law of the state in which the head office of the Federal 
Reserve Bank is located. Such a security interest could arise, for 
example, where the delivery of book-entry securities to the securities 
account of the Participant results in an overdraft in the Participant's 
Funds Account. The extent to which the Federal Reserve Bank has an 
interest in the Participant's book-entry securities to secure the 
overdraft therefore would be determined under the law of the state in 
which the Reserve Bank's head office is located. If the State in which 
the head office of the Federal Reserve Bank is located has not adopted 
Revised Article 8, under Sec. 357.10(c) that State is deemed to have 
adopted Revised Article 8.
    In certain very limited circumstances, a Federal Reserve Bank also 
may have a security interest in the book-entry securities of a non-
Participant that is not marked on the books of the Federal Reserve Bank. 
Section 357.10(b) provides a separate rule for such a security interest, 
which would be governed by the law of the non-Participant's Securities 
Intermediary, as determined under Sec. 357.11. Under Sec. 357.11, the 
perfection, effect of perfection, and priority of a security interest 
created under such an agreement would be governed by the law of the 
Securities Intermediary's jurisdiction, as determined under 
Sec. 357.11(b). Under Sec. 357.11(d), if the jurisdiction specified in 
Sec. 357.11(b) has not adopted Revised Article 8, jurisdiction would be 
deemed to have adopted Revised Article 8.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ An interest in book-entry securities of a non-Participant that 
is not marked on the books of the Federal Reserve Bank, while uncommon, 
could arise where the Federal Reserve Bank lends to a non-Participant 
depository institution and enters into a triparty agreement with the 
depository institution and its Securities Intermediary rather than 
requiring the deposit of the book-entry securities in a pledge account 
on the books of the Federal Reserve Bank through an instruction given by 
the non-Participant depository institution to its Securities 
Intermediary.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For purposes of applying the state law chosen under the rules of 
Sec. 357.10(b), Federal Reserve Banks are treated as clearing 
corporations. As a result, a security interest in a Securities 
Entitlement of a Participant in favor of a Federal Reserve Bank under 
Sec. 357.12(c)(2) has the same priority as security interests granted to 
other clearing corporations under state law. This is consistent with the 
treatment accorded to Federal Reserve Banks generally under Revised 
Article 8.

             Section 357.11  Law governing other interests.

 (a) Law governing the rights and obligation of Participants and third 
parties. Section 357.11 is a choice of law rule. The substantive matters 
subject to this choice of law rule are set forth in Sec. 357.11(a). The 
  matters set forth in Sec. 357.11(a) are meant to be coextensive with 
 those matters covered by Revised Article 8 with respect to a person's 
interest in a Treasury book-entry security (other than those related to 
a person's relationship to Treasury or a Federal Reserve Bank which are 
  governed solely by federal law). For purposes of these choice of law 
            rules Participants are Securities Intermediaries.

    Section 357.11(b) adopts Revised Article 8's general choice of law 
rule. Section 357.11(c) sets forth a special choice of law rule with 
respect to security interests perfected automatically or by filing, 
which also is included in Revised Article 8. Generally, the law 
applicable to the Securities Intermediary will govern matters involving 
an interest in a book-entry security held through that intermediary. 
This approach is not followed with respect to perfection of security 
interests automatically or by filing. In those cases, the law of the 
jurisdiction in which the debtor is located is the governing law. Since 
filing systems are based on the location of the debtor, this approach 
should reduce uncertainty and preserve the normal practice of

[[Page 411]]

searching records based on the debtor's location.\9\ The language 
``person creating a security interest'' is used in lieu of the term 
``debtor'' in this provision to avoid any confusion. The word ``debtor'' 
has two meanings in the Uniform Commercial Code and the expression 
``person creating a security interest'' provides clarity with respect to 
who is covered by this section. The term does not refer to a creditor. 
The language ``is located'' is intended to conform to its meaning under 
applicable law, as it may be amended from time to time. See, e.g., 
U.C.C. section 9-103(3)(d). Section 357.11(d) provides for the 
application of Revised Article 8 if the choice of law analysis required 
by Sec. 357.11(b) results in the choice of the law of a State that has 
not yet adopted Revised Article 8. As noted elsewhere, in such a 
situation, the State's law is viewed as if it had adopted Revised 
Article 8. This section also provides that, for purposes of applying 
state law, the Federal Reserve Banks are clearing corporations and 
Participants' interests in book-entry securities are Security 
Entitlements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The substantive effect of filing is limited and applies only in 
states which have adopted Revised Article 8. Since the effect of filing 
is a unique state law matter, in this one area, Treasury has determined 
that possible lack of uniformity does not justify altering state law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 (b) Limited scope of Federal preemption. In an earlier TRADES proposal 
Treasury contemplated adopting a comprehensive regulation governing the 
rights of all persons in Treasury book-entry securities held in TRADES. 
 Such an approach was proposed because Treasury believed that a uniform 
   rule was necessary to preserve the efficiency and liquidity of the 
market for Treasury securities--the most liquid and efficient market in 
 the world. Treasury believed then, and believes now, that the material 
  rights of a holder in the United States of an interest in a Treasury 
 security should not vary solely by virtue of such holder's geographic 
 location or the location of the financial institution through which it 
 holds its interest in Treasury securities. In light of Revised Article 
     8, Treasury has determined that it is possible to achieve this 
     uniformity without developing an independent system of Federal 
    commercial law.\10\ The questions inherent in a tiered system of 
 ownership have been analyzed, and, in Treasury's view, satisfactorily 
                     addressed by Revised Article 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ As noted previously, the substantive scope of this regulation 
is limited.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As of August 1, 1996, 28 states have adopted Revised Article 8 and 
Treasury understands that it will soon be adopted in additional states. 
As with all uniform laws, the adoption process takes several years. In 
order to assure uniformity, in light of the unavoidable delays in the 
state-by-state adoption process of Revised Article 8, Treasury is 
promulgating regulations with a limited form of preemption. As provided 
in both Secs. 357.10(c) and 357.11(d), if the choice of law rules set 
forth in TRADES would lead to the application of the law of a State that 
has not yet adopted Revised Article 8, TRADES will apply Revised Article 
8 (with conforming and miscellaneous amendments to other Articles) in 
the form approved by the ALI and NCCUSL. Treasury expects that these 
provisions will be operative only during the state-by-state adoption 
process and would plan to amend TRADES to delete reference to these 
provisions once the adoption process has been completed.
    While Revised Article 8 is defined to mean the official text of 
Article 8 as approved by the ALI and NCCUSL, Treasury recognizes that 
states may make minor changes in that text when adopting Article 8. 
Treasury has concluded that minor changes should not prevent Revised 
Article 8, as adopted by a state, from being the appropriate law. In 
other words, if a state passes a version of Article 8 that is 
substantially identical to Revised Article 8, reference to Revised 
Article 8 (as defined) would no longer be required. Treasury has 
determined that the versions of Article 8 passed by 30 \11\ states that 
have enacted Article 8 meet this standard. Accordingly, Secs. 357.10(c) 
and 357.11(d) would not be applicable if the choice of law provisions of 
TRADES directed a person to one of those states. As additional states 
adopt Revised Article 8, Treasury will provide notice in the Federal 
Register as to whether the enactments are ``substantially identical'' to 
the uniform version for purposes of these regulations and on an annual 
basis, the Commentary will be amended to reflect subsequent enactments. 
This approach represents a significantly reduced form of preemption of 
state law from former versions of TRADES and preserves Treasury's 
preeminent interest in a uniform system of rules applicable to all 
holders of interests in Treasury book-entry securities.

     Section 357.12  Obtaining an interest in a book-entry security.

 (a) Creation of a Participant's Security Entitlement. A Participant's 
interest in a Treasury book-entry security is a Securities Entitlement. 
 Section 357.12(a) provides that a Participant's Securities Entitlement 
 is created when a Federal Reserve Bank indicates by book entry that a 
  Book-entry Security has been credited to a Participant's Securities 
  Account. Instead of the concept of initial credit and transfer of a 
Treasury book-entry security, as set forth in the existing regulations, 
  this proposal focuses on the creation of a Participant's Securities 
  Entitlement and, in this way, is similar to Section 8-501 of Revised 
                               Article 8.

    The regulation focuses on the creation of a Participant's Security 
Entitlement because Security Entitlement is the term used to describe 
the Participant's interest in a Treasury book-entry security. Once a 
Participant obtains that interest, the regulation sets forth what that 
interest is. Thus, as provided in Sec. 357.10, federal law describes a 
Participant's rights against the United States and the Federal Reserve 
Bank where it maintains its Securities Account. To the extent not 
inconsistent with Sec. 357.10, Sec. 357.11 describes the applicable law 
to determine Participants' rights and obligations with respect to all 
other persons. Under these regulations, Participants can still transfer 
their interests in a Treasury book-entry security as they did before--by 
issuing a Transfer Message to the Federal Reserve Bank where they hold 
such interest. Transfer of interests between Participants can occur by a 
Participant holding such interest issuing a Transfer Message. As a 
result of such message, the Federal Reserve Bank will make a book entry 
in favor of the receiving Participant (thereby creating a Security 
Entitlement in favor of such Participant) and also will make a book 
entry deleting the initiator Participant's interest in such Treasury 
book-entry security (thereby eliminating that Participant's Security 
Entitlement). In addition, if authorized under applicable state law, 
Participants may enter into agreements with other Participants that, as 
to the Participants, constitute a transfer. Such action is without 
effect to either the United States or a Federal Reserve Bank.

(b) Creation and priority of a Security Interest. (i) Security Interests 
    of the United States. Section 357.12(b) provides that a security 
 interest in favor of the United States has priority over the interests 
of any other person in a Treasury book-entry security. The United States 
   obtains security interests in Treasury securities as collateral to 
 secure funds in a variety of situations such as Treasury Tax and Loan 
  accounts; government agency funds or funds under the control of the 
Federal Courts held at financial institutions; and securities pledged in 
  lieu of surety by contractors and others. The priority provided the 
   United States in these situations is consistent with existing law.

    In addition, Federal Reserve Banks do recognize on their books and 
records security interests in favor of the United States. In that 
situation, the Federal Reserve Bank will not transfer the security 
without the permission of the United States. This section provides that 
a Federal Reserve Bank may rely exclusively on the directions of an 
authorized representative of the United States to transfer a security 
and is protected in so relying. Ordinarily, an authorized representative 
of the United States would take such action under circumstances such as 
the default or insolvency of the pledgor.
    (ii) Security Interests on the books of a Reserve Bank. Where 
required by Federal law or regulation or pursuant to a specific 
agreement with a Federal Reserve Bank, a security interest in favor of a 
Federal Reserve Bank or other person may be created or perfected by a 
Federal Reserve Bank marking its books to record the security interest 
under Sec. 357.12(c)(1). An example of a security interest that is 
marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank would be the pledge in 
favor of a Federal Reserve Bank of a Participant's book-entry securities 
as collateral for a discount window loan.\12\ For limited categories of 
pledges, Federal Reserve Banks may agree to record a security interest 
in favor of a third party on their books. For example, in some 
circumstances a Federal Reserve Bank may permit the establishment of

[[Page 413]]

a pledge account to hold book-entry securities pledged to governmental 
entities other than the United States government. It is important to 
note that there is no obligation for either Treasury or a Federal 
Reserve Bank to agree to record a security interest on the books of a 
Federal Reserve Bank, except as required by Federal law or regulation. 
If they do so, the security interest is perfected when the Federal 
Reserve Bank records a security interest on its books. In addition, the 
security interest has priority over all other interests in the Treasury 
book-entry security except an interest of the United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ Book-entry securities pledged by a non-Participant to a Federal 
Reserve Bank generally would be deposited by the non-Participant's 
Securities Intermediary to a pledge account at the Federal Reserve Bank, 
and therefore also would be marked on the books of the Federal Reserve 
Bank. See the discussion under D. (Sec. 357.10).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (iii) Other Security Interests. As provided in Sec. 357.12(c)(2), a 
security interest in a book-entry security may be perfected by any 
method available under applicable state law, as determined under 
Sec. 357.10(b) or Sec. 357.11.\13\ The perfection and priority of such 
interests shall be governed by applicable law. Security interests under 
this section may include security interests in favor of a Federal 
Reserve Bank, such as a clearing lien or pledge by a non-participant of 
book-entry securities held through a Securities Intermediary where the 
securities have not been deposited to a Federal Reserve Bank pledge 
account. Consistent with Revised Article 8, a Federal Reserve Bank would 
be treated as a clearing corporation under the applicable state law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ Under both of these sections, if the state has not yet adopted 
Revised Article 8, the applicable law would be that state's law as it 
would be amended by Revised Article 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If a Person perfects a security interest pursuant to 
Sec. 357.12(c)(2), obligations of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve 
Banks with respect to that security interest are limited. Specifically, 
unless special arrangements are agreed to by the United States or a 
Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), neither the Federal 
Reserve Bank nor the United States will recognize the interests of any 
person other than the person in whose securities account the interest in 
a Treasury book-entry security is maintained. This does not mean that 
such a security interest is invalid. Rather, it means that the 
creditor's recourse will be solely against the debtor Participant or 
other third party.

   Section 357.13  Rights and obligations of Treasury and the Reserve 
                                 Banks.

    (a) Adverse claims. Section 357.13(a) sets forth the general rule 
that, with limited exceptions, Treasury and the Federal Reserve Banks 
will recognize only the interest of a Participant in a Treasury book-
entry security in whose Securities Account such interest is maintained.
    As noted previously, Treasury book-entry securities maintained in 
TRADES are held in a tiered system of ownership. The records of a 
Federal Reserve Bank reflect only the ownership at the top tier. 
Institutions maintaining a Securities Account with a Federal Reserve 
Bank frequently will hold interests in Treasury book-entry securities 
for their customers (which can include broker-dealers and other 
Securities Intermediaries) and in certain cases those customers will 
hold interests in securities for their customers. Accordingly, neither 
Treasury nor a Federal Reserve Bank will know the identity or recognize 
a claim of a Participant's customer if that customer were to present it 
to Treasury or a Federal Reserve Bank.
    In addition, except in the limited case where a security interest is 
marked on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to 
Sec. 357.12(c)(1), neither the Treasury nor a Federal Reserve Bank will 
recognize the claims of any other person asserting a claim in a Treasury 
book-entry security. Persons at levels below the Participant level must 
present their claims to their Securities Intermediary.
    (b) Payment obligations. Section 357.13(b) contains a corollary to 
the rule set forth in Sec. 357.13(a). This section provides that 
Treasury discharges its payment responsibility with respect to a 
security that it has issued when a Federal Reserve Bank credits the 
funds account of a Participant with amounts due on that security or 
makes payment in some other manner specified by the Participant. This is 
consistent with existing law and the first TRADES 
proposal.\14\ In Revised Article 8, the issuer discharges its 
obligations when it makes payment to an owner registered on its books. 
Under common commercial practice, the registered owner in the indirect 
system may be a clearing corporation or the clearing corporation's 
nominee. Although the Federal Reserve Banks are treated as clearing 
corporations under both Revised Article 8 and TRADES, Treasury remains 
liable until payment is made to, or in accordance with the instructions 
of, a Participant. Section 357.13(b)(2) establishes the mechanism of how 
Treasury book-entry securities are paid at maturity. It is intended to 
cover a variety of procedures, including where the proceeds of pledged 
securities are credited to a suspense account pending substitution or 
release. This paragraph makes clear that the payment takes place 
automatically and that, unlike with physical certificates, there is no 
act of presentment required by the Participant.

               Section 357.14  Authority of Reserve Banks.

    Section 357.14 provides that Federal Reserve Banks are authorized, 
as fiscal agents of Treasury, to operate the commercial book-entry 
system for Treasury.

[[Page 414]]

                        Section 357.44  Notices.

    Section 357.44 contains a revised version of a provision that 
appeared in earlier TRADES proposals. Similar to the rule in Revised 
Article 8 (see section 8-112), it provides where certain legal process 
should be directed. While providing instructions on where notice should 
be directed, it makes clear that the regulations do not establish 
whether a Federal Reserve Bank is required to honor any such order or 
notice.

                            J.  Hypotheticals

 
 
 
HYPOTHETICAL 1
 
                                TREASURY
 
                          FEDERAL RESERVE BANK

                                 DEALER
                                
                                INVESTOR
 

    The first hypothetical is designed to show what law applies at 
different levels of the tiered book-entry system. TRADES provides that 
federal law, and only federal law (defined in Sec. 357.10(a)), governs 
the rights and obligations of the United States and the Federal Reserve 
Banks (except for those matters involving Federal Reserve Banks set 
forth in Sec. 357.10(b)). Thus, for example, Treasury discharges its 
payment obligations with respect to a security it has issued in the 
manner described in Sec. 357.13(b). Federal law both defines the payment 
obligation and describes how Treasury fulfills that obligation. Those 
portions of Revised Article 8 dealing with issuer obligations are not 
applicable to Treasury or the Federal Reserve Banks.15 
Similarly, with certain limited exceptions as set forth in 
Sec. 357.12(c)(1), Treasury and the Federal Reserve Banks will recognize 
only the interest of a Participant in a Treasury book-entry security in 
whose Security Account the interest is maintained. Accordingly, as a 
matter of federal law, neither Treasury nor a Federal Reserve Bank will 
recognize any claim by Dealer or Investor.16
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ As provided in Sec. 357.14, Federal Reserve Banks, among other 
things, effect transfers of book-entry securities between Participants' 
Security Accounts.
    \16\ One comment questioned whether similar language in the March 4, 
1996 release implied that, under Revised Article 8, in the above example 
Investor could have a claim against Participant. No such implication was 
intended. The only point of the language is to make it clear that 
Federal, not state, law governs the rights and obligations of Treasury 
and the Federal Reserve Banks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the hypothetical above, as between Participant and Dealer, 
Participant is the Securities Intermediary. With respect to the matters 
set forth in Sec. 357.11(a), the law of the Securities Intermediary's 
jurisdiction governs. Thus, with respect to the matters in 
Sec. 357.11(a), the law of Participant's jurisdiction applies as between 
Participant and Dealer.17 If Participant's jurisdiction, as 
determined under Sec. 357.11(b), has not adopted Revised Article 8, the 
law of Participant's jurisdiction, as it would be amended by Revised 
Article 8, applies. Similarly, as between Dealer and Investor, Dealer is 
a Securities Intermediary, with respect to the matters in 
Sec. 357.11(a), the law of Dealer's jurisdiction applies as between 
Dealer and Investor. If Dealer's jurisdiction has not adopted Revised 
Article 8, the law of Dealer's jurisdiction, as it would be amended by 
Article 8, applies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ As described in the March 4 Release, the scope of TRADES is 
limited. As a general rule, if a matter is not covered in 
Sec. 357.11(a), TRADES is not applicable. One comment questioned whether 
TRADES covered the creation and attachment of a security interest. The 
omission of creation and attachment in Sec. 357.11(a) is intentional.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

HYPOTHETICAL 2
    Assume that Dealer A sells its interest in a Treasury book-entry 
security to Dealer B. The transaction likely would take the following 
form. Dealer A will instruct Participant A to transfer its interest in a 
Treasury security to Participant B against cash payment. Dealer B will 
instruct Participant B to transfer cash to Participant A against 
delivery of an interest in the specified securities. Participant A will 
instruct the Federal Reserve Bank to transfer its interest in the 
Treasury security to Participant B against simultaneous credit of cash. 
The Federal Reserve Bank will debit Participant A's security account and 
credit Participant B's security account and simultaneously credit 
Participant A's cash account and debit Participant B's cash account. 
Participant A will mark its books to show that it has debited Dealer A's 
securities account and credited Dealer A's cash account. Participant B 
will mark its books to show the Security Entitlement in the Treasury 
security in favor of Dealer B and a debit against Dealer B's cash 
account. Federal law, set forth in Sec. 357.12(a) provides that 
Participant B acquires its interest in the Treasury book-entry security 
when the Federal Reserve Bank indicates by book-entry that the interest 
in the security has been credited to Participant B's Securities Account. 
Pursuant to Sec. 357.11(a), but subject to Sec. 357.11(d), Participant 
B's jurisdiction governs Dealer B's acquisition of a Securities 
Entitlement from Participant B.

                               PARTICIPANT
 

    Assume Participant wishes to obtain a loan from Federal Reserve Bank 
and, as part of the transaction, will grant Federal Reserve Bank a 
security interest in its Securities Entitlement with respect to Treasury 
book-entry securities. The transaction can be accomplished in one of two 
ways. Pursuant to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), the Federal Reserve Bank can mark 
its books to reflect the security interest. As a matter of federal law, 
that action creates and perfects the Federal Reserve Bank's security 
interest and grants the Federal Reserve Bank priority over all other 
claimants (other than the United States pursuant to 
Sec. 357.12(b)).18 A second method for completing the 
transaction, as set forth in Sec. 357.12(c)(2), would be to take 
whatever actions are authorized by applicable law. In that case, 
applicable law is the law of the jurisdiction of the head office of the 
Federal Reserve Bank. If that jurisdiction had adopted Revised Article 
8, it would be the law of that jurisdiction. If that jurisdiction had 
not adopted Revised Article 8, it would be the law of that jurisdiction 
as if the jurisdiction had adopted Revised Article 8. Under Revised 
Article 8, the Federal Reserve Bank's interest would be that of a 
clearing corporation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ In certain limited circumstances, a Federal Reserve Bank may 
enter into an agreement under which it agrees to record on its books an 
interest in Participant's book-entry securities in favor of a non-
Participant, such as a governmental entity. Under these circumstances, 
the non-Participant would have a perfected security interest with 
priority over other claimants (other than the United States under 
Sec. 357.12(b)). It should be noted that, as set forth in 
Sec. 357.12(c)(1), there is no requirement that either the United States 
or a Federal Reserve Bank agree to creation and perfection of a security 
interest in this way, except as provided in Sec. 357.12(c)(1).

    Assume that Participant A wishes to borrow from Participant B and 
grant Participant B a security interest in its Security Entitlement in 
Treasury book-entry securities. As provided in Sec. 357.12(c)(2), the 
transaction would be completed pursuant to applicable law determined in 
accordance with 357.11. Although such an interest could be recorded on 
the books of a Federal Reserve Bank under Sec. 357.12(c)(1), Federal 
Reserve Banks generally do not mark their books to record this type of 
security interest for Participants.

                                 BANK A
 

    Assume that Bank A wishes to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank 
and will pledge its interest in Treasury book-entry securities held at 
Dealer A to collateralize that loan. The transaction could be 
accomplished in two ways. Pursuant to Sec. 357.12(c)(1), the interest 
could be created and perfected on the books of a Federal Reserve Bank. 
Such a transaction would take place in the following fashion. Bank A 
could have Dealer A instruct Participant A to deposit securities to a 
pledge account specified by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Federal 
Reserve Bank likely would create an account on its books and specify 
that account to Bank A as the account to receive Bank A's interest in 
Treasury book-entry securities. Participant A, upon receiving Dealer A's 
instructions, would then instruct the Federal Reserve Bank to debit its 
account at the Federal Reserve Bank and credit the account created by 
the Federal Reserve Bank. The second way the transaction could take 
place is by any method permitted by the law of Dealer A's (Bank A's 
Securities Intermediary) jurisdiction. This could involve a tri-party 
agreement among the Federal Reserve Bank, Dealer A, and Bank A. As set 
forth in Sec. 357.11(b)(1), that agreement likely would specify which 
jurisdiction's law is to govern the transaction and could specify that 
such choice of law supersedes any other choice of law agreement 
previously entered into by Dealer A and Bank A. If Dealer A's 
jurisdiction has not adopted Revised Article 8, the applicable law would 
be the law of Dealer A's jurisdiction as it would be amended by Revised

Sec. 358.0  Applicability.

    (a) These regulations apply to the conversion of United States 
Treasury detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora to book-entry form. 
These instruments are accepted from depository institutions for 
conversion under the Coupons Under Book Entry Safekeeping program 
(CUBES) and Bearer Corpora Conversion System (BECCS) program during 
specified time periods. The Department of the Treasury (Department or 
Treasury) will determine the time periods during which detached bearer 
coupons and bearer corpora will be accepted for conversion into book-
entry form, and the fees applicable to conversion. The time periods and 
fees will be announced in the Federal Register no less than 30 calendar 
days prior to the date such instruments may be presented. Presentment 
shall be to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in accordance with a 
schedule provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
    (b) For coupons converted after the effective date of this rule, 
these regulations supersede the terms and conditions governing CUBES set 
forth in the written ``Agreements to the Terms and Conditions Governing 
CUBES'' signed by those depository institutions that previously 
participated in the CUBES program.
    (c) Depository institutions that submit detached bearer coupons and 
bearer corpora are deemed to agree to the terms and conditions set forth 
in this part and any other requirements that may be prescribed by the 
Department or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.



Sec. 358.1  Definitions.

    In this part, unless the context indicates otherwise:
    BECCS refers to the Treasury's Bearer Corpora Conversion System. A 
BECCS security refers to a United States Treasury definitive bearer bond 
held in BECCS.
    Callable refers to a United States Treasury bond subject to call, at 
the option of the Secretary, before maturity in accordance with the 
terms and conditions of its offering. Coupons associated with a callable 
bond that are due after the date upon which the bond is subject to call 
are callable coupons.
    Corpus (plural corpora) refers to the principal portion of a United 
States Treasury definitive bearer bond.
    Coupon refers to a definitive bearer interest instrument associated 
with a United States Treasury definitive bearer bond.
    CUBES refers to the Treasury's Coupons Under Book-Entry Safekeeping 
program. A CUBES security is a definitive coupon detached from a United 
States Treasury bond and held in CUBES.
    Depository institution means an entity described in section 19(b) of 
the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 461(b)).
    Federal Reserve Bank or Reserve Bank means a Federal Reserve Bank or 
Branch.
    Non-callable refers to a United States Treasury bond not subject to 
call before maturity. Non-callable coupons

[[Page 417]]

are coupons associated with a non-callable bond, and coupons associated 
with a callable bond that are due on or before the date upon which the 
callable bond is subject to call.
    Non-transferable means that the ownership of a security held in 
BECCS or CUBES may not be transferred, pursuant to the provisions of 
section 358.4 of this part.
    Transferable means that the ownership of a security held in BECCS or 
CUBES may be transferred, pursuant to the provisions of Sec. 358.4 of 
this part.



Sec. 358.2  Governing regulations.

    CUBES and BECCS securities are deemed to be securities for purposes 
of, and upon their conversion to book-entry are governed by, subparts A, 
B, and D of part 357 of this chapter. Notwithstanding the provisions of 
part 357 of this chapter, certain CUBES and BECCS securities are non-
transferable, pursuant to Sec. 358.4 of this part.



Sec. 358.3  Securities not eligible for conversion.

    (a) Detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora that are submitted 
within 30 days of their maturity date or, if the call provision has been 
invoked, within 30 days of their call date, will not be accepted for 
conversion.
    (b) Bearer corpora with a maturity date on or before November 15, 
1998, will not be accepted for conversion.



Sec. 358.4  Transferability.

    In order for a callable corpus to be eligible for conversion to a 
transferable BECCS security all associated callable coupons must be 
submitted with the corpus. These callable coupons will be linked with 
the corpus within BECCS when converted. Once the coupons are linked to 
the corpus, they may not be separately transferred. If all of the 
callable coupons associated with the corpus are not submitted with the 
corpus, the corpus will be converted to a non-transferable BECCS 
security, and the remaining callable coupons submitted with the corpus 
will be converted to individual non-transferable CUBES securities. A 
corpus that is not subject to call will be converted to a transferable 
BECCS security. Non-callable coupons will be converted to transferable 
CUBES securities.



Sec. 358.5  Submissions of detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora.

    (a) Detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora must be submitted to 
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in accordance with Federal Reserve 
Bank of New York procedures and must be accompanied by an approved form, 
executed by an authorized officer of the submitting depository 
institution.
    (b) Until verified by the Department, submitted detached bearer 
coupons and bearer corpora will be subject to rejection or adjustment.



Sec. 358.6  Delivery of detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora.

    The depository institution shall bear the expense and assume the 
risk of loss associated with the delivery of the detached bearer coupons 
and bearer corpora to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The United 
States shall bear the expense and assume the risk of loss associated 
with the delivery of the submitted detached bearer coupons and bearer 
corpora between the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Department. 
The depository institution shall bear the expense and assume the risk of 
loss associated with the delivery of any detached bearer coupons and 
bearer corpora that are returned to the depository institution.



Sec. 358.7  Fees for conversion transactions.

    The depository institution will pay a fee for each CUBES and BECCS 
conversion transaction processed. The fees for conversion transactions 
will be published in the Federal Register prior to the start of the 
initial conversion period. A corpus subject to call that is submitted 
with all of its associated callable coupons will be considered a single 
conversion transaction and will be charged a single fee. If one or more 
of the associated callable coupons are not submitted with the corpus, 
the conversion of each callable coupon submitted and the corpus will be 
considered a separate conversion transaction and will be charged a 
separate fee. Each non-callable coupon submitted

[[Page 418]]

will be considered a separate conversion transaction and will be charged 
a separate fee. The fee for any conversion transaction that is rejected 
by the Department for any reason is non-refundable.



Sec. 358.8  Crediting of amounts less than one dollar.

    Upon the conversion of coupons to CUBES, amounts of less than one 
dollar in the aggregate per CUBES CUSIP will not be credited to the 
account of the depository institution.



Sec. 358.9  Authority of depository institution.

    (a) Submission of detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora to the 
Federal Reserve Bank of New York for conversion to book-entry accounts 
under the CUBES and BECCS programs constitutes a representation by the 
depository institution that it has authority to convert the coupons and 
corpora to book-entry form.
    (b) Neither the Department nor the Federal Reserve Bank of New York 
shall be liable if the depository institution has no authority to 
convert the detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora to book-entry 
form or to take other actions in respect to book-entry accounts in CUBES 
and BECCS.
    (c) Neither the Department nor the Federal Reserve Bank of New York 
shall be liable for any loss incurred by the depository institution 
which may result from the failure of the depository institution to 
properly follow the procedures provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of 
New York.



Sec. 358.10  Adjustments to or rejection of securities.

    In the event that the Department makes an adjustment to or rejects 
all or part of the submitted securities, the Federal Reserve Bank of New 
York will instruct the depository institution to transfer CUBES or BECCS 
securities of the same payment date and face value from the depository 
institution's account to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. If no 
such CUBES or BECCS securities exist in the depository institution's 
account, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will instruct the 
depository institution as to how an adjustment will be made. In the 
event that the depository institution fails to comply with the 
instructions of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York within five (5) 
business days of receipt of the instructions, the Federal Reserve Bank 
of New York reserves the right to debit the master account of the 
depository institution for the face value of the rejected detached 
bearer coupons and bearer corpora. By the submission of the detached 
bearer coupons and bearer corpora, the depository institution is deemed 
to agree to this debit.



Sec. 358.11  Audit and verification of securities.

    After processing and initial verification, the Federal Reserve Bank 
of New York will credit the securities accepted to the depository 
institution's book-entry account, establishing a securities entitlement 
in TRADES pursuant to 31 CFR part 357 subpart B. Final verification by 
the Department will be accomplished within ten (10) business days of 
receipt of the detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora at the 
Department. The depository institution shall not trade in the securities 
prior to final verification. If at any time after this ten (10) day 
period the Department determines that the security was improperly 
credited to the CUBES or BECCS account of the depository institution, 
such as in the case of a previously undetected counterfeit security, the 
Department reserves the right to adjust the CUBES or BECCS account.



Sec. 358.12  Separate maintenance of accounts.

    CUBES and BECCS accounts will be maintained separately from accounts 
maintained in Treasury's STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest 
and Principal of Securities) program.



Sec. 358.13  Processing against master accounts.

    The depository institution agrees that all charges associated with 
its CUBES and BECCS accounts, including the conversion fee, will be 
processed against its master account on the books of a Federal Reserve 
Bank.

[[Page 419]]



Sec. 358.14  Program prohibitions.

    Once detached bearer coupons and bearer corpora have been converted 
to book-entry form, reconversion to physical form is prohibited. The 
reconstitution of a BECCS security with CUBES securities or any 
combination of Treasury obligations is prohibited.



Sec. 358.15  Authority of Federal Reserve Banks.

    The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is hereby authorized as fiscal 
agent of the United States to perform functions with respect to this 
part.



Sec. 358.16  Limitation of liability.

    Except as otherwise provided by regulation, circular, or written 
agreement, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shall be liable in 
connection with any action taken or omission by it only for its failure 
to exercise ordinary care. In no event shall the Federal Reserve Bank of 
New York or the Department have or assume any responsibility to any 
party except the sending and receiving depository institutions involved 
in a CUBES or BECCS transaction. In no event shall the Federal Reserve 
Bank of New York or the Department assume any responsibility, in 
connection with a CUBES or BECCS transaction, for the insolvency, 
neglect, misconduct, mistake or default of another bank or person, 
including the immediate participants.



Sec. 358.17  Indemnification.

    The submitting depository institution shall indemnify the United 
States against any loss which may occur as a result of the conversion of 
a bearer corpus missing one or more associated callable coupons.



Sec. 358.18  Waiver of regulations.

    The Secretary of the Treasury reserves the right, in the Secretary's 
discretion, to waive or modify any provision(s) of these regulations in 
any particular case or class of cases for the convenience of the United 
States or in order to relieve any person(s) of unnecessary hardship, if 
such action is not inconsistent with law, does not impair any existing 
rights, and the Secretary is satisfied that such action will not subject 
the United States to any substantial expense or liability.



Sec. 358.19  Supplements, amendments or revisions.

    The Secretary may, at any time, prescribe additional supplemental, 
amendatory or revised regulations with respect to CUBES and BECCS.

Sec. 361.1  Scope of regulations.

    This part governs the reporting of loss or destruction of, or damage

replacement under section 3 of the Act (40 U.S.C. 723) by executive 
departments, independent establishments, agencies, wholly owned 
corporations, officers and employees of the United States, and Federal 
Reserve banks when acting on behalf of the United States or agencies 
thereof (hereafter consignors). Failure by any consignor or agent or 
employee thereof to comply with these regulations may delay recoveries, 
preclude reimbursement from the fund for the payment of Government 
losses in shipment (hereafter the Fund) or other relief under the Act, 
and render the consignor responsible for any loss occurring through such 
failure.



Sec. 361.2  Definitions.

    (a) The term valuables means any articles or things or 
representatives of

[[Page 420]]

value in which the United States has any interest, or in connection with

which have been declared to be valuables by the Secretary of the 
Treasury (hereafter Secretary) pursuant to the Act, as listed in 
Sec. 362.1 of this title.
    (b) The term shipment means the transportation, or the effecting of

or duplication or the expenses incident thereto.
    (d) The term carrier means any person, corporation, or other entity 
which effectuates the shipment for consignors of valuables.



Sec. 361.3  Shipping procedure.

    Shipments of valuables shall be made so as to provide the greatest

finally prepared for delivery in the presence of the two employees and 
before leaving their immediate control. If strict compliance herewith is 
impossible or impracticable, administrative officers of the consignor 
shall make adequate provision, through the establishment of accounting 
controls or otherwise, for the maintenance of basic records which will 
enable them to prove, to the satisfaction of the Secretary, the extent

The record shall include:
    (1) The name and address of the consignee designated to receive the

coupons attached to such securities at the time of shipment);
    (3) The face or par value of the shipment in the case of securities, 
currency, etc., or the replacement value in the case of other valuables;
    (4) The registry number or the lock and rotary numbers, if any,

    (7) A record of the signatures of the consignor's employees who 
verified the contents of the package and witnessed its sealing;
    (8) A record of the signature(s) of the consignor's employee(s) who

the shipment; and
    (5) All findings of the consignee in such cases be made a matter of 
record subject to the inspection of the Secretary or other Government 
officer, in connection with any necessary investigation.

                     Subpart A--General Information



Sec. 370.1  Definitions.

    In this part, unless the context indicates otherwise:
    Automated Clearing House (ACH) means a payment mechanism through 
which participating institutions exchange funds electronically.
    Deposit account means the account maintained at a financial 
institution specified by a recipient into which ACH credit or debit 
entries under this part are to be made.
    Entry means an order or request for the deposit of money to the 
deposit account of an owner (a credit entry) or for the payment of money 
from the deposit account of an owner (a debit entry).
    Financial institution means, for purposes of this part, an 
institution which processes the transfer of funds by authorized 
electronic means.
    Owner means the individual(s) or entity in whose name(s) a security 
is registered and who is authorized under the appropriate subparts of 
this title to request that the security be transferred, reissued, 
reinvested, exchanged or paid.
    Payment means, for the purpose of this part, the deposit of money 
from the Department to the deposit account of the owner.
    Security means any obligation issued by the United States that, by 
the terms of the applicable offering circular, is made subject to this 
part.
    Settlement Date means the date an exchange of funds with respect to

                      Subpart B--Credit ACH Entries



Sec. 370.5  Designation of a financial institution to receive ACH payments.

    (a) The owner of a security shall designate a financial institution 
to receive ACH payments and shall identify the deposit account to which 
the payments are to be credited, in accordance with the Treasury 
circular and regulations governing the terms and conditions of the 
security to which the payment relates.
    (b) The designation of a financial institution by an owner to 
receive payments with respect to a security constitutes the appointment 
of that institution as the owner's agent for the receipt of such 
payments. The crediting of a payment to the institution for deposit to 
an account in accordance with the instructions of the owner discharges 
the United States of any further responsibility for such payment. Where 
the institution has arranged with the Federal Reserve Bank to have 
payments credited through a designee institution, the crediting of a 
payment to that designee institution discharges the United States of any 
further responsibility for the amount of such payment.

Sec. 370.6  Agreement of the financial institution.

    Any financial institution which has agreed to accept credit payments 
under 31 CFR part 210, or hereafter agrees to do so, shall be deemed to 
accept payments under this part. In any case, a financial institution's 
acceptance and handling of a payment made with respect to a security 
covered by this part shall constitute its agreement to the provisions of 
this part. An institution may not be designated to receive payments, as 
provided in this part, unless it has agreed, or hereafter agrees, to 
receive direct deposit payments under 31 CFR part 210.

Sec. 370.7  Change in deposit account by financial institution.

    Upon the request of a financial institution receiving ACH payments 
with respect to a security, the Department will change a deposit account 
number and/or type or classification of such account without requiring 
the submission of a request from the owner of the security. The request 
must be made in accordance with implementing instructions issued by the 
Department. Such a request by a financial institution will be deemed an 
agreement by the institution to indemnify the Department and the owner 
for any loss resulting from the requested change.

Sec. 370.8  Prenotification.

    (a) General. The Department may send a prenotification message to 
the financial institution designated to receive ACH payments to confirm 
the accuracy of the account information furnished by an owner, or other 
person or entity entitled to make the designation, and to advise the 
financial institution that such account has been so designated. 
Prenotification messages may be sent at any time, but not less than 15 
days prior to the first ACH payment. A prenotification message may also 
be sent whenever there is a change in the payment instructions. The 
prenotification message shall contain the ABA routing/transit number of 
the financial institution to which payments with respect to a security 
are to be made, as well as a depositor name reference, deposit account 
number, and type or classification of account at the institution to 
which such payments are to be credited.
    (b) Response to prenotification. The institution must respond to the 
prenotification message within eight calendar days after the date of 
receipt if the information as to the deposit account number and/or the 
type of account contained in the message does not agree with the records 
of the institution, or if the institution for any other reason has 
questions about the forthcoming payment, including its

[[Page 425]]

ability to credit the payment in accordance with this part. Upon receipt 
of a response to the prenotification message, the Department, as 
appropriate, will correct the payment instructions and send another 
prenotification message, or contact the owner for further instructions.
    (c) Effect of failure to reject. If an institution does not reject 
or otherwise respond to a prenotification message within the specified 
time period, the institution shall be deemed to have accepted the 
prenotification and to have warranted to the Department that the 
information as to the deposit account number and/or the type of account 
contained in the message is accurate as of the time of such 
prenotification.

Sec. 370.9  Continuation of payment instructions.

    Payment instructions for an account maintained by the Department 
will continue to apply to those securities until the Department:
    (a) Receives a request from the owner to change such instructions; 
or
    (b) Receives a request from a financial institution to change such 
instructions in accordance with Sec. 370.4; or
    (c) Receives advice from the financial institution holding the 
deposit account to which payment is being made that it has been closed; 
or
    (d) Receives notice of a change in status of a designated account or 
of the owner, as provided in the regulations governing the terms and 
conditions of individual securities.

Sec. 370.10  Responsibility of financial institution.

    An institution which receives a payment on behalf of its customer 
must:
    (a) Upon receipt, credit the designated account and make the payment 
available for withdrawal or other use on the payment date. If a 
scheduled payment date is not a business day for the Federal Reserve 
Bank of the district in which the institution is located, payment will 
be made on the next-succeeding business day. If the institution is 
unable to credit the designated account, it shall return the payment by 
no later than the next business day after the date of receipt, with an 
electronic message or other response, explaining the reason for the 
return.
    (b) Promptly notify the Department when the designated account has 
been closed, or when it is on notice of the death or legal incapacity 
(as determined under applicable State law) of any individual named on 
such account, or when it is on notice of the dissolution of a 
corporation in whose name the deposit account is held. In all such 
cases, the institution, following receipt of notice by its 
organizational component responsible for ACH transactions, shall return, 
with explanatory advice, all payments received for the designated 
account.

Sec. 370.11  Payments in error/duplicate payments.

    If the Department or a Federal Reserve Bank has made a payment in 
error under this part, the Department or Federal Reserve Bank will make 
a corrected payment, as appropriate, to the person(s) or entity entitled 
thereto as established in accordance with the appropriate regulations 
governing the security involved. It will then promptly initiate action 
to recover the payment in error, and do so likewise on any duplicate 
payment that occurs, as follows:
    (a) Send a written or electronic notice to the financial institution 
to which the payment was directed, which notice shall include the 
deposit account name reference, number, and the date and amount of the 
error in payment or duplicate payment that was not returned. See 
Secs. 370.5(b) and 370.7(b) of this part. Upon receipt of this notice, 
the financial institution shall immediately return to the appropriate 
Federal Reserve Bank an amount equal to the payment in error or 
duplicate

[[Page 426]]

payment, where available. If the institution is unable to return payment 
for whatever reason, the institution shall immediately notify the 
Department or the Federal Reserve Bank, and provide such information as 
it has about the matter. The Department reserves the right to request 
the return of a partial amount of a payment in error or a duplicate 
payment.
    (b) Where the payment in error or a duplicate payment has not been 
returned, the Department or Federal Reserve Bank shall undertake such 
other actions as may be appropriate under the circumstances. To the 
extent permitted by law, the collection action may include deducting the 
amount owing from future payments made to the deposit account to which 
the payment in error or duplicate payment was made.
    (c) If a financial institution has failed to respond in any way to 
the notice made pursuant to Sec. 370.8(a) of this part within 60 
calendar days of that notice, it will be deemed, by virtue of its 
acceptance of the ACH payment hereunder, to have authorized the Federal 
Reserve Bank to debit the amount of the payment in error or duplicate 
payment from the account maintained or utilized by the financial 
institution at the Federal Reserve Bank to which the payment in error or 
duplicate payment was credited. An institution designated by a financial 
institution to receive payment on its behalf, in authorizing such 
financial institution to utilize its account on the books of the Federal 
Reserve Bank, shall similarly be deemed to authorize such debit from 
that account. The institution to which payment has been directed and the 
owner of the security, who designated the deposit account to which the 
payment has been deposited, shall be deemed to have agreed to provide 
information and assistance to effect recovery of a payment in error or 
duplicate payment under this part. The owner is further deemed to agree 
to any action permitted by law to effect collection of a payment in 
error or a duplicate payment.

    Each Federal Reserve Bank, as fiscal agent of the United States, 
shall receive payment in accordance with the information furnished by 
the owner as to the ABA routing/transit number of the financial 
institution to which ACH payments are to be made, as well as a depositor 
name reference, deposit account number, and type or classification of 
account at the institution to which such payments are to be credited, 
and shall make payment to the designated institution by crediting it to 
the account of the designated institution, or of its designee, in 
accordance with the Federal Reserve Bank's operating circular governing 
such payments.

Sec. 370.13  Timeliness of action.

    If, because of circumstances beyond its control, the Department, a 
Federal Reserve Bank, or a financial institution is delayed beyond 
applicable time limits in taking any action with respect to a payment, 
the time for taking such action shall be extended as necessary until the 
cause of the delay ceases to operate.

370.14  Substitute payment procedures.

    The Department of the Treasury is authorized to employ substitute or 
alternate payment procedures, instead of ACH, in any case, or class of 
cases, where operational exigencies necessitate such action. Any such 
action shall be final.

    The provisions of this regulation shall apply to any other payments

shall furnish the same type of information as is required in these 
regulations from a security owner.

    (a) The Department and the Federal Reserve Banks may rely on the 
information provided by the owner, or other person or entity entitled to 
make the designation, concerning the financial institution or deposit 
account to which payment is to be made, and are not required to verify 
this information. The Department and the Federal Reserve Banks shall not 
be liable for any action taken in accordance with the information so 
furnished.
    (b) In the event that the United States or the Department is unable 
to make a payment when due, the liability of the United States and the 
Department is limited to the amount of the payment.

Sec. 370.20  Designation of a financial institution to receive debit ACH entries.

    The purchaser of a security shall designate a financial institution 
to receive debit ACH entries and shall identify the deposit account to 
which the debit entries are to be received, by written authorization, or 
by an authorization similarly authenticated by the purchaser, in a 
manner approved by the Department. The purchaser of a security to be 
held in TREASURY DIRECT must receive debit ACH entries in the same 
deposit account designated to receive TREASURY DIRECT payments by the 
ACH method. Such TREASURY DIRECT account must have been established at 
least two weeks prior to the scheduled debit ACH entry and must be an 
account which is capable of receiving debit entries. The authorization 
of the purchaser shall not be recurring, that is, it shall be effective 
for one debit transaction only.



Sec. 370.21  Agreement of the financial institution.

    A financial institution's acceptance and handling of a debit entry 
made with respect to a security covered by this subpart shall constitute 
its agreement to the provisions of this subpart.



Sec. 370.22  Prenotification.

    (a) General. The Department may send a prenotification message to 
the financial institution designated to receive debit ACH entries to 
confirm the accuracy of the account information furnished by an owner, 
or other person or entity entitled to make the designation, and to 
advise the financial institution that such account has been so 
designated. Prenotification messages may be sent at any time prior to 
the first debit ACH entry. The prenotification message shall contain the 
ABA routing/transit number of the financial institution designated to 
receive the debit entry, as well as a depositor name reference, deposit 
account number, and type or classification of account at such 
institution.
    (b) Response to prenotification. The financial institution must 
respond to the prenotification message within eight calendar days after 
the date of receipt, if the information as to the account number and/or 
the type of account contained in the message does not agree with the 
records of the financial institution, or if the financial institution 
for any other reason has questions about the forthcoming debit entry, 
including its ability to debit the account in accordance with this 
subpart. Upon receipt of a response to the prenotification message, the 
Department or the Federal Reserve Bank, as appropriate, will correct the 
debit instructions and send another

[[Page 428]]

prenotification message, or contact the owner for further instructions.
    (c) Effect of failure to reject. If a financial institution does not 
reject or otherwise respond to a prenotification message within the 
specified time period, the financial institution shall be deemed to have 
accepted the prenotification and to have warranted to the Department or 
the Federal Reserve Bank that the information as to the deposit account 
number and/or the type of account contained in the message is accurate 
as of the time of such prenotification.



Sec. 370.23  Responsibility of financial institution.

    A financial institution which receives a debit entry on behalf of 
its customer must:
    (a) Debit the customer's account on the settlement date. If the 
financial institution is unable to debit the designated account, it 
shall return the entry by no later than the next business day after 
receipt, with an electronic message or other response explaining the 
reason for the return.
    (b) Promptly notify the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank or the 
Capital Area Servicing Center when the designated account has been 
closed, or when it is on notice of the death or legal incapacity (as 
determined under applicable State law) of any individual named on such 
account, or when it is on notice of the dissolution of a corporation in 
whose name the deposit account is held.



Sec. 370.24  Handling of debit entries by Federal Reserve Banks.

    Each Federal Reserve Bank, as fiscal agent of the United States, 
shall initiate the debit entry in accordance with the information 
furnished by the owner.



Sec. 370.25  Liability of Department and Federal Reserve Banks.

    The Department and the Federal Reserve Banks will rely on the 
information provided by the owner, or other person or entity entitled to 
make the designation, concerning the financial institution or deposit 
account designated to receive the debit entry, and are not required to 
verify this information. The Department and the Federal Reserve Banks 
shall not be liable for any action taken in accordance with the 
information so furnished.

cases for the convenience of the United States or in order to relieve 
any person(s) of unnecessary hardship, if such action is not

    Source: 50 FR 6344, Feb. 15, 1985, unless otherwise noted.



Sec. 391.0  Scope of regulations.

    These regulations apply to the waiver of late charges on claims due 
the Bureau of the Public Debt as authorized by 31 U.S.C. 3717(h). They 
are consistent with the Federal Claims Collection Standards on interest, 
administrative costs, and penalties prescribed jointly by the General 
Accounting Office and the Department of Justice and set

[[Page 429]]

forth in 4 CFR 102.13. The term ``claim'' as used in this part refers to 
an amount of money or property that has been determined to be owed to 
the Bureau of the Public Debt from any person, organization, or entity, 
except another Federal agency. The term ``late charges'' as used in this 
part includes interest, administrative costs, and penalties. When 
applying the following regulations, a distinction shall be drawn between 
an adjustment and a waiver. An adjustment is an account correction under 
any circumstances where the Bureau records a claim or accrues late 
charges to which it is not legally entitled. An adjustment may be made 
without the promulgation of regulations. A waiver applies whenever the 
Bureau accrues late charges it is entitled to assess and later 
relinquishes that right. Two examples of an adjustment are: (a) Where 
the underlying claim is without merit, and (b) where the debtor is not 
notified of the claim as required by 31 U.S.C. 3717. The latter includes 
being misinformed as to the amount of the charges or the time of their 
commencement.



Sec. 391.1  General.

    (a) Waiver of late charges. Late charges may be waived:
    (1) When the underlying claim is compromised in accordance with 4 
CFR part 103;
    (2) Where the underlying claim is not compromised but it is 
appropriate to waive late charges under the criteria of 4 CFR part 103 
relating to enforcement policy;
    (3) When collection of the underlying claim is terminated in 
accordance with 4 CFR part 104;
    (4) When a claim is suspended in accordance with 4 CFR part 104.
    (5) Where the cost of collecting the unpaid late charges would 
approach or exceed the amount of unpaid late charges to be collected and 
the amount of late charges does not qualify for referral to a collection 
agency or the Department of Justice;
    (6) Where the late charges pertain to claims involving savings bonds 
and notes arising under 31 U.S.C. 3105 and 3106 which are replaced 
pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3126;
    (7) For reasons of equity or good conscience as provided in 
Sec. 391.2.
    (b) Partial waiver. Late charges may be waived in full or in part.



Sec. 391.2  Equitable considerations.

    For reasons of equity and good conscience, late charges may be 
waived under the circumstances identified in this section.
    (a) Where, without fault or bad faith, the debtor could not submit 
payment within 30 days of the interest accrual date, the mandatory 
waiver provision in 4 CFR 102.13(g) may be extended. Such waiver will be 
considered on a case-by-case basis. Examples include, but are not 
limited to:
    (1) Postal service delays in forwarding the notice of indebtedness 
to a new address; and
    (2) Late receipt of the notice of indebtedness where the debtor was 
away from home on an extended vacation or hospitalized.
    (b) Where an installment plan is contemplated and the amount of the 
late charges in relation to the amount of reasonably affordable 
installment payments is so large that the debt may never be paid, late 
charges may be waived.



Sec. 391.3  Resolution of disputes.

    (a) To avoid the accrual of additional late charges during the 
resolution of a dispute, a debtor has the option of paying the amount of 
the claim and filing a request for a refund together with a request for 
review of the claim.
    (b) Where the claim is a result of the Bureau's administrative 
error, late charges accruing during the review period may be waived 
unless the Bureau's actions would have placed a reasonable person on 
notice that the Bureau erred and that the person should inquire further.
    (c) Where the claim is a result of the debtor's error or negligence 
and the administrative review is unreasonably protracted, late charges 
accruing during the protracted portion of the review period may be 
waived.
    (d) The period for administrative review begins on the date the 
request for review is received and ends 10 days after the final 
determination is mailed to the debtor. This paragraph shall not

[[Page 430]]

apply if the request for review is made in bad faith or for purposes of 
delay.



Sec. 391.4  Documentary evidence.

    (a) When late charges are waived, the debtor's administrative file 
shall be properly documented with a memorandum. The memorandum shall 
contain a brief narrative statement describing the circumstances leading 
to the waiver and the reason(s) for granting the waiver.
    (b) A credit report or a financial statement sworn to by the debtor 
may be required before waiver of late charges is approved for a 
compromise, suspension, or termination, except where the cost of 
obtaining such a report or statement exceeds the late charges due.



Sec. 391.5  Waiver approval.

    Waivers of late charges shall be approved by the Commissioner of the 
Bureau of the Public Debt or designee, except that compromises and 
terminations of the underlying claim shall be upon the recommendation of 
the Chief Counsel in accordance with 31 CFR 5.3.

response to an application for a White House press pass, officials of

days, an extension for one additional thirty day period will be granted

the Assistant Director--Protective Operations of the Secret Service for 
the purpose of personally supporting his eligibility for a security

denial. This official shall exercise final review authority in the 
matter. The applicant may be represented by counsel during this 
appearance.
    (f)(1) On the basis of the applicant's written and personal response 
and the factual basis for the proposed denial, the Assistant Director--

necessary.
    (2) If a decision is made that no such inquiry is necessary a final 
decision will be issued in conformity with paragraph (g) of this 
section.
    (3) If a decision is made that such further inquiry is necessary the

expeditiously made by the Assistant Director--Protective Operations of 
the United States Secret Service in accordance with the standard set 
forth in Sec. 409.1. If a final adverse decision is reached, the 
applicant will be notified of this final decision in writing. This

issuer or agent thereof), disposition, transportation, importation, 
exportation, or withdrawal of, or the endorsement or guaranty of 
signatures on, or otherwise dealing in any security (or evidence 
thereof) registered or inscribed in the name of any designated national 
is prohibited irrespective of the fact that at any time (either prior 
to, on or subsequent to the ``effective date'') the registered or 
inscribed owner thereof may have, or appears to have, assigned, 
transferred or otherwise disposed of any such security.



Sec. 500.203  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this chapter.

    (a) Any transfer after the ``effective date'' which is in violation 
of any provision of this chapter or of any regulation, ruling, 
instruction, license, or other direction or authorization thereunder and 
involves any property in which a designated national has or has had an 
interest since such ``effective date'' is null and void and shall not be 
the basis for the assertion or recognition of any interest in or right, 
remedy, power or privilege with respect to such property.
    (b) No transfer before the ``effective date'' shall be the basis for 
the assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege 
with respect to, or interest in, any property in which a designated 
national has or has had an interest since the ``effective date'' unless 
the person with whom such property is held or maintained had written 
notice of the transfer or by any written evidence had recognized such 
transfer prior to such ``effective date.''
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Secretary of the Treasury before, during or after a transfer shall 
validate such transfer or render it enforceable to the same extent as it 
would be valid or enforceable but for the provisions of section 5(b) of 
the Trading With the Enemy Act, as amended, and this chapter and any 
ruling, order, regulation, direction or instruction issued thereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void, or

[[Page 447]]

with whom such property was held or maintained (and as to such person, 
only) in cases in which such person is able to establish each of the 
following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this chapter by the person with whom such property was 
held or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to the provisions of 
this chapter and was not so licensed or authorized or if a license or 
authorization did purport to cover the transfer, that such license or 
authorization had been obtained by misrepresentation or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) Promptly upon discovery that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this chapter 
or any regulation, ruling, instruction, license or other direction or 
authorization thereunder, or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Secretary 
of the Treasury, or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation or the withholding of material 
facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained;

the person with whom such property was held or maintained filed with the 
Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220, a report in triplicate 
setting forth in full the circumstances relating to such transfer. The 
filing of a report in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 
shall not be deemed to be compliance or evidence of compliance with 
paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section.
    (e) Unless licensed or authorized by Sec. 500.504 or otherwise 
licensed or authorized pursuant to this chapter any attachment, 
judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other judicial 
process is null and void with respect to any property in which on or 
since the ``effective date'' there existed the interest of a designated 
foreign country or national thereof.
    (f) For the purpose of this section the term ``property'' includes 
gold, silver, bullion, currency, coin, credit, securities (as that term 
is defined in section 2(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) 
(48 Stat. 74; 15 U.S.C. 77(b)), bills of exchange, notes, drafts, 
acceptances, checks, letters of credit, book credits, debts, claims, 
contracts, negotiable documents of title, mortgages, liens, annuities,

delegate by specific license, any person holding any property included 
in paragraph (h) of this section is prohibited from holding, 
withholding, using, transferring, engaging in any transactions 
involving, or exercising any right, power, or privilege with respect to 
any such property, unless it is held in an interest-bearing account in a 
domestic bank.
    (b) Any person presently holding property subject to the provisions 
of paragraph (a) of this section which, as of the effective date of this 
section, is not being held in accordance with the provisions of that 
paragraph, shall transfer such property to or hold such property or 
cause such property to be held in an interest-bearing account in any 
domestic bank within 30 days of the effective date of this section.
    (c) Any person holding any checks or drafts subject to the 
provisions of Sec. 500.201 is authorized and directed, wherever possible 
consistent with state law (except as otherwise specifically provided in 
paragraph (c)(3) of this section), to negotiate or present for 
collection or payment such instruments and credit the proceeds to 
interest-bearing accounts. Any transaction by any person incident to the 
negotiation, processing, presentment, collection or payment of such 
instruments and deposit of the proceeds into an interest-bearing account 
is hereby authorized: Provided, That:
    (1) The transaction does not represent, directly or indirectly, a 
transfer of the interest of a designated national to any other country 
or person;
    (2) The proceeds are held in a blocked account indicating the 
designated national who is the payee or owner of the instrument; and,
    (3) In the case of a blocked check or draft which has been purchased 
by the maker/drawer from the drawee bank (e.g., cashier's check, money 
order, or traveler's check) or which is drawn against a presently 
existing account, such bank, on presentment of the instrument in 
accordance with the provisions of this section, shall either:

[[Page 449]]

the maker and payee of the instrument.
    (d) Property subject to the provisions of paragraph (a) or (b) of 
this section, held by a person claiming a set-off against such property, 
is exempt from the provisions of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this

invested in securities in accordance with Sec. 500.513. The interest 
paid on such accounts by a broker/dealer who does not elect to hold such

abandoned or unclaimed property under Sec. 500.561 may continue to be

in which the property is held by the agency, or the property is held by 
the agency in a blocked account in a domestic bank. The interest 
credited to such accounts by an agency which does not elect to hold such 
property in a domestic bank shall not be less than the maximum rate 
payable on the shortest time deposit available in any domestic bank in 
the state.
    (g) For purposes of this section, the term ``interest-bearing

maturity not exceeding six-months, appropriate to the amounts involved.

and (b) of this section:
    (1) Any currency, bank deposit and bank accounts subject to the 
provisions of Sec. 500.201;

Sec. 500.206  Exemption of information and informational materials.

    (a) The importation from any country and the exportation to any 
country of information or informational materials as defined in 
Sec. 500.332, whether commercial or otherwise, regardless of format or 
medium of transmission, are exempt from the prohibitions and regulations 
of this part.
    (b) All transactions of common carriers incident to the importation 
or exportation of information or informational materials, including 
mail, between the United States and any foreign country designated under 
Sec. 500.201, are exempt from the prohibitions and regulations of this 
part.
    (c) This section does not authorize transactions related to 
information or informational materials not fully created and in 
existence at the date of the

[[Page 450]]

transaction, or to the substantive or artistic alteration or enhancement 
of information or informational materials, or to the provision of 
marketing and business consulting services by a person subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States. Such prohibited transactions include, 
without limitation, payment of advances for information or informational 
materials not yet created and completed, provision of services to 
market, produce or co-produce, create or assist in the creation of 
information or informational materials, and payment or royalties to a 
designated national with respect to income received for enhancements or 
alterations made by persons subject to the jurisdiction of the United 
States to information or informational materials imported from a 
designated national.
    (d) This section does not authorize transactions incident to the 
exportation of restricted technical data as defined in section 799 of 
the Export Administration Regulations, 15 CFR parts 768-799, or to the 
exportation of goods for use in the transmission of any data. The 
exportation of such goods to designated foreign countries is prohibited, 
as provided in Sec. 500.201 of this part and Sec. 785.1 of the Export 
Administration Regulations.

    Example 1: A U.S. publisher ships 500 copies of a book to Vietnam 
directly from San Francisco aboard a chartered aircraft, and receives 
payment by means of a letter of credit issued by a Vietnamese bank and 
confirmed by an American bank. These are permissible transactions under 
this section.
    Example 2: A Vietnamese party exports a single master copy of a 
Vietnamese motion picture to a U.S. party and licenses the U.S. party to 
duplicate, distribute, show and exploit in the United States the 
Vietnamese film in any medium, including home video distribution, for 
five years, with the Vietnamese party receiving 40% of the net income. 
All transactions relating to the activities described in this example 
are authorized under this section or Sec. 500.550.
    Example 3: A U.S. recording company proposes to contract with a 
Vietnamese musician to create certain musical compositions, and to 
advance royalties of $10,000 to the musician. The music written in 
Vietnam is to be recorded in a studio that the recording company owns in 
the Bahamas. These are all prohibited transactions. The U.S. party is 
prohibited under Sec. 500.201 from contracting for the Vietnamese 
musician's services, from transferring $10,000 to Vietnam to pay for 
those services, and from providing the Vietnamese with production 
services through the use of its studio in the Bahamas. No informational 
materials are in being at the time of these proposed transactions. 
However, the U.S. recording company may contract to purchase and import 
preexisting recordings by the Vietnamese musician, or to copy the 
recordings in the United States and pay negotiated royalties to Vietnam 
under this section or Sec. 500.550.
    Example 4: A Vietnamese party enters into a subpublication 
agreement licensing a U.S. party to print and publish copies of a 
musical composition and to sub-license rights of public performance, 
adaptation, and arrangement of the musical composition, with payment to 
be a percentage of income received. All transactions related to the 
activities described in this example are authorized under this section 
and Sec. 500.550, except for adaption and arrangement, which constitute 
artistic enhancement of the Vietnamese composition. Payment to the 
Vietnamese party may not reflect income received as a result of these 
enhancements.

[[Page 457]]



Sec. 500.411  Dealings abroad in commodities subject to the Regulations.

    Section 500.204 prohibits the unlicensed importation into the United

become a manufactured form of the commodity rather than a processed form 
thereof. In case of question, a ruling should be requested from the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control. Requests for rulings in the form of 
license applications or otherwise should include adequate technical 
detail. It should be noted that it is quite possible for merchandise to 
have North Korea, North Viet-Nam, Cambodia, or South Viet-Nam as its 
``country of origin'' for Foreign Assets Control purposes while having 
some other country as its ``country of origin'' for marking or 
statistical purposes.
[41 FR 16554, Apr. 20, 1976]



Sec. 500.413  Participation in certain development projects in Vietnam.

    The following examples illustrate the scope of the authorization in 
Sec. 500.576 for dealings in property in which Vietnam or a Vietnamese 
national has an interest with respect to development projects in Vietnam 
formally proposed or approved for execution, funding or sponsorship by a 
qualified international institution listed in appendix A to this part 
(``Qualified Projects'').

    Example  1: The Government of Vietnam (``Vietnam'') approaches a 
U.S. financial consulting firm (the ``U.S. Consulting Firm'') for advice 
on building cement plants in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The project 
might be eligible for funding by the Asian Development Bank (the 
``ADB''), and Vietnam wants the U.S. Consulting Firm's assistance in 
conducting a feasibility study for submission to the ADB. Since the 
project has not yet been formally proposed or approved for funding by 
the ADB, no involvement of the U.S. Consulting Firm is authorized 
pursuant to Sec. 500.576. However, had the ADB formally proposed the 
project in its monthly ADB Business Opportunities as a project being 
considered for funding, or had it funded the feasibility study, 
Sec. 500.576 would authorize the U.S. Consulting Firm's transactions.
    Example  2: Upon ADB approval of funding for the cement plant 
project, a U.S. company (the ``U.S. Company'') forms a joint venture 
with a Vietnamese company to bid on construction of the cement plants in 
Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The joint venture's bid is successful, and 
it purchases construction equipment from the United States, financed by 
a U.S. bank and insured by a U.S. company. Several items are sourced 
from the United States during construction, including cement equipment, 
which is covered by a ten-year service and maintenance agreement. The 
joint venture agreement calls for the continued management and operation 
of the plants by the U.S. Company after completion, and for the 
insurance of the plants by a U.S. insurance company. Each of these 
transactions with respect to the Qualified Project is authorized by 
Sec. 500.576.
    Example  3: The International Finance Corporation (``IFC'') offers 
equity investment in a Vietnamese company to finance environmental 
safeguards for drilling operations in offshore oil fields. Various U.S. 
investors, including venture capital companies, brokerage firms, and 
investment banks contribute capital and receive shares in the Vietnamese 
company. This equity investment in a Qualified Project is authorized by 
Sec. 500.576. The U.S. companies purchasing these shares as part of the 
IFC-sponsored development project may hold or resell them, including 
resale to other persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction. Shares acquired by 
entities not subject to U.S. jurisdiction may not then be purchased or 
repurchased by a person subject to U.S. jurisdiction.
    Example  4: (a) An Indonesian company (the ``Contractor'') is a 
successful bidder on a Qualified Project, and hires a U.S. law firm to 
represent it in contract negotiations with Vietnam to build a fish 
processing and canning facility in Vietnam funded by the World Bank. The 
law firm may represent the Contractor throughout the course of the 
project pursuant to Sec. 500.576, once the project has been formally 
proposed or approved for funding by the World Bank.

    (b) Once the Qualified Project is underway, the Contractor purchases 
equipment manufactured in France by a French company. The long-term 
servicing of the equipment, however, will

[[Page 458]]

be provided by the French company's U.S. subsidiary. The service 
transactions are authorized pursuant to Sec. 500.576.
    (c) After the processing facility is completed, Vietnam hires a U.S. 
marketing firm to develop marketing strategies for the product 
worldwide. It further asks the marketing firm to execute the strategies 
it devises and to represent the product in South-East Asia, including 
the domestic market in Vietnam. The marketing firm in turn would hire 
the brokerage services of a U.S. citizen domiciled in Thailand for the 
sale of the product to that country. These transactions are outside the 
scope of Sec. 500.576, and violate Sec. 500.201, because they are not 
directly incident to the Qualified Project funded by the World Bank.

Sec. 500.502  Effect of subsequent license or authorization.

    (5) Transfer or withdrawal from a foreign-trade zone; or
    (6) Manipulation or manufacture in a warehouse or in a foreign-trade 
zone.
    (b) Paragraph (a) of this section is intended solely to allow 
certain restricted disposition of merchandise which is imported without 
proper authorization. Paragraph (a) does not authorize the purchase or 
importation of any merchandise.
    (c) The purchase outside the United States for importation into the 
United States of merchandise specified in Sec. 500.204 (other than 
merchandise to which Sec. 500.204(a)(1) is applicable) and the 
importation of such merchandise into the United States (including

there is presented to the collector of customs in connection with such 
importation the original of an appropriate certificate of origin as 
defined in paragraph

[[Page 470]]

(d) of this section and provided that the merchandise was shipped to the 
United States directly, or on a through bill of lading, from the country 
issuing the appropriate certificate of origin.

Sec. 500.549  Proof of origin.

    Specific licenses for importation of goods the origin of which is 
North Korea, North Viet-Nam, Cambodia, or South Viet-Nam are generally 
not issued unless the applicant submits satisfactory documentary proof 
of the location of the goods outside North Korea, North Viet-Nam, 
Cambodia, or South Viet-Nam prior to the applicable effective date and 
of the absence of any interest of North Korea, North Viet-Nam, Cambodia, 
or South Viet-Nam in the goods at all times on or since that date. Since 
the type of documents which would constitute satisfactory proof varies 
depending upon the facts of the particular case, it is not possible to 
state in advance the type of documents required. However, it has been 
found that affidavits, statements, invoices, and other documents 
prepared by manufacturers, processors, sellers or shippers cannot be 
relied on and are therefore not by themselves accepted by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control as satisfactory proof of origin. Independent 
corroborating documentary evidence, such as insurance documents, bills 
of lading, etc., may be accepted as satisfactory proof.

services, or artistic or other substantive alteration or enhancements to

subject to Sec. 500.204 on proof of the export of the identical

assertions of beneficial ownership interest without the requirement of 
independent evidence.

Sec. 500.575  Certain services to Vietnamese nationals authorized.

    (a) Specific licenses may be issued on a case-by-case basis for the 
provision in the United States or a third country of

[[Page 477]]

business orientation or training services to Vietnamese nationals. The 
orientation or training program may pertain only to industrial or 
commercial processes, or to specific equipment and related technical 
data both of which are eligible for export under a general license to 
Country Group Y, as set forth in Supplement No. 1 to part 770 of the 
Export Administration Regulations, 15 CFR parts 768-799. Licenses issued 
pursuant to this section will not authorize Vietnamese participation in 
orientation and training programs with respect to specific equipment and 
related technical data that may not be exported under a general license 
to Country Group Y pursuant to the Export Administration Regulations. 
Training programs may involve instruction on the maintenance or 
operation of a particular product, but may not involve instruction in a 
product's design or manufacture.

    Note: The transfer of mass-market software and certain technical 
data eligible for export to most destinations under General License GTDU 
to Vietnamese nationals may require additional authorization from the 
U.S. Department of Commerce pursuant to the Export Administration 
Regulations.

    (b) Transactions directly incident to the travel and maintenance 
expenses of the Vietnamese nationals for purposes of orientation or 
training programs are authorized pursuant to Sec. 500.566. Payment of 
salaries or other fees to Vietnamese nationals participating in 
orientation or training programs is not authorized.
    (c) Applications for specific licenses should be submitted by the 
orientation or training program sponsor and should include a full 
description of the program to be offered, including the participants, 
the identity of their employers, and the capacities in which the 
participants are employed.

Sec. 500.576  Authorization of transactions concerning certain development projects in Vietnam.

    (a) All transactions by persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction in 
connection with participation in development projects in Vietnam 
formally proposed or approved for execution, funding or sponsorship by 
the international institutions listed in appendix A to this part 
(``Qualified Projects'') are authorized. For purposes of this section, 
Qualified Projects include investment projects, structural adjustment 
lending, sector adjustment lending, International Monetary Fund balance-
of-payments support, and general development assistance including 
grants, technical assistance, and loans.
    (b) Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction may provide both goods and 
services to any party contracting to participate in a Qualified Project 
pursuant to the authorization contained in this section.
    (1) Services may include financial, legal, consulting, insurance, 
shipping and other services.
    (2) Persons subject to U.S jurisdiction may participate in Qualified 
Projects as suppliers, contractors, or subcontractors, and through joint 
ventures with third-country nationals and Vietnamese nationals.
    (3) Persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction may finance, or guarantee 
the performance of, activities of U.S. participants in a Qualified 
Project; co-financing of or lending to the Qualified Project itself by a 
person subject to U.S. jurisdiction may be authorized by specific 
license pursuant to Sec. 500.801.

Illustrative examples of transactions covered by this section are set 
forth in Sec. 500.413.
    (c) Except as otherwise authorized, persons subject to U.S. 
jurisdiction may not participate in development projects in Vietnam that 
are bilaterally funded and administered, or in projects or feasibility 
studies prior to formal proposal or approval by a qualified 
international institution for its involvement in the project or study. 
If a qualified international institution formally proposes but 
thereafter rejects, terminates, or abandons a project, the project shall 
no longer constitute a Qualified Project for purposes of this section. 
Except as otherwise specifically authorized pursuant to this part, 
persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction may not enter into any new 
commitments with respect to the project after the date of such 
rejection, termination, or abandonment. In addition, this section does 
not authorize:

[[Page 478]]

    (1) The importation of Vietnamese-origin goods into the United 
States, except as required to honor service or warranty contracts 
associated with Qualified Projects;
    (2) Offshore transactions of persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction 
involving the sale of Vietnamese-origin goods between Vietnam and third 
countries, or among third countries;
    (3) Flights into or out of Vietnam by aircraft owned or controlled 
by persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction, except when such persons 
transport, on aircraft they own, only passengers or cargo associated 
with a Qualified Project in which such persons are participating 
pursuant to this section;
    (4) The use in Vietnam of credit cards issued by a U.S. banking 
institution; or
    (5) A debit to a blocked account.

    Example: A Vietnamese highway project feasibility study financed by 
a third-country development agency is not a Qualified Project for 
purposes of this section. However, the feasibility study would be a 
Qualified Project, notwithstanding the bilateral funding, if the 
International Development Association had formally proposed the highway 
project as one under consideration for funding in its Monthly 
Operational Summary of World Bank and IDA Proposed Projects.

    (d) Within 10 business days after entering into an agreement for 
goods, services, financing, investment, or other participation in or 
related to a Qualified Project, the person(s) subject to U.S. 
jurisdiction entering into the agreement must register with the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control, Compliance Division, U.S. Department of the 
Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW.--Annex, Washington, DC 20220. 
The registration shall reference the fact that the agreement was entered 
into pursuant to 31 CFR 500.576(a), and shall provide:
    (1) The name, address, telephone and facsimile numbers, and 
nationality of the person(s) subject to U.S. jurisdiction;
    (2) If the reporting party is not an individual, the name, address, 
telephone and facsimile numbers of the individual to contact for further 
information,
    (3) The name of the international institution listed in appendix A 
formally proposing, approving, executing, funding, or sponsoring the 
project;
    (4) The name and a brief description of the project in Vietnam (with 
any contract, project, request for bid, or other identifying number);
    (5) A brief description of the activity covered by the agreement, 
and the contract value; and
    (6) If the reporting party is a subcontractor, the prime 
contractor's name, address, and nationality, and those of all 
intermediate subcontractors.

Registration is not required of agencies of the Federal Government 
participating in Qualified Projects.
    (e) Upon registration meeting the requirements of paragraph (d) of 
this section, the Office of Foreign Assets Control will assign a 
registration number to the contract involved. This number should be 
referenced in all funds transfers and other banking transactions that 
take place through banks subject to U.S. jurisdiction, and in all U.S. 
export documents, in connection with the Qualified Project in Vietnam in 
order to avoid the blocking of such funds and to facilitate export 
transactions.
    (f) Annual reports must be filed with the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control on the anniversary of the issuance of a contract registration 
number, briefly describing the status of the project and any material 
changes in the information originally provided.

    Note to Sec. 500.576:  Exports or reexports to Vietnam of goods and 
technical data, or of the direct products of technical data (regardless 
of U.S. content), in connection with activities licensed by FAC may 
require authorization from the U.S. Department of Commerce pursuant to 
the Export Administration Regulations, 15 CFR parts 768-799.

    Source: 63 FR 10324, Mar. 3, 1998, unless otherwise noted.



Sec. 500.701  Penalties.

    (a) Attention is directed to section 16 of the Trading with the 
Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. App. 16--``TWEA''), as adjusted pursuant to the 
Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-
410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), which provides that:
    (1) Persons who willfully violate any provision of TWEA or any 
license, rule, or regulation issued thereunder, and persons who 
willfully violate, neglect, or refuse to comply with any order of the 
President issued in compliance with the provisions of TWEA shall, upon 
conviction, be fined not more than $1,000,000 or, if an individual, be 
fined not more than $100,000 or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, 
or both; and an officer, director, or agent of any corporation who

fined not more than $100,000 or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, 
or both.
    (2) Any property, funds, securities, papers, or other articles or 
documents, or any vessel, together with its tackle, apparel, furniture, 
and equipment, concerned in a violation of TWEA may upon conviction be 
forfeited to the United States.
    (3) The Secretary of the Treasury may impose a civil penalty of not 
more than $55,000 per violation on any person who violates any license, 
order, or regulation issued under TWEA.
    (4) Any property, funds, securities, papers, or other articles or 
documents, or any vessel, together with its tackle, apparel, furniture, 
and equipment, that is the subject of a violation subject to a civil 
penalty issued pursuant to TWEA shall, at the discretion of the 
Secretary of the Treasury, be forfeited to the United States Government.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in TWEA are subject to increase 
pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571 which, when read in conjunction with section 
16 of TWEA, provides that persons convicted of violating TWEA may be 
fined up to the greater of either $250,000 for individuals and 
$1,000,000 for organizations

[[Page 482]]

or twice the pecuniary gain or loss from the violation.
    (c) Attention is directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides that 
whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statements or representations, or 
makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined 
under title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, 
or both.



Sec. 500.702  Prepenalty notice; contents; respondent's rights; service.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the Trading 
with the Enemy Act, and the Director determines that further proceedings 
are warranted, he or she shall issue to the person concerned a notice of 
his or her intent to impose a monetary penalty and/or forfeiture. The 
prepenalty notice may be issued whether or not another agency has taken 
any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty and/or 
forfeiture.
    (2) Respondent's rights--(i) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice 
shall also inform the respondent of respondent's right to respond in 
writing to the notice within 30 calendar days of the mailing or other 
service of the notice pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section, as to 
why a monetary penalty and/or forfeiture should not be imposed, or, if 
imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than proposed.
    (ii) Right to request a hearing. The prepenalty notice shall also 
inform the respondent that, in the response provided for in paragraph 
(b)(2)(i) of this section, the respondent may also request a hearing 
conducted pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 554-557 to present the respondent's 
defenses to the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture and to offer 
any other information that the respondent believes should be included in 
the agency record prior to a final determination concerning the 
imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture. A failure to request a 
hearing within 30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice 
constitutes a waiver of a hearing.
    (iii) Right to request discovery prior to hearing. The prepenalty 
notice shall also inform the respondent of the right to discovery prior 
to a requested hearing. Discovery must be requested in writing in the 
response provided for in paragraph (b)(2)(i) of this section, jointly 
with respondent's request for a hearing. A failure to file a request for 
discovery within 30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice 
constitutes a waiver of prehearing discovery.
    (c) Service. The prepenalty notice, or any amendment or supplement 
thereto, shall be served upon the respondent. Service shall be presumed 
completed:
    (1) Upon mailing a copy by registered or certified mail, return 
receipt requested, addressed to the respondent at the respondent's last 
known address; or
    (2) Upon the mailing date stated in a date-stamped postal receipt 
presented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control with respect to any 
respondent who has refused, avoided, or in any way attempted to decline 
delivery, tender, or acceptance of the registered or certified letter or 
has refused to recover a registered or certified letter served; or
    (3) Upon personal service by leaving a copy with the respondent or 
an officer, a managing or general agent, or any other agent authorized 
by appointment or by law to accept or receive service for the respondent 
and evidenced by a certificate of service signed and dated by the 
individual making such service, stating the method of service and the 
identity of the individual with whom the prepenalty notice was left; or

[[Page 483]]

    (4) Upon proof of service on a respondent who is not resident in the 
United States by any method of service permitted by the law of the 
jurisdiction in which the respondent resides or is located, provided the 
requirements of such foreign law satisfy due process requirements under 
United States law with respect to notice of administrative proceedings, 
and where applicable laws or intergovernmental agreements or 
understandings make the methods of service set forth in paragraphs 
(c)(1) through (3) of this section inappropriate or ineffective for 
service upon the nonresident respondent.



Sec. 500.703  Response to prepenalty notice; requests for hearing and prehearing discovery; waiver; informal settlement.

    (a) Deadline for response. The respondent shall have 30 calendar 
days from the date of mailing or other service of the prepenalty notice 
pursuant to Sec. 500.702(c) to respond thereto. The response, signed and 
dated, may be sent by facsimile transmission to the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control, at 202/622-1657, or by courier or other expedited means 
at any time during the 30-day response period if an original copy is 
sent concurrently via the U.S. Postal Service, registered or certified 
mail, return receipt requested. The date shown on the date-stamped 
registered or certified mail postal receipt will constitute the filing 
date of the response.
    (b) Form and contents of response--(1) In general. The written 
response need not be in any particular form, but shall contain 
information sufficient to indicate that it is in response to the 
prepenalty notice. It should be responsive to the allegations contained 
therein and set forth the nature of the respondent's defenses.
    (i) The response must admit or deny specifically each separate 
allegation of violation made in the prepenalty notice. If the respondent 
is without knowledge as to an allegation, the response shall so state, 
and such statement shall operate as a denial. Failure to deny, 
controvert, or object to any allegation will be deemed an admission of 
that allegation.
    (ii) The response must also set forth any additional or new matter 
or arguments the respondent seeks, or shall seek, to use in support of 
all defenses or claims for mitigation. Any defense or partial defense 
not specifically set forth in the response shall be deemed waived, and 
evidence thereon may be refused, except for good cause shown.
    (iii) The response must also accurately state, for each respondent, 
the respondent's full name and address for future service, together with 
current telephone and, if applicable, facsimile machine numbers and area 
code. If respondent is represented by counsel, counsel's full name and 
address, together with telephone and facsimile numbers and area code, 
may be provided in lieu of service information for the respondent. The 
respondent or respondent's counsel of record is responsible for 
providing timely written notice to the parties of any subsequent changes 
in the information provided.
    (2) Request for hearing and prehearing discovery; waiver. Any 
request for an administrative hearing and prehearing discovery must be 
made, if at all, in the written response made pursuant to this section 
and within the 30 calendar day period specified in Sec. 500.705(a). A 
failure to request a hearing and prehearing discovery in writing within 
30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice constitutes a 
waiver of a hearing and prehearing discovery. A response asserting that 
respondent reserves the right to request a hearing or prehearing 
discovery beyond the 30 calendar day period is ineffectual.
    (3) Informal settlement; response deadline. In addition or as an 
alternative to a written response to a prepenalty notice pursuant to 
this section, the respondent or respondent's representative may contact 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control as advised in the prepenalty notice 
to propose the settlement of allegations contained in the prepenalty 
notice and related matters. In the event of settlement at the prepenalty 
stage, the claim proposed in the prepenalty notice will be withdrawn, 
the respondent is not required to take a written position on allegations 
contained in the prepenalty notice, and the Office of Foreign Assets

[[Page 484]]

Control will make no final determination as to whether a violation 
occurred. The amount accepted in settlement of allegations in a 
prepenalty notice may vary from the civil penalty that might finally be 
imposed in the event of a formal determination of violation. In the 
event no settlement is reached, the 30 calendar day period specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section for written response to the prepenalty 
notice remains in effect unless additional time is granted by the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control. A failure to request a hearing and prehearing 
discovery in writing within 30 calendar days of service of the 
prepenalty notice constitutes a waiver of a hearing and prehearing 
discovery.



Sec. 500.704  Penalty imposition or withdrawal absent a hearing request.

    (a) No violation. If, in the absence of a timely hearing request, 
after considering any response to the prepenalty notice and any relevant 
facts, the Director determines that there was no violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
notify the respondent in writing of that determination and that no civil 
monetary penalty or civil forfeiture pursuant to this subpart will be 
imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, in the absence of a timely hearing request, after 
considering any response to the prepenalty notice and any relevant 
facts, the Director determines that there was a violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
issue a written notice of the imposition by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control of the civil monetary penalty and/or civil forfeiture and/or 
other available disposition with respect to that respondent.
    (1) The penalty/forfeiture notice shall inform the respondent that 
payment of the assessed penalty must be made within 30 calendar days of 
the mailing of the penalty notice.
    (2) The penalty/forfeiture notice shall inform the respondent of the 
requirement to furnish respondent's taxpayer identification number 
pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 7701 and that the Department intends to use such 
number for the purposes of collecting and reporting on any delinquent 
penalty amount in the event of a failure to pay the penalty imposed.



Sec. 500.705  Time and opportunity to request a hearing.

    (a) Deadline for hearing request. Within 30 calendar days of the 
date of mailing or other service of the prepenalty notice pursuant to 
Sec. 500.702(c), the respondent may file a written request for an agency 
hearing conducted pursuant to this section, to present the respondent's 
defenses to the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture and to offer 
any other information for inclusion, if found admissible pursuant to 
Sec. 500.715(a), into the agency record prior to a final determination 
concerning the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture.

by the respondent or by the respondent's counsel, the written hearing 
request must be accompanied by a written response to the prepenalty 
notice containing the information required by Sec. 500.703(b)(1)(i) 
through (iii). An untimely hearing request or written response to the 
prepenalty notice constitutes a waiver of a hearing.

interrogatories, requests for deposition transcripts, requests for 
protective orders, and all other filings relating to requests for and 
responses to discovery or pertaining to the hearing process, must be

close of business on the next working day.

R. Civ. P. 37(b)(2), 28 U.S.C.) for a party's failure to comply with 
discovery requests;
    (3) To receive relevant and material evidence and to rule upon the 
admission of evidence and offers of proof;
    (4) To take or cause depositions to be taken as authorized by this 
part;

necessary;
    (7) To consider and rule upon all procedural and other motions 
appropriate in an adjudicatory proceeding, provided that only the 
Secretary or the Secretary's designee shall have the power to grant any 
motion to dismiss the proceeding or to decide any other motion that 
results in a final determination of the merits of the proceeding;
    (8) To prepare and present to the Secretary or to the Secretary's 
designee a recommended decision as provided in Secs. 500.711(d) and

    (c) Appearance and practice in a civil penalty hearing--(1) 
Appearance before an Administrative Law Judge by counsel. Any member in 
good standing of the bar of the highest court of any state, 
commonwealth, possession, or territory of the United States, or the 
District of Columbia may represent respondents upon written notice to 
the Administrative Law Judge in a civil penalty hearing.
    (2) Appearance before an Administrative Law Judge by a nonlawyer. A 
respondent may appear on his own behalf; a duly authorized member of a 
partnership may represent the partnership; a duly authorized officer, 
director, or employee of any corporation may represent that corporation 
upon written notice to the Administrative Law Judge in a civil penalty 
hearing.
    (3) Office of Foreign Assets Control representation. The Office of 
Foreign Assets Control shall be represented by the Office of General 
Counsel of the United States Department of the Treasury.
    (d) Conflicts of interest--(1) Conflict of interest in 
representation. No individual shall appear as counsel for a party in a 
proceeding conducted pursuant to this subpart if it reasonably appears 
that such representation may be materially limited by that counsel's 
responsibilities to a third person, or by counsel's own interests.
    (2) Corrective measures. The Administrative Law Judge may take 
corrective measures at any stage of a proceeding to cure a conflict of 
interest in representation, including the issuance of an order limiting 
the scope of representation or disqualifying an individual

[[Page 486]]

from appearing in a representative capacity for the duration of the 
proceeding.
    (e) Ex parte communications--(1) Definition. The term ex parte 
communication means any material oral or written communication not on 
the public record concerning the merits of an adjudicatory proceeding 
with respect to which reasonable prior notice to all parties is not 
given, on any material matter or proceeding covered by these regulations 
that takes place between:
    (i) A party to the proceeding, a party's counsel, or any other 
individual; and
    (ii) The Administrative Law Judge handling that proceeding, or the 
Secretary, or the Secretary's designee.
    (2) Exceptions. (i) A request to learn the status of the proceeding 
does not constitute an ex parte communication; and
    (ii) Settlement inquiries and discussions do not constitute ex parte 
communications.
    (3) Prohibition on ex parte communications. From the time a 
respondent requests a hearing until the date that the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee issues a final decision, no party, interested 
person, or counsel therefor shall knowingly make or cause to be made an 
ex parte communication. The Administrative Law Judge, the Secretary, and 
the Secretary's designee shall not knowingly make or cause to be made to 
a party, or to any interested person or counsel therefor, any ex parte 
communication.
    (4) Procedure upon occurrence of ex parte communication. If an ex 
parte communication is received by the Administrative Law Judge, the 
Administrative Law Judge shall cause all such written communication (or, 
if the communication is oral, a memorandum stating the substance of the 
communication) to be placed on the record of the proceeding and served 
on all parties. All parties to the proceeding shall have an opportunity, 
within 10 calendar days of the receipt of service of the notice or of 
receipt of a memorandum of the ex parte communication, to file responses 
thereto and to recommend any sanctions, in accordance with paragraph 
(e)(5) of this section, appropriate under the circumstances, or may file 
an interlocutory appeal with the Secretary or the Secretary's designee.
    (5) Sanctions. Any party to the proceeding, a party's counsel, or 
any other individual, who makes a prohibited ex parte communication, or 
who encourages or solicits another to make any such communication, may 
be subject to any appropriate sanction or sanctions imposed by the 
Administrative Law Judge for good cause shown, or that may be imposed 
upon interlocutory appeal taken to the Secretary or the Secretary's 
designee, including, but not limited to, exclusion from the hearing and 
an adverse ruling on the issue which is the subject of the prohibited 
communication.
    (f) Time limits. Except as provided elsewhere in this subpart, the 
Administrative Law Judge shall establish all time limits for filings 
with regard to hearings conducted pursuant to this subpart, except for 
decisions on interlocutory appeals filed with the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee.
    (g) Failure to appear. The unexcused failure of a respondent to 
appear in person at a hearing or to have duly authorized counsel appear 
in respondent's place constitutes a waiver of the respondent's right to 
a hearing and is deemed an admission of the violation alleged. Without 
further proceedings or notice to the respondent, the Administrative Law 
Judge shall enter a finding that the right to a hearing was waived, and 
the case shall be determined pursuant to Sec. 500.704.



Sec. 500.707  Interlocutory appeal.

    (a) Interlocutory appeals. When exceptions, requests for extensions, 
or motions, including motions for summary disposition, are denied by the 
Administrative Law Judge, interlocutory appeals may be taken to the 
Secretary or to the Secretary's designee for a decision.
    (b) Filing deadline. Interlocutory appeals must be filed no later 
than 15 calendar days after the matter being appealed has been decided 
in writing by the Administrative Law Judge. Parties may request that the 
Administrative Law Judge transmit the written decision to the parties by 
facsimile transmission, courier, or other expedited

[[Page 487]]

means in addition to service of the decision via the U.S. Postal Service 
by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. Such requests 
must be supported by a written statement of need for expedited delivery. 
Timely filing of the interlocutory appeal shall be determined by the 
date stated on the date-stamped registered or certified mail postal 
receipt.
    (c) Manner of filing. Interlocutory appeals to the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee must be filed by facsimile transmission to 202/622-
1188, courier, or other expedited means, and sent concurrently by 
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the 
Secretary's Office, U.S. Treasury Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, 
NW., Washington, DC 20220, with the envelope prominently marked 
``Attention: OFAC Interlocutory Appeal.'' Expedited service must also be

represented, their counsel, with certified copies sent concurrently by 
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.



Sec. 500.708  Settlement during hearing proceedings.

    Any party may, at any time during the hearing, unilaterally submit 
written offers or proposals for settlement of a proceeding to the 
Secretary or the Secretary's designee, at the address listed in 
Sec. 500.707(c). Submission of a written settlement offer does not 
provide a basis for adjourning or otherwise delaying all or any portion 
of a hearing. No settlement offer or proposal, nor any subsequent 
negotiation or resolution, is admissible as evidence in any hearing 
before this tribunal.



Sec. 500.709  Motions.

    (a) Written motions. Except as otherwise specifically provided 
herein, an application or request for an order or ruling must be made by 
written motion, in typed format.
    (1) All written motions must state with particularity the relief 
sought and must be accompanied by a proposed order.
    (2) No oral argument may be held on written motions unless directed 
by the Administrative Law Judge. Written memoranda, briefs, affidavits, 
and other relevant material and documents may be filed in support of or 
in opposition to a motion.
    (b) Oral motions. A motion may be made orally on the record unless 
the Administrative Law Judge directs that such motion be made in 
writing.
    (c) Filing of motions--(1) In general. Motions by respondents must 
be filed with the Administrative Law Judge and served upon the Office of 
the Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Treasury Department, 
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20220, with the envelope 
prominently marked ``Urgent: Annex--Room 3133,'' unless otherwise 
directed by the Administrative Law Judge. Motions by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control must be filed with the Administrative Law Judge 
and with each respondent or respondent's counsel. Motions may also be 
concurrently sent by facsimile transmission, courier, or other expedited 
means.
    (2) Interlocutory appeals. Motions related to interlocutory appeals 
to the Secretary or the Secretary's designee must be filed by facsimile

Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20220, with the envelope 
prominently marked ``Attention: OFAC Interlocutory Appeal.'' Expedited 
service must also be made upon the Administrative Law Judge and all 
parties or, if represented, their counsel, with certified copies sent 
concurrently by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.
    (d) Responses. (1) Any party may file a written response to a motion 
within 20 calendar days of the date of its mailing, by registered or 
certified mail pursuant to this subpart. If directed by the 
Administrative Law Judge, the time period in which to respond may be 
shortened or extended. The Administrative Law Judge may allow each party 
to file a response before finally ruling upon any oral or written 
motion. The Administrative Law Judge may allow a rejoinder to responses 
for

[[Page 488]]

good cause shown. If a rejoinder is permitted, it must be filed within 
15 calendar days of the date the response was filed and served upon all 
parties.
    (2) The failure of a party to oppose a written motion or an oral 
motion made on the record is deemed to be consent by that party to the 
entry of an order substantially in the form of any proposed order 
accompanying the motion.
    (e) Dilatory motions. Frivolous, dilatory, or repetitive motions are 
prohibited. The filing of such motions may form the basis for sanctions.



Sec. 500.710  Discovery.

    (a) In general. The availability of information and documents 
through discovery is subject to the agency's assertion of privileges 
available to OFAC and/or to the Treasury and to the application of all 
exemptions afforded the agency pursuant to the Freedom of Information 
Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(1) through (9)) and the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) 
to all facets of discovery, including interrogatories, depositions that 
seek the release of trade secrets, proprietary materials, third-party 
confidential and/or commercially sensitive materials, placement of 
information, documents and/or materials under seal and/or protective 
order, and interlocutory appeals to the Secretary or the Secretary's 
designee from any decision of the Administrative Law Judge.
    (b) Types of discovery. Parties may obtain discovery by one or more 
of the following methods: depositions upon oral examination or written 
questions; written interrogatories; production of documents or other 
evidence for inspection; and requests for admission. All depositions of 
Federal employees must take place in Washington, DC, at the U.S. 
Treasury Department or at the location where the Federal employee to be 
deposed performs his duties, whichever the Federal employee's supervisor 
or the Office of the Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control shall deem 
appropriate. All depositions of Federal employees shall be held at a 
mutually agreed upon date and time, and for a mutually agreed upon 
length of time.
    (c) Interrogatories. Respondent's interrogatories must be served 
upon the Office of the Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control within 20 
calendar days of respondent's written request for a hearing. The Office 
of Foreign Assets Control's interrogatories must be served within 30 
calendar days of the receipt of service of respondent's interrogatories 
or within 30 calendar days of the receipt of respondent's written 
request for a hearing if no interrogatories are filed by respondent by 
that time. Parties have 30 calendar days to respond to interrogatories 
from the date interrogatories are received. Interrogatories shall be 
limited to 20 questions only. Each subpart, section, or other 
designation of a part of a question shall be counted as one complete 
question in computing the permitted 20 question total. Where more than 
20 questions are served upon a party, the receiving party may determine 
which of the 20 questions the receiving party shall answer.
    (d) Scope. Parties may obtain discovery regarding any matter not 
privileged which has material relevance to the merits of the pending 
action. It is not a ground for objection that the information sought 
will be inadmissible at the hearing if the information sought appears 
reasonably calculated to lead to discovery of admissible evidence. The 
Administrative Law Judge may make any order which justice requires to 
ensure that requests are not unreasonable, oppressive, excessive in 
scope or unduly burdensome, including the issuance of an order to show 
cause why a particular discovery request is justified upon the motion of 
the objecting party.
    (e) Privileged matter. Privileged documents are not discoverable. 
Privileges include, inter alia, the attorney-client privilege, attorney 
work-product privilege, any government's or government agency's 
deliberative-process or classified information privilege, including 
materials classified pursuant to Executive Order 12958 (3 CFR, 1995 
Comp., p. 333) and any future Executive orders that may be issued 
relating to the treatment of national security information, and all 
materials and information exempted from release to the public pursuant 
to the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) and the Freedom of Information Act (5 
U.S.C. 552(b)(1) through (9)).

[[Page 489]]

    (f) Updating discovery. Whenever a party receives new or additional 
information or documentation, all information produced, and all 
information required to be provided pursuant to the discovery and 
hearing process, must automatically be updated. The Administrative Law 
Judge may impose sanctions for failure to update, including prohibiting 
opposition to claims or defenses raised, striking pleadings or staying 
proceedings, dismissing the action or any part thereof, rendering a 
judgment by default, and holding a party in contempt.
    (g) Time limits. All discovery, including all responses to discovery 
requests, shall be completed no later than 20 calendar days prior to the 
date scheduled for the commencement of the hearing. No exceptions to 
this time limit shall be permitted, unless the Administrative Law Judge 
finds on the record that good cause exists for waiving the requirements 
of this paragraph (g).



Sec. 500.711  Summary disposition.

    (a) In general. The Administrative Law Judge shall recommend that 
the Secretary or the Secretary's designee issue a final order granting a 
motion for summary disposition if the facts of the record show that:
    (1) There is no genuine issue as to any material fact; and
    (2) The moving party is entitled to a decision in its favor as a 
matter of law.
    (b) Filing of motions and responses. (1) Any party who believes that 
there is no genuine issue of material fact to be determined and that 
such party is entitled to a decision as a matter of law may move at any 
time for summary disposition in its favor of all or any part of the 
proceeding. Any party, within 20 calendar days after service of such a 
motion, or within such time period as allowed by the Administrative Law 
Judge, may file a response to such motion.
    (2) A motion for summary disposition must be accompanied by a 
statement of the material facts as to which the moving party contends 
there is no genuine issue. Such motion must be supported by documentary 
evidence, which may take the form of admissions in pleadings, 
stipulations, depositions, transcripts, affidavits, and any other 
evidentiary materials that the moving party contends support its 
position. The motion must also be accompanied by a brief containing the 
points and authorities in support of the moving party's arguments. Any 
party opposing a motion for summary disposition must file a statement 
setting forth those material facts as to which such party contends a 
genuine dispute exists. The opposition must be supported by evidence of 
the same type as that submitted with the motion for summary disposition 
and a brief containing the points and authorities in support of the 
contention that summary disposition would be inappropriate.
    (c) Hearing on motion. At the request of any party or on his or her 
own motion, the Administrative Law Judge may hear oral argument on the 
motion for summary disposition.
    (d) Decision on motion. Following receipt of a motion for summary 
disposition and all responses thereto, the Administrative Law Judge 
shall determine whether the moving party is entitled to summary 
disposition. If the Administrative Law Judge determines that summary 
disposition is warranted, he or she shall submit a recommended decision 
to that effect to the Secretary. If the Administrative Law Judge finds 
that no party is entitled to summary disposition, he or she shall make a 
ruling denying the motion.
    (e) Interlocutory appeal. Following receipt of the Administrative 
Law Judge's recommended decision relating to summary disposition, each 
party has the right to an interlocutory appeal to the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee. The interlocutory appeal must be filed within 20 
calendar days immediately following the Administrative Law Judge's 
recommended decision.
    (f) Partial summary disposition. If the Administrative Law Judge 
determines that a party is entitled to summary disposition as to certain 
claims only, the Administrative Law Judge shall defer submission of a 
recommended decision as to those claims. A hearing on the remaining 
issues must be ordered and those claims for which the Administrative Law 
Judge has determined that summary disposition is warranted will be 
addressed in the recommended

[[Page 490]]

decision filed at the conclusion of the hearing.



Sec. 500.712  Prehearing conferences and submissions.

    (a) Prehearing conferences. The Administrative Law Judge may, on his 
or her own motion, or at the request of any party for good cause shown, 
direct counsel for the parties to meet with him or her (in person, by 
telephone, or by teleconference) at a prehearing conference to address 
any or all of the following:
    (1) Simplification and clarification of the issues;
    (2) Stipulations, admissions of fact, and the contents, authenticity 
and admissibility into evidence of documents;
    (3) Matters of which official notice may be taken;
    (4) Limitation of the number of witnesses;
    (5) Summary disposition of any or all issues;
    (6) Resolution of discovery issues or disputes; and
    (7) Such other matters as may aid in the orderly disposition of the 
proceeding.
    (b) Prehearing orders. At, or within a reasonable time following the 
conclusion of, any prehearing conference, the Administrative Law Judge 
shall serve on each party an order setting forth any agreements reached 
and any procedural determinations made.
    (c) Prehearing submissions. Within 40 calendar days of the receipt 
of respondent's request for a hearing or at a time set by the 
Administrative Law Judge, the Office of Foreign Assets Control shall 
serve on the respondent and upon the Administrative Law Judge, the 
following:
    (1) Stipulations of fact, if any;
    (2) A list of the exhibits to be introduced at the hearing along 
with a copy of each exhibit; and
    (3) A list of witnesses to be called to testify at the hearing, 
including the name and address of each witness and a short summary of 
the expected testimony of each witness.
    (d) Deadline for respondent's and the other parties' submissions. 
Unless for good cause shown the Administrative Law Judge permits an 
extension of time to file, the respondent and the other parties shall 
have 20 calendar days from the date of the submission by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control of the items set forth in paragraph (c) of this 
section, and/or of any other party's service of items set forth in this 
paragraph (d), to serve upon the Administrative Law Judge and all 
parties, the following:
    (1) Its response to stipulations of fact, if any;
    (2) A list of the exhibits to be introduced at the hearing along 
with a copy of each exhibit; and
    (3) A list of witnesses to be called to testify at the hearing, 
including the name and address of each witness and a short summary of 
the expected testimony of each witness.
    (e) Effect of failure to comply. No witness may testify and no 
exhibits may be introduced at the hearing if such witness or exhibit is 
not listed in the prehearing submissions pursuant to paragraphs (c) and 
(d) of this section, except for good cause shown.



Sec. 500.713  Public hearings.

    (a) In general. All hearings shall be open to the public, unless the 
Administrative Law Judge, at his or her discretion, determines at any 
time prior to or during the hearing, that holding an open hearing would 
be contrary to the public interest. Within 20 calendar days of service 
of the notice of hearing from the Administrative Law Judge, any party 
may file with the Administrative Law Judge a request for a closed 
hearing, and any party may file a pleading in reply to such a request. 
Failure to file a request or a reply is deemed a waiver of any 
objections regarding whether the hearing will be public or closed.
    (b) Filing document under seal. (1) The Office of Foreign Assets 
Control may file any document or any part of a document under seal if 
disclosure of the document would be inconsistent with the protection of 
the public interest or if justice requires protection of any person, 
including a source or a party, from annoyance, threat, oppression, or 
undue burden or expense, or the disclosure of the information would be, 
or might reasonably lead to a disclosure, contrary to Executive Order 
12958 or

[[Page 491]]

other Executive orders concerning disclosure of information, U.S. 
Treasury Department regulations, the Privacy Act, or the Freedom of 
Information Act.
    (2) The Administrative Law Judge shall also safeguard the security 
and integrity of any documents under seal and shall take all appropriate 
steps to preserve the confidentiality of such documents or any parts 
thereof, including closing portions of the hearing to the public. 
Release of any information under seal, in any form or manner, is subject 
to the same sanctions and the exercise of the same authorities as are 
provided with respect to ex parte communications under paragraph (e)(5) 
of this section.
    (3) Should the Administrative Law Judge deny placement of any 
documents under seal or under protective order, any party, and any 
person whose documents or materials are at issue, may file an 
interlocutory appeal to the Secretary or the Secretary's designee. In 
such cases the Administrative Law Judge must not release or expose any 
of the records or documents in question to the public or to any other 
parties for a period of 20 calendar days from the date of the 
Administrative Law Judge's ruling, in order to permit a petitioner the 
opportunity either to withdraw the records and documents or to file an 
interlocutory appeal with the Secretary or the Secretary's designee 
requesting an order that the records be placed under seal.
    (4) Upon settlement, final decision, or motion to the Administrative 
Law Judge for good cause shown, all materials (including all copies) 
under seal or protective order shall be returned to the respective 
parties, except when it may be necessary to retain a record until the 
judicial process is completed.
    (5) Written notice of all requests for release of protected 
documents or materials shall be given to the parties registered with the 
Administrative Law Judge at least 20 calendar days prior to any 
permitted release and prior to any access not specifically authorized 
under the protective order. A copy of all requests for information, 
including the name, address, and telephone number of the requester, 
shall be provided to the petitioner. Each request for access to 
protected material must also provide the names, addresses, and telephone 
numbers of all persons represented by the requester, including those on 
whose behalf the requester seeks access to protected information. The 
Administrative Law Judge shall impose sanctions provided under 
Sec. 500.706(e)(4) and (e)(5) for failure to provide this information.



Sec. 500.714  Conduct of hearings.

    (a) In general--(1) Overview. Hearings shall be conducted to provide 
a fair and expeditious presentation of the relevant disputed issues and 
facts. Each party has the right to present its case or defense by oral 
and documentary evidence and to conduct such cross examination as may be 
required for full disclosure of the relevant facts.
    (2) Order of hearing. The Office of Foreign Assets Control shall 
present its case-in-chief first, unless otherwise ordered in advance by 
the Administrative Law Judge or otherwise expressly specified by law or 
regulation. The Office of Foreign Assets Control shall be the first 
party to present an opening statement and a closing statement and may 
make a rebuttal statement after the respondent's closing statement.
    (3) Stipulations. Unless the Administrative Law Judge directs 
otherwise, all stipulations of fact and law previously agreed upon by 
the parties, and all documents, the admissibility of which has been 
previously stipulated, will be admitted into evidence upon commencement 
of the hearing.
    (b) Transcript. A record of the hearing shall be made by manual or 
electronic means, including through the use of audio recorded diskettes 
or audio-visual cassettes, and transcribed unless the Administrative Law 
Judge rules otherwise. The transcript shall be made available to any 
party upon payment of the cost thereof. The Administrative Law Judge 
shall have authority to order the record corrected, either upon a motion 
to correct, upon a motion to stipulate by the parties for good cause 
shown, or following notice to the parties upon the Administrative Law 
Judge's own motion. The Administrative Law Judge shall serve notice upon 
all parties, at the addresses provided by the parties pursuant to

[[Page 492]]

Sec. 500.703(b)(1)(iii), that the certified transcript, together with 
all hearing exhibits and exhibits introduced but not admitted into 
evidence at the hearing, has been filed with the Administrative Law 
Judge.



Sec. 500.715  Evidence.

    (a) Admissibility. (1) Except as is otherwise set forth in this 
section, evidence that is relevant and material is admissible to the 
fullest extent authorized by the Administrative Procedure Act and other 
applicable law.
    (2) Evidence may be excluded if it is misleading or its probative 
value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice or 
confusion of the issues, or considerations of undue delay, waste of 
time, or needless presentation of cumulative evidence.
    (3) Evidence that would be inadmissible under the Federal Rules of 
Evidence need not be deemed or ruled to be inadmissible in a proceeding 
conducted pursuant to this subpart if such evidence is relevant and 
material, and not unduly repetitive.
    (b) Official notice. (1) Official notice may be taken of any 
material fact which may be judicially noticed by a United States 
district court.
    (2) All matters officially noticed by the Administrative Law Judge 
shall appear on the record.
    (3) If official notice is requested or taken of any material fact, 
the parties, upon timely request, shall be afforded an opportunity to 
object.
    (c) Duplicate copies. A duplicate copy of a document is admissible 
to the same extent as the original, unless a genuine issue is raised as 
to whether the copy is in some material respect not a true and legible 
copy of the original.
    (d) Objections to admissibility of evidence. Objections to the 
admissibility of evidence must be timely made and rulings on all 
objections must appear on the record. Failure to object to admission of 
evidence or to any ruling constitutes a waiver of the objection.
    (e) Rejected exhibits. The Administrative Law Judge shall retain 
rejected exhibits, adequately marked for identification, in the event of 
an interlocutory appeal.
    (f) Stipulations. The parties may stipulate as to any relevant 
matters of fact or to the authenticity of any relevant documents. Such 
stipulations may be received into evidence at a hearing and are binding 
on the parties with respect to the matters therein stipulated.
    (g) Depositions of unavailable witnesses. If a witness is 
unavailable to testify at a hearing, and that witness has testified in a 
deposition within the United States to which all parties to the 
proceeding have received timely notice and an opportunity to 
participate, a party may offer as evidence all or any part of the 
transcript of the deposition, including deposition exhibits. All costs 
of depositions shall be borne by the party requesting the deposition.



Sec. 500.716  Proposed decisions; recommended decision of Administrative Law Judge; final decision.

    (a) Proposed decisions. Any party may file with the Administrative 
Law Judge a proposed decision within 30 calendar days after the parties 
have received notice that the transcript has been filed with the 
Administrative Law Judge, unless otherwise ordered by the Administrative 
Law Judge.
    (b) Reliance on relevant authorities. The proposed decision must be 
supported by citation to relevant authorities and by transcript page 
references to any relevant portions of the record. At the same time the 
proposed decision is filed, a post-hearing brief may be filed in 
support. The post-hearing brief shall be filed either as part of the 
same document or in a separate document.
    (c) Reply briefs. Reply briefs may be filed within 15 calendar days 
after the date on which the parties' proposed decision is due. Reply 
briefs must be strictly limited to responding to new matters, issues, or 
arguments raised in another party's papers. A party who has not filed a 
proposed decision or a post-hearing brief may not file a reply brief.
    (d) Simultaneous filing required. Absent a showing of good cause for 
the use of another procedure, the Administrative Law Judge shall not 
order the filing by any party of any brief or reply brief in advance of 
the other party's filing of its brief.

[[Page 493]]

    (e) Recommended decision and filing of record. Within 45 calendar 
days after expiration of the time allowed for filing reply briefs, the 
Administrative Law Judge shall file with and certify to the Secretary or 
the Secretary's designee the record of the proceeding and the decision. 
The record must include the Administrative Law Judge's recommended 
decision, including a determination either that there was no violation 
by the person named in the prepenalty notice, or that there was a 
violation by the person named in the prepenalty notice, and the 
recommended monetary penalty and/or civil forfeiture and/or other 
disposition available to the Office of Foreign Assets Control. In 
addition to the proposed decision, the record must include all 
prehearing and hearing transcripts, exhibits, and rulings, and the 
motions, briefs, memoranda, and other supporting papers filed in 
connection with the hearing. The Administrative Law Judge shall have the 
recommended decision served upon each party.
    (f) Exceptions to the recommended decision. When the Administrative 
Law Judge has issued his recommended decision, the Administrative Law 
Judge or his representative shall contact each party by telephone at the 
telephone number provided by each party pursuant to 
Sec. 500.703(b)(1)(iii). Within 3 calendar days of telephoning the 
parties, the recommended decision shall be mailed by the Administrative 
Law Judge to the parties. A party may file written exceptions to the 
recommended decision with the Secretary or the Secretary's designee 
within 30 calendar days of the date the telephone call is placed by the 
Administrative Law Judge or his representative. A supporting brief may 
be filed at the time the exceptions are filed.
    (g) Final decision. The final decision of the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee shall be based on a review of the Administrative 
Law Judge's recommended decision and the entire record of the 
proceeding. The final written decision shall be provided to all parties.



Sec. 500.717  Judicial review.

    Any person may seek judicial review as provided under 5 U.S.C. 702 
for a penalty and/or forfeiture imposed pursuant to this part.



Sec. 500.718  Referral to United States Department of Justice; administrative collection measures.

pursuant to this part within 30 calendar days of the mailing of the 
written notice of the imposition of the penalty, the matter may be 
referred for administrative collection measures or to the United States

    (a) With respect to merchandise specified in Sec. 500.204, whether

directors of customs shall not accept or allow any:
    (1) Entry for consumption (including any appraisement entry, any 
entry of goods imported in the mails, regardless of value, or any other 
informal entries);
    (2) Entry for immediate exportation;
    (3) Entry for transportation and exportation;

[[Page 494]]

    (4) Withdrawal from warehouse;
    (5) Transfer or withdrawal from a foreign-trade zone; or

zone, until either;
    (i) A specific license pursuant to this chapter is presented; or,
    (ii) Instructions from the Foreign Assets Control, authorizing the 
transaction are received.
    (b) Whenever a specific license is presented to a director of 
customs in accordance with this section, one additional legible copy of 
the entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document with respect to the 
merchandise involved shall be filed with the director of customs at the 
port where the transaction is to take place. Each copy of any such 
entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document, including the 
additional copy, shall bear plainly on its face the number of the 
license pursuant to which it is filed. The original copy of the specific 
license shall be presented to the director in respect to each such 
transaction and shall bear a notation in ink by the licensee or person 
presenting the license showing the description, quantity, and value of 
the merchandise to be entered, withdrawn or otherwise dealt with. This 
notation should be so placed and so written that there will exist no 
possibility of confusing it with anything placed on the license at the 
time of its issuance. If the license in fact authorizes the entry, 
withdrawal or other transaction with regard to the merchandise, the 
director, or other authorized customs employee, shall verify the 
notation by signing or initialing it after first assuring himself that 
it accurately describes the merchandise it purports to represent. The 
license shall thereafter be returned to the person presenting it and the 
additional copy of the entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document 
shall be forwarded by the director to the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control, Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220.
    (c) Whenever a person shall present an entry, withdrawal or other 
appropriate document affected by this section and shall assert that no 
specific Foreign Assets Control license is required in connection 
therewith, the director of customs shall withhold action thereon and 
shall advise such person to communicate directly with the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control to request that instructions be issued to the 
director to authorize him to take action with regard thereto.

     Subpart A--Relation of This Part to Other Parts in This Chapter



Sec. 501.101  Relation of this part to other parts in this chapter.

    This part sets forth standard reporting and recordkeeping 
requirements and license application and other procedures governing 
transactions regulated pursuant to other parts codified in this chapter, 
as well as to economic sanctions programs for which implementation and 
administration are delegated to the Office of Foreign Assets Control. 
Substantive prohibitions and policies particular to each economic 
sanctions program are not contained in this part but are set forth in 
the particular part of this chapter dedicated to that program, or, in 
the case of economic sanctions programs not yet implemented in 
regulations, in the applicable executive order or other authority. 
License application procedures and reporting requirements set forth in 
this part govern transactions undertaken pursuant to general or specific 
licenses. The criteria for general and specific licenses pertaining to a 
particular economic sanctions program are set forth in subpart E of the 
individual parts in this chapter. Statements of licensing policy 
contained in subpart E of the individual parts in this chapter, however, 
may contain additional information collection provisions that require 
production of specified documentation unique to a given general license 
or statement of licensing policy.

Sec. 501.603  Reports on blocked property.

    (a) Who must report--(1) Holders of blocked property. Any person, 
including a financial institution, holding property blocked pursuant to 
this chapter must report. The requirement includes financial 
institutions that receive and block payments or transfers. This 
requirement is mandatory and applies to all U.S. persons (or persons 
subject to U.S. jurisdiction in the case of parts 500 and 515 of this 
chapter) who have in their possession or control any property or 
interests in property blocked pursuant to this chapter.
    (2) Primary responsibility to report. A report may be filed on 
behalf of a holder of blocked property by an attorney, agent, or other 
person. Primary responsibility for reporting blocked property, however, 
rests with the actual holder of the property, or the person exercising 
control over property located outside the United States, with the 
following exceptions: primary responsibility for reporting any trust 
assets rest with the trustee; and primary responsibility for reporting 
real property rests with any U.S. co-owner, legal representative, agent, 
or property manager in the United States. No person is excused from 
filing a report by reason of the fact that another person has submitted 
a report with regard to the same property, except upon actual knowledge 
of the report filed by such other person. Reports filed are regarded as 
privileged and confidential.

[[Page 497]]

    (3) Financial institutions. For purposes of this section, the term 
``financial institution'' shall include a banking institution, domestic 
bank, United States depository institution, financial institution, or 
U.S. financial institution, as those terms are defined in the applicable 
part of this chapter.
    (b) What must be reported--(1) Initial reports--(i) When reports are 
due. Reports are required to be filed within 10 business days from the 
date that property becomes blocked. This reporting requirement includes 
payments or transfers that are received and blocked by financial 
institutions.
    (ii) Contents of reports. Initial reports on blocked property shall 
describe the owner or account party, the property, its location, any 
existing or new account number or similar reference necessary to 
identify the property, actual or estimated value and the date it was 
blocked, and shall include the name and address of the holder, along 
with the name and telephone number of a contact person from whom 
compliance information can be obtained. If the report is filed by a 
financial institution and involves the receipt of a payment or transfer 
of funds which are blocked by the financial institution, the report 
shall also include a photocopy of the payment or transfer instructions 
received and shall confirm that the payment has been deposited into a 
new or existing blocked account which is labeled as such and is 
established in the name of, or contains a means of clearly identifying 
the interest of, the individual or entity subject to blocking pursuant 
to the requirements of this chapter.
    (2) Annual reports--(i) When reports are due. A comprehensive report 
on all blocked property held as of June 30 of the current year shall be 
filed annually by September 30. The first annual report is due September 
30, 1997.
    (ii) Contents of reports. Annual reports shall be filed using Form 
TDF 90-22.50, Annual Report of Blocked Property. Copies of Form TDF 90-
22.50 may be obtained directly from the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control, by calling the fax-on-demand service maintained by the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control at 202/622-0077, or by downloading the form 
from the ``OFAC Press Releases and Miscellaneous Documents'' file 
library (``FAC'72'__MISC'') located on the Government 
Printing Office's Federal Bulletin Board Online via GPO Access (Internet 
site: http://fedbbs.access.gpo.gov/libs/fac'72'__misc.htm). 
Photocopies of the report form may be used. Requests to submit the 
information required on Form TDF 90-22.50 in an alternative format 
developed by the reporter are invited and will be considered by the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control on a case-by-case basis. A copy of 
reports filed using form TDF 90-22.50 or in alternative formats must be 
retained for the reporter's records.
    (c) Reports on retained funds pursuant to Sec. 596.504(b) of this 
chapter. The reporting requirements set forth in this section are 
applicable to any financial institution retaining funds pursuant to 
Sec. 596.504(b) of this chapter, except that the account name shall 
reflect the name of the person whose interest required retention of the 
funds.
    (d) Where to report. All reports must be filed with the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, Compliance Programs Division, U.S. Treasury 
Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW.--Annex, Washington, DC 20220.

Sec. 501.604  Reports by U.S. financial institutions on rejected funds transfers.

    (a) Who must report. Any financial institution that rejects a funds 
transfer where the funds are not blocked under the provisions of this 
chapter, but where processing the transfer would nonetheless violate, or 
facilitate an underlying transaction that is prohibited under, other 
provisions contained in this chapter, must report. For purposes of this 
section, the term ``financial institution'' shall include a banking 
institution, depository institution or United States depository 
institution, domestic bank, financial institution or U.S. financial 
institution, as those terms are defined in the applicable part of this 
chapter.

[[Page 498]]

    (b) Rejected transfers. Examples of transactions involving rejected 
funds transfers include funds transfer instructions:
    (1) Referencing a blocked vessel but where none of the parties or 
financial institutions involved in the transaction is a blocked person;
    (2) Sending funds to a person in Iraq;
    (3) Transferring unlicensed gifts or charitable donations from the 
Government of Syria or Sudan to a U.S. person;
    (4) Crediting Iranian accounts on the books of a U.S. financial 
institution; and

    (c) When reports are due. Reports are required to be filed within 10 
business days by any financial institution rejecting instructions to 
execute payments or transfers involving underlying transactions 
prohibited by the provisions of this chapter.
    (d) What must be reported. The report shall include the name and 
address of the transferee financial institution, the date of the 
transfer, the amount of the payment transfer, and a photocopy of the 
payment or transfer instructions received, and shall state the basis for 
the rejection of the transfer instructions. The report shall also 
provide the name and telephone number of a contact person at the 
transferee financial institution from whom compliance information may be 
obtained.
    (e) Where to report. Reports must be filed with the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, Compliance Programs Division, U.S. Treasury 
Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW.--Annex, Washington, DC 20220.

dispute resolution proceedings in the United States on behalf of or

Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control but which are not yet 
codified in this chapter. It is the policy of the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control not to grant applications for specific licenses 
authorizing transactions to which the provisions of an outstanding 
general license are applicable. Persons availing themselves of certain 
general licenses may be required to file reports and statements in 
accordance with the instructions specified in those licenses. Failure to 
file such reports or statements will nullify the authority of the 
general license.
    (b) Specific licenses--(1) General course of procedure. Transactions 
subject to the prohibitions contained in this chapter, or to 
prohibitions the implementation and administration of which have been 
delegated to the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control, which 
are not authorized by general license may be effected only under 
specific licenses.
    (2) Applications for specific licenses. Applications for specific 
licenses to engage in any transactions prohibited by or pursuant to this 
chapter or sanctions programs that have been delegated to the Director 
of the Office of Foreign Assets Control for implementation and 
administration may be filed by letter with the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control. Any person having an interest in a transaction or proposed 
transaction may file an application for a license authorizing such 
transaction, but the applicant for a specific license is required to 
make full disclosure of all parties in interest to the transaction so 
that a decision on the application may be made with full knowledge of 
all relevant facts and so that the identity and location of the persons 
who know about the transaction may be easily ascertained in the event of 
inquiry.
    (3) Information to be supplied. The applicant must supply all 
information specified by relevant instructions and/or forms, and must 
fully disclose the names of all parties who are concerned with or 
interested in the proposed transaction. If the application is filed by 
an agent, the agent must disclose the name of his principal(s). Such 
documents as may be relevant shall be attached to each application as a 
part of such application, except that documents previously filed with 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control may, where appropriate, be 
incorporated by reference in such application. Applicants are required 
to supply their taxpayer identifying number pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 7701, 
which number may be used for purposes of collecting and reporting on any 
delinquent amounts arising out of the applicant's relationship with the 
United States Government. Applicants may be required to furnish such 
further information as is deemed necessary to a proper determination by 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Any applicant or other party in 
interest desiring to present additional information may do so at any 
time before or after decision. Arrangements for oral presentation

[[Page 500]]

should be made with the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (4) Effect of denial. The denial of a license does not preclude the 
reopening of an application or the filing of a further application. The 
applicant or any other party in interest may at any time request 
explanation of the reasons for a denial by correspondence or personal 
interview.
    (5) Reports under specific licenses. As a condition for the issuance 
of any license, the licensee may be required to file reports with 
respect to the transaction covered by the license, in such form and at 
such times and places as may be prescribed in the license or otherwise.
    (6) Issuance of license. Licenses will be issued by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control acting on behalf of the Secretary of the Treasury 
or licenses may be issued by the Secretary of the Treasury acting 
directly or through any specifically designated person, agency, or 
instrumentality.
    (7) Address. License applications, reports, and inquiries should be 
addressed to the appropriate division or individual within the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, or to its Director, at the following address: 
Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury, 1500

Sec. 501.806  Procedures for unblocking funds believed to have been blocked due to mistaken identity.

    When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a financial 
institution pursuant to the applicable regulations of this chapter and a 
party to the transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to 
mistaken identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked 
pursuant to the following administrative procedures:
    (a) Any person who is a party to the transaction may request the 
release of funds which the party believes to have been blocked due to 
mistaken identity.
    (b) Requests to release funds which a party believes to have been 
blocked due to mistaken identity must be made in writing and addressed 
to the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Compliance Programs Division, 
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW.--Annex, Washington, DC 20220, or sent by 
facsimile transmission to the Compliance Programs Division at 202/622-
1657.
    (c) The written request to release funds must include the name, 
address, telephone number, and (where available) fax number of the party 
seeking the release of the funds. For individuals, the inclusion of a 
social security number is voluntary but will facilitate resolution of 
the request. For corporations or other entities, the application should 
include its principal place of business, the state of incorporation or 
organization, and the name and telephone number of the appropriate 
person to contact regarding the application.
    (d) A request to release funds should include the following 
information, where known, concerning the transaction:
    (1) The name of the financial institution in which the funds are 
blocked;
    (2) The amount blocked;
    (3) The date of the blocking;
    (4) The identity of the original remitter of the funds and any 
intermediary financial institutions;
    (5) The intended beneficiary of the blocked transfer;
    (6) A description of the underlying transaction including copies of 
related documents (e.g., invoices, bills of lading, promissory notes, 
etc.);
    (7) The nature of the applicant's interest in the funds; and
    (8) A statement of the reasons why the applicant believes the funds 
were blocked due to mistaken identity.
    (e) Upon receipt of the materials required by paragraph (d) of this 
section, OFAC may request additional material from the applicant 
concerning the transaction pursuant to Sec. 501.602.
    (f) Following review of all applicable submissions, the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control will determine whether to release 
the funds. In the event the Director determines that the funds should be 
released, the Office of Foreign Assets Control will direct the financial 
institution to return the funds to the appropriate party.
    (g) For purposes of this section, the term ``financial institution'' 
shall include a banking institution, depository institution or United 
States depository institution, domestic bank, financial institution or 
U.S. financial institution, as those terms are defined in the applicable 
part of this chapter.
[62 FR 45101, Aug. 25, 1997, as amended at 62 FR 52495, Oct. 8, 1997]



Sec. 501.807  Procedures governing removal of names from appendices A, B, and C to this chapter.

    Persons seeking administrative reconsideration of their designation 
or that of a vessel as blocked, or who wish to assert that the 
circumstances resulting in the designation are no longer applicable, may 
seek to have the designation rescinded pursuant to the following 
administrative procedures:
    (a) A specially designated national (``SDN''), specially designated 
terrorist (``SDT''), specially designated narcotics trafficker 
(``SDNT''), or an agent of a foreign terrorist organization (``AFTO'') 
(collectively, a ``designated person''), or a person owning a majority 
interest in a blocked vessel, may request disclosure of the factual 
basis for designation and, subject to the limitations contained in 
paragraph (c) of this section, review factual materials relied upon by 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control in designating the person or 
vessel.

[[Page 502]]

    (b) Requests to review such information must be made in writing and 
addressed to the Director, Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. 
Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW.--Annex, 
Washington, DC 20220.
    (c) The Office of Foreign Assets Control will deny access to 
documents that are classified pursuant to Executive Order No. 12958 or 
similar Executive orders, or to documents that the Office deems 
privileged, or that the Office determines would not otherwise be 
available by law to a party in litigation with the Office. Similarly, 
the Office may redact materials to protect confidential or privileged 
information.
    (d) Following a review of the basis of designation, a designated 
person or person owning a majority interest in a blocked vessel may 
submit arguments or evidence that the person believes refutes the basis 
for designation, or may propose remedial steps on its part, including 
corporate reorganization, resignation of position(s) in a blocked 
organization or similar steps, which it believes would negate the basis 
for designation. A person owning a majority interest in a blocked vessel 
may propose the sale of the vessel, with the proceeds to be placed into 
a blocked interest-bearing account after deducting the costs incurred 
while the vessel was blocked and the costs of the sale.
    (e) After making a written submission, a designated person or person 
seeking the unblocking of a vessel may request a meeting with the 
Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control; however, such meetings 
are not required, and the Director may, at his discretion, decline to 
conduct such meetings prior to making a review pursuant to this section.
    (f) The information submitted by the designated person or person 
seeking the unblocking of a vessel will be reviewed by the Director, who 
may request clarifying, corroborating, or other additional information.
    (g) For purposes of judicial review, a decision pursuant to this 
section constitutes a final agency action.

owner thereof may have, or appears to have, assigned, transferred or 
otherwise disposed of any such security.



Sec. 515.203  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the ``effective date'' which is in violation 
of any provision of this part or of any regulation, ruling, instruction, 
license, or other direction or authorization thereunder and involves any

such ``effective date'' is null and void and shall not be the basis for 
the assertion or recognition of any interest in or right, remedy, power 
or privilege with respect to such property.
    (b) No transfer before the ``effective date'' shall be the basis for 
the assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege 
with respect to, or interest in, any property in which a designated 
national has or has had an interest since the ``effective date'' unless 
the person with whom such property is held or maintained had written

transfer prior to such ``effective date.''
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Secretary of the Treasury before, during or after a transfer shall

ruling, order, regulation, direction or instruction issued hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void, or 
unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void, or unenforceable pursuant to such 
provisions, as to any person with whom such property was held or 
maintained (and as to such person only) in cases in which such person is 
able to establish each of the following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such

[[Page 508]]

person, that such transfer required a license or authorization by or 
pursuant to the provisions of this part and was not so licensed or 
authorized or if a license or authorization did purport to cover the 
transfer, that such license or authorization had been obtained by 
misrepresentation or the withholding of material facts or was otherwise 
fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) Promptly upon discovery that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license or other direction or 
authorization thereunder, or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Secretary 
of the Treasury, or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation or the withholding of material 
facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained;

the person with whom such property was held or maintained filed with the 
Treasury Department, Washington, D.C., a report in triplicate setting 
forth in full the circumstances relating to such transfer. The filing of 
a report in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph shall not 
be deemed to be compliance or evidence of compliance with paragraphs (d) 
(1) and (2) of this section.
    (e) Unless licensed or authorized by Sec. 515.504 or otherwise 
licensed or authorized pursuant to this chapter any attachment, 
judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other judicial

since the ``effective date'' there existed the interest of a designated 
foreign country or national thereof.
    (f) For the purpose of this section the term property includes gold, 
silver, bullion, currency, coin, credit, securities (as that term is 
defined in section 2(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), 
bills of exchange, notes, drafts, acceptances, checks, letters of 
credit, book credits, debts, claims, contracts, negotiable documents of 
title, mortgages, liens, annuities, insurance policies, options and 
futures in commodities, and evidences of any of the foregoing. The term 
property shall not, except to the extent indicated, be deemed to include 
chattels or real property.

for collection or payment such instruments and credit the proceeds to 
interest-bearing accounts. Any transaction by any person incident to the 
negotiation, processing. presentment, collection or payment of such

or person;
    (2) The proceeds are held in a blocked account indicating the 
designated national who is the payee or owner of the instrument; and,
    (3) In the case of a blocked check or draft which has been purchased 
by the maker/drawer from the drawee bank (e.g., cashier's check, money 
order, or traveler's check) or which is drawn against a presently

this section, held in a customer's account by a registered broker/dealer 
in securities, may continue to be held for the customer by the broker/

invested in securities in accordance with Sec. 515.513. The interest 
paid on such accounts by a broker/dealer who does not elect to hold such

the agency in a blocked account in a domestic bank. The interest 
credited to such accounts by an agency which does not elect to hold such 
property in a domestic bank shall not be less than the maximum rate 
payable on the shortest time deposit available in any domestic bank in 
the state.
    (g) For purposes of this section, the term interest-bearing account

[[Page 510]]

FSLIC-insured institution (as defined in 12 CFR 561.1).
    (j) For the purposes of this section the term person includes the 
United States Government or any agency or instrumentality thereof, 
except where the agency or instrumentality submits to the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control an opinion of its General Counsel that either:
    (1) It lacks statutory authority to comply with this section, or
    (2) The requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section are 
inconsistent with the statutory program under which it operates.
[44 FR 11770, Mar. 2, 1979]



Sec. 515.206  Exemption of information and informational materials.

    (a) The importation from any country and the exportation to any 
country of information or informational materials as defined in 
Sec. 515.332, whether commercial or otherwise, regardless of format or 
medium of transmission, are exempt from the prohibitions and regulations 
of this part except for payments owed to Cuba for telecommunications 
services between Cuba and the United States, which are subject to the 
provisions of Sec. 515.542.
    (b) This section does not authorize transactions related to 
information or informational materials not fully created and in 
existence at the date of the transaction, or to the substantive or 
artistic alteration or enhancement of information or informational 
materials, or to the provision of marketing and business consulting 
services by a person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. 
Such prohibited transactions include, without limitation, payment of 
advances for information or informational materials not yet created and 
completed, provision of services to market, produce or co-produce, 
create or assist in the creation of information or informational 
materials, and payment of royalties to a designated national with 
respect to income received for enhancements or alterations made by 
persons subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to information 
or informational materials imported from a designated national.
    (c) This section does not authorize transactions incident to the 
transmission of restricted technical data as defined in section 779 of 
the Export Administration Regulations, 15 CFR parts 768-799, or to the 
exportation of goods for use in the transmission of any data. The 
exportation of such goods to designated foreign countries is prohibited, 
as provided in Sec. 515.201 of this part and Sec. 785.1 of the Export 
Administration Regulations.
    (d) This section does not authorize transactions related to travel 
to Cuba when such travel is not otherwise authorized under Sec. 515.560 
or by specific license.

    Example 1: A U.S. publisher ships 500 copies of a book to Cuba 
directly from Miami aboard a chartered aircraft, and receives payment by 
means of a letter of credit issued by a Cuban bank and confirmed by an 
American bank. These are permissible transactions under this section.
    Example 2: A Cuban party exports a single master copy of a Cuban 
motion picture to a U.S. party and licenses the U.S. party to duplicate, 
distribute, show and exploit in the United States the Cuban film in any 
medium, including home video distribution, for five years, with the 
Cuban party receiving 40% of the net income. All transactions relating 
to the activities described in this example are authorized under this 
section or Sec. 515.545.
    Example 3: A U.S. recording company proposes to contract with a 
Cuban musician to create certain musical compositions, and to advance 
royalties of $10,000 to the musician. The music written in Cuba is to be 
recorded in a studio that the recording company owns in the Bahamas. 
These are all prohibited transactions. The U.S. party is prohibited 
under Sec. 515.201 from contracting for the Cuban musician's services, 
from transferring $10,000 to Cuba to pay for those services, and from 
providing the Cuban with production services through the use of its 
studio in the Bahamas. No information or informational materials are in 
being at the time of these proposed transactions. However, the U.S. 
recording company may contract to purchase and import preexisting 
recordings by the Cuban musician, or to copy the recordings in the 
United States and pay negotiated royalties to Cuba under this section or 
Sec. 515.545.
    Example 4: A Cuban party enters into a subpublication agreement 
licensing a U.S. party to print and publish copies of a musicial 
composition and to sub-license rights of public performance, adaptation, 
and arrangement of the musical composition, with payment to be a 
percentage of income received. All transactions related to the 
activities described in this example are authorized under this section 
and Sec. 515.545, except

[[Page 511]]

for adaptation, and arrangement, which constitute artistic enhancement 
of the Cuban composition. Payment to the Cuban party may not reflect 
income received as a result of these enhancements.

Sec. 515.207  Entry of vessels engaged in trade with Cuba.

    Except as specifically authorized by the Secretary of the Treasury 
(or any person, agency or instrumentality designated by him), by means 
of regulations, rulings, instructions, licenses or otherwise,
    (a) No vessel that enters a port or place in Cuba to engage in the 
trade of goods or the purchase or provision of services, may enter a 
U.S. port for the purpose of loading or unloading freight for a period 
of 180 days from the date the vessel departed from a port or place in 
Cuba; and
    (b) No vessel carrying goods or passengers to or from Cuba or 
carrying goods in which Cuba or a Cuban national has an interest may 
enter a U.S. port with such goods or passengers on board.
[58 FR 34710, June 29, 1993]



Sec. 515.208  Restrictions on loans, credits and other financing.

    No United States national, permanent resident alien, or United 
States agency may knowingly make a loan, extend credit or provide other 
financing for the purpose of financing transactions involving 
confiscated property the claim to which is owned by a United States 
national, except for financing by a United States national owning such a 
claim for a transaction permitted under United States law.

[45 FR 32671, May 19, 1980]



Sec. 515.416  Professional research and similar activities.

    (a) Section 515.560(b) sets forth the criteria on which specific 
licenses for transactions related to travel to, from, and within Cuba 
may be issued for persons engaging in professional research and similar 
activities of a noncommercial, academic nature. Persons traveling to 
Cuba to engage in professional research must engage in a full work 
schedule in Cuba, and there must be a substantial likelihood of public 
dissemination of the product of their research. No transactions related 
to tourist or recreational travel within Cuba are authorized in 
connection with professional research, except those that are consistent 
with a full schedule of research activities.
    (1) Persons are considered to be engaging in professional research 
for purposes of this section:
    (i) If they are full-time professionals who travel to Cuba to do 
research in their professional areas and their research is specifically 
related to Cuba; or
    (ii) If they are acting on behalf of an organization with an 
established interest in international relations to collect information 
related to Cuba.
    (2) Similar activities include attendance by professionals with an 
established interest in Cuba at professional meetings where research on 
Cuba is shared, and travel for noncommercial research purposes 
specifically related to Cuba by persons who are working to qualify 
themselves academically as professionals (e.g., certain graduate degree 
candidates). Study visits to Cuba in connection with pre-college or 
undergraduate college course work are not within the scope of the term 
professional research and similar activities.
    (b) Categories of travel which do not qualify as professional 
research or similar activities and for which specific license requests 
will be denied include recreational travel; tourist travel; travel in 
pursuit of a hobby; general

[[Page 519]]

study tours; general orientation visits; student class field trips; 
youth camps; research for personal satisfaction only; travel by fishing 
or bird-watching groups and similar affinity groups; and any travel for 
an authorized research purpose, if the schedule of activities includes 
free time, travel, or recreation in excess of that consistent with a 
full work schedule of professional research and similar activities.
    (c) A group does not fall within the scope of the term professional 
research and similar activities merely because some members of the group 
could qualify individually for specific licensing under this category. 
For example, a specific license authorizing travel-related transactions 
by a fish biologist who travels to Cuba to engage in professional 
research does not authorize other persons who might travel with the fish 
biologist but whose principal purpose in travel is to engage in 
recreational or trophy fishing. The fact that such persons may engage in 
certain activities with, or under the direction of, the professional 
fish biologist, such as measuring or recording facts about their catch, 
does not bring these individuals' activities within the scope of 
professional research and similar activities.
    (d) A person will not qualify as engaging in professional research 
or similar activities merely because that person is a professional who 
plans to travel to Cuba. For example, a professor of history interested 
in traveling to Cuba for the principal purpose of learning or practicing 
Spanish or attending general purpose lectures devoted to Cuban culture 
and contemporary life would not qualify for a specific license. A 
doctoral candidate in economics traveling to Cuba to undertake research 
for a dissertation on the Cuban economy may qualify for a specific 
license for activities directly related to the research, but would not 
be authorized to stay an extra week in Cuba in order to attend a seminar 
on Cuban arts and crafts.

Sec. 515.417  Free-lance journalists.

    (a) Section 515.560(a)(2) authorizes travel transactions for 
journalists who are regularly employed in that capacity by a news 
reporting organization. For individuals who wish to travel to Cuba to do 
research for a free-lance article, specific licenses will be issued 
pursuant to Sec. 515.560(b) on a case-by-case basis upon submission of 
an adequate written application including the following documentation:
    (1) A detailed itinerary and a detailed description of the proposed 
research; and
    (2) A resume or similar document showing a record of publications.
    (b) To qualify for specific licensing pursuant to Sec. 515.560(b), 
the itinerary for the proposed research in Cuba for a free-lance article 
must demonstrate that the research constitutes a full work schedule that 
could not be accomplished in a shorter period of time.
[60 FR 54195, Oct. 20, 1995]



Sec. 515.418  Transactions related to telecommunications.

    (a) Section 515.542(c) provides that specific licenses may be issued 
for transactions incident to the receipt or transmission of 
communications between the United States and Cuba. Pursuant to 
Sec. 515.542(c), licenses may be issued for payment to Cuba for full or 
partial payment of amounts due Cuba as a result of the provision of 
telecommunications services provided such services and payments are 
approved by the Federal Communications Commission and are consistent 
with policy guidelines governing telecommunications between the United 
States and Cuba established to implement the Cuban Democracy Act of 
1992.
    (b) Section 515.560(b) provides, in part, that licenses will be 
issued in appropriate cases for transactions for travel related to the 
transmission of information. Pursuant to Sec. 515.560(b), licenses may 
be issued on a case-by-case basis for travel transactions related to

Sec. 515.540  Passengers' baggage.

    The importation of goods, otherwise prohibited by this part, which 
are brought into the United States as baggage by any person arriving in

Sec. 515.543  Proof of origin.

    Specific licenses for importation of goods of Cuban origin are 
generally not issued unless the applicant submits satisfactory 
documentary proof of the location of the goods outside Cuba prior to 
July 8, 1963 and of the absence of any Cuban interest in the goods at 
all times on or since that date. Since the type of document which would 
constitute satisfactory proof varies depending upon the facts of the 
particular case, it is not possible to state in advance the type of 
documents required. However, it has been found that affidavits, 
statements, invoices, and other documents prepared by manufacturers, 
processors, sellers or shippers cannot be relied on and are therefore 
not by themselves accepted by the Office of Foreign Assets Control as 
satisfactory proof of origin. Independent corroborating documentary 
evidence, such as insurance documents, bills of lading, etc., may be 
accepted as satisfactory proof.

a bona fide gift or
    (2) Of goods which are imported by a person entering the U.S., which 
are claimed to have been acquired in Cuba as a bona fide gift, subject 
to the conditions that:
    (i) The goods are of small value, and
    (ii) There is no reason to believe that there is, or has been since 
July 8, 1963, any direct or indirect financial or commercial benefit to 
Cuba or nationals thereof from the importation.

persons in whose names the account is held is a blocked national, where 
a non-blocked applicant claims beneficial ownership, as follows:
    (1) Joint bank account, without survivorship provisions. Specific 
licenses are issued unblocking only that amount with respect to which 
the applicant is able to prove beneficial ownership by documentary 
evidence independent of his assertions of interest.
    (2) Joint bank account, with survivorship provisions. Specific 
licenses are issued unblocking an amount equivalent to that portion of 
the total amount to which the applicant would be entitled if the total 
were divided evenly among the persons in whose names the account is held 
(e.g. 50 percent where there are two names; 33\1/3\ percent where there 
are three names). Such licenses generally are issued on the basis of 
applicant's assertions of beneficial ownership interest without the 
requirement of independent evidence.
    (3) Joint bank account in the names of a husband and wife, with 
survivorship provision. Specific licenses are issued unblocking portions 
of such accounts blocked by reason of the residence of one spouse in 
Cuba in favor of the non-blocked spouse under the policy stated in 
paragraph (a)(2) of this section. However, if 50 percent of the account 
has been unblocked under that policy, and the spouse who is the blocked 
Cuban national subsequently dies, the surviving spouse may be entitled 
to a license unblocking the remainder of the assets under Sec. 515.568.
    (b) [Reserved]

applicant is entitled.

include all of the following information:

include at least two of the following documents:
    (i) Passport;
    (ii) Voter registration card;
    (iii) Permanent resident alien card; or
    (iv) National identity card.

Other documents tending to show residency, such as income tax returns, 
may also be submitted in support of government documentation, but will 
not suffice in and of themselves;
    (2) Proof of entitlement under the insurance policy to be 
established by a copy of the policy and an affidavit from an appropriate 
officer of a recognized

[[Page 534]]

insurance company acknowledging the legitimacy of the beneficiary's

property, pursuant to the laws of the State governing abandoned

laws are custodial in nature, i.e., there is no permanent transfer of 
beneficial interest to the State. Licenses require the property to be 
held by the State in accounts which are identified as blocked under the 
regulations. A separate index of these blocked assets is required to be 
maintained by the State agency. The requirements of this section for 
identification and separate indexing of blocked assets apply to all 
blocked assets held by State agencies and any licenses issued prior to 
the effective date of this section hereby are amended by the 
incorporation of such requirements.

203(b)(2) of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act if the

unless specifically licensed.
    (c) The following transactions by persons licensed under paragraphs 
(a) and (b) of this section are authorized in connection with travel to, 
from, and within Cuba:
    (1) All transportation-related transactions ordinarily incident to 
travel to and from Cuba provided no more than $500 may be remitted to

by the Government of Cuba in conjunction with such travel.

expenses does not exceed $100 per day unless otherwise specifically 
licensed pursuant to the procedures contained in Sec. 515.801.
    (3) The purchase in Cuba, and importation as accompanied baggage, of 
merchandise with a foreign market value not to exceed $100 per person 
for personal use only. Such merchandise may not be resold. This 
authorization may be used only once in every six consecutive months. As 
provided in Sec. 515.206, informational materials are exempt from this 
restriction.
    (4) All transactions incident to the processing and payment of 
checks, drafts, traveler's checks, and similar instruments negotiated in 
Cuba by any person under the authority of this section.
    (d)(1) Unless otherwise specifically provided, neither this section 
nor any general or specific license contained in or issued pursuant to 
this section authorizes persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction to utilize 
charge cards, including but not limited to debit or credit cards, for 
expenditures in Cuba. Such transactions are prohibited by Sec. 515.201.
    (2) This section does not authorize the processing and payment by 
persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction, such as charge card issuers or 
intermediary banks, of charge card instruments (e.g., vouchers, drafts, 
or sales receipts) for expenditures in Cuba, and does not authorize a 
charge card issuer, or a foreign charge card firm owned or controlled by 
U.S. persons, to deal with a Cuban enterprise, a Cuban national, or a 
third-country party, such as a franchisee, in connection with the 
extension of charge card services to any person in Cuba.
    (e) Persons who travel in Cuba pursuant to provisions of this 
section shall not become nationals of Cuba solely because of such 
travel. This paragraph does not authorize any transaction prohibited by 
any other section of this part.

[[Page 538]]

    (f) This section does not authorize any person subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States to make any investment in Cuba, 
establish any branch or agency in Cuba, or transfer any property to 
Cuba, except transfers by or on behalf of individual or group travelers 
authorized pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section.
    (g)(1) Unless otherwise authorized to engage in travel-related 
transactions pursuant to this part, any person subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States, as defined in Sec. 515.329, who has 
traveled to Cuba shall be presumed to have engaged in travel-related 
transactions prohibited by this part. This presumption may be rebutted 
by a statement signed by the traveler providing specific supporting 
documentation that no transactions were engaged in by the traveler or on 
the traveler's behalf by any other person subject to U.S. jurisdiction, 
or that the traveler was fully sponsored or fully hosted by a third 
party not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and that any 
sponsorship or waiver of fees was not in exchange for services provided 
to Cuba or a Cuban national. The statement may be requested by any 
Federal law enforcement agency authorized to enforce the prohibitions of 
this Part, including the Office of Foreign Assets Control. The statement 
shall describe the circumstances of the travel and explain how it was 
possible to avoid entering into travel-related transactions such as 
payments for meals, lodging, transportation, bunkering of vessels or 
aircraft, visas, entry or exit fees, and gratuities. If the travel was 
fully sponsored or fully hosted, the statement shall state what party 
hosted or sponsored the travel and why. The statement shall also provide 
a day-to-day account of financial transactions entered into on behalf of 
the traveler by the host or sponsor, including but not limited to visa 
fees, room and board, local or international transportation costs and 
Cuban airport departure taxes. In the case of pleasure craft calling at 
Cuban marinas, the statement shall also address related refueling costs, 
mooring fees, club membership fees, provisions, cruising permits, local 
land transportation, and departure fees. In preparing the statement, 
travelers should be aware that the authorization contained in paragraph 
(c)(3) of this section concerning the purchase and importation of up to 
$100 of Cuban merchandise for personal use does not apply to fully 
sponsored or fully hosted travelers. Travelers fully hosted or fully 
sponsored by a person or persons not subject to the jurisdiction of the 
United States shall also provide appropriate supporting documentation 
demonstrating that they were fully hosted or fully sponsored, such as an 
original signed statement from their sponsor or host, specific to that 
traveler, confirming that the travel was fully hosted or fully sponsored 
and the reasons for the travel. All documentation described in this 
section is subject to the recordkeeping requirements, including the 
period during which records shall be available for examination, in 
Sec. 501.601 of this chapter.
    (2) If the traveler can establish that all necessary transactions 
involved fully sponsored or fully hosted travel within Cuba, such 
transactions do not violate the prohibitions of this part, provided 
that, except as provided in paragraph (g)(3) of this section:
    (i) No person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States has 
made any payments or transferred any property or provided any service in 
connection with such travel, including prepayment of or reimbursement 
for travel expenses, to any person or entity not subject to U.S. 
jurisdiction; and
    (ii) The travel is not aboard a direct flight between the United 
States and Cuba authorized pursuant to Sec. 515.566.
    (3) Travel shall be considered fully sponsored or fully hosted for 
purposes of this section notwithstanding a payment by a person subject 
to the jurisdiction of the United States for transportation to and from 
Cuba, provided that the carrier furnishing the transportation is not a 
Cuban national.
    (4) Persons planning to travel to Cuba consistent with this 
paragraph (g) may contact the Compliance Programs Division, Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, prior to their departure to ensure that their 
travel plans conform with the requirements for fully hosted or sponsored 
travel. Other inquiries concerning travel-related transactions should be 
addressed to the Licensing

Sec. 515.563  Family remittances to nationals of Cuba.

    (a) A person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States may 
make remittances to a national of Cuba resident in Cuba or in the 
authorized trade territory who is a close relative of the remitter or of 
the remitter's spouse, provided the U.S. remitter is 18 years of age or 
older and payments are made from unblocked sources for the support of 
the close relative (including any member of his or her household). In 
any consecutive 3-month period, the maximum amount a remitter may send 
to a close relative of the remitter or the remitter's spouse pursuant to 
this section is the lesser of:
    (1) $300 to the close relative in Cuba or the authorized trade 
territory; or
    (2) $300 to the household of the close relative in Cuba or the 
authorized trade territory, regardless of the number of close relatives 
comprising the household.

    Note to paragraph (a). The maximum amounts set forth in paragraph 
(a) of this section do not apply to family remittances to a Cuban 
national who has been specifically licensed as an unblocked national 
pursuant to Sec. 515.505(b), as family remittances to unblocked persons 
do not require separate authorization.

    (b) A remitter or remitter's spouse who is 18 years of age or older 
and who is engaged in authorized travel to Cuba may carry on his or her 
person no more than $300 in total family remittances, regardless of the 
number of eligible payees in Cuba, provided the remitter's family 
remittances will not exceed the maximum amount set forth in paragraph 
(a) of this section for any payee within the past 3 months.
    (c) In addition to travel-related remittances authorized pursuant to 
Sec. 515.564(c), remittances to any close relative of the remitter or of 
the remitter's spouse who is a national of Cuba or who is resident in 
Cuba are authorized for the purpose of enabling the payee to emigrate 
from Cuba to the United States, in an amount not exceeding $500, to be 
made only once to any payee, provided that the payee is a resident of 
and within Cuba at the time the payment is made.
    (d) The term close relative used with respect to any person means 
such person's spouse, child, grandchild, parent, grandparent, great 
grandparent, uncle, aunt, brother, sister, nephew, niece, first cousin, 
mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, sister-in-
law, brother-in-law, or spouse, widow or widower of any of the 
foregoing.

the following transactions by or on behalf of a Cuban national who 
enters the United States from Cuba on a visa issued by the State 
Department are authorized:
    (1) All transactions ordinarily incident to travel between the 
United States and Cuba, including the importation into the United States 
of accompanied baggage for personal use:
    (2) All transactions ordinarily incident to travel and maintenance 
within the United States, including payment of living expenses and the 
acquisition of goods for personal consumption in the United States;

[[Page 540]]

traveler's checks or other instruments negotiated incident to travel in 
the United States by any person under the authority of this section.

Cuba, or any debit to a blocked account.
    (c) Travel-related remittances by persons subject to U.S. 
jurisdiction to Cuba or a Cuban national, directly or indirectly, for 
transactions on behalf of a Cuban national, are authorized pursuant to 
paragraph (a) of this section only when made for the purpose of enabling 
the payee to emigrate from Cuba to the United States, including for the 
purchase of airline tickets and payment of visa fees or other travel-
related fees. Such remittances may not exceed $500, and, except for 
purposes of processing a letter of invitation or similar document on 
behalf of a Cuban national, may be transferred only after the Cuban 
national has received a valid visa issued by the State Department or 
other approved U.S. immigration documentation. Any amount remitted to 
Cuba directly or indirectly in conjunction with the processing of a 
letter of invitation or similar document must be deducted from the $500 
limit. Specific licenses may be issued to permit remittances by persons 
subject to U.S. jurisdiction to Cuba or a Cuban national, directly or 
indirectly, for transactions to facilitate non-immigrant travel by a 
Cuban national to the United States under circumstances where extreme 
humanitarian need is demonstrated, including terminal illness or severe 
medical emergency.

Sec. 515.566  Authorization of transactions incident to the provision of travel service, carrier service, and family remittance forwarding service.

    (a)(1) Authorization of travel service provider. The following

are ``travel service providers'' for purposes of this part: Travel 
agents, ticket agents, commercial and noncommercial organizations that 
arrange travel to Cuba; tour operators; persons arranging through 
transportation to Cuba; persons chartering an aircraft or vessel on 
behalf of others in Cuba; and persons arranging hotel accommodations, 
ground transportation, local tours, and similar travel activities on 
behalf of others in Cuba. Travel

[[Page 541]]

service providers must obtain authorization from the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control before providing services with respect to travel to Cuba. 
The list stated above should not be considered exhaustive, as other 
persons may be ``travel service providers'' within the meaning of this 
part. Opinions may be obtained from the Office of Foreign Assets Control 
concerning the applicability of this licensing requirement in individual 
cases.
    (2) Authorization of carrier service provider. Persons subject to 
U.S. jurisdiction wishing to provide carrier services by aircraft or 
vessels incidental to their non-scheduled flights or voyages to, from, 
or within Cuba are ``carrier service providers'' for purposes of this 
part. Carrier service providers must obtain authorization from the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control before providing services with respect 
to non-scheduled flights or voyages to, from, or within Cuba. Carriage 
to or from Cuba of any merchandise, cargo or gifts, other than those 
permitted to individual travelers as accompanied baggage, must also be 
authorized by licenses issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce.
    (3) Authorization of family remittance forwarders. Persons subject 
to U.S. jurisdiction, including persons who provide payment forwarding 
services and noncommercial organizations acting on behalf of donors, who 
wish to provide services in connection with the collection or forwarding 
of remittances authorized pursuant to this part must obtain 
authorization from the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Depository 
institutions, as defined in Sec. 515.333, are exempt from this 
requirement.
    (b) Terms and conditions of authorization to engage in service 
transactions. Authorization to engage in service transactions will be 
issued only upon the applicant's written affirmation and subsequent 
demonstration that it does not participate in discriminatory practices 
of the Cuban government against certain residents and citizens of the 
United States. Examples of such practices include, but are not limited 
to, charging discriminatory rates for air travel or requiring payment 
for services, such as hotel accommodations and meals, not desired, 
planned to be utilized, or actually utilized, based on such 
characteristics as race, color, religion, sex, citizenship, place of 
birth, or national origin. Authorization, whether a grant of provisional 
authorization or a license issued pursuant to this part, does not permit 
a travel or carrier service provider to provide services in connection 
with any individual's transactions incident to travel which are 
prohibited by this part.
    (c) Initial applications for licenses. The initial application for a 
license shall contain:
    (1) The applicant organization's name, address, telephone number, 
and the name of an official of the applicant organization responsible 
for its licensed services;
    (2) The state of applicant's organization, if a juridical entity, 
the address of its principal place of business and all branch offices, 
the identity and ownership percentages of all shareholders or partners, 
and the identity and position of all principal officers and directors;
    (3) Copies of any bylaws, articles of incorporation, partnership 
agreements, management agreements, or other documents pertaining to the 
organization, ownership, control, or management of the applicant; and
    (4)(i) In the case of applications for authorization to serve as 
travel or carrier service providers, a report on the forms and other 
procedures used to ensure that each customer is in full compliance with 
U.S. law implementing the Cuban embargo and does in fact qualify for one 
of the general licenses of Sec. 515.560, or has received a specific 
license from the Office of Foreign Assets Control authorizing the 
customer's travel-related transactions. In the case of a customer 
traveling pursuant to general license, the applicant must demonstrate 
that it requires each customer to attest, in a signed statement, to his 
qualifications for the particular general license claimed. The statement 
must provide facts supporting the customer's belief that he qualifies 
for the general license. In the case of a customer traveling under a 
specific license, the applicant must demonstrate that it requires the 
customer to furnish it with a copy of the license. The copy of the 
signed statement or the

[[Page 542]]

specific license must be maintained on file with the applicant, and/or
    (ii) In the case of applications for authorization as family 
remittance forwarders, a report on the forms, account books, and other 
recordkeeping procedures used to determine whether each customer has 
violated the terms of any authorization for remittances contained in or 
issued pursuant to this part, or sent remittances to persons other than 
close relatives as defined in Sec. 515.563(b); and the method by which 
remittances are sent to Cuba and the procedures used by the applicant to 
ensure that the remittances are received by the persons intended.
    (d) Required reports and recordkeeping. (1) Each specific license or 
grant of provisional authority shall require that the service provider 
furnish quarterly reports to the Department of the Treasury, Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, Washington, DC 20220, during the term of the 
license. The required content of such reports and their due dates shall 
be provided to the service provider in a letter authorizing the provider 
to commence services. Each such report will cover only the three-month 
period immediately preceding the date of the report.
    (2) While the names and addresses of individual travelers or 
remitters, the number and amount of each remittance, and the name and 
address of each recipient, as applicable, need not be submitted with 
quarterly reports, this information must be retained on file with all 
other information required by Sec. 515.601. These records must be 
furnished to the Office of Foreign Assets Control on demand pursuant to 
Sec. 515.602.
    (3) Presentation of passenger lists. Tour operators, persons

    Source: 63 FR 10331, Mar. 3, 1998, unless otherwise noted.



Sec. 515.701  Penalties.

    (a) Attention is directed to section 16 of the Trading with the 
Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. App. 16--``TWEA''), as adjusted pursuant to the 
Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-
410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), which provides that:
    (1) Persons who willfully violate any provision of TWEA or any 
license, rule, or regulation issued thereunder, and persons who 
willfully violate, neglect, or refuse to comply with any order of the 
President issued in compliance with the provisions of TWEA shall, upon 
conviction, be fined not more than $1,000,000 or, if an individual, be 
fined not more than $100,000 or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, 
or both; and an officer, director, or agent of any corporation who 
knowingly participates in such violation shall, upon conviction, be 
fined not more than $100,000 or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, 
or both.
    (2) Any property, funds, securities, papers, or other articles or 
documents, or any vessel, together with its tackle, apparel, furniture, 
and equipment, concerned in a violation of TWEA may upon conviction be 
forfeited to the United States.
    (3) The Secretary of the Treasury may impose a civil penalty of not 
more than $55,000 per violation on any person who violates any license, 
order, or regulation issued under TWEA.
    (4) Any property, funds, securities, papers, or other articles or 
documents, or any vessel, together with its tackle, apparel, furniture, 
and equipment, that is the subject of a violation subject to a civil 
penalty issued pursuant to TWEA shall, at the discretion of the 
Secretary of the Treasury, be forfeited to the United States Government.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in TWEA are subject to increase 
pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571 which, when read in conjunction with section 
16 of TWEA, provides that persons convicted of violating TWEA may be 
fined up to the greater of either $250,000 for individuals and 
$1,000,000 for organizations or twice the pecuniary gain or loss from 
the violation.
    (c) Attention is directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides that 
whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statements or representations, or 
makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined 
under title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, 
or both.



Sec. 515.702  Prepenalty notice; contents; respondent's rights; service.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the Trading 
with the Enemy Act, and the Director determines that further proceedings 
are warranted, he or she shall issue to the person concerned a notice of 
his or her intent to impose a monetary penalty and/or forfeiture. The 
prepenalty notice may be issued whether or not another agency has taken 
any action with respect to this matter.

[[Page 547]]

    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty and/or 
forfeiture.
    (2) Respondent's rights--(i) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice 
shall also inform the respondent of respondent's right to respond in 
writing to the notice within 30 calendar days of the mailing or other 
service of the notice pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section, as to 
why a monetary penalty and/or forfeiture should not be imposed, or, if 
imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than proposed.
    (ii) Right to request a hearing. The prepenalty notice shall also 
inform the respondent that, in the response provided for in paragraph 
(b)(2)(i) of this section, the respondent may also request a hearing 
conducted pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 554-557 to present the respondent's 
defenses to the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture and to offer 
any other information that the respondent believes should be included in 
the agency record prior to a final determination concerning the 
imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture. A failure to request a 
hearing within 30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice 
constitutes a waiver of a hearing.
    (iii) Right to request discovery prior to hearing. The prepenalty 
notice shall also inform the respondent of the right to discovery prior 
to a requested hearing. Discovery must be requested in writing in the 
response provided for in paragraph (b)(2)(i) of this section, jointly 
with respondent's request for a hearing. A failure to file a request for 
discovery within 30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice 
constitutes a waiver of prehearing discovery.
    (c) Service. The prepenalty notice, or any amendment or supplement 
thereto, shall be served upon the respondent. Service shall be presumed 
completed:
    (1) Upon mailing a copy by registered or certified mail, return 
receipt requested, addressed to the respondent at the respondent's last 
known address; or
    (2) Upon the mailing date stated in a date-stamped postal receipt 
presented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control with respect to any 
respondent who has refused, avoided, or in any way attempted to decline 
delivery, tender, or acceptance of the registered or certified letter or 
has refused to recover a registered or certified letter served; or
    (3) Upon personal service by leaving a copy with the respondent or 
an officer, a managing or general agent, or any other agent authorized 
by appointment or by law to accept or receive service for the respondent 
and evidenced by a certificate of service signed and dated by the 
individual making such service, stating the method of service and the 
identity of the individual with whom the prepenalty notice was left; or
    (4) Upon proof of service on a respondent who is not resident in the 
United States by any method of service permitted by the law of the 
jurisdiction in which the respondent resides or is located, provided the 
requirements of such foreign law satisfy due process requirements under 
United States law with respect to notice of administrative proceedings, 
and where applicable laws or intergovernmental agreements or 
understandings make the methods of service set forth in paragraphs 
(c)(1) through (3) of this section inappropriate or ineffective for 
service upon the nonresident respondent.



Sec. 515.703  Response to prepenalty notice; requests for hearing and prehearing discovery; waiver; informal settlement.

    (a) Deadline for response. The respondent shall have 30 calendar 
days from the date of mailing or other service of the prepenalty notice 
pursuant to Sec. 515.702(c) to respond thereto. The response, signed and 
dated, may be sent by facsimile transmission to the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control, at 202/622-1657, or by courier or other expedited means 
at any time during the 30-day response period if an original copy is 
sent concurrently via the U.S. Postal Service, registered or certified 
mail, return receipt requested. The date shown on the date-stamped 
registered or certified mail postal receipt will constitute the filing 
date of the response.
    (b) Form and contents of response--(1) In general. The written 
response need not be in any particular form, but shall

[[Page 548]]

contain information sufficient to indicate that it is in response to the 
prepenalty notice. It should be responsive to the allegations contained 
therein and set forth the nature of the respondent's defenses.
    (i) The response must admit or deny specifically each separate 
allegation of violation made in the prepenalty notice. If the respondent 
is without knowledge as to an allegation, the response shall so state, 
and such statement shall operate as a denial. Failure to deny, 
controvert, or object to any allegation will be deemed an admission of 
that allegation.
    (ii) The response must also set forth any additional or new matter 
or arguments the respondent seeks, or shall seek, to use in support of 
all defenses or claims for mitigation. Any defense or partial defense 
not specifically set forth in the response shall be deemed waived, and 
evidence thereon may be refused, except for good cause shown.
    (iii) The response must also accurately state, for each respondent, 
the respondent's full name and address for future service, together with 
current telephone and, if applicable, facsimile machine numbers and area 
code. If respondent is represented by counsel, counsel's full name and 
address, together with telephone and facsimile numbers and area code, 
may be provided in lieu of service information for the respondent. The 
respondent or respondent's counsel of record is responsible for 
providing timely written notice to the parties of any subsequent changes 
in the information provided.
    (2) Request for hearing and prehearing discovery; waiver. Any 
request for an administrative hearing and prehearing discovery must be 
made, if at all, in the written response made pursuant to this section 
and within the 30 calendar day period specified in Sec. 515.705(a). A 
failure to request a hearing and prehearing discovery in writing within 
30 calendar days of service of the prepenalty notice constitutes a 
waiver of a hearing and prehearing discovery. A response asserting that 
respondent reserves the right to request a hearing or prehearing 
discovery beyond the 30 calendar day period is ineffectual.
    (3) Informal settlement; response deadline. In addition or as an 
alternative to a written response to a prepenalty notice pursuant to 
this section, the respondent or respondent's representative may contact 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control as advised in the prepenalty notice 
to propose the settlement of allegations contained in the prepenalty 
notice and related matters. In the event of settlement at the prepenalty 
stage, the claim proposed in the prepenalty notice will be withdrawn, 
the respondent is not required to take a written position on allegations 
contained in the prepenalty notice, and the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control will make no final determination as to whether a violation 
occurred. The amount accepted in settlement of allegations in a 
prepenalty notice may vary from the civil penalty that might finally be 
imposed in the event of a formal determination of violation. In the 
event no settlement is reached, the 30 calendar day period specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section for written response to the prepenalty 
notice remains in effect unless additional time is granted by the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control. A failure to request a hearing and prehearing 
discovery in writing within 30 calendar days of service of the 
prepenalty notice constitutes a waiver of a hearing and prehearing 
discovery.



Sec. 515.704  Penalty imposition or withdrawal absent a hearing request.

    (a) No violation. If, in the absence of a timely hearing request, 
after considering any response to the prepenalty notice and any relevant 
facts, the Director determines that there was no violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
notify the respondent in writing of that determination and that no civil 
monetary penalty or civil forfeiture pursuant to this subpart will be 
imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, in the absence of a timely hearing request, after 
considering any response to the prepenalty notice and any relevant 
facts, the Director determines that there was a violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
issue a written notice of the imposition by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control of the civil monetary

[[Page 549]]

penalty and/or civil forfeiture and/or other available disposition with 
respect to that respondent.
    (1) The penalty/forfeiture notice shall inform the respondent that 
payment of the assessed penalty must be made within 30 calendar days of 
the mailing of the penalty notice.
    (2) The penalty/forfeiture notice shall inform the respondent of the 
requirement to furnish respondent's taxpayer identification number 
pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 7701 and that the Department intends to use such 
number for the purposes of collecting and reporting on any delinquent 
penalty amount in the event of a failure to pay the penalty imposed.



Sec. 515.705  Time and opportunity to request a hearing.

    (a) Deadline for hearing request. Within 30 calendar days of the 
date of mailing or other service of the prepenalty notice pursuant to 
Sec. 515.702(c), the respondent may file a written request for an agency 
hearing conducted pursuant to this section, to present the respondent's 
defenses to the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture and to offer 
any other information for inclusion, if found admissible pursuant to 
Sec. 515.715(a), into the agency record prior to a final determination 
concerning the imposition of a penalty and/or forfeiture.
    (b) Content of written response. If an agency hearing is requested 
by the respondent or by the respondent's counsel, the written hearing 
request must be accompanied by a written response to the prepenalty 
notice containing the information required by Sec. 515.703(b)(1)(i) 
through (iii). An untimely hearing request or written response to the 
prepenalty notice constitutes a waiver of a hearing.
    (c) Signature of filings. All hearing requests, motions, responses, 
interrogatories, requests for deposition transcripts, requests for 
protective orders, and all other filings relating to requests for and 
responses to discovery or pertaining to the hearing process, must be 
signed by each requesting party or, if represented, by each party's 
counsel.
    (d) Computation of time--(1) Final date on weekend or holiday. 
Whenever the final date for any requirement of this part falls on a 
Saturday, Sunday, Federal holiday, or other day on which the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control is not open for the transaction of business 
during normal working hours, the time for filing will be extended to the 
close of business on the next working day.
    (2) Closing time. The time for filing any document expires at 5:00 
p.m. local Washington, DC time on the last day when such filing may be 
made.

    (6) To hold scheduling or prehearing conferences as deemed 
necessary;
    (7) To consider and rule upon all procedural and other motions 
appropriate in an adjudicatory proceeding, provided that only the

motion to dismiss the proceeding or to decide any other motion that 
results in a final determination of the merits of the proceeding;
    (8) To prepare and present to the Secretary or to the Secretary's

    (c) Appearance and practice in a civil penalty hearing--(1) 
Appearance before an Administrative Law Judge by counsel. Any member in 
good standing of the bar of the highest court of any state, 
commonwealth, possession, or territory of the United States, or the 
District of Columbia may represent respondents upon written notice to 
the Administrative Law Judge in a civil penalty hearing.
    (2) Appearance before an Administrative Law Judge by a nonlawyer. A 
respondent may appear on his own behalf; a duly authorized member of a 
partnership may represent the partnership; a duly authorized officer, 
director, or employee of any corporation may represent that corporation 
upon written notice to the Administrative Law Judge in a civil penalty 
hearing.
    (3) Office of Foreign Assets Control representation. The Office of 
Foreign Assets Control shall be represented by the Office of General 
Counsel of the United States Department of the Treasury.
    (d) Conflicts of interest--(1) Conflict of interest in 
representation. No individual shall appear as counsel for a party in a 
proceeding conducted pursuant to this subpart if it reasonably appears 
that such representation may be materially limited by that counsel's 
responsibilities to a third person, or by counsel's own interests.
    (2) Corrective measures. The Administrative Law Judge may take 
corrective measures at any stage of a proceeding to cure a conflict of 
interest in representation, including the issuance of an order limiting 
the scope of representation or disqualifying an individual from 
appearing in a representative capacity for the duration of the 
proceeding.
    (e) Ex parte communications--(1) Definition. The term ex parte 
communication means any material oral or written communication not on 
the public record concerning the merits of an adjudicatory proceeding 
with respect to which reasonable prior notice to all parties is not 
given, on any material matter or proceeding covered by these regulations 
that takes place between:
    (i) A party to the proceeding, a party's counsel, or any other 
individual; and
    (ii) The Administrative Law Judge handling that proceeding, or the 
Secretary, or the Secretary's designee.
    (2) Exceptions. (i) A request to learn the status of the proceeding 
does not constitute an ex parte communication; and
    (ii) Settlement inquiries and discussions do not constitute ex parte 
communications.
    (3) Prohibition on ex parte communications. From the time a 
respondent requests a hearing until the date that the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee issues a final decision, no party, interested 
person, or counsel therefor shall knowingly make or cause to be made an 
ex parte communication. The Administrative Law Judge, the Secretary, and 
the Secretary's designee shall not knowingly make or cause to be made to 
a party, or to any interested person or counsel therefor, any ex parte 
communication.
    (4) Procedure upon occurrence of ex parte communication. If an ex 
parte communication is received by the Administrative Law Judge, the 
Administrative Law Judge shall cause all such written communication (or, 
if the communication is oral, a memorandum

[[Page 551]]

stating the substance of the communication) to be placed on the record 
of the proceeding and served on all parties. All parties to the 
proceeding shall have an opportunity, within 10 calendar days of the 
receipt of service of the notice or of receipt of a memorandum of the ex 
parte communication, to file responses thereto and to recommend any 
sanctions, in accordance with paragraph (e)(5) of this section, 
appropriate under the circumstances, or may file an interlocutory appeal 
with the Secretary or the Secretary's designee.
    (5) Sanctions. Any party to the proceeding, a party's counsel, or 
any other individual, who makes a prohibited ex parte communication, or 
who encourages or solicits another to make any such communication, may 
be subject to any appropriate sanction or sanctions imposed by the 
Administrative Law Judge for good cause shown, or that may be imposed 
upon interlocutory appeal taken to the Secretary or the Secretary's 
designee, including, but not limited to, exclusion from the hearing and 
an adverse ruling on the issue which is the subject of the prohibited 
communication.
    (f) Time limits. Except as provided elsewhere in this subpart, the 
Administrative Law Judge shall establish all time limits for filings 
with regard to hearings conducted pursuant to this subpart, except for 
decisions on interlocutory appeals filed with the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee.
    (g) Failure to appear. The unexcused failure of a respondent to 
appear in person at a hearing or to have duly authorized counsel appear 
in respondent's place constitutes a waiver of the respondent's right to 
a hearing and is deemed an admission of the violation alleged. Without 
further proceedings or notice to the respondent, the Administrative Law 
Judge shall enter a finding that the right to a hearing was waived, and 
the case shall be determined pursuant to Sec. 515.704.



Sec. 515.707  Interlocutory appeal.

    (a) Interlocutory appeals. When exceptions, requests for extensions, 
or motions, including motions for summary disposition, are denied by the 
Administrative Law Judge, interlocutory appeals may be taken to the 
Secretary or to the Secretary's designee for a decision.
    (b) Filing deadline. Interlocutory appeals must be filed no later 
than 15 calendar days after the matter being appealed has been decided 
in writing by the Administrative Law Judge. Parties may request that the 
Administrative Law Judge transmit the written decision to the parties by 
facsimile transmission, courier, or other expedited means in addition to 
service of the decision via the U.S. Postal Service by registered or 
certified mail, return receipt requested. Such requests must be 
supported by a written statement of need for expedited delivery. Timely 
filing of the interlocutory appeal shall be determined by the date 
stated on the date-stamped registered or certified mail postal receipt.
    (c) Manner of filing. Interlocutory appeals to the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee must be filed by facsimile transmission to 202/622-
1188, courier, or other expedited means, and sent concurrently by 
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the 
Secretary's Office, U.S. Treasury Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, 
NW., Washington, DC 20220, with the envelope prominently marked 
``Attention: OFAC Interlocutory Appeal.'' Expedited service must also be 
made upon the Administrative Law Judge and all parties or, if 
represented, their counsel, with certified copies sent concurrently by 
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.



Sec. 515.708  Settlement during hearing proceedings.

    Any party may, at any time during the hearing, unilaterally submit 
written offers or proposals for settlement of a proceeding to the 
Secretary or the Secretary's designee, at the address listed in 
Sec. 515.707(c). Submission of a written settlement offer does not 
provide a basis for adjourning or otherwise delaying all or any portion 
of a hearing. No settlement offer or proposal, nor any subsequent 
negotiation or resolution, is admissible as evidence in any hearing 
before this tribunal.

[[Page 552]]



Sec. 515.709  Motions.

    (a) Written motions. Except as otherwise specifically provided 
herein, an application or request for an order or ruling must be made by 
written motion, in typed format.
    (1) All written motions must state with particularity the relief 
sought and must be accompanied by a proposed order.
    (2) No oral argument may be held on written motions unless directed 
by the Administrative Law Judge. Written memoranda, briefs, affidavits, 
and other relevant material and documents may be filed in support of or 
in opposition to a motion.
    (b) Oral motions. A motion may be made orally on the record unless 
the Administrative Law Judge directs that such motion be made in 
writing.
    (c) Filing of motions--(1) In general. Motions by respondents must 
be filed with the Administrative Law Judge and served upon the Office of 
the Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Treasury Department, 
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20220, with the envelope 
prominently marked ``Urgent: Annex--Room 3133,'' unless otherwise 
directed by the Administrative Law Judge. Motions by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control must be filed with the Administrative Law Judge 
and with each respondent or respondent's counsel. Motions may also be 
concurrently sent by facsimile transmission, courier, or other expedited 
means.
    (2) Interlocutory appeals. Motions related to interlocutory appeals 
to the Secretary or the Secretary's designee must be filed by facsimile

prominently marked ``Attention: OFAC Interlocutory Appeal.'' Expedited 
service must also be made upon the Administrative Law Judge and all 
parties or, if represented, their counsel, with certified copies sent 
concurrently by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.
    (d) Responses. (1) Any party may file a written response to a motion 
within 20 calendar days of the date of its mailing, by registered or 
certified mail pursuant to this subpart. If directed by the 
Administrative Law Judge, the time period in which to respond may be 
shortened or extended. The Administrative Law Judge may allow each party 
to file a response before finally ruling upon any oral or written 
motion. The Administrative Law Judge may allow a rejoinder to responses 
for good cause shown. If a rejoinder is permitted, it must be filed 
within 15 calendar days of the date the response was filed and served 
upon all parties.
    (2) The failure of a party to oppose a written motion or an oral 
motion made on the record is deemed to be consent by that party to the 
entry of an order substantially in the form of any proposed order 
accompanying the motion.
    (e) Dilatory motions. Frivolous, dilatory, or repetitive motions are 
prohibited. The filing of such motions may form the basis for sanctions.



Sec. 515.710  Discovery.

    (a) In general. The availability of information and documents 
through discovery is subject to the agency's assertion of privileges 
available to OFAC and/or to the Treasury and to the application of all 
exemptions afforded the agency pursuant to the Freedom of Information 
Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(1) through (9)) and the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) 
to all facets of discovery, including interrogatories, depositions that 
seek the release of trade secrets, proprietary materials, third-party 
confidential and/or commercially sensitive materials, placement of 
information, documents and/or materials under seal and/or protective 
order, and interlocutory appeals to the Secretary or the Secretary's 
designee from any decision of the Administrative Law Judge.
    (b) Types of discovery. Parties may obtain discovery by one or more 
of the following methods: depositions upon oral examination or written 
questions; written interrogatories; production of documents or other 
evidence for inspection; and requests for admission. All depositions of 
Federal employees must take place in Washington, DC, at the U.S. 
Treasury Department or at

[[Page 553]]

the location where the Federal employee to be deposed performs his 
duties, whichever the Federal employee's supervisor or the Office of the 
Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control shall deem appropriate. All 
depositions of Federal employees shall be held at a mutually agreed upon 
date and time, and for a mutually agreed upon length of time.
    (c) Interrogatories. Respondent's interrogatories must be served 
upon the Office of the Chief Counsel, Foreign Assets Control within 20 
calendar days of respondent's written request for a hearing. The Office 
of Foreign Assets Control's interrogatories must be served within 30 
calendar days of the receipt of service of respondent's interrogatories 
or within 30 calendar days of the receipt of respondent's written 
request for a hearing if no interrogatories are filed by respondent by 
that time. Parties have 30 calendar days to respond to interrogatories 
from the date interrogatories are received. Interrogatories shall be 
limited to 20 questions only. Each subpart, section, or other 
designation of a part of a question shall be counted as one complete 
question in computing the permitted 20 question total. Where more than 
20 questions are served upon a party, the receiving party may determine 
which of the 20 questions the receiving party shall answer.
    (d) Scope. Parties may obtain discovery regarding any matter not 
privileged which has material relevance to the merits of the pending 
action. It is not a ground for objection that the information sought 
will be inadmissible at the hearing if the information sought appears 
reasonably calculated to lead to discovery of admissible evidence. The 
Administrative Law Judge may make any order which justice requires to 
ensure that requests are not unreasonable, oppressive, excessive in 
scope or unduly burdensome, including the issuance of an order to show 
cause why a particular discovery request is justified upon the motion of 
the objecting party.
    (e) Privileged matter. Privileged documents are not discoverable. 
Privileges include, inter alia, the attorney-client privilege, attorney 
work-product privilege, any government's or government agency's 
deliberative-process or classified information privilege, including 
materials classified pursuant to Executive Order 12958 (3 CFR, 1995 
Comp., p. 333) and any future Executive orders that may be issued 
relating to the treatment of national security information, and all 
materials and information exempted from release to the public pursuant 
to the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) and the Freedom of Information Act (5 
U.S.C. 552(b)(1) through (9)).
    (f) Updating discovery. Whenever a party receives new or additional 
information or documentation, all information produced, and all 
information required to be provided pursuant to the discovery and 
hearing process, must automatically be updated. The Administrative Law 
Judge may impose sanctions for failure to update, including prohibiting 
opposition to claims or defenses raised, striking pleadings or staying 
proceedings, dismissing the action or any part thereof, rendering a 
judgment by default, and holding a party in contempt.
    (g) Time limits. All discovery, including all responses to discovery 
requests, shall be completed no later than 20 calendar days prior to the 
date scheduled for the commencement of the hearing. No exceptions to 
this time limit shall be permitted, unless the Administrative Law Judge 
finds on the record that good cause exists for waiving the requirements 
of this paragraph (g).



Sec. 515.711  Summary disposition.

    (a) In general. The Administrative Law Judge shall recommend that 
the Secretary or the Secretary's designee issue a final order granting a 
motion for summary disposition if the facts of the record show that:
    (1) There is no genuine issue as to any material fact; and
    (2) The moving party is entitled to a decision in its favor as a 
matter of law.
    (b) Filing of motions and responses. (1) Any party who believes that 
there is no genuine issue of material fact to be determined and that 
such party is entitled to a decision as a matter of law may move at any 
time for summary disposition in its favor of all or any part of the 
proceeding. Any party, within 20 calendar days after service of

[[Page 554]]

such a motion, or within such time period as allowed by the 
Administrative Law Judge, may file a response to such motion.
    (2) A motion for summary disposition must be accompanied by a 
statement of the material facts as to which the moving party contends 
there is no genuine issue. Such motion must be supported by documentary 
evidence, which may take the form of admissions in pleadings, 
stipulations, depositions, transcripts, affidavits, and any other 
evidentiary materials that the moving party contends support its 
position. The motion must also be accompanied by a brief containing the 
points and authorities in support of the moving party's arguments. Any 
party opposing a motion for summary disposition must file a statement 
setting forth those material facts as to which such party contends a 
genuine dispute exists. The opposition must be supported by evidence of 
the same type as that submitted with the motion for summary disposition 
and a brief containing the points and authorities in support of the 
contention that summary disposition would be inappropriate.
    (c) Hearing on motion. At the request of any party or on his or her 
own motion, the Administrative Law Judge may hear oral argument on the 
motion for summary disposition.
    (d) Decision on motion. Following receipt of a motion for summary 
disposition and all responses thereto, the Administrative Law Judge 
shall determine whether the moving party is entitled to summary 
disposition. If the Administrative Law Judge determines that summary 
disposition is warranted, he or she shall submit a recommended decision 
to that effect to the Secretary. If the Administrative Law Judge finds 
that no party is entitled to summary disposition, he or she shall make a 
ruling denying the motion.
    (e) Interlocutory appeal. Following receipt of the Administrative 
Law Judge's recommended decision relating to summary disposition, each 
party has the right to an interlocutory appeal to the Secretary or the 
Secretary's designee. The interlocutory appeal must be filed within 20 
calendar days immediately following the Administrative Law Judge's 
recommended decision.
    (f) Partial summary disposition. If the Administrative Law Judge 
determines that a party is entitled to summary disposition as to certain 
claims only, the Administrative Law Judge shall defer submission of a 
recommended decision as to those claims. A hearing on the remaining 
issues must be ordered and those claims for which the Administrative Law 
Judge has determined that summary disposition is warranted will be 
addressed in the recommended decision filed at the conclusion of the 
hearing.



Sec. 515.712  Prehearing conferences and submissions.

    (a) Prehearing conferences. The Administrative Law Judge may, on his 
or her own motion, or at the request of any party for good cause shown, 
direct counsel for the parties to meet with him or her (in person, by 
telephone, or by teleconference) at a prehearing conference to address 
any or all of the following:
    (1) Simplification and clarification of the issues;
    (2) Stipulations, admissions of fact, and the contents, authenticity 
and admissibility into evidence of documents;
    (3) Matters of which official notice may be taken;
    (4) Limitation of the number of witnesses;
    (5) Summary disposition of any or all issues;
    (6) Resolution of discovery issues or disputes; and
    (7) Such other matters as may aid in the orderly disposition of the 
proceeding.
    (b) Prehearing orders. At, or within a reasonable time following the 
conclusion of, any prehearing conference, the Administrative Law Judge 
shall serve on each party an order setting forth any agreements reached 
and any procedural determinations made.
    (c) Prehearing submissions. Within 40 calendar days of the receipt 
of respondent's request for a hearing or at a time set by the 
Administrative Law Judge, the Office of Foreign Assets Control shall 
serve on the respondent and upon the Administrative Law Judge, the 
following:

[[Page 555]]

    (1) Stipulations of fact, if any;
    (2) A list of the exhibits to be introduced at the hearing along 
with a copy of each exhibit; and
    (3) A list of witnesses to be called to testify at the hearing, 
including the name and address of each witness and a short summary of 
the expected testimony of each witness.
    (d) Deadline for respondent's and the other parties' submissions. 
Unless for good cause shown the Administrative Law Judge permits an 
extension of time to file, the respondent and the other parties shall 
have 20 calendar days from the date of the submission by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control of the items set forth in paragraph (c) of this 
section, and/or of any other party's service of items set forth in this 
paragraph (d), to serve upon the Administrative Law Judge and all 
parties, the following:
    (1) Its response to stipulations of fact, if any;
    (2) A list of the exhibits to be introduced at the hearing along 
with a copy of each exhibit; and
    (3) A list of witnesses to be called to testify at the hearing, 
including the name and address of each witness and a short summary of 
the expected testimony of each witness.
    (e) Effect of failure to comply. No witness may testify and no 
exhibits may be introduced at the hearing if such witness or exhibit is 
not listed in the prehearing submissions pursuant to paragraphs (c) and 
(d) of this section, except for good cause shown.



Sec. 515.713  Public hearings.

    (a) In general. All hearings shall be open to the public, unless the 
Administrative Law Judge, at his or her discretion, determines at any 
time prior to or during the hearing, that holding an open hearing would 
be contrary to the public interest. Within 20 calendar days of service 
of the notice of hearing from the Administrative Law Judge, any party 
may file with the Administrative Law Judge a request for a closed 
hearing, and any party may file a pleading in reply to such a request. 
Failure to file a request or a reply is deemed a waiver of any 
objections regarding whether the hearing will be public or closed.
    (b) Filing document under seal. (1) The Office of Foreign Assets 
Control may file any document or any part of a document under seal if 
disclosure of the document would be inconsistent with the protection of 
the public interest or if justice requires protection of any person, 
including a source or a party, from annoyance, threat, oppression, or 
undue burden or expense, or the disclosure of the information would be, 
or might reasonably lead to a disclosure, contrary to Executive Order 
12958 or other Executive orders concerning disclosure of information, 
U.S. Treasury Department regulations, the Privacy Act, or the Freedom of 
Information Act.
    (2) The Administrative Law Judge shall also safeguard the security 
and integrity of any documents under seal and shall take all appropriate 
steps to preserve the confidentiality of such documents or any parts 
thereof, including closing portions of the hearing to the public. 
Release of any information under seal, in any form or manner, is subject 
to the same sanctions and the exercise of the same authorities as are 
provided with respect to ex parte communications under paragraph (e)(5) 
of this section.
    (3) Should the Administrative Law Judge deny placement of any 
documents under seal or under protective order, any party, and any 
person whose documents or materials are at issue, may file an 
interlocutory appeal to the Secretary or the Secretary's designee. In 
such cases the Administrative Law Judge must not release or expose any 
of the records or documents in question to the public or to any other 
parties for a period of 20 calendar days from the date of the 
Administrative Law Judge's ruling, in order to permit a petitioner the 
opportunity either to withdraw the records and documents or to file an 
interlocutory appeal with the Secretary or the Secretary's designee 
requesting an order that the records be placed under seal.
    (4) Upon settlement, final decision, or motion to the Administrative 
Law Judge for good cause shown, all materials (including all copies) 
under seal or protective order shall be returned to the respective 
parties, except when it

[[Page 556]]

may be necessary to retain a record until the judicial process is 
completed.
    (5) Written notice of all requests for release of protected 
documents or materials shall be given to the parties registered with the 
Administrative Law Judge at least 20 calendar days prior to any 
permitted release and prior to any access not specifically authorized 
under the protective order. A copy of all requests for information, 
including the name, address, and telephone number of the requester, 
shall be provided to the petitioner. Each request for access to 
protected material must also provide the names, addresses, and telephone 
numbers of all persons represented by the requester, including those on 
whose behalf the requester seeks access to protected information. The 
Administrative Law Judge shall impose sanctions provided under 
Sec. 515.706(e)(4) and (e)(5) for failure to provide this information.



Sec. 515.714  Conduct of hearings.

    (a) In general--(1) Overview. Hearings shall be conducted to provide 
a fair and expeditious presentation of the relevant disputed issues and 
facts. Each party has the right to present its case or defense by oral 
and documentary evidence and to conduct such cross examination as may be 
required for full disclosure of the relevant facts.
    (2) Order of hearing. The Office of Foreign Assets Control shall 
present its case-in-chief first, unless otherwise ordered in advance by 
the Administrative Law Judge or otherwise expressly specified by law or 
regulation. The Office of Foreign Assets Control shall be the first 
party to present an opening statement and a closing statement and may 
make a rebuttal statement after the respondent's closing statement.
    (3) Stipulations. Unless the Administrative Law Judge directs 
otherwise, all stipulations of fact and law previously agreed upon by 
the parties, and all documents, the admissibility of which has been 
previously stipulated, will be admitted into evidence upon commencement 
of the hearing.
    (b) Transcript. A record of the hearing shall be made by manual or 
electronic means, including through the use of audio recorded diskettes 
or audio-visual cassettes, and transcribed unless the Administrative Law 
Judge rules otherwise. The transcript shall be made available to any 
party upon payment of the cost thereof. The Administrative Law Judge 
shall have authority to order the record corrected, either upon a motion 
to correct, upon a motion to stipulate by the parties for good cause 
shown, or following notice to the parties upon the Administrative Law 
Judge's own motion. The Administrative Law Judge shall serve notice upon 
all parties, at the addresses provided by the parties pursuant to 
Sec. 515.703(b)(1)(iii), that the certified transcript, together with 
all hearing exhibits and exhibits introduced but not admitted into 
evidence at the hearing, has been filed with the Administrative Law 
Judge.



Sec. 515.715  Evidence.

    (a) Admissibility. (1) Except as is otherwise set forth in this 
section, evidence that is relevant and material is admissible to the 
fullest extent authorized by the Administrative Procedure Act and other 
applicable law.
    (2) Evidence may be excluded if it is misleading or its probative 
value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice or 
confusion of the issues, or considerations of undue delay, waste of 
time, or needless presentation of cumulative evidence.
    (3) Evidence that would be inadmissible under the Federal Rules of 
Evidence need not be deemed or ruled to be inadmissible in a proceeding 
conducted pursuant to this subpart if such evidence is relevant and 
material, and not unduly repetitive.
    (b) Official notice. (1) Official notice may be taken of any 
material fact which may be judicially noticed by a United States 
district court.
    (2) All matters officially noticed by the Administrative Law Judge 
shall appear on the record.
    (3) If official notice is requested or taken of any material fact, 
the parties, upon timely request, shall be afforded an opportunity to 
object.
    (c) Duplicate copies. A duplicate copy of a document is admissible 
to the same extent as the original, unless a genuine issue is raised as 
to whether the copy is in some material respect

[[Page 557]]

not a true and legible copy of the original.
    (d) Objections to admissibility of evidence. Objections to the 
admissibility of evidence must be timely made and rulings on all 
objections must appear on the record. Failure to object to admission of 
evidence or to any ruling constitutes a waiver of the objection.
    (e) Rejected exhibits. The Administrative Law Judge shall retain 
rejected exhibits, adequately marked for identification, in the event of 
an interlocutory appeal.
    (f) Stipulations. The parties may stipulate as to any relevant 
matters of fact or to the authenticity of any relevant documents. Such 
stipulations may be received into evidence at a hearing and are binding 
on the parties with respect to the matters therein stipulated.
    (g) Depositions of unavailable witnesses. If a witness is

Sec. 515.803  Customs procedures; merchandise specified in Sec. 515.204.

    (a) With respect to merchandise specified in Sec. 515.204 (including 
nickel-bearing materials presumptively subject thereto) whether or not 
such merchandise has been imported into the United States, collectors of 
customs shall not accept or allow any:
    (1) Entry for consumption (including any appraisement entry, any 
entry of goods imported in the mails, regardless of value, and any other 
informal entries);
    (2) Entry for immediate exportation;
    (3) Entry for transportation and exportation;
    (4) Withdrawal from warehouse;
    (5) Transfer or withdrawal from a foreign-trade zone; or
    (6) Manipulation or manufacture in a warehouse or in a foreign-trade 
zone, unless either:
    (i) The merchandise was imported prior to 12:01 a.m., February 7, 
1962, or
    (ii) A specific license pursuant to this part is presented, or
    (iii) Instructions from the Office of Foreign Assets Control, 
authorizing the transaction are received, or
    (iv) The original of an appropriate certificate of origin as defined 
in Sec. 515.536(d) is presented.
    (b) Whenever a specific license is presented to a collector of 
customs in accordance with this section, one additional legible copy of 
the entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document with respect to the 
merchandise involved shall be filed with the collector of customs at the 
port where the transaction is to take place. Each copy of any such 
entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document, including the 
additional copy, shall bear plainly on its face the number of the 
license pursuant to which it is filed. The original copy of the specific 
license shall be presented to the collector in respect of each such 
transaction and shall bear a notation in ink by the licensee or person 
presenting the license showing the description, quantity and value of 
the merchandise to be entered, withdrawn

[[Page 559]]

or otherwise dealt with. This notation should be so placed and so 
written that there will exist no possibility of confusing it with 
anything placed on the license at the time of its issuance. If the 
license in fact authorizes the entry, withdrawal or other transaction 
with regard to the merchandise the collector, or other authorized 
customs employee, shall verify the notation by signing or initialing it 
after first assuring himself that it accurately describes the 
merchandise it purports to represent. The license shall thereafter be 
returned to the person presenting it and the additional copy of the 
entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document shall be forwarded by 
the collector to the Foreign Assets Control.
    (c)(1) Whenever the original of an appropriate certificate or origin 
as defined in Sec. 515.536(d) is presented to a collector of customs in 
accordance with this section, an additional legible copy of the entry, 
withdrawal or other appropriate document with respect to the merchandise 
involved shall be filed with the collector of customs at the port where 
the transaction is to take place. Each copy of the entry, withdrawal, or 
other appropriate document, including the additional copy, shall bear 
plainly on its face the following statement: ``This document is 
presented under the provisions of Sec. 515.536 (c) of the Cuban Assets 
Control Regulations.'' The original of the certificate of origin shall 
not be returned to the person presenting it. It shall be securely 
attached to the additional copy required by this subparagraph and shall 
be forwarded by the collector to the Office of Foreign Assets Control, 
Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220. Collectors may forward such 
documents weekly or more often if the volume warrants.
    (2) If the original of an appropriate certificate of origin is 
properly presented to a collector of customs with respect to a 
transaction which is the first of a series of transactions which may be 
allowed in connection therewith under paragraph (a)(6)(iv) of this 
section (as, for example, where merchandise has been entered in a bonded 
warehouse and an appropriate certificate of origin is presented which 
relates to all of the merchandise entered therein but the importer 
desires to withdraw only part of the merchandise in the first 
transaction), the collector shall so note on the original of the 
appropriate certificate of origin and return it to the importer. In 
addition, the collector shall endorse his pertinent records so as to 
record what merchandise is covered by the appropriate certificate of 
origin presented. The collector may thereafter allow subsequent 
authorized transactions on presentation of the certificate of origin. 
The collector shall, with respect to each such transaction, demand an 
additional copy of each withdrawal or other appropriate document, which 
copy shall be promptly forwarded by the collector to the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, Treasury Department, Washington, DC 20220, with 
an endorsement thereon reading:

    This document has been accepted pursuant to Sec. 515.808(c) (2) of 
the Cuban Assets Control Regulations. Appropriate certificate of origin 
No.----------------from (country).


When the final transaction has been effected under the certificate of 
origin, the original shall be taken up and attached to the entry and 
forwarded as in this paragraph.
    (d) Whenever a person shall present an entry, withdrawal or other 
appropriate document affected by this section and shall assert that no 
specific Foreign Assets Control license or appropriate certificate of 
origin as defined in Sec. 515.536 (d) is required in connection 
therewith, the collector of customs shall withhold action thereon and 
shall advise such person to communicate directly with the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control to request that instructions be issued to the 
collector to authorize him to take action with regard thereto.

law (except this part) be deemed to authorize any transaction so 
prohibited.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to

Sec. 535.203  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the effective date which is in violation of 
any provision of this part or of any regulation, ruling, instruction, 
license, or other direction or authorization thereunder and involves any

date is null and void and shall not be the basis for the assertion or 
recognition of any interest in or right, remedy, power or privilege with 
respect to such property.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with 
respect to, or interest in, any property in which Iran has or has had an

of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and

Sec. 535.416  Letters of credit.

    (a) Question. Prior to the effective date, a bank subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States has issued or confirmed a documentary 
letter of credit for a non-Iranian account party in favor of an Iranian 
entity. Can payment be made upon presentation of documentary drafts?
    Answer. Yes, provided payment is made into a blocked account in a 
domestic bank.
    (b) Question. Prior to the effective date, a domestic branch of a 
bank organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States has 
issued or confirmed a documentary letter of credit for a non-Iranian 
account party in favor of an Iranian entity. Payment is to be made 
through a foreign branch of the bank. Can payment be made upon 
presentation of documentary drafts?
    Answer. Yes, provided payment is made into a blocked account in a 
domestic bank.
    (c) Question. Prior to the effective date, a foreign bank confirms a 
documentary letter of credit issued by its U.S. agency or branch for a 
non-Iranian account party in favor of an Iranian entity. Can the U.S. 
agency or branch of the foreign bank transfer funds to the foreign bank 
in connection with that foreign bank's payment under the letter of 
credit?
    Answer. No, the U.S. agency's payment is blocked, unless the foreign 
bank made payment to the Iranian entity prior to the effective date.
    (d) Question. Prior to the effective date, a bank subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States has issued or confirmed a documentary 
letter of credit for a non-Iranian account party in favor of an Iranian 
entity. The Iranian entity presents documentry drafts which are 
deficient in some detail. May the non-Iranian account party waive the 
documentary deficiency and authorize the bank to make payment?
    Answer. Yes, provided payment is made into a blocked account in a 
domestic bank. However, the non-Iranian account party is not obligated 
by these Regulations to exercise a waiver of documentary deficiencies. 
In cases where such a waiver is not exercised, the bank's payment 
obligation, if any, under the letter of credit remains blocked, as does 
any obligation, contingent or otherwise, of the account party. The 
documents are also blocked.
    (e) Question. Prior to the effective date, a bank subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States has issued or confirmed a documentary 
letter of credit for a non-Iranian account party in favor of an Iranian 
entity. The Iranian entity does not make timely, complete, or proper 
presentation of documents, and the letter of credit expires. Does there 
remain a blocked payment obligation held by the bank?
    Answer. No, but any documents held by the bank continue to be 
blocked. It is also possible that the account party still has a related 
obligation to the Iranian entity and any such obligation would be 
blocked.
    (f) Question. A bank subject to the jurisdiction of the United 
States has issued a letter of credit for a U.S. account party in favor 
of an Iranian entity. The letter of credit is confirmed by a foreign 
bank. Prior to or after the effective date, the Iranian entity presents 
documents to the U.S. issuing bank. Payment is deferred. After the

[[Page 574]]

effective date, the Iranian entity requests that the issuing bank either 
return the documents to the Iranian entity or transfer them to the 
confirming bank. Can the issuing bank do so?
    Answer. No. The U.S. issuing bank can neither return nor transfer 
the documents without a license. The documents constitute blocked 
property under the Regulations.
    (g) Question. Prior to the effective date, a bank subject to the 
jurisdiction of the United States has issued or confirmed a documentary 
letter of credit for a non-Iranian account party in favor of an Iranian 
entity. The Iranian entity presents documentary drafts which are 
deficient in some detail. May the non-Iranian account party waive the 
documentary deficiency and make payment?
    Answer. Yes, provided payment is made into a blocked account in a 
domestic bank. However, the non-Iranian account party is not obligated 
by these Regulations to exercise a waiver of documentary deficiencies. 
In cases where such a waiver is not exercised, the amount of the payment 
held by the account party is blocked.

Sec. 535.438  Standby letters of credit, performance or payment bonds and similar obligations.

    (a) Nothing contained in Secs. 535.212, 535.213 and 535.214 or in 
any other provision or revocation or amendment of any provision in this 
part affects the prohibition in Sec. 535.201 and the licensing procedure

    (b) No transfer requirement under Sec. 535.213 or Sec. 535.214 shall

Sec. 535.440  Commercially reasonable interest rates.

    (a) For purposes of Secs. 535.212 and 535.213, what is meant by 
``commercially reasonable rates'' depends on the particular 
circumstances. In the case of time or savings deposits, the 
``commercially reasonable rate'' is that rate provided for by the 
deposit agreement or applicable law. With respect to other obligations 
where the rate remains to be determined, it is presently expected that 
the ``commercially reasonable rate'' will be the rate agreed upon by the 
bank and Iran. However, where a deposit has in fact operated as a demand 
account under Treasury license, it would be appropriate to treat the 
deposit for purposes of Secs. 535.212 and 535.213 as a non-interest 
bearing account. Furthermore, in the event that the Iran-U.S Claims 
Tribunal (the ``Tribunal'') determines that interest additional to that 
agreed upon between the bank and Iran, or compensation or damages in 
lieu of interest, is due Iran, then that amount determined by the 
Tribunal to be owing to Iran shall be transferred as, or as part of, the 
interest at ``commercially reasonable rates'' required to be transferred 
pursuant to Secs. 535.212 and 535.213, regardless of any settlement 
between the bank and Iran or any release or discharge that Iran may have 
given the bank.
    (b) The contingent interest of Iran in any liability for further or 
additional interest, or compensation or damages in lieu of interest, 
that may be claimed in, and determined by the Tribunal, constitutes an 
interest of Iran in property for purposes of this part, and no agreement 
between Iran and any person subject to the jurisdiction of the United 
States is effective to extinguish such Iranian interest in property 
unless so specifically licensed by the Treasury Department.
    (c) For deposits held as time deposits, no penalty shall be imposed 
for early withdrawal. (In this connection, the Board of Governors of the 
Federal Reserve System has determined that application of the penalty 
for early withdrawal of time deposits transferred before maturity, 
pursuant to Sec. 535.213 is not required.)

Sec. 535.441  Settlement Agreement regarding small claims.

    (a) Award No. 483 of June 22, 1990 of the Iran-United States Claims 
Tribunal, approving and giving effect to the Settlement Agreement in 
Claims of Less Than $250,000, Case No. 86 and Case No. B38, dated May 
13, 1990 (the ``Settlement Agreement''), constitutes a determination by 
the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal of all claims encompassed therein 
within the meaning of Sec. 535.222(f) of this part. In accordance with 
Sec. 535.222(f), upon payment from the Security Account to the United 
States, the Settlement Agreement shall operate as a final resolution and 
discharge of all claims encompassed by the Settlement Agreement for all 
purposes. All such claims shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction 
of the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission on the terms established in 
the Settlement Agreement and by the provisions of Public Law 99-93, 
Title V, Aug. 16, 1985, 99 Stat. 437, applicable to en bloc settlements 
of claims of U.S. nationals against Iran.
    (b) Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the private claims subject 
to that agreement and this part are ``* * * claims of less than $250,000 
each, which have been filed with the Tribunal by the United States on 
behalf of U.S. nationals, which claims are included in Cases Nos. 10001 
through 12785, and which are still pending, * * * ,'' and ``* * * claims 
of U.S. nationals

of jurisdiction, * * * .'' Settlement Agreement, Art. I(A).

 Subpart E--Licenses, Authorizations and Statements of Licensing Policy



Sec. 535.502  Effect of license or authorization.

    (a) No license or other authorization contained in this part or 
otherwise issued by or under the direction of the Secretary of the 
Treasury pursuant to section 203 of the International Emergency Economic 
Powers Act, shall be deemed to authorize or validate any transaction 
effected prior to the issuance thereof, unless such license or other 
authorization specifically so provides.
    (b) No regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizes a 
transaction prohibited under this part unless the regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license is issued by the Treasury Department and 
specifically refers to this part. No regulation, ruling, instruction or 
license referring to this part shall be deemed to authorize any 
transaction prohibited by any provision of parts 500, 505, 515, 520 or 
530 of this chapter unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or 
license specifically refers to such provision.
    (c) Any regulation, ruling, instruction or license authorizing a 
transaction otherwise prohibited under this part has the effect of 
removing a prohibition or prohibitions in subpart B from the 
transaction, but only to the extent specifically stated by its terms. 
Unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or license otherwise 
specifies, such an authorization does not create any right, duty, 
obligation, claim, or interest in, or with respect to, any property 
which would not otherwise exist under ordinary principles of law.

    (4) The license applicant shall enter into an indemnification 
agreement acceptable to the United States providing for the applicant to 
indemnify the United States, in an amount up to 150 percent of the 
proceeds of sale, for any monetary loss which may accrue to the United 
States from a decision by the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal that the United 
States is liable to Iran for damages that are in any way attributable to 
the issuance of such license. In the event the applicant and those 
acting for or on its behalf are the only bidders on the property, the

standby letter of credit was opened or any other person from at any time 
contesting the legality of the demand from the Iranian entity or from 
raising any other legal defense to payment under the standby letter of 
credit.
    (f) This section does not affect the obligation of the various

judicial order barring payment by the issuing or confirming bank.
    (j) The extension or renewal of a standby letter of credit is 
authorized.
    (k) All specific licenses previously issued under this section to

license pertains to a standby letter of credit obligation that (1) is at 
issue in any claim brought before the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal 
(``Tribunal''), (2) is or was at issue in any claim that the Tribunal 
resolves, or has resolved, on the merits in favor of the account party, 
or (3) was at issue in a matter that was settled by the parties. The

[[Page 586]]

be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn or otherwise dealt in.
    (b) When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a 
financial institution pursuant to this section and a party to the 
transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to mistaken 
identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked pursuant to

ruling, instruction, license, or other authorization hereunder and 
involves any property held in the name of a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker or in which a specially designated narcotics

interest in or right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to such

respect to, or interest in, any property held in the name of a specially

narcotics trafficker has an interest, or has had an interest since such 
date, unless the person with whom such property is held or maintained, 
prior to such date, had written notice of the transfer or by any written 
evidence had recognized such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of

after a transfer shall validate such transfer or render it enforceable 
to the same extent that it would be valid or enforceable but for the 
provisions of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, this 
part, and any regulation, order, directive, ruling, instruction, or 
license issued hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void or 
unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any person with whom 
such property was held or maintained (and as to such person only) in 
cases in which such person is able to establish to the satisfaction of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the 
following:

provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to this part and was 
not so licensed or authorized, or if a license or authorization did 
purport to cover the transfer, that such license or authorization had 
been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) The person with whom such property was held or maintained filed 
with the Office of Foreign Assets Control a report setting forth in full 
the circumstances relating to such transfer promptly upon discovery 
that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license, or other direction or 
authorization hereunder; or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control; or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the 
withholding of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained.

    Note to paragraph  (d)(3): The filing of a report in accordance with 
the provisions of this paragraph (d)(3) shall not be deemed evidence 
that the terms of paragraphs (d)(l) and (2) of this section have been 
satisfied.

    (e) Unless licensed or authorized pursuant to this part, any 
attachment,

[[Page 587]]

judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other judicial 
process is null and void with respect to any property which, on or since 
the effective date, was held in the name of a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker or in which there existed an interest of a 
specially designated narcotics trafficker.



536.203  Holding of certain types of blocked property in interest-bearing accounts.

    (a)(1) Any person, including a U.S. financial institution, currently 
holding property subject to Sec. 536.201 which, as of the effective date 
or the date of receipt if subsequent to the effective date, is not being 
held in an interest-bearing account, or otherwise invested in a manner 
authorized by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (e.g., Sec. 536.504), 
shall transfer such property to, or hold such property or cause such 
property to be held in, an interest-bearing account or interest-bearing 
status in a U.S. financial institution as of the effective date or the 
date of receipt if subsequent to the effective date of this section, 
unless otherwise authorized or directed by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control.
    (2) The requirement set forth in paragraph (a)(1) of this section 
shall apply to currency, bank deposits, accounts, obligations, and any 
other financial or economic resources or assets, and any proceeds 
resulting from the sale of tangible or intangible property. If interest 
is credited to an account separate from that in which the interest-
bearing asset is held, the name of the account party on both accounts 
must be the same and must clearly indicate the specially designated 
narcotics trafficker having an interest in the accounts. If the account 
is held in the name of a specially designated narcotics trafficker, the 
name of the account to which interest is credited must be the same.
    (b) For purposes of this section, the term interest-bearing account 
means a blocked account in a U.S. financial institution earning interest 
at rates that are commercially reasonable for the amount of funds in the 
account. Except as otherwise authorized, the funds may not be invested 
or held in instruments the maturity of which exceeds 90 days.
    (c) This section does not apply to blocked tangible property, such 
as chattels, nor does it create an affirmative obligation on the part of 
the holder of such blocked tangible property to sell or liquidate the 
property and put the proceeds in a blocked account. However, the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control may issue licenses permitting or directing 
sales of tangible property in appropriate cases.



536.204  Evasions; attempts; conspiracies.

    Any transaction for the purpose of, or which has the effect of, 
evading or avoiding, or which facilitates the evasion or avoidance of, 
any of the prohibitions set forth in this part, is hereby prohibited. 
Any attempt to violate the prohibitions set forth in this part is hereby 
prohibited. Any conspiracy formed for the purpose of engaging in a 
transaction prohibited by this part is hereby prohibited.



536.205  Exempt transactions.

    (a) Personal communications. The prohibitions contained in this part 
do not apply to any postal, telegraphic, telephonic, or other personal 
communication, which does not involve the transfer of anything of value.
    (b) Information and informational materials. (1) The importation 
from any country and the exportation to any country of information or 
informational materials as defined in Sec. 536.306, whether commercial 
or otherwise, regardless of format or medium of transmission, are exempt 
from the prohibitions and regulations of this part.
    (2) This section does not authorize transactions related to 
information and informational materials not fully created and in 
existence at the date of the transactions, or to the substantive or 
artistic alteration or enhancement of informational materials, or to the 
provision of marketing and business consulting services by a U.S. 
person. Such prohibited transactions include, without limitation, 
payment of advances for informational materials not yet created and 
completed, provision of services to market, produce or co-

[[Page 588]]

produce, create or assist in the creation of information and 
informational materials, and payment of royalties to a specially 
designated narcotics trafficker with respect to income received for 
enhancements or alterations made by U.S. persons to information or 
informational materials imported from a specially designated narcotics 
trafficker.
    (3) This section does not authorize transactions incident to the 
exportation of technology that is not informational material as defined 
in Sec. 536.306(b)(1) or incident to the exportation of goods for use in 
the transmission of any information.
    (c) Travel. The prohibitions contained in this part do not apply to 
transactions ordinarily incident to travel to or from any country, 
including importation of accompanied baggage for personal use, 
maintenance within any country including payment of living expenses and 
acquisition of goods or services for personal use, and arrangement or 
facilitation of such travel including non-scheduled air, sea, or land 
voyages. Any transactions entered into by a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker while traveling in the United States that are 
outside the scope of those set forth in this paragraph are in violation 
of Sec. 536.201.

                       Subpart D--Interpretations



Sec. 536.401  Reference to amended sections.

    Except as otherwise specified, reference to any section of this part 
or to any regulation, ruling, order, instruction, direction, or license 
issued pursuant to this part shall be deemed to refer to the same as 
currently amended.



Sec. 536.402  Effect of amendment.

    Any amendment, modification, or revocation of any section of this 
part or of any order, regulation, ruling, instruction, or license issued 
by or under the direction of the Director of the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control shall not, unless otherwise specifically provided, be 
deemed to affect any act done or omitted to be done, or any civil or 
criminal suit or proceeding commenced or pending prior to such 
amendment, modification, or revocation. All penalties, forfeitures, and 
liabilities under any such order, regulation, ruling, instruction, or 
license shall continue and may be enforced as if such amendment, 
modification, or revocation had not been made.



Sec. 536.403  Termination and acquisition of an interest in blocked property.

    (a) Whenever a transaction licensed or authorized by or pursuant to 
this part results in the transfer of property (including any property 
interest) away from a specially designated narcotics

[[Page 591]]

trafficker, such property shall no longer be deemed to be property in 
which a specially designated narcotics trafficker has or has had an 
interest, or which is held in the name of a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker, unless there exists in the property another 
interest of a specially designated narcotics trafficker, the transfer of 
which has not been effected pursuant to license or other authorization.
    (b) Unless otherwise specifically provided in a license or 
authorization issued pursuant to this part, if property (including any 
property interest) is transferred or attempted to be transferred to a 
specially designated narcotics trafficker, such property shall be deemed 
to be property in which there exists an interest of the specially 
designated narcotics trafficker.



Sec. 536.404  Setoffs prohibited.

    A setoff against blocked property (including a blocked account), 
whether by a U.S. bank or other U.S. person, is a prohibited transfer 
under Sec. 536.201 if effected after the effective date.



Sec. 536.405  Transactions incidental to a licensed transaction.

    Any transaction ordinarily incident to a licensed transaction and 
necessary to give effect thereto is also authorized, except a 
transaction by an unlicensed, specially designated narcotics trafficker 
or involving a debit to a blocked account or a transfer of blocked 
property not explicitly authorized within the terms of the license.



Sec. 536.406  Provision of services.

    (a) Except as provided in Sec. 536.205, the prohibitions contained 
in Sec. 536.201 apply to services performed by U.S. persons, wherever 
located:
    (1) On behalf of, or for the benefit of, a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker; or
    (2) With respect to property interests of a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker.
    (b) Example: U.S. persons may not, except as authorized by the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control by or pursuant to this part, provide 
legal, accounting, financial, brokering, freight forwarding, 
transportation, public relations, educational, or other services to a 
specially designated narcotics trafficker. See Sec. 536.506, with 
respect to certain authorized legal services.



Sec. 536.407  Offshore transactions.

    The prohibitions contained in Sec. 536.201 apply to transactions by 
U.S. persons in locations outside the United States with respect to 
property which the U.S. person knows, or has reason to know, is held in 
the name of a specially designated narcotics trafficker, or in which the 
U.S. person knows, or has reason to know, a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker has or has had an interest since the effective 
date.



Sec. 536.408  Alleged change in ownership or control of an entity designated as a specially designated narcotics trafficker.

    (a) A change or alleged change in ownership or control of an entity 
designated as a specially designated narcotics trafficker shall not be 
the basis for removal of that entity from the list of specially 
designated narcotics traffickers unless, upon investigation by the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control and submission of evidence by the 
entity, it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Director of the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control that the transfer to a bona fide 
purchaser at arm's length is legitimate and that the entity no longer 
meets the criteria for designation under Sec. 536.312. Evidence 
submitted must conclusively demonstrate that all ties with other 
specially designated narcotics traffickers have been completely severed, 
and may include, but is not limited to, articles of incorporation; 
identification of new directors, officers, shareholders, and sources of 
capital; and contracts evidencing the sale of the entity to its new 
owners.
    (b) Any continuing substantial financial obligations on the part of 
the new owners to any specially designated narcotics traffickers, 
including long-term payment plans, leases, or rents, will be considered 
as evidence of continuing control of the entity by the specially 
designated narcotics trafficker. Purchase of a designated entity without 
ongoing substantial financial obligations to a specially designated 
narcotics trafficker may nonetheless be a

[[Page 592]]

basis for subsequent designation of the purchaser, if the transaction is 
determined materially to assist in or provide financial support for the 
narcotics trafficking activities of specially designated narcotics 
traffickers for purposes of Sec. 536.312(b)(2). For example, any 
acquisition transaction resulting in a direct cash transfer to or other 
enrichment of a specially designated narcotics trafficker could lead to 
designation of the purchaser. Mere change in name of an entity will not 
be considered as constituting a change of the entity's status.



Sec. 536.409  Credit extended and cards issued by U.S. financial institutions.

    The prohibition in Sec. 536.201 on dealing in property in which a 
specially designated narcotics trafficker has an interest prohibits U.S. 
financial institutions from performing under any existing credit 
agreements, including, but not limited to, charge cards, debit cards, or 
other credit facilities issued by a U.S. financial institution to a 
person designated under this part.



 Subpart E--Licenses, Authorizations, and Statements of Licensing Policy



Sec. 536.501  Effect of license or authorization.

specifically provided in such license or authorization.

transaction prohibited under this part unless the regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license is issued by the Office of Foreign Assets

instruction, or license referring to this part shall be deemed to 
authorize any transaction prohibited by any provision of this chapter 
unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or license specifically 
refers to such provision.
    (c) Any regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizing any 
transaction otherwise prohibited under this part has the effect of 
removing a prohibition or prohibitions contained in this part from the 
transaction, but only to the extent specifically stated by its terms.

obligation, claim, or interest in, or with respect to, any property 
which would not otherwise exist under ordinary principles of law.

account pursuant to this authorization may only be made to another

direction or authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to 
this part or otherwise under the Act. Section 206 of the Act, as 
adjusted pursuant to the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment 
Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), provides 
that:
    (1) A civil penalty of not to exceed $11,000 per violation may be 
imposed on any person who violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act;
    (2) Whoever willfully violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than 
$50,000, or, if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 
ten years, or both; and any officer, director, or agent of any 
corporation who knowingly participates in such violation may be punished 
by a like fine, imprisonment or both.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in the Act are subject to 
increase pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571.
    (c) Attention is also directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides 
that whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statements or representations or 
makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined 
under title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than five 
years, or both.
    (d) Violations of this part may also be subject to relevant 
provisions of other applicable laws.



Sec. 536.702  Prepenalty notice.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and the Director determines 
that further proceedings are warranted, he shall issue to the person 
concerned a notice of his intent to impose a monetary penalty. The 
prepenalty notice may be issued whether or not another agency has taken 
any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty.
    (2) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice also shall inform the 
respondent of respondent's right to respond to the notice within 30 days 
of its mailing as to why a monetary penalty should not

[[Page 595]]

be imposed, or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.



Sec. 536.703  Response to prepenalty notice.

    (a) Time within which to respond. The respondent shall have 30 days 
from the date of mailing of the prepenalty notice to respond in writing 
to the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (b) Form and contents of written response. The written response need 
not be in any particular form, but shall contain information sufficient 
to indicate that it is in response to the prepenalty notice. It should 
respond to the allegations in the prepenalty notice and set forth the 
reasons why the person believes the penalty should not be imposed or, if 
imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than proposed.
    (c) Informal settlement. In addition or as an alternative to a 
written response to a prepenalty notice pursuant to this section, the 
respondent or respondent's representative may contact the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control as advised in the prepenalty notice to propose 
the settlement of allegations contained in the prepenalty notice and 
related matters. In the event of settlement at the prepenalty stage, the 
prepenalty notice will be withdrawn, the respondent is not required to 
take a written position on allegations contained in the prepenalty 
notice, and the Office of Foreign Assets Control will make no final 
determination as to whether a violation occurred. The amount accepted in 
settlement of allegations in a prepenalty notice may vary from the civil 
penalty that might finally be imposed in the event of a formal 
determination of violation. In the event no settlement is reached, the 
30-day period specified in paragraph (a) of this section for written 
response to the prepenalty notice remains in effect unless additional 
time is granted by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.



Sec. 536.704  Penalty notice.

    (a) No violation. If, after considering any written response to the 
prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director of the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control determines that there was no violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
notify the respondent in writing of that determination and that no 
monetary penalty will be imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, after considering any written response to the 
prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director of the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control determines that there was a violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
issue a written notice of the imposition of the monetary penalty or 
other available disposition on the respondent.



Sec. 536.705  Administrative collection; referral to United States Department of Justice.

    In the event that the respondent does not pay the penalty imposed 
pursuant to this part or make payment arrangements acceptable to the 
Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control within 30 days of the 
mailing of the written notice of the imposition of the penalty, the 
matter may be referred for administrative collection measures or to the 
United States Department of Justice for appropriate action to recover 
the penalty in a civil suit in a Federal district court.

Sec. 537.101  Relation of this part to other laws and regulations.

    (a) This part is separate from, and independent of, the other parts 
of this chapter. Differing foreign policy and national security contexts 
may result in differing interpretations of similar language among the 
parts of this chapter. No license or authorization contained in or 
issued pursuant to those other parts authorizes any transaction 
prohibited by this part.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
this part relieves the involved parties from complying with any other 
applicable laws or regulations.



                         Subpart B--Prohibitions



Sec. 537.201  Prohibited new investment by U.S. persons.

investment in Burma by United States persons is prohibited.

    Note to Sec. 537.201:  Section 570 of the Act provides that the 
prohibition contained in this section may be waived, temporarily or 
permanently, by the President if he determines and certifies to Congress 
that the application of this sanction would be contrary to the national 
interests of the United States. Licenses are thus not available for 
purposes of authorizing transactions prohibited under this section in 
the absence of such a waiver determination and certification to 
Congress.



Sec. 537.202  Prohibited approval or other facilitation by a U.S. person of a foreign person's investment.

prohibited new investment in Burma under this part if engaged in by a 
United States person or within the United States is prohibited.



Sec. 537.203  Evasions; attempts; conspiracies.

    Except to the extent provided in regulations, orders, directives, or

or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any 
of the prohibitions set forth in this part is prohibited.



Sec. 537.204  Exempt transactions.

    Nothing in this part shall be construed to prohibit the entry into,

date is for the general supervision and guarantee of another person's 
performance of a contract for the economic development of resources 
located in Burma; or
    (b) Where such contract provides for payment, in whole or in part,

Sec. 537.401  Reference to amended sections.

    Except as otherwise specified, reference to any section of this part 
or to any regulation, ruling, order, instruction, direction, or license 
issued pursuant to this part shall be deemed to refer to the same as 
currently amended.



Sec. 537.402  Effect of amendment.

    Any amendment, modification, or revocation of any section of this 
part or of any order, regulation, ruling, instruction, or license issued 
by or under the direction of the Director of the Office of Foreign 
Assets Control shall not, unless otherwise specifically provided, be 
deemed to affect any act done or omitted to be done, or any civil or 
criminal suit or proceeding commenced or pending prior to such 
amendment, modification, or revocation. All penalties, forfeitures, and 
liabilities under any such order, regulation, ruling, instruction, or 
license shall continue and may be enforced as if such amendment, 
modification, or revocation had not been made.



Sec. 537.403  Economic development of resources located in Burma.

    The term economic development of resources located in Burma refers 
to activities pursuant to a contract the subject of which includes 
responsibility for the development or exploitation of resources located 
in Burma, including making or attempting to make those resources 
accessible or available for exploitation or economic use. Examples 
include contracts conferring rights to explore for, develop, extract, or 
refine petroleum, natural gas, or minerals in the ground in Burma; 
contracts to take over a mining operation in Burma; acquire a forest or 
agricultural area and exploit the timber or other crops; or acquire land 
and construct and run a hotel or factory on it. The term economic 
development of resources located in Burma is defined in Sec. 537.301 
specifically to exclude contracts for not-for-profit educational, health 
or other humanitarian programs or activities. See also Sec. 537.204 for 
the exception that applies to the entry into, performance of, or 
financing of a contract to sell or purchase goods, services or 
technology.



Sec. 537.404  Purchase of shares in economic development projects in Burma.

    The purchase of shares, including an equity interest, in the 
economic development of resources located in Burma, is prohibited when 
those shares are purchased after the effective date directly or 
indirectly from the Government of Burma or a nongovernmental entity in 
Burma, unless purchased pursuant to an agreement entered into prior to 
May 21, 1997. U.S. persons may purchase debt instruments issued by the 
Government of Burma or a nongovernmental entity in Burma, directly or 
indirectly, provided that such instruments are not convertible into 
equity, and do not provide for participation, including as collateral or 
security, in royalties, earnings, or profits in the economic development 
of resources located in Burma.



Sec. 537.405  Investments in entities involved in economic development projects in Burma.

    (a) The purchase of shares in a third-country company that is 
engaged in the economic development of resources located in Burma is 
prohibited by Sec. 537.201 where the company's profits are predominantly 
derived from the company's economic development of resources located in 
Burma.
    (b) If a U.S. person holds shares in an entity which subsequently 
engages exclusively or predominantly in the economic development of 
resources located in Burma or subsequently derives its income 
exclusively or predominantly from such economic development, the United 
States person is not required to relinquish its shares, but may not 
purchase additional shares. Divestment of the shares in such an entity 
to a foreign person -- constituting the facilitation of that foreign 
person's investment in Burma -- is authorized under general license 
pursuant to Sec. 537.504.



Sec. 537.406  General supervision and guarantee.

    Section 537.201 prohibits the entry by a U.S. person into a contract 
providing

[[Page 600]]

for the general supervision and guarantee of another person's 
performance of a contract that includes the economic development of 
resources located in Burma, if the U.S. person's contract is entered 
into on or after the effective date, unless undertaken pursuant to, or 
in exercise of rights under, a pre-effective date agreement. For the 
purposes of Sec. 537.201, only the entry into contracts for supervision 
and guarantee at the top level of project management, such as entry into 
a contract with a development project's sponsor or owner to become a 
prime contractor or general manager for a development project, will be 
considered new investment in Burma. By contrast, subcontracts to provide 
goods, services, or technology to a prime contractor or general manager 
of a development project are exempt from the prohibitions of this part 
pursuant to Sec. 537.204 unless:
    (a) The functional scope of the subcontractor's obligations is 
substantially similar to that of a prime contractor's or general 
manager's obligations; or
    (b) The consideration for such subcontracts includes a share of 
ownership in, or participation in the royalties, earnings or profits of, 
the economic development of resources located in Burma.



Sec. 537.407  Activities under pre-May 21, 1997 agreements.

    (a) Activities undertaken by a U.S. person pursuant to an agreement 
entered into prior to May 21, 1997, between the U.S. person and the 
Government of Burma or a nongovernmental entity in Burma are not 
prohibited new investments, as defined in Sec. 537.308.
    (b) A U.S. person who is a party to a pre-effective date agreement 
for the development of economic resources located in Burma may enter 
into subsequent agreements with foreign persons where such agreements 
are pursuant to, or in exercise of rights under, the pre-effective date 
agreement. The facilitation of foreign persons' investment in Burma 
under these circumstances is authorized pursuant to the general license 
contained in Sec. 537.504.
    (c) A U.S. person may not enter into a contract for the economic 
development of resources located in Burma after May 21, 1997, if 
pursuant to, or in exercise of rights under, a pre-effective date 
agreement, unless the contractual arrangement is specifically 
contemplated in the pre-effective date agreement.
    (d) The exercise of rights under pre-effective date agreements may 
include the exercise of options to extend the contract, depending on 
such factors as the degree of specificity with which the option to 
extend is described in the pre-effective date agreement, and the degree 
to which the party wishing to renew can enforce its decision to exercise 
the option.



Sec. 537.408  Sale or purchase of goods, services or technology.

    (a) Section 537.204 exempts from any prohibition under this part the 
entry into, performance of, or financing of a contract to sell or 
purchase goods, services, or technology, except:
    (1) Where the entry into a contract on or after the effective date 
is for the general supervision and guarantee of another person's 
performance of a contract for the economic development of resources 
located in Burma; or
    (2) Where such contract provides for payment, in whole or in part, 
in:
    (i) Shares of ownership, including an equity interest, in the 
economic development of resources located in Burma; or
    (ii) Participation in royalties, earnings, or profits in the 
economic development of resources located in Burma.
    (b) Examples: The following examples are based upon the assumption 
that neither Sec. 537.204(a) nor Sec. 537.204(b) applies.
    (1) A U.S. person may market goods or services in Burma through a 
sales representative or sales agent, or through a U.S. person or 
subsidiary established and operating in Burma before May 21, 1997, or 
through any established foreign (including Burmese) distributorship. The 
U.S. person may not, however, establish and operate a new business, 
branch, office or showroom in Burma to market such goods or services or 
facilitate the establishment of a new foreign entity to do so. This 
would

[[Page 601]]

constitute the development of a commercial resource.
    (2) A U.S. person may rent, lease or purchase space in existing 
buildings in connection with the continued operation of a business in 
operation prior to the effective date. It may change locations, modify 
and renovate existing space and upgrade machinery or equipment. Unless 
pursuant to a pre-effective date agreement or the exercise of specific 
rights under such agreement, however, the U.S. person may not expand its 
business operations by opening additional stores, branches, offices or 
showrooms beyond the number that were in existence immediately prior to 
May 21, 1997. The U.S. person may not construct a new commercial 
building to house its business as this would constitute the economic 
development of land and commercial resources in Burma.
    (3) A U.S. person involved in exempt activities may hire and train 
Burmese employees to carry out such activities. The employment of 
personnel in Burma under these circumstances is considered the purchase 
of employment services which is exempt from prohibition under 
Sec. 537.204. Any training incidental to the performance of the 
employee's services is likewise exempt. For example, a U.S. person 
engaged in the sale of copy machines may hire and train a Burmese 
employee to carry out activities pursuant to such sales, including 
office support personnel, personnel to provide after-sale service and 
maintenance in accordance with the terms of a purchase or lease 
agreement, sales representatives and supervisory personnel. A U.S. 
person may not, however, open a business after the effective date, the 
purpose of which is the sale of vocational skills training in the 
maintenance of copy machines, as this would constitute the economic 
development of human resources in Burma.
    (4) Contracts for the purchase or sale of services incident to the 
registration and renewal of patents, trademarks and copyrights are not 
prohibited by this part.
    (5) A U.S. bank is allowed to provide trade financing as a service 
either to the Government of Burma or to nongovernmental entities in 
Burma, but cannot provide them loans earmarked for economic development 
of resources in Burma if loan repayment is secured by the project. A 
U.S. bank can provide development project financing as a service, so 
long as the financing instruments are not convertible into equity, and 
do not provide for participation, including as collateral or security, 
in royalties, earnings, or profits in the economic development of 
resources located in Burma.



Sec. 537.409  Approval or other facilitation of a foreign person's investment.

    (a) The prohibition contained in Sec. 537.202 against approval or 
other facilitation of a foreign person's investment in Burma bars any 
action by a U.S. person that assists or supports a foreign person's 
activity that would constitute prohibited new investment under 
Sec. 537.201 if engaged in by a U.S. person. This facilitation 
prohibition is subject to the exemption for trade in goods, services and 
technology set forth in Sec. 537.204.
    (b) Examples: (1) A U.S. corporation is prohibited from brokering, 
financing, guaranteeing, or approving the entry by any foreign person, 
including a foreign affiliate, into a contract for the development of, 
e.g., a natural gas field, a tourist hotel complex, or a rubber 
plantation in Burma, unless pursuant to the affiliate's exercise of 
rights under an agreement entered into prior to the effective date. An 
independent U.S. contractor, however, may perform brokerage, financing, 
or guarantee services if under a service contract meeting the conditions 
of Sec. 537.204.
    (2) The sale to a foreign person of a U.S. person's equity or income 
interest in a development project in Burma constitutes facilitation of 
that foreign person's investment in Burma, unless pursuant to a pre-
effective date agreement. Such a sale, however, is authorized by general 
license under Sec. 537.504.
    (3) A U.S. national or permanent resident alien employed in Burma or 
in a third country by a foreign person may participate in any decision-
making role in an activity by the foreign person that includes economic 
development of resources located in Burma as exempt employment services 
pursuant to Sec. 537.204, unless such services are undertaken pursuant 
to a post-effective

[[Page 602]]

date agreement between the foreign person and the Government of Burma or 
a nongovernmental entity in Burma and:
    (i) involve the general supervision and guarantee of the foreign 
person's performance of a contract for the economic development of 
resources located in Burma, or
    (ii) where the individual U.S. person's compensation is provided 
for, in whole or in part, from shares of ownership in the development 
project or participation in royalties, earnings, or profits in the 
development project.



 Subpart E--Licenses, Authorizations, and Statements of Licensing Policy



Sec. 537.501  General and specific licensing procedures.

    For provisions relating to licensing procedures, see subpart C of 
part 501 of this chapter.



Sec. 537.502  Effect of license or authorization.

    (a) No license or other authorization contained in this part, or 
otherwise issued by or under the direction of the Director of the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control, shall be deemed to authorize or validate any 
transaction effected prior to the issuance of the license, unless 
specifically provided in such license or authorization.
    (b) No regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizes any 
transaction prohibited under this part unless the regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license is issued by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control and specifically refers to this part. No regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license referring to this part shall be deemed to 
authorize any transaction prohibited by any provision of this chapter 
unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or license specifically 
refers to such provision.
    (c) Any regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizing any 
transaction otherwise prohibited under this part has the effect of 
removing a prohibition or prohibitions contained in this part from the 
transaction, but only to the extent specifically stated by its terms. 
Unless the regulation, ruling, instruction, or license otherwise 
specifies, such an authorization does not create any right, duty, 
obligation, claim, or interest in, or with respect to, any property 
which would not otherwise exist under ordinary principles of law.



Sec. 537.503  Exclusion from licenses and authorizations.

    The Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control reserves the 
right to exclude any person, property, or transaction from the operation 
of any license, or from the privileges therein conferred, or to restrict 
the applicability thereof with respect to particular persons, property, 
transactions, or classes thereof. Such action shall be binding upon all 
persons receiving actual or constructive notice of such exclusion or 
restriction.



Sec. 537.504  Divestiture of U.S. person's equity investment in Burma.

    Notwithstanding the prohibition in Sec. 537.202 against the 
facilitation by a U.S. person of a foreign person's investment, all 
transactions related to the divestiture or transfer to a foreign person 
of a U.S. person's share of ownership including an equity interest in 
the economic development of resources located in Burma are authorized. 
U.S. persons participating in such transactions valued at more than 
$10,000 are required, within 10 business days after the agreement is 
signed, to file a report for statistical purposes with the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Treasury Department, 1500 Pennsylvania 
Avenue NW.--Annex, Washington, DC 20220.

    Note to Sec. 537.504:  This authorization includes arrangements by 
U.S. persons with pre-effective date investments in Burma to ``farm in'' 
or sell a stake in the investment to a foreign person. For purposes of 
this section, the term farm-in arrangement is defined to mean the sale 
of an equity interest in an investment in the economic development of 
resources located in Burma.



                           Subpart F--Reports



Sec. 537.601  Recordkeeping and reporting requirements.

part 501 of this chapter.

[[Page 603]]



                          Subpart G--Penalties



Sec. 537.701  Penalties.

    (a) Attention is directed to section 206 of the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1705) (the ``Act''), which is 
applicable to violations of the provisions of any license, ruling, 
regulation, order, direction or instruction issued by or pursuant to the 
direction or authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to 
this part or otherwise under the Act. Section 206 of the Act, as 
adjusted by the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 
(Pub.L. 101-410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), provides that:
    (1) A civil penalty of not to exceed $11,000 per violation may be 
imposed on any person who violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act;
    (2) Whoever willfully violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than 
$50,000, or, if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 10 
years, or both; and any officer, director, or agent of any corporation 
who knowingly participates in such violation may be punished by a like 
fine, imprisonment or both.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in the Act are subject to 
increase pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571.
    (c) Attention is also directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides 
that whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statements or representations or 
makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined 
under title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, 
or both.
    (d) Violations of this part may also be subject to relevant 
provisions of other applicable laws.



Sec. 537.702  Prepenalty notice.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and the Director determines 
that further proceedings are warranted, he shall issue to the person 
concerned a notice of his intent to impose a monetary penalty. The 
prepenalty notice shall be issued whether or not another agency has 
taken any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty.
    (2) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice also shall inform the 
respondent of respondent's right to make a written presentation within 
30 days of mailing of the notice as to why a monetary penalty should not 
be imposed, or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.



Sec. 537.703  Response to prepenalty notice; informal settlement.

    (a) Deadline for response. The respondent shall have 30 days from 
the date of mailing of the prepenalty notice to make a written response 
to the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (b) Form and contents of response. The written response need not be 
in any particular form, but shall contain information sufficient to 
indicate that it is in response to the prepenalty notice. It should 
contain responses to the allegations in the prepenalty notice and set 
forth the reasons why the respondent believes the penalty should not be 
imposed or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.
    (c) Informal settlement. In addition or as an alternative to a 
written response to a prepenalty notice pursuant to this section, the 
respondent or respondent's representative may contact the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control as advised in the prepenalty notice to propose 
the

[[Page 604]]

settlement of allegations contained in the prepenalty notice and related 
matters. In the event of settlement at the prepenalty stage, the claim 
proposed in the prepenalty notice will be withdrawn, the respondent is 
not required to take a written position on allegations contained in the 
prepenalty notice, and the Office of Foreign Assets Control will make no 
final determination as to whether a violation occurred. The amount 
accepted in settlement of allegations in a prepenalty notice may vary 
from the civil penalty that might finally be imposed in the event of a 
formal determination of violation. In the event no settlement is 
reached, the 30-day period specified in paragraph (a) of this section 
for written response to the prepenalty notice remains in effect unless 
additional time is granted by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.



Sec. 537.704  Penalty imposition or withdrawal.

    (a) No violation. If, after considering any response to the 
prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director of the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control determines that there was no violation by the 
respondent named in the prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall 
notify the respondent in writing of that determination and that no 
monetary penalty will be imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, after considering any response to the prepenalty 
notice, the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control determines 
that there was a violation by the respondent named in the prepenalty 
notice, the Director promptly shall issue a written notice of the 
imposition of the monetary penalty to the respondent.
    (1) The penalty notice shall inform the respondent that payment of 
the assessed penalty must be made within 30 days of the mailing of the 
penalty notice.
    (2) The penalty notice shall inform the respondent of the 
requirement to furnish the respondent's taxpayer identification number 
pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 7701 and that such number will be used for 
purposes of collection and reporting on any delinquent penalty amount in 
the event of a failure to pay the penalty imposed.



Sec. 537.705  Administrative collection action; referral to United States Department of Justice.

    In the event that the respondent does not pay the penalty imposed 
pursuant to this part or make payment arrangements acceptable to the 
Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control within 30 days of the 
mailing of the written notice of the imposition of the penalty, the 
matter may be referred for administrative collection measures by the 
Department of the Treasury or to the United States Department of Justice 
for appropriate action to recover the penalty in a civil suit in a 
Federal district court.

     Subpart A--Relation of This Part to Other Laws and Regulations



Sec. 538.101  Relation of this part to other laws and regulations.

    (a) This part is separate from, and independent of, the other parts 
of this chapter with the exception of part 501 of this chapter, the 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements and license application and 
other procedures of which apply to this part. Differing foreign policy 
and national security contexts may result in differing interpretations 
of similar language among the parts of this chapter. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to those other parts 
authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to any other provision of 
law or regulation authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
this part relieves the involved parties from complying with any other 
applicable laws or regulations.



                         Subpart B--Prohibitions



Sec. 538.201  Prohibited transactions involving blocked property.

    (a) Except as authorized by regulations, orders, directives, 
rulings, instructions, licenses, or otherwise, no property or interests 
in property of the Government of Sudan, that are in the United States, 
that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter 
come within the possession or control of U.S. persons, including their 
overseas branches, may be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn or 
otherwise dealt in.
    (b) Unless otherwise authorized by this part or by a specific 
license expressly referring to this section, the transfer (including the 
transfer on the books of any issuer or agent thereof), disposition, 
transportation, importation, exportation, or withdrawal of, or the 
endorsement or guaranty of signatures on, or otherwise dealing in any 
security (or evidence thereof) registered or inscribed in the name of 
the Government of Sudan, and held within the possession or control of a 
U.S. person is prohibited, irrespective of the fact that at any time 
(either prior to, on, or subsequent to the effective date) the 
registered or inscribed owner thereof may have, or appears to have, 
assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of any such security.
    (c) When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a 
financial institution pursuant to this section and a party to the 
transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to mistaken 
identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked pursuant to 
the administrative procedures set forth in Sec. 501.806 of this chapter.



Sec. 538.202  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the effective date, which is in violation of 
any provision of this part or of any regulation, order, directive, 
ruling, instruction, license, or other authorization hereunder and 
involves any property or interest in property blocked pursuant to 
Sec. 538.201 is null and void and shall not be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any interest in or right, remedy, power or 
privilege with respect to such property or property interests.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with 
respect to, or interest in, any property or interest in property blocked 
pursuant to Sec. 538.201, unless the person with whom such property is 
held or maintained, prior to such date, had written notice of the

[[Page 607]]

transfer or by any written evidence had recognized such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control before, during, or 
after a transfer shall validate such transfer or render it enforceable 
to the same extent that it would be valid or enforceable but for the 
provisions of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, this 
part, and any regulation, order, directive, ruling, instruction, or 
license issued hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void or 
unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any person with whom 
such property was held or maintained (and as to such person only) in 
cases in which such person is able to establish to the satisfaction of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the 
following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to this part and was 
not so licensed or authorized, or if a license or authorization did 
purport to cover the transfer, that such license or authorization had 
been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) The person with whom such property was held or maintained filed 
with the Office of Foreign Assets Control a report setting forth in full 
the circumstances relating to such transfer promptly upon discovery 
that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license, or other direction or 
authorization hereunder; or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control; or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the 
withholding of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained.

    Note to paragraph  (d): The filing of a report in accordance with 
the provisions of paragraph (d)(3) of this section shall not be deemed 
evidence that the terms of paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) of this section 
have been satisfied.

    (e) Unless licensed or authorized pursuant to this part, any 
attachment, judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other 
judicial process is null and void with respect to any property or 
interest in property blocked pursuant to Sec. 538.201.



Sec. 538.203  Holding of funds in interest-bearing accounts; investment and reinvestment.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraphs (c) or (d) of this section, or 
as otherwise directed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, any U.S. 
person holding funds, such as currency, bank deposits, or liquidated 
financial obligations, subject to Sec. 538.201(a) shall hold or place 
such funds in a blocked interest-bearing account located in the United 
States.
    (b)(1) For purposes of this section, the term blocked interest-
bearing account means a blocked account:
    (i) In a federally-insured U.S. bank, thrift institution, or credit 
union, provided the funds are earning interest at rates which are 
commercially reasonable; or
    (ii) With a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, provided 
the funds are invested in a money market fund or in U.S. Treasury Bills.
    (2) For purposes of this section, a rate is commercially reasonable 
if it is the rate currently offered to other depositors on deposits or 
instruments of comparable size and maturity.
    (3) Funds held or placed in a blocked account pursuant to this 
paragraph (b) may not be invested in instruments the maturity of which 
exceeds 180 days. If

[[Page 608]]

interest is credited to a separate blocked account or sub-account, the 
name of the account party on each account must be the same.
    (c) Blocked funds held in instruments the maturity of which exceeds 
180 days at the time the funds become subject to Sec. 538.201 may 
continue to be held until maturity in the original instrument, provided 
any interest, earnings, or other proceeds derived therefrom are paid 
into a blocked interest-bearing account in accordance with paragraph (b) 
or (d) of this section.
    (d) Blocked funds held in accounts or instruments outside the United 
States at the time the funds become subject to Sec. 538.201 may continue 
to be held in the same type of accounts or instruments, provided the 
funds earn interest at rates which are commercially reasonable.
    (e) This section does not create an affirmative obligation for the 
holder of blocked tangible property, such as chattels or real estate, or 
of other blocked property, such as debt or equity securities, to sell or 
liquidate such property at the time the property becomes subject to 
Sec. 538.201. However, the Office of Foreign Assets Control may issue 
licenses permitting or directing such sales in appropriate cases.
    (f) Funds subject to this section may not be held, invested, or 
reinvested in a manner which provides immediate financial or economic 
benefit or access to the Government of Sudan or its entities, nor may 
their holder cooperate in or facilitate the pledging or other attempted 
use as collateral of blocked funds or other assets.



Sec. 538.204  Prohibited importation of goods or services from Sudan.

    Except as otherwise authorized, the importation into the United 
States, directly or indirectly, of any goods or services of Sudanese 
origin, other than information or informational materials, is 
prohibited.

    (a) Whenever a transaction licensed or authorized by or pursuant to

interest) away from the Government of Sudan, such property shall no

has had an interest unless there exists in the property another interest 
of the Government of Sudan, the transfer of which has not been effected 
pursuant to license or other authorization.
    (b) Unless otherwise specifically provided in a license or 
authorization issued pursuant to this part, if property (including any 
property interest) is transferred or attempted to be transferred to the 
Government of Sudan, such property shall be deemed to be property in 
which there exists an interest of the Government of Sudan.



Sec. 538.404  Setoffs prohibited.

    A setoff against blocked property (including a blocked account), 
whether by a U.S. bank or other U.S. person, is a prohibited transfer 
under Sec. 538.201 if effected after the effective date.



Sec. 538.405  Transactions incidental to a licensed transaction.

    Any transaction ordinarily incident to a licensed transaction and 
necessary to give effect thereto is also authorized, except a

not further trade or financial transactions with Sudan or the Government 
of Sudan is not considered prohibited facilitation. For example,

quality of goods sold by a subsidiary to the Government of Sudan 
constitutes prohibited facilitation.

technology, or services between Sudan and any other location including 
but not limited to business and legal planning; decision making;

transaction that could not be entered into directly by a U.S. person or 
from the United States pursuant to this part.
    (d) No U.S. person may refer to a foreign person purchase orders, 
requests for bids, or similar business opportunities involving Sudan or 
the Government of Sudan to which the United States person could not 
directly respond as a result of the prohibitions contained in this part.

benefits or supports the business of an entity located in Sudan,

[[Page 614]]

conduct such transactions with U.S. persons or the transaction is 
generally licensed in, or exempted from the prohibitions of, this part.

States to third countries is prohibited if the exporter knows, or has 
reason to know, that the goods or technology are intended for 
transshipment to Sudan (including passage through, or storage in, 
intermediate destinations). The exportation of goods or technology 
intended specifically for incorporation or substantial transformation 
into a third-country product is also prohibited if the particular

fill a Sudanese order, or if the manufacturer's sales of the particular 
product are predominantly to Sudan.



Sec. 538.412  Operation of accounts.

    The operation of an account in a financial institution for a private 
Sudanese person does not constitute the exportation of a service to 
Sudan; however, such operation may not include the execution of 
transactions in support of transactions or activities prohibited by 
subpart B of this part.

    The transfer of funds to Sudan from the United States does not

otherwise issued by or under the direction of the Director of the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control, authorizes or validates any transaction 
effected prior to the issuance of the license, unless specifically 
provided in such license or authorization.
    (b) No regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizes any 
transaction prohibited under this part unless the regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license is issued by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control and specifically refers to this part. No regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license referring to this part shall be deemed to 
authorize any transaction prohibited by any provision of this chapter 
unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or license specifically

obligation, claim, or interest in, or with respect to, any property 
which would not otherwise exist under ordinary principles of law.



Sec. 538.502  Exclusion from licenses and authorizations.

    The Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control reserves the

Sec. 538.506  30-day delayed effective date for pre-November 4, 1997 trade contracts involving Sudan.

    (a) Pre-existing trade contracts. Trade transactions required under 
a contract entered into prior to November 4, 1997 (a ``pre-existing 
trade contract''), otherwise prohibited by this part, including the 
importation of goods or services of Sudanese origin or the exportation 
of goods, services, or technology that was authorized under applicable 
Federal regulations in force immediately prior to November 4, 1997, are 
authorized without specific licensing by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control as follows:
    (1) Exports or reexports are authorized until 12:01 a.m. EST, 
December 4, 1997, and non-financing activity by U.S. persons incidental 
to the performance of the pre-existing trade contract (such as the 
provision of transportation or insurance) is authorized through 12:01 
a.m. EST, February 2, 1998, if the pre-existing trade contract is for:
    (i) The exportation of goods, services, or technology from the 
United States or a third country that was authorized under applicable 
Federal regulations in force immediately prior to November 4, 1997; or
    (ii) The reexportation of goods or technology that was authorized 
under applicable Federal regulations in force immediately prior to 
November 4, 1997.
    (2) If the pre-existing trade contract is for the importation of 
goods or services of Sudanese origin or other trade transactions 
relating to goods or services of Sudanese origin or owned or controlled 
by the Government of Sudan, importations under the pre-existing trade 
contract are authorized until 12:01 a.m. EST, December 4, 1997.

[[Page 617]]

    (b)(1) Financing for pre-existing trade contracts. In general, no 
financing services prohibited by this part may be performed after 12:01 
a.m. EST, November 4, 1997. However, letters of credit and other 
financing agreements with respect to the trade transactions authorized 
in paragraph (a) of this section may be performed according to their 
terms, and may be extended or renewed, except that:
    (i) Any payment required to be made to the Government of Sudan or 
any person blocked pursuant to this part or otherwise, including 
payments authorized with respect to trade transactions described in 
paragraph (a) of this section, must be made into a blocked account in 
the United States; and
    (ii) No payment may be made from a blocked account unless authorized 
by a specific license issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Controls.
    (2) Specific licenses may be issued by the Office of Foreign Asset 
Controls on a case-by-case basis to permit a U.S. bank to debit a 
blocked account of the Government of Sudan for funds held as collateral 
under an irrevocable letter of credit issued or confirmed by it, or a 
letter of credit reimbursement confirmed by it, for goods, services or 
technology exported, or goods or technology reexported, prior to 12:01 
a.m. EST, December 4, 1997, directly or indirectly to Sudan, or to third 
countries for an entity operated from Sudan, or for the benefit of the 
Government of Sudan. The application for a license must:
    (i) Present evidence satisfactory to the Office of Foreign Asset 
Controls that the exportation or reexportation occurred prior to 12:01 
a.m. EST, December 4, 1997; and
    (ii) Include an explanation of the facts and circumstances 
surrounding the entry and execution of the export or reexport 
transaction, including the names and addresses of all Sudanese 
participants in the transaction and all Sudanese persons having an 
ownership interest in the beneficiary of the letter of credit.
    (c) Blocked Government of Sudan accounts. Nothing in this section 
permits debits to a blocked account of the Government of Sudan absent 
the issuance of a specific license by Office of Foreign Asset Controls 
authorizing such a debit. The operation of an account of the Government 
of Sudan in a financial institution does not constitute a trade 
transaction for purposes of this section.
    (d) Existence of contract. The existence of a contract will be 
determined with reference to the principles contained in Article 2 of 
the Uniform Commercial Code.
    (e) Reporting requirement. Although a specific license from Office 
of Foreign Asset Controls is not required for any transaction authorized 
in paragraph (a) of this section, any U.S. person engaging in a 
transaction described in paragraph (a) of this section is required to 
report such transaction immediately to the Office of Foreign Asset 
Controls and provide a description of the underlying trade contract. 
Such reports should be directed to the Office of Foreign Assets Control, 
Attn: Compliance Programs Division/Sudan Contracts, 1500 Pennsylvania 
Avenue, NW., Annex-2nd Floor, Washington, DC 20220. Such reports may be 
made by facsimile transmission to 202/622-1657.
    (f) Licensing and reporting provisions. For provisions relating to 
applications to the Office of Foreign Asset Controls for specific 
licenses and reporting requirements, see Secs. 501.606 and 501.808 of 
this chapter.

application requirements under other United States regulations. The 
reexportation to Sudan or the Government of Sudan by a non-U.S. person 
of any goods, technology or services exported from the United States, 
the exportation of which to Sudan is subject to export or reexport 
license application requirements is authorized under this section

this chapter, from a non-blocked account outside of the United States, 
solely for the purpose of payment of obligations of the Government of

Sec. 538.701  Penalties.

    (a) Attention is directed to section 206 of the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (the ``Act'')(50 U.S.C. 1705), which is 
applicable to violations of the provisions of any license, ruling, 
regulation, order, direction or instruction issued by or pursuant to the 
direction or authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to 
this part or otherwise under the Act. Section 206 of the Act, as 
adjusted by the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 
(Pub. L. 101-410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), provides that:
    (1) A civil penalty not to exceed $11,000 per violation may be 
imposed on any person who violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act;
    (2) Whoever willfully violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act shall, upon conviction be fined not more than 
$50,000, or, if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 10 
years, or both; and any officer, director, or agent of any corporation 
who knowingly participates in such violation may be punished by a like 
fine, imprisonment, or both.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in the Act are subject to 
increase pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571.

[[Page 621]]

    (c) Attention is also directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides 
that whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation or makes 
or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any 
false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined under 
title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than five years, or 
both.
    (d) Violations of this part may also be subject to relevant 
provisions of other applicable laws.



Sec. 538.702  Prepenalty notice.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and the Director determines 
that further proceedings are warranted, he shall issue to the person 
concerned a notice of his intent to impose a monetary penalty. The 
prepenalty notice shall be issued whether or not another agency has 
taken any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty.
    (2) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice also shall inform the 
respondent of respondent's right to make a written presentation within 
30 days of mailing of the notice as to why a monetary penalty should not 
be imposed, or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.



Sec. 538.703  Response to prepenalty notice; informal settlement.

    (a) Deadline for response. The respondent shall have 30 days from 
the date of mailing of the prepenalty notice to make a written response 
to the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (b) Form and contents of response. The written response need not be 
in any particular form, but shall contain information sufficient to 
indicate that it is in response to the prepenalty notice. It should 
contain responses to the allegations in the prepenalty notice and set 
forth the reasons why the respondent believes the penalty should not be 
imposed or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.
    (c) Informal settlement. In addition or as an alternative to a 
written response to a prepenalty notice pursuant to this section, the 
respondent or respondent's representative may contact the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control as advised in the prepenalty notice to propose 
the settlement of allegations contained in the prepenalty notice and 
related matters. In the event of settlement at the prepenalty stage, the 
claim proposed in the prepenalty notice will be withdrawn, the 
respondent is not required to take a written position on allegations 
contained in the prepenalty notice, and the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control will make no final determination as to whether a violation 
occurred. The amount accepted in settlement of allegations in a 
prepenalty notice may vary from the civil penalty that might finally be 
imposed in the event of a formal determination of violation. In the 
event no settlement is reached, the 30-day period specified in paragraph 
(a) of this section for written response to the prepenalty notice 
remains in effect unless additional time is granted by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control.



Sec. 538.704  Penalty imposition or withdrawal.

    (a) No violation. If, after considering any response to the 
prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director of the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control determines that there was no violation by the 
respondent named in the

[[Page 622]]

prepenalty notice, the Director promptly shall notify the respondent in 
writing of that determination and that no monetary penalty will be 
imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, after considering any response to the prepenalty 
notice, the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control determines 
that there was a violation by the respondent named in the prepenalty 
notice, the Director promptly shall issue a written notice of the 
imposition of the monetary penalty to the respondent.
    (1) The penalty notice shall inform the respondent that payment of 
the assessed penalty must be made within 30 days of the mailing of the 
penalty notice.
    (2) The penalty notice shall inform the respondent of the 
requirement to furnish the respondent's taxpayer identification number 
pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 7701 and that such number will be used for 
purposes of collection and reporting on any delinquent penalty amount in 
the event of a failure to pay the penalty imposed.



Sec. 538.705  Administrative collection; referral to United States Department of Justice.

    In the event that the respondent does not pay the penalty imposed 
pursuant to this part or make payment arrangements acceptable to the 
Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control within 30 days of the 
mailing of the written notice of the imposition of the penalty, the 
matter may be referred for administrative collection measures by the 
Department of the Treasury or to the United States Department of Justice 
for appropriate action to recover the penalty in a civil suit in a 
Federal district court.



                          Subpart H--Procedures

Foreign Assets Control may issue licenses permitting or directing sales

family member means a spouse, child, parent, mother-in-law, father-in-
law, son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
    (c) Specific Licenses. Specific licenses authorizing the 
transactions set forth in paragraph (a) of this section may be issued in

Chirlando, Tripoli, Libya, Telephone: 37797

      or


[[Page 638]]


Licensing Section, Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the 
Treasury, Washington, DC 20220, Telephone: (202) 376-0236.

of the above addresses of a letter, signed by or on behalf of each 
eligible U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien being registered, 
containing the following information:
    (i) The name and the date and place of birth of the U.S. citizen(s) 
or permanent resident alien(s) registering (the ``registrant''), 
including the name on which the registrant's most recent U.S. passport 
or Alien Registration Receipt Card was issued, if different;
    (ii) If applicable, the place and date of the registrant's 
naturalization as a U.S. citizen, and the number of the registrant's

date, and number of the registrant's current passport or other travel

qualify. Current information on travel document status as requested in 
paragraph (d)(1) of this section must, however, be furnished to register 
a registrant's eligibility for this license.

[51 FR 19752, June 2, 1986]



Sec. 550.568  Certain standby letters of credit and performance bonds.

    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, payment into a 
blocked account in a domestic bank by an issuing or confirming bank 
under a standby letter of credit in favor of a Libyan entity is 
prohibited by Sec. 550.209 and not authorized, notwithstanding the 
provisions of Sec. 550.511, if either (1) a specific license has been 
issued pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this section or 
(2) ten business days have not expired after notice to the account party 
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Whenever an issuing or confirming bank shall receive such demand 
for payment under such a standby letter of credit, it shall promptly 
notify the account party. The account party may then apply within five 
business days for a specific license authorizing the account party to 
establish a blocked account on its books in the name of the Libyan 
entity in the amount payable under the credit, in lieu of payment by the 
issuing or confirming bank into a blocked account and reimbursement 
therefor by the account party. Nothing in this section relieves any such 
bank or such account party from giving any notice of defense against 
payment or reimbursement that is required by applicable law.
    (c) Where there is outstanding a demand for payment under a standby 
letter of credit, and the issuing or confirming bank has been enjoined 
from making payment, upon removal of the injunction, the account party 
may apply for a specific license for the same purpose and in the same 
manner as that set forth in paragraph (b) of this section. The issuing 
or confirming bank shall not make payment under the standby letter of 
credit unless (1) ten business days have expired since the bank has 
received notice of the removal of the injunction and (2) a specific 
license issued to the account party pursuant to the provisions of this 
paragraph has not been presented to the bank.

[[Page 639]]

    (d) If necessary to assure the availability of the funds blocked, 
the Secretary may at any time require the payment of the amounts due 
under any letter of credit described in paragraph (a) of this section 
into a blocked account in a domestic bank or the supplying of any form 
of security deemed necessary.
    (e) Nothing in this section precludes the account party on any 
standby letter of credit or any other person from at any time contesting 
the legality of the demand from Libyan entity or from raising any other 
legal defense to payment under the standby letter of credit.
    (f) This section does not affect the obligation of the various 
parties of the instruments covered by this section if the instruments 
and payments thereunder are subsequently unblocked.
    (g) For the purposes of this section,
    (1) The term standby letter of credit shall mean a letter of credit 
securing performance of, or repayment of any advance payments or 
deposits under, a contract with the Government of Libya, or any similar 
obligation in the nature of a performance bond; and
    (2) The term account party shall mean the person for whose account 
the standby letter of credit is opened.
    (h) The regulations do not authorize any U.S. person to reimburse a 
non-U.S. bank for payment to the Government of Libya under a standby 
letter of credit, except by payments into a blocked account in 
accordance with Sec. 550.511 or paragraph (b) or (c) of this section.
    (i) A person receiving a specific license under paragraph (b) or (c) 
of this section shall certify to the Office of Foreign Assets Control 
within five business days after receipt of that license that it has 
established the blocked account on its books as provided for in those 
paragraphs. However, in appropriate cases, this time period may be 
extended upon application to the Office of Foreign Assets Control when 
the account party has filed a petition with an appropriate court seeking 
a judicial order barring payment by the issuing or confirming bank.
    (j) The extension or renewal of a standby letter of credit is 
authorized.

                          Subpart G--Penalties



Sec. 560.701  Penalties.

    (a) Attention is directed to section 206 of the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (the ``Act'') (50 U.S.C. 1705), which is 
applicable to violations of the provisions of any license, ruling, 
regulation, order, direction or instruction issued by or pursuant to the 
direction or authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to 
this part or otherwise under the Act. Section 206 of the Act, as 
adjusted by the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 
(Pub. L. 101-410, as amended, 28 U.S.C. 2461 note), provides that:
    (1) A civil penalty of not to exceed $11,000 per violation may be 
imposed on any person who violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act;
    (2) Whoever willfully violates any license, order, or regulation 
issued under the Act shall, upon conviction be fined not more than 
$50,000, or, if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 
ten years, or both; and any officer, director, or agent of any 
corporation who knowingly participates in such violation may be punished 
by a like fine, imprisonment or both.
    (b) The criminal penalties provided in the Act are subject to 
increase pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3571.
    (c) Attention is also directed to 18 U.S.C. 1001, which provides 
that whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or 
agency of the United States, knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals 
or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes 
any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation or makes 
or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any 
false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined under 
title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than five years, or 
both.
    (d) Attention is directed to 18 U.S.C. 2332d, as added by Public Law 
104-132, section 321, which provides that, except as provided in 
regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation 
with the Secretary of State, a U.S. person, knowing or having reasonable 
cause to know that a country is designated under section 6(j) of the 
Export Administration Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 2405, as a country supporting 
international terrorism, engages in a financial transaction with the 
government of that country, shall be fined under title 18, United States 
Code, or imprisoned for not more than 10 years, or both.
    (e) Violations of this part may also be subject to relevant 
provisions of the Customs laws and other applicable laws.
[60 FR 47063, Sept. 11, 1995, as amended at 61 FR 43461, Aug. 23, 1996; 
61 FR 54939, Oct. 23, 1996; 62 FR 45109, Aug. 25, 1997]



Sec. 560.702  Detention of shipments.

    Import shipments into the United States of Iranian-origin goods in 
violation of Sec. 560.201 and export shipments from the United States of 
goods destined for Iran in violation of Sec. 560.202 or 560.204 shall be 
detained. No such import, export, or reexport will be permitted to 
proceed, except as specifically authorized by the Secretary of the 
Treasury. Unless licensed, such shipments are subject to penalty or 
seizure and forfeiture action, under the Customs laws or other 
applicable provisions of law, depending on the circumstances.



Sec. 560.703  Prepenalty notice.

    (a) When required. If the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control has reasonable cause to believe that there has occurred a 
violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions 
of any license, ruling, regulation, order, direction or instruction 
issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part or otherwise under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and the Director determines 
that further proceedings are warranted, he may issue to the person 
concerned a notice of his intent to impose a monetary penalty. The 
prepenalty notice may be issued whether or not another agency has taken 
any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice will 
describe the

[[Page 660]]

violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly violated, and 
state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty.
    (2) Right to make presentations. The prepenalty notice also shall 
inform the person of his right to make a written presentation within 30 
days of mailing of the notice as to why a monetary penalty should not be 
imposed, or, if imposed, why it should be in a lesser amount than 
proposed.



Sec. 560.704  Presentation responding to prepenalty notice.

    (a) Time within which to respond. The named person shall have 30 
days from the date of mailing of the prepenalty notice to make a written 
presentation to the Director.
    (b) Form and contents of the written presentation. The written 
presentation need not be in any particular form, but shall contain 
information sufficient to indicate that it is in response to the 
prepenalty notice. It should contain responses to the allegations in the 
prepenalty notice and set forth the reasons why the person believes the 
penalty should not be imposed or, if imposed, why it should be in a 
lesser amount than proposed.



Sec. 560.705  Penalty notice.

    (a) No violation. If, after considering any presentations made in 
response to the prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director 
determines that there was no violation by the person named in the 
prepenalty notice, he shall promptly notify the person in writing of the 
determination and that no monetary penalty will be imposed.
    (b) Violation. If, after considering any presentations made in 
response to the prepenalty notice, the Director determines that there 
was a violation by the person named in the prepenalty notice, he may 
issue a written notice of the imposition of the monetary penalty to that 
person.



Sec. 560.706  Referral for administrative collection measures or to United States Department of Justice.

    In the event that the person named does not pay the penalty imposed 
pursuant to this part or make payment arrangements acceptable to the 
Director within 30 days of the mailing of the written notice of the 
imposition of the penalty, the matter may be referred for administrative 
collection measures or to the United States Department of Justice for 
appropriate action to recover the penalty in a civil suit in a Federal 
district court.



                          Subpart H--Procedures



Sec. 560.801  Procedures.

    For license application procedures and procedures relating to

[62 FR 45109, Aug. 25, 1997]

Order 12959, and any further Executive orders relating to the national 
emergency declared in Executive Order 12957 may be taken by the

Sec. 560.803  Customs procedures: Goods specified in Sec. 560.201.

    (a) With respect to goods specified in Sec. 560.201, and not 
otherwise licensed or excepted from the scope of that section, 
appropriate Customs officers shall not accept or allow any:
    (1) Entry for consumption or warehouse (including any appraisement 
entry, any entry of goods imported in the mails, regardless of value, 
and any informal entries);
    (2) Entry for immediate exportation;
    (3) Entry for transportation and exportation;
    (4) Withdrawal from warehouse;
    (5) Admission, entry, transfer or withdrawal to or from a foreign 
trade zone; or

[[Page 661]]

    (6) Manipulation or manufacture in a warehouse or in a foreign trade 
zone.
    (b) Customs officers may accept or allow the importation of Iranian-
origin goods under the procedures listed in paragraph (a) if:
    (1) A specific license pursuant to this part is presented; or
    (2) Instructions authorizing the transaction are received from the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (c) Whenever a specific license is presented to an appropriate 
Customs officer in accordance with this section, one additional legible 
copy of the entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document with respect 
to the merchandise involved must be filed with the appropriate Customs 
officers at the port where the transaction is to take place. Each copy 
of any such entry, withdrawal or other appropriate document, including 
the additional copy, must bear plainly on its face the number of the 
license pursuant to which it is filed. The original copy of the specific 
license must be presented to the appropriate Customs officers in respect 
of each such transaction and must bear a notation in ink by the licensee 
or person presenting the license showing the description, quantity and 
value of the merchandise to be entered, withdrawn or otherwise dealt 
with. This notation must be so placed and so written that there will 
exist no possibility of confusing it with anything placed on the license 
at the time of its issuance. If the license in fact authorizes the 
entry, withdrawal, or other transaction with regard to the merchandise, 
the appropriate Customs officer, or other authorized Customs employee, 
shall verify the notation by signing or initialing it after first 
assuring himself that it accurately describes the merchandise it 
purports to represent. The license shall thereafter be returned to the 
person presenting it and the additional copy of the entry, withdrawal or 
other appropriate document shall be forwarded by the appropriate Customs 
officer to the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
    (d) If it is unclear whether an entry, withdrawal or other action 
affected by this section requires a specific license from the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control, the appropriate Customs officer may withhold any 
action thereon and shall advise such person to communicate directly with 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control to request that instructions be 
sent to the Customs officer to authorize him to take action with regard 
thereto.

     Subpart A--Relation of This Part to Other Laws and Regulations



Sec. 575.101  Relation of this part to other laws and regulations.

    (a) This part is separate from, and independent of, the other parts 
of this chapter with the exception of part 501 of this chapter, the 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements and license application and 
other procedures of which apply to this part. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to those other parts 
authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to any other provision of 
law or regulation authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
this part relieves the involved parties from complying with any other 
applicable laws or regulations.
[56 FR 2113, Jan. 18, 1991, as amended at 62 FR 45109, Aug. 25, 1997]



                         Subpart B--Prohibitions



Sec. 575.201  Prohibited transactions involving property in which the Government of Iraq has an interest; transactions with respect to securities.

    (a) Except as authorized by regulations, rulings, instructions, 
licenses, or otherwise, no property or interests in property of the 
Government of Iraq that are in the United States, that hereafter come 
within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the 
possession or control of U.S. persons, including their overseas 
branches, may be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn or otherwise 
dealt in.
    (b) Unless otherwise authorized by this part or by a specific 
license expressly referring to this section, the transfer (including the 
transfer on the books of any issuer or agent thereof), the endorsement 
or guaranty of signatures on, or any other dealing in any security (or 
evidence thereof) registered or inscribed in the name of the Government 
of Iraq and held within the possession or control of a U.S. person is 
prohibited, irrespective of the fact that at any time either at or 
subsequent to the effective date the registered or inscribed owner 
thereof may have, or appears to have, assigned, transferred, or 
otherwise disposed of any such security.
    (c) When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a 
financial institution pursuant to this section and a party to the 
transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to mistaken 
identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked pursuant to 
the administrative procedures set forth in Sec. 501.806 of this chapter.
[56 FR 2113, Jan. 18, 1991, as amended at 62 FR 45109, Aug. 25, 1997]



Sec. 575.202  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the effective date, which is in violation of 
any provision of this part or of any regulation, ruling, instruction, 
license, or other direction or authorization hereunder and involves any 
property in which the Government of Iraq has or has had an interest 
since such date, is null and

[[Page 664]]

void and shall not be the basis for the assertion or recognition of any 
interest in or right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to such 
property.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with 
respect to, or interest in, any property in which the Government of Iraq 
has an interest, or has had an interest since such date, unless the 
person with whom such property is held or maintained, prior to such 
date, had written notice of the transfer or by any written evidence had 
recognized such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control before, during, or 
after a transfer shall validate such transfer or render it enforceable 
to the same extent that it would be valid or enforceable but for the 
provisions of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the 
United Nations Participation Act, this part, and any ruling, order, 
regulation, direction, or instruction issued hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void or 
unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any person with whom 
such property was held or maintained (and as to such person only) in 
cases in which such person is able to establish to the satisfaction of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the 
following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to this part and was 
not so licensed or authorized, or if a license or authorization did 
purport to cover the transfer, that such license or authorization had 
been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) Promptly upon discovery that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license, or other direction or 
authorization hereunder, or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control, or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the 
withholding of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained;

the person with whom such property was held or maintained filed with the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control a report setting forth in full the 
circumstances relating to such transfer. The filing of a report in 
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed 
evidence that the terms of paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section 
have been satisfied.
    (e) Unless licensed or authorized pursuant to this part, any 
attachment, judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other 
judicial process is null and void with respect to any property in which, 
on or since the effective date, there existed an interest of the 
Government of Iraq.



Sec. 575.203  Holding of certain types of blocked property in interest-bearing accounts.

    (a) Any person, including a U.S. financial institution, currently 
holding property subject to Sec. 575.201 which, as of the effective date 
or the date of receipt if subsequent to the effective date, is not being 
held in an interest-bearing account, or otherwise invested in a manner 
authorized by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, must transfer such 
property to, or hold such property or cause such property to be held in, 
an interest-bearing account or interest-bearing status in a U.S. 
financial institution as of the effective date or the date of receipt if 
subsequent to the effective date of this section, unless otherwise 
authorized or directed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. This 
requirement shall apply to currency,

[[Page 665]]

bank deposits, accounts, and any other financial assets, and any 
proceeds resulting from the sale of tangible or intangible property. If 
interest is credited to an account separate from that in which the 
interest-bearing asset is held, the name of the account party on both 
accounts must be the same and must clearly indicate the blocked 
Government of Iraq entity having an interest in the accounts.
    (b) For purposes of this section, the term interest-bearing account 
means a blocked account in a U.S. financial institution earning interest 
at rates that are commercially reasonable for the amount of funds in the 
account. Except as otherwise authorized, the funds may not be invested 
or held in instruments the maturity of which exceeds 90 days.
    (c) This section does not apply to blocked tangible property, such 
as chattels, nor does it create an affirmative obligation on the part of 
the holder of such blocked tangible property to sell or liquidate the 
property and put the proceeds in a blocked account. However, the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control may issue licenses permitting or directing

or she is employed in a constant or regular manner by a recognized 
newsgathering organization. Free-lance journalists should have an 
assignment from a recognized newsgathering organization requiring travel 
to Iraq, or be able to demonstrate that publication by a recognized 
newsgathering organization of a work requiring such travel is likely. 
The latter may be demonstrated by providing a resume listing previously-
published free-lance works or copies of previously-published works.

[[Page 672]]

regularly and principally engaged in collecting news for publication in 
the public press, transmission by wire services, or broadcast by radio

otherwise issued by or under the direction of the Director of the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control, shall be deemed to authorize or validate any

    (b) No regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizes any 
transaction prohibited under this part unless the regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license is issued by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control and specifically refers to this part. No regulation, ruling, 
instruction, or license referring to this part shall be deemed to 
authorize any transaction prohibited by any provision of this chapter 
unless the regulation, ruling, instruction or license specifically 
refers to such provision.
    (c) Any regulation, ruling, instruction, or license authorizing any 
transaction otherwise prohibited under this part has the effect of 
removing a prohibition or prohibitions contained in Subpart B from the 
transaction, but only to the extent specifically stated by its terms. 
Unless the regulation, ruling, instruction, or license otherwise 
specifies, such an authorization does not create any right, duty, 
obligation, claim, or interest in, or with respect to, any property 
which would not otherwise exist under ordinary principles of law.



Sec. 575.502  Exclusion from licenses and authorizations.

    The Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control reserves the 
right to exclude any person, property, or transaction from the operation 
of any license, or from the privileges therein conferred, or to restrict

documents are filed with Customs officials at the port where such goods 
are located:
    (a) A copy of the contract governing the exportation (sale or other 
transfer) of the goods to Iraq or, if no contract exists, a written 
explanation of the circumstances of exportation, including in either 
case a description of the manner and terms of payment received or to be 
received by the exporter (or other person) for, or by reason of, the 
exportation of the goods;
    (b) An invoice, bill of lading, or other documentation fully 
describing the goods; and
    (c) A statement by the exporter substantially in the following form:

    Any amount received from or on behalf of the Government of Iraq by 
reason of the attempted exportation of the goods released to [name of 
exporter] by the U.S. Customs Service on [date], and fully described in 
the attached documents, has been or will be placed into a blocked 
account in a U.S. bank and

[[Page 676]]

the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Blocked Assets Section, will be 
immediately notified. [Name of exporter] agrees to fully indemnify the 
U.S. Government for any amount ultimately determined by a court of 
competent jurisdiction to be due or payable to or for the benefit of any 
person by reason of the failure of [name of exporter] to properly pay 
into a blocked account any amount received for the goods from or on 
behalf of the Government of Iraq. [Name of exporter] also agrees to 
waive all claims (1) against any payments received and placed into a 
blocked account, except as may be later authorized by law, regulations, 
or license, and (2) against the U.S. Government with regard to the 
disposition of the amounts placed into a blocked account.


The statement should be dated and signed by the exporter or by a person 
authorized to sign on the exporter's behalf. The Customs Service may 
release the goods to the exporter upon receipt of the documentation and 
statement described above, provided it is satisfied that all customs 
laws and regulations have been complied with, including the execution of 
such hold harmless assurances as it shall determine to be appropriate. 
The documentation and statement received by Customs will be forwarded to

Sec. 575.518  Certain standby letters of credit and performance bonds.

    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, payment into a 
blocked account in a U.S. financial institution by an issuing or 
confirming bank under a standby letter of credit in favor of a 
beneficiary that is the Government of Iraq or a person in Iraq is 
prohibited by Sec. 575.201 and not authorized, notwithstanding the 
provisions of Sec. 575.503, if:
    (1) The account party is a U.S. person; and
    (2)(i) A specific license has been issued pursuant to the provisions 
of paragraph (b) of this section, or
    (ii) 10 business days have not expired after notice to the account 
party pursuant to paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Whenever an issuing or confirming bank shall receive such demand 
for payment under such a standby letter of credit, it shall promptly 
notify the account party. The account party may then apply within five 
business days for a specific license authorizing the account party to 
establish a blocked account on its books in the name of the Iraqi 
beneficiary in the amount payable under the credit, in lieu of payment 
by the issuing or confirming bank into a blocked account and 
reimbursement therefor by the account party. Nothing in this section 
relieves any such bank or such account party from giving any notice of 
defense against payment or reimbursement that is required by applicable 
law.
    (c) Where there is outstanding a demand for payment under a standby 
letter of credit, and the issuing or confirming bank has been enjoined 
from making payment, upon removal of the injunction, the account party 
may apply for a specific license for the same purpose and in the same 
manner as that set forth in paragraph (b) of this section. The issuing 
or confirming bank shall not make payment under the standby letter of 
credit unless:
    (1) 10 business days have expired since the bank has received notice 
of the removal of the injunction, and
    (2) A specific license issued to the account party pursuant to the 
provisions of this paragraph has not been presented to the bank.
    (d) If necessary to assure the availability of the funds blocked, 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control may at any time 
require the payment of the amounts due under any letter of credit 
described in paragraph (a) of this section into a blocked account in a 
U.S. financial institution or the supplying of any form of security 
deemed necessary.
    (e) Nothing in this section precludes the account party on any 
standby letter of credit or any other person from at any time contesting 
the legality of the demand from an Iraqi beneficiary or from raising any 
other legal defense to payment under the standby letter of credit.
    (f) This section does not affect the obligation of the various 
parties to the instruments covered by this section if the instruments 
and payments thereunder are subsequently unblocked.
    (g) The section does not authorize any U.S. person to reimburse a 
non-U.S. bank for payment to a Iraqi beneficiary under a standby letter 
of credit,

[[Page 677]]

except by payments into a blocked account in accordance with 
Sec. 575.503 or paragraph (b) or (c) of this section.
    (h) A person receiving a specific license under paragraph (b) or (c) 
of this section shall certify to the Office of Foreign Assets Control 
within 5 business days after receipt of that license that it has 
established the blocked account on its books as provided in those 
paragraphs. However, in appropriate cases, this time period may be 
extended upon application to the Office of Foreign Assets Control when 
the account party has filed a petition with an appropriate court seeking 
a judicial order barring payment by the issuing or confirming bank.
    (i) For the purposes of this section:
    (1) The term standby letter of credit shall mean a letter of credit 
securing performance of, or repayment of, any advance payments or 
deposits under a contract, or any similar obligation in the nature of a 
performance bond;
    (2) The term account party shall mean the person for whose account 
the standby letter of credit is opened; and

which is in violation of any provision of this part or of any 
regulation, order, directive, ruling, instruction, licance, or other 
authorization hereunder and involves any property or interest in 
property blocked pursuant to Sec. 585.201 is null and void and shall not 
be the basis for the assertion or recognition of any interest in or 
right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to such property or 
property interests.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilige with 
respect to, or interest in, any property or interest in property blocked 
pursuant to Sec. 585.201, unless the person with whom such property is 
held or maintained, prior to such date, had written notice of the 
tranfer or by any written evidence had recognized such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control before, during, or

unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any person with whom 
such property was held or maintained (and as to such person only) in 
cases in which such person is able to establish to the satisfaction of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the 
following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;

not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to this part and was 
not so licensed or authorized, or if a license or authorization did 
purport to cover the transfer, that such license or authorization had 
been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) Promptly upon discovery that
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or

authorization hereunder, or

the person with whom such property was held or maintained filed with the 
Office of Foreign Assets Control a report setting forth in full the 
circumstances relating to such transfer. The filing of a report in 
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed 
evidence that the terms of paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section 
have been satisfied.

attachment, judgement, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other 
judicial process is

Sec. 585.203  Holding of certain types of blocked property in interest-bearing accounts.

    (a)(1) Any person, including a U.S. financial institution, currently 
holding property subject to Sec. 585.201, which, as of July 15, 1992, or 
the date of receipt if subsequent to July 15, 1992, is not being held in 
an interest-bearing account or otherwise invested in a manner authorized 
by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, shall transfer such property 
to, or hold such property or cause such property to be held in, an 
interest-bearing account or interest-bearing status in a U.S. financial 
institution as of July 15, 1992, or the date of receipt if subsequent to 
July 15, 1992, unless otherwise authorized or directed by the Office of 
Foreign Assets Control.
    (2) The requirement set forth in paragraph (a)(1) of this section 
shall apply to currency, bank deposits, accounts, obligations, and any 
other financial or economic resources or assets, and any proceeds 
resulting from the sale of tangible or intangible property. If interest 
is credited to an account separate from that in which the interest-
bearing asset is held, the name of the account party on both accounts 
must be the same and must clearly indicate the person(s) having an 
interest in the accounts. If the account is held in the name of the 
Government of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia or the former 
Government of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the name of 
the account to which interest is credited must be the same.
    (b) For purposes of this section, the term ``interest-bearing 
account'' means a blocked account in a U.S. financial institution 
earning interest at rates that are commercially reasonable for the 
amount of funds in the account, i.e., a rate similar to that currently 
offered other depositors on deposits of comparable size and maturity. 
Overnight investment of blocked funds is authorized, provided that the 
funds remain within the possession and control of the U.S. person 
holding the funds and that the funds remain in a blocked status at all 
times. Except as otherwise authorized, the funds may not be re-invested 
or held in instruments the maturity of which exceeds 90 days.
    (c) U.S. financial institutions receiving instructions to execute a 
payment or transfer of funds they hold in which a person has an interest 
whose property or interests in property are blocked pursuant to 
Sec. 585.201, shall block the funds and provide written notification to 
the Compliance Programs Division, Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. 
Treasury Department, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave., NW.-2131 Annex, Washington, 
DC 20220, within 10 business days from the value date of the payment or 
transfer. The notification shall include a photocopy of the payment or 
transfer instructions received, shall confirm that the payment or 
transfer has been deposited into an existing or newly-established 
blocked account, and shall provide the account number, the name of the 
account, the location of the account, the name and address of the 
transferor and transferee financial instructions, the date of the 
deposit and the amount of the payment or transfer.
    (d) This section does not apply to blocked tangible property, such 
as chattels, nor does it create an affirmative obligation on the part of 
the holder of such blocked tangible property to sell or liquidate the 
property and put the proceeds in a blocked account. However, the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control may issue licenses permitting or directing 
sales of tangible property in appropriate cases.

services by U.S. persons to the Government of the FRY (S&M) or to a

business days for a specific license authorizing the account party to 
establish a blocked account on its books in the name of the FRY (S&M) 
beneficiary in the amount payable under the credit, in lieu of payment 
by the issuing or confirming bank into a blocked account and 
reimbursement therefor by the account party. Nothing in this section 
relieves any such bank or such account party from giving any notice of 
defense against payment or reimbursement that is required by applicable

deemed necessary.
    (e) Nothing in this section precludes the account party on any 
standby letter or credit or any other person from at any time contesting 
the legality of the demand from a beneficiary in the FRY (S&M) or from 
raising any other legal defense to payment under the standby letter of 
credit.
    (f) This section does not affect the obligation of the various 
parties to the instruments covered by this section if the instruments 
and payments thereunder are subsequently unblocked.
    (g) This section does not authorize any U.S. person to reimburse a

letter of credit, except by payments into a blocked account in 
accordance with Sec. 585.503 or paragraph (b) or (c) of this section.
    (h) A person receiving a specific license under paragraph (b) or (c) 
of this section shall certify to the Office of Foreign Assets Control 
within 5 business days after receipt of that license that it has 
established the blocked account on its books as provided in those 
paragraphs. However, in appropriate cases, this time period may be 
extended upon application to the Office of Foreign Assets Control when 
the account party has filed a petition with an appropriate court seeking 
a judicial order barring payment by the issuing or confirming bank.
    (i) For the purposes of this section:
    (1) The term standby letter of credit shall mean a letter of credit 
securing performance of a contract, or repayment of any advance payments

     Subpart A--Relation of This Part to Other Laws and Regulations



Sec. 595.101  Relation of this part to other laws and regulations.

    (a) This part is separate from, and independent of, the other parts 
of this chapter with the exception of part 501 of this chapter, the 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements and license application and 
other procedures of which apply to this part. Differing foreign policy 
and national security contexts may result in differing interpretations 
of similar language among the parts of this chapter. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to those other parts 
authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part. No license or 
authorization contained in or issued pursuant to any other provision of 
law or regulation authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
this part relieves the involved parties from complying with any other 
applicable laws or regulations.

States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or 
hereafter come within the possession or control of U.S. persons, 
including their overseas branches, may be transferred, paid, exported, 
withdrawn or otherwise dealt in.
    (b) When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a 
financial institution pursuant to this section and a party to the 
transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to mistaken 
identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked pursuant to 
the administrative procedures set forth in Sec. 501.806 of this chapter.
[61 FR 3806, Feb. 2, 1996, as amended at 62 FR 45111, Aug. 25, 1997]



Sec. 595.202  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the effective date, which is in violation of 
any provision of this part or of any regulation, order, directive, 
ruling, instruction, license, or other authorization hereunder and 
involves any property held in the name of a specially designated 
terrorist or in which a specially designated terrorist has or has had an 
interest since such date, is null and void

[[Page 717]]

and shall not be the basis for the assertion or recognition of any 
interest in or right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to such 
property.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with 
respect to, or interest in, any property held in the name of a specially 
designated terrorist or in which a specially designated terrorist has an 
interest, or has had an interest since such date, unless the person with 
whom such property is held or maintained, prior to such date, had 
written notice of the transfer or by any written evidence had recognized 
such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control before, during, or 
after a transfer shall validate such transfer or render it enforceable 
to the same extent that it would be valid or enforceable but for the 
provisions of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, this 
part, and any regulation, order, directive, ruling, instruction, or 
license issued hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of property which otherwise would be null and void or 
unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall not be 
deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any person with whom 
such property was held or maintained (and as to such person only) in 
cases in which such person is able to establish to the satisfaction of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the 
following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the person with whom such property was held 
or maintained;
    (2) The person with whom such property was held or maintained did 
not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in view of all the facts 
and circumstances known or available to such person, that such transfer 
required a license or authorization by or pursuant to this part and was 
not so licensed or authorized, or if a license or authorization did 
purport to cover the transfer, that such license or authorization had 
been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the withholding 
of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) The person with whom such property was held or maintained filed 
with the Office of Foreign Assets Control a report setting forth in full 
the circumstances relating to such transfer promptly upon discovery 
that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license, or other direction or 
authorization hereunder; or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control; or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the 
withholding of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained.

    Note: The filing of a report in accordance with the provisions of 
paragraph (d)(3) of this section shall not be deemed evidence that the 
terms of paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) of this section have been satisfied.

    (e) Unless licensed or authorized pursuant to this part, any 
attachment, judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other 
judicial process is null and void with respect to any property which, on 
or since the effective date, was held in the name of a specially 
designated terrorist or in which there existed an interest of a 
specially designated terrorist.



Sec. 595.203  Holding of certain types of blocked property in interest-bearing accounts.

    (a)(1) Any person, including a U.S. financial institution, currently 
holding property subject to Sec. 595.201 which, as of the effective date 
or the date of receipt if subsequent to the effective date, is not being 
held in an interest-bearing account, or otherwise invested in a manner 
authorized by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, shall transfer such 
property to, or hold such property or cause such property to be held in, 
an interest-bearing account or interest-bearing status in a U.S. 
financial institution as of the effective date or the

[[Page 718]]

date of receipt if subsequent to the effective date of this section, 
unless otherwise authorized or directed by the Office of Foreign Assets 
Control.
    (2) The requirement set forth in paragraph (a)(1) of this section 
shall apply to currency, bank deposits, accounts, obligations, and any 
other financial or economic resources or assets, and any proceeds 
resulting from the sale of tangible or intangible property. If interest 
is credited to an account separate from that in which the interest-
bearing asset is held, the name of the account party on both accounts 
must be the same and must clearly indicate the specially designated 
terrorist having an interest in the accounts. If the account is held in 
the name of a specially designated terrorist, the name of the account to 
which interest is credited must be the same.
    (b) For purposes of this section, the term interest-bearing account 
means a blocked account in a U.S. financial institution earning interest 
at rates that are commercially reasonable for the amount of funds in the 
account. Except as otherwise authorized, the funds may not be invested 
or held in instruments the maturity of which exceeds 90 days.
    (c) This section does not apply to blocked tangible property, such 
as chattels, nor does it create an affirmative obligation on the part of 
the holder of such blocked tangible property to sell or liquidate the 
property and put the proceeds in a blocked account. However, the Office 
of Foreign Assets Control may issue licenses permitting or directing 
sales of tangible property in appropriate cases.



Sec. 595.204  Prohibited dealing in property; contributions of funds, goods, or services.

    Except as otherwise authorized, no U.S. person may deal in property 
or interests in property of a specially designated terrorist, including 
the making or receiving of any contribution of funds, goods, or services 
to or for the benefit of a specially designated terrorist.



Sec. 595.205  Evasions; attempts; conspiracies.

     Subpart A--Relation of This Part to Other Laws and Regulations



Sec. 597.101  Relation of this part to other laws and regulations.

    (a) This part is separate from, and independent of, the other parts 
of this chapter, with the exception of part 501 of this chapter, the 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements and license application and 
other procedures of which apply to this part. Differing statutory 
authority and foreign policy and national security contexts may result 
in differing interpretations of similar language among the parts of this 
chapter. No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
those other parts authorizes any transaction prohibited by this part. No 
license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to any other 
provision of law or regulation authorizes any transaction prohibited by 
this part.
    (b) No license or authorization contained in or issued pursuant to 
this part relieves the involved parties from complying with any other 
applicable laws or regulations. This part does not implement, construe, 
or limit the scope of any other part of this chapter, including (but not 
limited to) the Terrorism Sanctions Regulations, part 595 of this

part of this chapter, including (but not limited to) part 595 of this 
chapter.
    (c) This part does not implement, construe, or limit the scope of

with any criminal statute, including (but not limited to) 18 U.S.C.

                         Subpart B--Prohibitions



Sec. 597.201  Prohibited transactions involving blocked assets or funds of foreign terrorist organizations or their agents.

    (a) Upon notification to Congress of the Secretary of State's intent 
to designate an organization as a foreign terrorist organization 
pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1189(a), until the publication in the Federal 
Register as described in paragraph (c) of this section, any U.S. 
financial institution receiving notice from the Secretary of the 
Treasury by means of order, directive, instruction, regulation, ruling, 
license, or otherwise shall, except as otherwise provided in such 
notice, block all financial transactions involving any assets of such 
organization within the possession or control of such U.S. financial 
institution until further directive from the Secretary of the Treasury, 
Act of Congress, or order of court.
    (b) Except as otherwise authorized by order, directive, instruction, 
regulation, ruling, license, or otherwise, from and after the 
designation of an organization as a foreign terrorist organization 
pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1189(a), any U.S. financial institution that 
becomes aware that it has possession of or control over any funds in 
which the designated foreign terrorist organization or its agent has an 
interest shall:
    (1) Retain possession of or maintain control over such funds; and
    (2) Report to the Secretary of the Treasury the existence of such 
funds in accordance with Sec. 501.603 of this chapter.
    (c) Publication in the Federal Register of the designation of an 
organization as a foreign terrorist organization pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 
1189(a) shall be deemed to constitute a further directive from the 
Secretary of the Treasury for purposes of paragraph (a) of this section, 
and shall require the actions contained in paragraph (b) of this 
section.
    (d) The requirements of paragraph (b) of this section shall remain 
in effect until the effective date of an administrative, judicial, or 
legislative revocation of the designation of an organization as a 
foreign terrorist organization, or until the designation lapses, 
pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1189.
    (e) When a transaction results in the blocking of funds at a 
financial institution pursuant to this section and a party to the 
transaction believes the funds have been blocked due to mistaken 
identity, that party may seek to have such funds unblocked pursuant to 
the administrative procedures set forth in Sec. 501.806 of this chapter. 
Requests for the unblocking of funds pursuant to Sec. 501.806 must be 
submitted to the attention of the Compliance Programs Division.



Sec. 597.202  Effect of transfers violating the provisions of this part.

    (a) Any transfer after the effective date which is in violation of 
Sec. 597.201 or any other provision of this part or of any regulation, 
order, directive, ruling, instruction, license, or other authorization 
hereunder and involves any funds or assets held in the name of a foreign 
terrorist organization or its agent or in which a foreign terrorist 
organization or its agent has or has had an interest since such date, is 
null and void and shall not be the basis for the assertion or 
recognition of any interest in or right, remedy, power or privilege with 
respect to such funds or assets.
    (b) No transfer before the effective date shall be the basis for the 
assertion or recognition of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with 
respect to, or interest in, any funds or assets held in the name of a 
foreign terrorist organization or its agent or in which a foreign 
terrorist organization or its agent has an interest, or has had an 
interest since such date, unless the financial institution with whom 
such funds or assets are held or maintained, prior to such date, had 
written notice of the transfer or by any written evidence had recognized 
such transfer.
    (c) Unless otherwise provided, an appropriate license or other 
authorization issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of 
the Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control before, during, or 
after a transfer shall validate such transfer or render it enforceable 
to the same extent that it would be valid or enforceable but for the 
provisions of this part, and any

[[Page 733]]

regulation, order, directive, ruling, instruction, or license issued 
hereunder.
    (d) Transfers of funds or assets which otherwise would be null and 
void or unenforceable by virtue of the provisions of this section shall 
not be deemed to be null and void or unenforceable as to any financial 
institution with whom such funds or assets were held or maintained (and 
as to such financial institution only) in cases in which such financial 
institution is able to establish to the satisfaction of the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control each of the following:
    (1) Such transfer did not represent a willful violation of the 
provisions of this part by the financial institution with whom such 
funds or assets were held or maintained;
    (2) The financial institution with which such funds or assets were 
held or maintained did not have reasonable cause to know or suspect, in 
view of all the facts and circumstances known or available to such 
institution, that such transfer required a license or authorization by 
or pursuant to this part and was not so licensed or authorized, or if a 
license or authorization did purport to cover the transfer, that such 
license or authorization had been obtained by misrepresentation of a 
third party or the withholding of material facts or was otherwise 
fraudulently obtained; and
    (3) The financial institution with which such funds or assets were 
held or maintained filed with the Office of Foreign Assets Control a 
report setting forth in full the circumstances relating to such transfer 
promptly upon discovery that:
    (i) Such transfer was in violation of the provisions of this part or 
any regulation, ruling, instruction, license, or other direction or 
authorization hereunder; or
    (ii) Such transfer was not licensed or authorized by the Director of 
the Office of Foreign Assets Control; or
    (iii) If a license did purport to cover the transfer, such license 
had been obtained by misrepresentation of a third party or the 
withholding of material facts or was otherwise fraudulently obtained.

    Note to paragraph (d): The filing of a report in accordance with the 
provisions of paragraph (d)(3) of this section shall not be deemed 
evidence that the terms of paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) of this section 
have been satisfied.

    (e) Except for exercises of judicial authority pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 
1189(b), unless licensed or authorized pursuant to this part, any 
attachment, judgment, decree, lien, execution, garnishment, or other 
judicial process is null and void with respect to any funds or assets 
which, on or since the effective date, were in the possession or control 
of a U.S. financial institution and were held in the name of a foreign 
terrorist organization or its agent or in which there existed an 
interest of a foreign terrorist organization or its agent.



Sec. 597.203  Holding of funds in interest-bearing accounts; investment and reinvestment.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section, or as 
otherwise directed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, any U.S. 
financial institution holding funds subject to Sec. 597.201(b) shall 
hold or place such funds in a blocked interest-bearing account which is 
in the name of the foreign terrorist organization or its agent and which 
is located in the United States.
    (b)(1) For purposes of this section, the term interest-bearing 
account means a blocked account:
    (i) in a federally-insured U.S. bank, thrift institution, or credit 
union, provided the funds are earning interest at rates which are 
commercially reasonable for the amount of funds in the account or 
certificate of deposit; or
    (ii) with a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, provided 
the funds are invested in a money market fund or in U.S. Treasury Bills.
    (2) Funds held or placed in a blocked interest-bearing account 
pursuant to this paragraph may not be invested in instruments the 
maturity of which exceeds 180 days. If interest is credited to a 
separate blocked account or sub-account, the name of the account party 
on each account must be the same and must clearly indicate the foreign 
terrorist organization or agent having an interest in the accounts.

[[Page 734]]

    (c) Blocked funds held as of the effective date in the form of 
stocks, bonds, debentures, letters of credit, or instruments which 
cannot be negotiated for the purpose of placing the funds in a blocked 
interest-bearing account pursuant to paragraph (a) may continue to be 
held in the form of the existing security or instrument until 
liquidation or maturity, provided that any dividends, interest income, 
or other proceeds derived therefrom are paid into a blocked interest-
bearing account in accordance with the requirements of this section.
    (d) Funds subject to this section may not be held, invested, or 
reinvested in a manner in which an immediate financial or economic 
benefit or access accrues to the foreign terrorist organization or its 
agent.



Sec. 597.204  Evasions; attempts; conspiracies.

    Any transaction for the purpose of, or which has the effect of,

Any attempt to violate the prohibitions set forth in this part is hereby 
prohibited. Any conspiracy formed for the purpose of engaging in a

in an amount that is the greater of $50,000 per violation, or twice the

violation of any provision of this part or a violation of the provisions

issued by or pursuant to the direction or authorization of the Secretary 
of the Treasury pursuant to this part, and the Director, acting in 
coordination with the Attorney General, determines that civil penalty 
proceedings are warranted, the Director shall issue to the person 
concerned a notice of intent to impose a monetary penalty. The 
prepenalty notice shall be issued whether or not another agency has 
taken any action with respect to this matter.
    (b) Contents--(1) Facts of violation. The prepenalty notice shall 
describe the violation, specify the laws and regulations allegedly 
violated, and state the amount of the proposed monetary penalty.
    (2) Right to respond. The prepenalty notice also shall inform the 
respondent of respondent's right to respond within 30 days of mailing of

prepenalty notice and any relevant facts, the Director of the Office of

respondent, the Director promptly shall issue a written notice of the 
imposition of the monetary penalty on the respondent. The issuance of a 
written notice of the imposition of a monetary penalty shall constitute 
final agency action.
    (2) The penalty notice shall inform the respondent that payment of 
the assessed penalty must be made within 30 days of the mailing of the 
penalty notice.

matter may be referred for administrative collection measures by the

                           Subpart A--General



Sec. 800.101  Scope.

    The regulations in this part implement section 721 of title VII of 
the Defense Production Act of 1950, hereinafter referred to as ``section 
721'' (see Sec. 800.216 of this part). The definitions in this part are 
applicable to section 721 and these regulations. The principal purpose 
of section 721 is to authorize the President to suspend or prohibit any 
merger, acquisition, or takeover, by or with a foreign person, of a 
person engaged in interstate commerce in the United States when, in the 
President's view, the foreign interest exercising control over that 
person might take action that threatens to impair the national security. 
In addition, section 721 authorizes the President to seek divestment or 
other appropriate relief in the case of concluded transactions.



Sec. 800.102  Effect on other laws.

    Nothing in this part shall be construed to alter or affect any 
existing power, process, regulation, investigation, enforcement measure, 
or review provided by any other provision of law.

[[Page 926]]



Sec. 800.103  Prior acquisitions.

    Section 721 and the regulations in this part apply to acquisitions 
concluded on or after the effective date (as defined in Sec. 800.207), 
including acquisitions concluded prior to issuance of these regulations. 
Section 721 and the regulations in this part do not apply to 
acquisitions concluded prior to the effective date.



Sec. 800.104  Transactions or devices for avoidance.

    Any transaction(s) or other device(s) entered into or employed for 
the purpose of avoiding section 721 shall be disregarded, and section 
721 and these rules shall be applied to the substance of the 
transaction(s).

    Example. Corporation A is organized under the laws of a foreign 
state and is wholly owned and controlled by a foreign national. With a 
view towards avoiding possible application of section 721, Corporation A 
transfers money to a U.S. citizen, who, pursuant to informal 
arrangements with Corporation A and on its behalf, purchases all the 
shares in Corporation X, a corporation which is organized under the laws 
of a state of the United States, and which engages in business 
activities in the United States. That sham transaction is subject to 
section 721.



                         Subpart B--Definitions



Sec. 800.201  Acquisition.

    The term acquisition is used in these regulations to refer 
collectively to an acquisition, merger, or takeover. It includes, 
without limitation:
    (a) The acquisition of a person by:
    (1) The purchase of its voting securities,
    (2) The conversion of its convertible voting securities,
    (3) The acquisition of its convertible voting securities if that 
involves the acquisition of control, or
    (4) The acquisition and the voting of proxies, if that involves the 
acquisition of control.
    (b) The acquisition of a business, including any acquisition of 
production or research and development facilities operated prior to the 
acquisition as part of a business, if there will likely be a substantial 
use of:
    (1) The technology of that business, excluding technical information 
generally accompanying the sale of equipment, or
    (2) Personnel previously employed by that business.
    (c) A consolidation.

    Example (relating to paragraph (b) of this section). Corporation A, 
organized under the laws of a foreign state and wholly owned and 
controlled by a foreign national, acquires, from separate United States 
nationals, (a) products held in inventory, (b) land, and (c) machinery 
for export. Corporation A has not acquired a business and has not made 
an acquisition within the meaning of these regulations.



Sec. 800.202  Affiliate.

    An affiliate of an entity, as that term is used in Secs. 800.205 and 
800.402, is any other entity in the chain of ownership between a parent 
and that entity.

    Example. Corporation P holds 50 percent of the voting securities of 
Corporations R and S. Corporation R holds 40 percent of the voting 
securities of Corporation X, and Corporation S holds 50 percent of the 
voting securities of Corporation Y. Under this definition, Corporation S 
is an affiliate of Corporation Y. (An entity can be both an affiliate 
and a parent.) Corporation R is not an affiliate of Corporation S or Y 
because it is not in the chain of ownership between Corporation P and 
Corporation Y. Corporation X is also not an affiliate of Corporation Y.



Sec. 800.203  Committee; Chairman of the Committee.

    The term Committee means the Committee on Foreign Investment in the 
United States, as established in Executive Order No. 11858, 40 FR 20263, 
3 CFR, 1971-1975 Comp., p. 990, as amended. The Chairman of the 
Committee is the Secretary of the Treasury.



Sec. 800.204  Control.

    (a) The term control means the power, direct or indirect, whether or 
not exercised, and whether or not exercised or exercisable through the 
ownership of a majority or a dominant minority of the total outstanding 
voting securities of an issuer, or by proxy voting, contractual 
arrangements or other means, to determine, direct or decide matters 
affecting an entity; in particular, but without limitation, to 
determine, direct, take, reach or cause decisions regarding:

[[Page 927]]

    (1) The sale, lease, mortgage, pledge or other transfer of any or 
all of the principal assets of the entity, whether or not in the 
ordinary course of business;
    (2) The dissolution of the entity;
    (3) The closing and/or relocation of the production or research and 
development facilities of the entity;
    (4) The termination or non-fulfillment of contracts of the entity; 
or
    (5) The amendment of the Articles of Incorporation or constituent 
agreement of the entity with respect to the matters described at 
paragraph (a) (1) through (4) of this section.
    (b) In examining questions of control in situations where more than 
one foreign person has an interest in a U.S. person, consideration will 
be given to factors such as whether the foreign persons are related and/
or whether they have commitments to act in concert.



Sec. 800.205  Conversion.

    The term conversion means the exercise of a right inherent in the 
ownership or holding of particular securities to exchange such 
securities for securities which currently entitle the owner or holder to 
vote for directors of the issuer or of any affiliate of the issuer.



Sec. 800.206  Convertible voting security.

    The term convertible voting security means a security which 
currently does not entitle its owner or holder to vote for directors of 
any entity and which is convertible into a voting security. See 
Secs. 800.201 and 800.302(c).



Sec. 800.207  Effective date.

    The term effective date means August 23, 1988, the date section 721 
became effective.



Sec. 800.208  Engage in.

    The term engage in, as used in the phrase seeks to engage in any 
merger, acquisition or takeover in section 721(b), means seeks to 
acquire control through.
[59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.209  Entity.

    The term entity means any branch, partnership, associated group, 
association, estate, trust, corporation, division of a corporation, 
business enterprise, or other organization (whether or not organized 
under the laws of any State), and any government (including a foreign 
government, the United States Government, a State or local government, 
and any agency, corporation, financial institution, or other entity or 
instrumentality thereof, including a government sponsored agency).
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.210  Foreign government.

    The term foreign government means any government or body exercising 
governmental functions, other than the government of the United States, 
a State of the United States, or a political subdivision of the United 
States or a State. The term includes but is not limited to national, 
state, provincial and municipal governments, including their respective 
departments, agencies, government-owned enterprises and other agencies 
and instrumentalities.
[59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.211  Foreign interest.

    The term foreign interest means any foreign person, including a 
foreign government.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.212  Foreign national.

    The term foreign national means any natural person other than a 
United States national.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.213  Foreign person.

    The term foreign person means
    (a) Any foreign national or
    (b) Any entity over which control is exercised or exercisable by a 
foreign interest.

    Example 1. Corporation A is organized under the laws of a foreign 
state and is engaged in business outside the United States. All its 
shares are held by Corporation X, which controls Corporation A. 
Corporation X is organized in the United States, and is wholly owned and 
controlled by U.S. nationals. Corporation A, although organized and 
operating outside the U.S., is not a ``foreign

[[Page 928]]

person,'' and its acquisition of a U.S. person would not be subject to 
section 721.
    Example 2. Same facts as in the first two sentences of Example 1, 
except that Country A through governmental intervenors exercises full 
decision-making power over Corporation A, including the decisions 
described in Sec. 800.204 (a) through (e). There is a foreign interest 
which is exercising control over Corporation A, which is a ``foreign 
person.''
    Example 3. Corporation A is organized under the laws of a foreign 
state and is owned and controlled by a foreign national. Through a 
branch, Corporation A engages in business in the United States. 
Corporation A and/or its branch is a ``foreign person'' should 
Corporation A make an acquisition. Its branch business in the United 
States is also a ``U.S. person'' which may be the subject of an 
acquisition.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.214  Hold.

    The terms hold(s) and holding mean legal or beneficial ownership, 
whether direct or indirect, through fiduciaries, agents or other means.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.215  Parent.

    The term parent, as used in Secs. 800.302 and 800.402, means a 
person who or which, directly or indirectly,
    (a) Holds or will hold 50 percent or more of the outstanding voting 
securities of an entity; or
    (b) In case of an entity that has no outstanding voting securities, 
holds or will hold the right to 50 percent or more of the profits of the 
entity, or has or will have the right in the event of the dissolution to 
50 percent or more of the assets of the entity.

    Example. Corporation P holds 50 percent of the voting securities of 
Corporations R and S. Corporation R holds 40 percent of the voting 
securities of Corporation X, and Corporation S holds 50 percent of the 
voting securities of Corporation Y. Corporation P is a parent of 
Corporations R, S and Y, but not of Corporation X. Corporation S is a 
parent of Corporation Y because it holds 50 percent of the voting 
securities of Corporation Y.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]

Sec. 800.217  Person.

    The term person means any natural person or entity.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]

business decisions of the issuer, including those at Sec. 800.204(a) (1) 
through (5).
    (b) Voting securities are not held solely for the purpose of

[[Page 929]]

    (2) Takes any action inconsistent with acquiring or holding such 
securities solely for the purpose of investment.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.220  United States.

States of the United States, the District of Columbia, and any 
commonwealth, territory, dependency, or possession of the United States, 
and includes the Outer Continental Shelf, as defined in section 2(a) of 
the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1131 (a)). For purposes 
of these regulations and their examples, an entity organized under the 
laws of the United States of America, one of the States, the District of 
Columbia, or a commonwealth, territory, dependency or possession of the 
United States, is an entity organized ``in the United States.''
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]

Sec. 800.222  United States person.

    The term U.S. person or United States person means any natural 
person or entity but, in the case of the latter, only to the extent of 
its business activities in interstate commerce in the United States, 
irrespective of the nationality of the natural persons or entities which 
control it.

    Example 1. Corporation A is organized under the laws of a foreign 
state and is wholly owned and controlled by a foreign national. It 
engages in business activities in a state of the U.S. through a branch 
office or subsidiary. That branch office or subsidiary of Corporation A 
is an ``entity'' and a ``U.S. person.'' The branch office or subsidiary 
is also a foreign person under Sec. 800.213.
    Example 2. Same facts as in the first sentence of Example 1. 
Corporation A, however, does not have a branch office, subsidiary or 
fixed place of business in the United States. It exports and licenses 
technology to an unrelated company in the United States. Corporation A 
is not a ``U.S. person.''
    Example 3. Corporation A is organized under the laws of a foreign 
state and is wholly owned and controlled by Corporation X. Corporation X 
is organized in the United States and is wholly owned and controlled by 
U.S. nationals. Corporation A does not have a branch office, subsidiary, 
or fixed place of business in the United States. It exports goods to 
Corporation X and to unrelated companies in the United States. The sale 
of Corporation A by Corporation X to a foreign person would not 
constitute an acquisition of a U.S. person for purposes of section 721.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated and amended at 59 FR 27179, 
May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.223  Voting securities.

    The term voting securities means any securities which at present or 
upon conversion entitle the owner or holder thereof to vote for the 
election of directors of the issuer, or, with respect to unincorporated 
entities, individuals exercising similar functions.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991. Redesignated at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



                           Subpart C--Coverage



Sec. 800.301  Transactions that are acquisitions under section 721.

    (a) Section 721 applies to acquisitions:
    (1) Proposed or pending on or after the effective date
    (2) By or with foreign persons
    (3) Which could result in foreign control of persons engaged in 
interstate commerce in the United States.
    (b) Transactions that are acquisitions under section 721 include, 
without limitation:
    (1) Proposed or completed acquisitions by or with foreign persons 
which could or did result in foreign control of a U.S. person, 
irrespective of the actual arrangements for control planned or in place 
for that particular acquisition.

    Example 1. Corporation A, a foreign person, proposes to purchase all 
the shares in Corporation X, which is organized in the United States and 
engages in interstate commerce in the United States.

[[Page 930]]

    Under the applicable law, Corporation A will have the right to elect 
directors and appoint other primary officers of Corporation X, and those 
directors will have the right to reach decisions about the closing and 
relocation of particular production facilities, and the termination of 
contracts. They also will have the right to propose (for approval by 
Corporation A as a shareholder) the dissolution of Corporation X and the 
sale of its principal assets.
    For purposes of section 721, the proposed acquisition of Corporation 
X by Corporation A would result in control of a U.S. person (Corporation 
X) by a foreign person (Corporation A).
    Example 2. Same facts as in Example 1, except that Corporation A 
plans to retain the existing directors of Corporation X, all of whom are 
U.S. nationals.
    Although, under these plans, Corporation A may not in fact exercise 
control over Corporation X (because the directors as U.S. nationals may 
exercise that control), the acquisition of Corporation X by Corporation 
A still would result in foreign control over a U.S. person for purposes 
of section 721.

    (2) A proposed acquisition by or with a foreign person, which could 
result in foreign control of a U.S. person, including, without 
limitation, an offer to purchase all or a substantial portion of the 
securities of a U.S. person.

    Example. Corporation A, a foreign person makes an offer to purchase 
all the shares in Corporation X, a U.S. person. That acquisition is 
``proposed'' and subject to section 721.

    (3) Proposed or completed acquisitions, even by entities organized 
in the United States, if those entities are ``foreign persons,'' and if 
those acquisitions could or did result in a different foreign interest 
controlling the U.S. person to be acquired.

    Example 1. Corporation X is organized and operates in the United 
States. Its shares are held by a foreign person. While Corporation X is 
a ``U.S. person,'' it is also a ``foreign person'' within the meaning of 
section 721, because control over it is or could be exercised by a 
foreign person. Its acquisition of a U.S. person is subject to section 
721 because that acquisition could result in control by Corporation X (a 
``foreign person'') of a U.S. person.
    Example 2. Same facts as Example 1, except that Corporation Y, a 
foreign person, seeks to acquire Corporation X from its existing 
shareholder. That proposed acquisition is subject to section 721 because 
it could result in control of Corporation X (in this context a ``U.S. 
person'') by a different foreign person (Corporation Y).

    (4) Proposed or completed acquisitions by or with foreign persons 
which involve acquisitions of businesses and could or did result in 
foreign control of businesses located in the United States.

    Example 1. Corporation A, a foreign person, proposes to buy a branch 
office business in the United States of Corporation X, which is a 
foreign person. For purposes of these regulations, the branch office 
business of Corporation X is a United States person to the extent of its 
business activities in the U.S., and the proposed acquisition of the 
business in question is subject to section 721.
    Example 2. Corporation A, a foreign person, buys a branch office 
business located entirely outside the United States of Corporation Y, 
which is incorporated in the United States. The branch office business 
of Corporation Y is not deemed to be a United States person, and the 
acquisition is not subject to section 721.
    Example 3. Corporation A, a foreign person, makes a start-up or 
``greenfield'' investment in the United States. That investment involves 
such activities as separately arranging for the financing of and the 
construction of a plant to make a new product, buying supplies and 
inputs, hiring personnel, and purchasing the necessary technology. The 
investment may involve the acquisition of shares in a newly incorporated 
subsidiary. Corporation A will not have acquired the ``business'' of a 
U.S. person, and its greenfield investment is not subject to section 
721.

    (5) Joint ventures in which a United States person and a foreign 
person enter into contractual or other similar arrangements, including 
agreements on the establishment of a new entity, but only if a United 
States person contributes an existing identifiable business in the 
United States and a foreign interest would gain control over that 
existing business by means of the joint venture.

    Example 1. Corporation A, a foreign person, and Corporation X, a 
United States person, form a separate corporation, JV Corp., to which 
Corporation X contributes an identifiable business in the United States. 
There is no foreign interest which does or could exercise control over 
Corporation X. Under the Articles of Incorporation of JV Corp., Corp. A 
through its shareholding in JV Corp. may elect a majority of the Board 
of Directors of JV Corp. The formation of JV Corp. could result in 
foreign control of a U.S. person and is an acquisition subject to 
section 721.
    Example 2. Same facts as in Example 1, except that Corporations A 
and X each own 50 percent of the shares of JV Corp. and, under

[[Page 931]]

the Articles of Incorporation of JV Corp. both A and X have veto power 
over all decisions by JV Corp. identified under Sec. 800.204(a) (1) 
through (5). The formation of JV Corp. is not an acquisition subject to 
section 721.
    Example 3. Corporation A, a foreign person, and Corporation X, a 
United States person, form a separate corporation, JV Corp., to which 
Corporation A contributes funding and managerial and technical 
personnel, while Corporation X contributes certain patents and equipment 
that do not under these circumstances constitute an identifiable 
business. The formation of JV Corp. is not an acquisition subject to 
section 721.

Sec. 800.302  Transactions that are not acquisitions under section 721.

    The following transactions are not considered acquisitions for 
purposes of section 721:
    (a) An acquisition of voting securities pursuant to a stock split or 
pro rata stock dividend which does not involve a change in control.
    (b) An acquisition in which the parent of the entity making the 
acquisition is the same as the parent of the entity being acquired.

    Example. Corporation A, a foreign person, merges its two wholly 
owned U.S. subsidiaries S1 and S2, and in addition creates a new U.S. 
subsidiary, S3. S3 then buys a business from S4, another wholly-owned 
U.S. subsidiary of Corporation A. These acquisitions are not subject to 
section 721.

    (c) An acquisition of convertible voting securities that does not 
involve control.

    Example. Corporation A, a foreign person, buys debentures, options 
and warrants of Corporation X, a U.S. person. By their terms, the 
debentures are convertible into common stock, and the options and 
warrants can be exercised for common stock. The acquisition of those 
debentures, options and warrants is not subject to section 721 so long 
as it does not involve control. The conversion of those debentures into 
common stock, or the exchange of those options and warrants for common 
stock, may be an acquisition for purposes of section 721. See 
Sec. 800.201.

    (d) A purchase of voting securities or comparable interests in a 
United States person solely for the purpose of investment, as defined in 
Sec. 800.219, if, as a result of the acquisition,
    (1) The foreign person would hold ten percent or less of the 
outstanding voting securities of the U.S. person, regardless of the 
dollar value of the voting securities so acquired or held, or
    (2) The purchase is made directly by a bank, trust company, 
insurance company, investment, company, pension fund, employee benefit 
plan, mutual fund, finance company or brokerage company in the ordinary 
course of business for its own account, provided that a significant 
portion of that business does not involve the acquisition of entities.

    Example 1. In an open market purchase solely for the purpose of 
investment, Corporation A, a foreign person, acquires 7 percent of the 
voting securities of Corporation X, which is incorporated under the laws 
of the United States. The acquisition of those securities is not subject 
to section 721.
    Example 2. Same facts as Example 1 except Corporation A is an 
investment company which makes only portfolio investments. It purchases 
14 percent of the voting securities of Corporation X for its own 
account, solely for the purpose of investment. The acquisition of those 
securities is not subject to section 721.
    Example 3. Same facts as Example 2 except that a significant portion 
of the business of Corporation A is acquiring control over corporations. 
Its purchase of 14 percent of the shares of Corporation X is subject to 
section 721.

    (e) An acquisition of assets in the United States that does not 
constitute a business in the United States. See Secs. 800.201 and 
800.301(b)(4).

    Example 1. Corporation A, a foreign person, acquires, from separate 
United States nationals, (a) products held in inventory, (b) land, and 
(c) machinery for export. Corporation A has not acquired a ``business'' 
within the meaning of section 721.
    Example 2. Corporation X produces armored personnel carriers in the 
United States. Corporation A, a foreign person, seeks to acquire the 
annual production of those carriers from Corporation X under a long-term 
contract. Neither the proposed acquisition of those carriers, nor the 
actual acquisition, is subject to section 721.
    Example 3. Same facts as Example 2, except that Corporation X, a 
U.S. person, has developed important technology in connection with the 
production of armored personnel carriers. Corporation A seeks to 
negotiate an agreement under which it would be licensed to manufacture 
using that technology. Neither the proposed acquisition of technology 
pursuant to that license agreement, nor the actual acquisition, is 
subject to section 721.

[[Page 932]]

    Example 4. Same facts as Example 2, except that Corporation A enters 
into a contractual arrangement to acquire the entire armored personnel 
carrier business of Corporation X, including production facilities, 
customer lists, technology and staff. This acquisition is subject to 
section 721. See Sec. 800.201.

    (f) An acquisition of securities by a person acting as a securities 
underwriter, in the ordinary course of business, and in the process of 
underwriting.
    (g) An acquisition pursuant to a condition in a contract of 
insurance relating to fidelity, surety, or casualty obligations if the 
contract was made by an insurer in the ordinary course of business.
    (h) An acquisition of a security interest, but not control, in the 
voting securities or assets of a U.S. person at the time a loan or other 
financing is extended (see Sec. 800.303).
    (i) An acquisition of voting securities or assets that does not 
involve an acquisition of control of a person engaged in interstate 
commerce in the United States.

    Example 1. Corporation A, which is organized under the laws of a 
foreign state and is controlled by foreign persons, advises the 
Committee that it intends to acquire seven percent of the voting 
securities of Corporation X, which is organized under the laws of the 
United States and engaged in interstate commerce within the United 
States. In this particular case, Corporation A's purchase of this 
interest in Corporation X would not be sufficient to permit Corporation 
A to control Corporation X for purposes of Sec. 800.204. This 
transaction is not an acquisition for purposes of section 721.
    Example 2. Corporation A, which is organized under the laws of a 
foreign state and controlled by foreign persons, acquires from 
Corporation B 100 percent of the voting securities of Corporation X, a 
wholly-owned subsidiary of Corporation B that is organized under the 
laws of the United States. Corporation X currently has no employees, 
plants, equipment or subsidiaries in the United States. Corporation B 
maintains records in the United States on behalf of Corporation X and 
uses U.S. mail and telecommunications facilities on its behalf. For 
purposes of section 721, Corporation X is not engaged in interstate 
commerce in the United States, and the acquisition by Corporation A of 
securities of Corporation X is not an acquisition for purposes of 
section 721.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991, as amended at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.303  Lending transactions.

    (a) The extension of a loan or similar financing by a foreign person 
to a U.S. person, accompanied by the creation in the foreign person of a 
secured interest in securities or other assets of the U.S. person, does 
not, by itself, subject the transaction to section 721. However, if 
control is acquired by the foreign person at the time the loan or other 
financing is extended, then the transaction may be subject to section 
721.
    (1) The Committee will not, at the time of extension of the loan or 
other financing, accept notices from parties to a loan or other 
financing transaction in which control is not acquired by the foreign 
person at that time.
    (2) The Committee will accept notices concerning transactions that 
involve loans or financing by foreign persons where, because of imminent 
or actual default or other condition, there is a significant possibility 
that the foreign person may obtain control of the U.S. person.
    (3) For purposes of this section, in determining whether an 
acquisition of a U.S. person by a foreign person results in foreign 
control under section 721, the Committee will take into account 
arrangements which the foreign person might establish to transfer day-
to-day control over the U.S. person to U.S. nationals.
    (b) Control will not be deemed to be acquired for purposes of 
section 721 in cases involving an acquisition of voting securities or 
assets of a U.S. person by a foreign person upon default, or other 
condition, involving a loan or other financing, provided that the loan 
was made by a syndicate of banks in a loan participation where the 
foreign lender (or lenders) in the syndicate:
    (1) Needs the majority consent of the U.S. participants in the 
syndicate to take action, and cannot on its own initiate any action vis-
a-vis the debtor; or
    (2) Does not have a lead role in the syndicate, and is subject to a 
provision in the loan or financing documents limiting its influence, 
ownership or control of the debtor such that control

[[Page 933]]

for purposes of Sec. 800.204 could not be acquired.

    Example. Corporation A, a foreign person, intends to acquire

and which has a Facility Security Clearance under the Department of 
Defense Industrial Security Program. See Department of Defense, 
``Industrial Security Regulation,'' DOD 5220.22-R, and ``Industrial 
Security Manual for Safeguarding Classified Information,'' DOD 5220.22-
M. Corporation X accordingly files a revised Form DD 441s, and enters 
into discussions with the Defense Investigative Service about 
effectively insulating its facilities from the foreign interest.
    Paragraph (d) requires that certain specific information about these 
steps be reported to the Committee in a voluntary notice.

    (e) In the case of a joint venture subject to section 721, 
information for the voluntary notice shall be prepared on the assumption 
that the foreign person which is party to the joint venture has made an 
acquisition of the business or businesses that the U.S. person which is

financial results stated in the annual report of any direct or indirect 
parent of any such entity.
    (h) Persons filing a voluntary notice shall, during the time that 
the matter is pending before the Committee or the President, promptly

[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991, as amended at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.403  Treatment of certain voluntary notices.

    The Committee, acting through the Staff Chairman, may
    (a) Reject voluntary notices not complying with Sec. 800.402;
    (b) Delay the beginning of the thirty-day review period until 
information specified in Sec. 800.402 has been furnished to the 
Committee;
    (c) Reject any voluntary notice at any time if, after the notice has 
been submitted and before action by the Committee or the President has 
been concluded, there is a material change in the transaction as to 
which notification has been made; and
    (d) Notify the party submitting a voluntary notice that an analysis 
of national security considerations will not be undertaken in cases 
where the Committee has found that a transaction presented is not 
subject to section 721.

    Example 1. The Staff Chairman receives a joint filing by Corporation 
A, a foreign person, and Corporation X, a company that is owned and 
controlled by U.S. nationals, with respect to Corporation A's intent to 
purchase all of the shares of Corporation X. The joint filing does not 
contain any information

[[Page 936]]

described under Sec. 800.402(c)(3) (iv) and (v) concerning classified 
materials and products or services supplied to the U.S. military 
services. The Staff Chairman may (1) reject the filing, or (2) delay the 
start of the thirty-day review period while the parties are asked to 
supply the omitted information.
    Example 2. Same facts as in first sentence of Example 1, except that 
the joint filing indicates that Corporation A does not intend to 
purchase Corporation X's Division Y, which is engaged in classified work 
for a U.S. Government agency. Corporations A and X notify the Committee 
on the 25th day of the 30-day notice period that Division Y will also be 
acquired by Corporation A. This fact constitutes a material change with 
respect to the transaction as originally notified, and the Staff 
Chairman may reject the notice.
    Example 3. The Staff Chairman receives a joint filing by Corporation 
A, a foreign person, and Corporation X, a company that is owned and 
controlled by U.S. nationals, indicating that Corporation A intends to 
purchase 10.5 percent of the voting securities of Corporation X. Under 
the particular facts and circumstances presented, the Committee 
concluded that Corporation A's purchase of this interest in Corporation 
X would not constitute control as defined in Sec. 800.204. The Staff 
Chairman may advise the parties in writing that the transaction as 
presented is not subject to section 721 and that no analysis of national 
security considerations has been undertaken.



Sec. 800.404  Beginning of thirty-day review period.

    (a) A thirty-day period for review of the acquisition shall be 
deemed to commence on the next calendar day after voluntary notice has 
been accepted, agency notice has been received by the Staff Chairman of 
the Committee, or the Chairman of the Committee has requested an 
investigation pursuant to Sec. 800.401. Such review shall end no later 
than the thirtieth day after it has commenced, or if the thirtieth day 
is not a business day, no later than the next business day after the 
thirtieth day.
    (b) Within two business days after its receipt by the Staff 
Chairman, the Staff Chairman of the Committee shall send written advice 
of an agency notice to the parties to an acquisition.



        Subpart E--Committee Procedures: Review and Investigation



Sec. 800.501  General.

    (a) The Committee's review or investigation (if it has been 
determined that an investigation shall be conducted) shall examine, as 
appropriate, whether:
    (1) The acquisition is by or with a foreign person and could result 
in control by a foreign person of a U.S. person or persons engaged in 
interstate commerce in the United States;
    (2) There is credible evidence to support a belief that the foreign 
interest exercising control of the U.S. person to be acquired might take 
action that threatens to impair the national security; and
    (3) Provisions of law, other than section 721 and the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706), provide adequate 
and appropriate authority to protect the national security.
    (b) During the thirty-day review period or during an investigation, 
the Staff Chairman may invite the parties to a notified transaction to 
attend a meeting with the Committee staff to discuss and clarify issues 
pertaining to the transaction. During an investigation, a party to the 
investigated transaction may request a meeting with the Committee staff; 
such a request ordinarily will be granted.



Sec. 800.502  Determination not to investigate.

    (a) If the Committee determines, during the review period described 
in Sec. 800.404, not to undertake an investigation, such determination 
shall conclude action under section 721.
    (b) The Staff Chairman of the Committee shall promptly advise the 
parties to an acquisition of a determination not to investigate.



Sec. 800.503  Commencement of investigation.

    (a) If it is determined that an investigation should be undertaken, 
such investigation shall commence no later

[[Page 937]]

than the end of the thirty-day period described in Sec. 800.404.
    (b) The Staff Chairman of the Committee shall promptly send written 
advice to the parties to an acquisition of the commencement of an 
investigation.



Sec. 800.504  Completion or termination of investigation and report to the President.

    (a) The Committee shall complete its investigation no later than the 
forty-fifth day after the date the investigation commences, or, if the 
forty-fifth day is not a business day, no later than the next business 
day after the forty-fifth day.
    (b) Upon completion or termination of any investigation, the 
Committee shall report to the President and present a recommendation. 
Any such report shall include information relevant to subparagraphs (e) 
(1) and (2) of section 721. If the Committee is unable to reach a 
unanimous recommendation, the Chairman shall submit a report of the 
Committee to the President setting forth the differing views and 
presenting the issues for decision.
[56 FR 58780, Nov. 21, 1991, as amended at 59 FR 27179, May 25, 1994]



Sec. 800.505  Withdrawal of notice.

    (a) A party to an acquisition that has submitted notice under 
Sec. 800.401(a), or, if more than one such party has submitted notice, 
the parties to an acquisition, may, at any time prior to an announcement 
by the President of his decision as described in Sec. 800.601, request 
in writing that such notice(s) be withdrawn. Such request shall be 
directed to the Staff Chairman and shall state the reasons why the 
request is being made. Such requests will ordinarily be granted, except 
as determined by the Committee. A written notification of the decision 
on the request to withdraw notice shall be sent promptly to the 
requester(s).
    (b) Any withdrawal in writing of an agency notice by the agency that 
submitted it shall be effective on its receipt by the Staff Chairman, 
who shall promptly send notice of the withdrawal to the parties to an 
acquisition.
    (c) In any case where a request to withdraw notice is granted under 
paragraph (a), or where the withdrawal is effective under paragraph (b) 
of this section, or where notice has been rejected under Sec. 800.403, 
such notice shall be considered not to have been made for purposes of 
Sec. 800.401. Section 800.702 shall nevertheless apply with respect to 
information or documentary material filed with the Committee. With 
respect to any subsequent acquisition among the parties that is within 
this part, notice made in accordance with Sec. 800.401 shall be deemed a 
new notice for purposes of these regulations, including Sec. 800.601.



                     Subpart F--Presidential Action



Sec. 800.601  Statutory time frame, standards for Presidential action, and permissible actions under section 721.

    (a) The President shall announce his decision to take action 
pursuant to section 721 no later than the fifteenth day after an 
investigation is completed, or, if the fifteenth day is not a business 
day, no later than the next business day following the fifteenth day.
    (b) The President may exercise the authority conferred by section 
721(d) if the President makes the findings required by section 721(e), 
namely, that--
    (1) There is credible evidence that leads the President to believe 
that the foreign interest exercising control might take action that 
threatens to impair the national security, and
    (2) Provisions of law, other than section 721 and the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706), do not in the 
President's judgment provide adequate and appropriate authority for the 
President to protect the national security in the matter before the 
President.
    The President's findings under section 721(d) shall not be subject 
to judicial review.
    (c) Under section 721 (d) and (e), the President:
    (1) Is empowered to take such action for such time as the President 
considers appropriate to suspend or prohibit any acquisition subject to 
section 721 that is the subject of a recommendation or recommendations 
by the Committee; and

[[Page 938]]

    (2) Is empowered to direct the Attorney General to seek appropriate 
relief, including divestment relief, in the district courts of the 
United States in order to implement and enforce section 721.
    (d) All authority available to the President under section 721(d), 
including divestment authority, shall remain available at the discretion 
of the President in respect of acquisitions which have been concluded at 
any time on or after the effective date, but only if the purpose for 
which divestment or other appropriate relief is sought is based on 
facts, conditions, or circumstances existing at the time the transaction 
was concluded. Such authority shall not be exercised if:
    (1) The Committee, through its Staff Chairman, has in writing 
advised a party (or the parties) that a particular transaction, with 
respect to which voluntary notice was attempted, was not subject to 
section 721;
    (2) The Committee has previously determined under Sec. 800.502 not 
to undertake an investigation of the acquisition when proposed, pending, 
or completed; or
    (3) The President has previously determined not to exercise his 
authority under section 721 with respect to that acquisition.
    (e) Notwithstanding any other provision in these regulations, in any 
case where the parties to an acquisition submitted false or misleading 
material information to the Committee, or omitted material information, 
including relevant information that was supplied in response to 
provisions of Sec. 800.402; that was requested specifically by the 
Committee in the course of review, investigation, or Presidential 
determination; or that was actually provided by a party, in addition to 
such other penalties as may be provided by law,
    (1) The Committee may reopen its review or investigation of the 
transaction, and revise any recommendation or recommendations submitted 
to the President;
    (2) Any Committee member may submit or resubmit an agency notice 
under Sec. 800.401, to begin anew the process of review and 
investigation; and/or
    (3) The President may take such action for such time as the 
President deems appropriate in respect of the acquisition, and may 
revise actions earlier taken.
    (f) The Committee will generally not consider as material minor 
inaccuracies, omissions, or changes relating to financial or commercial 
factors not having a bearing on national security.

    Example 1. Corporation A, a foreign person, states in its joint 
filing with Corporation X, a U.S.-controlled person, that Corporation A 
will acquire all of the shares of Corporation X at $100 per share on 
July 31, 1991. For commercial reasons, the acquisition in fact takes 
place on August 31 of the same year, and the actual price paid per share 
is $150. The Committee would not regard these factors alone as reason to 
set aside a prior decision by the Committee not to investigate the 
proposed transaction.
    Example 2. Same facts as stated in sentence one of Example 1, except 
that the joint filing of Corporations A and X also states, in responding 
to Sec. 800.402(b)(3)(iv), that Corporation X has no contracts involving 
classified information. In fact, Corporation X has classified contracts 
with the Department of Defense. The statement would be considered false 
and could lead to action by the Committee under paragraph (e) of this 
section.

    (g) Divestment or other relief under section 721 shall not be 
available with respect to transactions that were concluded prior to the 
effective date.

            Subpart G--Provision and Handling of Information



Sec. 800.701  Obligation of parties to provide information.

    (a) Parties to a transaction which is notified under subpart D shall 
provide information to the Staff Chairman of the Committee that will 
enable the Committee to conduct a full review and/or investigation of 
the proposed transaction, and shall promptly advise the Staff Chairman 
of any changes in plans or information pursuant to Sec. 800.402(h). See, 
generally, 50 U.S.C. app. 2155(a) for authorities available to the 
Committee for obtaining information.

[[Page 939]]

    (b) Documentary materials or information required or requested to be 
submitted under this part shall be submitted in English. Supplementary 
materials, such as annual reports, written in a foreign language, shall 
be submitted in certified English translation, at the request of the 
Committee.



Sec. 800.702  Confidentiality.

    (a) Section 721(c) provides that any information or documentary 
material filed with the Committee pursuant to these regulations shall be 
exempt from disclosure under section 552 of title 5, United States Code, 
and no such information or documentary material may be made public, 
except as may be relevant to any administrative or judicial action or 
proceeding. Nothing in section 721 shall be construed to prevent 
disclosure to either House of Congress or to any duly authorized 
committee or subcommittee of the Congress.
    (b) The provisions of 50 U.S.C. app. 2155(e) relating to fines and 
imprisonment shall apply in respect of disclosure of information or 
documentary material filed with the Committee under these regulations.

      Appendix A to Part 800--Preamble to Regulations on Mergers, 
 Acquisitions, and Takeovers by Foreign Persons (Published November 21, 
                                  1991)

    Note: For the convenience of the reader, this appendix contains the 
text of the preamble to the final regulations on mergers, acquisitions 
and takeovers by foreign persons beginning at the heading ``Discussion 
of Final Rule'' and ending before ``List of Subjects in 31 CFR Part 
800'' (56 FR 58780; November 21, 1991). Certain sections of the 
regulations were renumbered in a final rule published on May 25, 1994, 
and those number changes are reflected in the ``Section-by-Section 
Discussion of Changes'' in this appendix. (See appendix B of this part 
for the preamble of the May 25, 1994, final rule.)

                        Discussion of Final Rule

                             I. Introduction

    On July 14, 1989, the Department of the Treasury published proposed 
Regulations Pertaining to Mergers, Acquisitions and Takeovers by Foreign 
Persons. The purpose of the proposed regulations was to implement 
section 721 (hereinafter referred to as ``section 721'') of title VII of 
the Defense Production Act of 1950, as added section 5021 of the Omnibus 
Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100-418), relating to 
mergers, acquisitions, and takeovers of U.S. persons by or with foreign 
persons. Section 721, which was subject to the sunset provision of the 
DPA, lapsed on October 20, 1990, and was reinstated and made permanent 
law by Public Law 102-99 (signed August 17, 1991).
    The period for receiving comments on the proposed regulations closed 
on September 14, 1989; during that time, over seventy parties--including 
private and public, as well as domestic and foreign entities--filed in 
total some 500 pages of comments. The changes that have been 
incorporated into the final version of the regulations reflect both 
suggestions made in those comments and the experience of the Committee 
on Foreign Investment in the United States (``the Committee'') in 
reviewing transactions notified under section 721 since the proposed 
regulations were published. These changes are of a substantive nature as 
well as of a technical nature; examples of the latter include 
clarifications of terms and changes in format. The substantive issues 
will be discussed in the next section; the most significant technical 
changes will be discussed in the third section of this preamble.

 II. General Discussion: Major Substantive Issues Raised by the Public 
                                Comments

    Despite the wide range of interests represented by the public 
comments and the large volume of those comments, the comments generally 
focused on nine major issues: the meaning of ``national security''; the 
scope of section 721's coverage, focusing largely on the size of a 
transaction or date of completion; the definition of ``foreign 
control''; the application of section 721 to foreign lenders; the 
desirability of fast track treatment for certain types of transactions; 
the treatment of transactions involving hostile parties; the provisions 
of the regulations providing remedies for material omissions or errors; 
Committee procedures; and the possibility of a ``sunset'' on the 
President's power to act under section 721 on non-notified transactions. 
The suggested resolutions of these issues varied significantly in many 
cases. Each of these major issues, including some of the resolutions 
proposed by the public, will be discussed generally in this section of 
the preamble. A more detailed analysis, tied to the actual wording of 
the final regulations, follows in the next section. The final section 
reiterates certain information on international obligations of the 
United States that was set forth in the preamble to the proposed 
regulations.

[[Page 940]]

                            National Security

    The desire for a definition of ``national security,'' or for 
expanded guidance as to the meaning of that term, was a major theme of 
the public comments. Commenters had a wide range of recommendations on 
this point. Their suggestions, as well as the Committee's view of them, 
will be discussed generally in the following paragraphs.
    Some commenters suggested that changes be made in the regulations to 
incorporate either positive lists of products and services considered 
essential to the national security, or negative lists of areas that are 
not so considered. Other commenters suggested that the regulations 
incorporate a multi-factor test, based on a list of products and 
services the significance of which to the national security would depend 
on a number of other factors, such as the dollar value of the 
transaction, or the availability of the product or service from other 
U.S. suppliers. The Committee rejected these proposals, because they 
could improperly curtail the President's broad authority to protect the 
national security, and, at the same time, not result in guidance 
sufficiently detailed to be helpful to parties.
    A third approach recommended in the public comments was to offer 
guidance as to the factors that are considered in a national security 
analysis. Such guidance would not have the legal effect of exemptions or 
lists, but would be intended to give the Committee's general views as to 
when filing might be considered appropriate. The Committee has adopted a 
limited form of this latter approach; however, since it believes such 
guidance is more appropriate to the preamble than the regulations 
themselves, the guidance is set forth below.
    As is made clear in the principal legislative history (H.R. Report 
No. 576, 100th Cong., 2d Sess. 925-928, hereinafter ``Conference 
Report''), the focus of section 721 is on transactions that could 
threaten to impair the national security. Although neither the statute 
nor the Conference Report defines national security, the conferees 
explain that it is to be interpreted broadly and without limitation to 
particular industries. Conference Report at 926-927. In line with both 
the statute and the Conference Report, the final regulations do not 
define ``national security.'' Ultimately, under section 721 and the 
Constitution the judgment as to whether a transaction threatens national 
security rests within the President's discretion.
    Generally speaking, transactions that involve products, services, 
and technologies that are important to U.S. national defense 
requirements will usually be deemed significant with respect to the 
national security. It is the Committee's view that notice, while 
voluntary, would clearly be appropriate when, for example, a company is 
being acquired that provides products or key technologies essential to 
U.S. defense requirements. On the other hand, the Committee does not 
intend to suggest that notice should be submitted in cases where the 
entire output of a company to be acquired consists of products and/or 
services that clearly have no particular relationship to national 
security.
    The regulations contemplate that persons considering transactions 
will exercise their own judgment and discretion in determining whether 
to give notice to the Committee with respect to a particular 
transaction. Nonetheless, persons wishing to seek general guidance are 
invited to contact the office of the Staff Chairman, at the address and 
telephone number indicated above.
    In addition to proposing changes to the regulations themselves, a 
number of commenters suggested that the Committee publish guidance 
outside the regulations, in order to enhance public understanding of 
``national security.'' For example, some suggested that the Committee 
issue binding advisory opinions with respect to transactions on the 
strength of something less than full notice. The Committee rejected this 
suggestion on the grounds that it would be impossible for the Committee 
to fulfill its obligation to make a thorough national security analysis 
based on an abbreviated or informal filing, and the Committee in such 
cases would generally have to advise the parties to submit a formal 
filing, resulting in lost time on both sides.
    Several parties asked the Committee to consider publishing in 
summary form a digest of all the reviews and investigations the 
Committee had undertaken, including information on how the Committee 
disposed of each transaction. This approach was determined to have two 
essential shortcomings. First, national security considerations preclude 
revealing why the Committee or the President reached a particular view. 
Without that information, parties could inappropriately conclude that an 
outcome in a previous case would be relevant to the outcome of their own 
case where both appeared to involve similar facts and circumstances. The 
public would have no way of assessing which factors were most important 
to the Committee's final determination, or whether other factors, not 
mentioned in the summary, played an important role in the outcome. 
Second, the Committee is statutorily required to maintain 
confidentiality with respect to section 721 filings. Publication of even 
``cleansed'' summaries could sacrifice the confidentiality of a filing 
and potentially create concerns by parties over inadvertent publication 
of business confidential information, while affording relatively little 
useful information to readers.

[[Page 941]]

                            Scope of Coverage

    With respect to the scope of coverage of section 721, a number of 
parties suggested various ``bright line'' tests to eliminate certain 
transactions from coverage, primarily based on their size, but also on 
other criteria. For example, it was frequently suggested that 
transactions under a certain dollar threshold be exempted, on the theory 
that very small acquisitions could not possibly have a meaningful impact 
on the national security. Other parties suggested a test based on the 
market share represented by a particular transaction. Because the 
Committee's experience in reviewing notified transactions has 
demonstrated that there is no predictable relationship between the size 
or dollar value of a transaction and its significance to the national 
security, it decided that it would be inappropriate to adopt bright line 
tests based on such criteria.
    Many commenters argued that there should be an exemption for 
transactions completed after the date on which section 721 became 
effective (August 23, 1988), but which were not notified to the 
Committee. The Committee has not adopted this suggestion, which, in the 
Committee's view, would seriously undermine the effectiveness of the 
statute.
    The regulations establish a voluntary, rather than a mandatory, 
system of notice. Nevertheless, the Committee wanted to ensure that the 
President would be able to act with respect to any transaction that 
might threaten the national security. For this reason, agency notice was 
permitted for transactions that were not notified by parties to the 
transaction. Also, as an incentive for parties to give notice of 
transactions that might raise concerns, the possibility of Presidential 
action exists for completed transactions that have not been notified to 
the Committee.
    This approach is justified by the language of section 721. The first 
sentence of paragraph (a) of section 721 provides:

    The President or his designee may make an investigation to determine 
the effects on national security of mergers, acquisitions, and takeovers 
proposed or pending on or after the date of enactment of this section by 
or with foreign persons which could result in foreign control of persons 
engaged in interstate commerce in the United States. (Emphasis 
provided).

    The plain meaning of this sentence is that one of two criteria must 
be present to bring a transaction under section 721. A transaction must 
have been proposed on or after the date of enactment, or it must be (or 
have been) pending on or after the date of enactment to be subject to 
section 721. This language does not exclude completed transactions. 
Thus, a transaction proposed on or after the date of enactment--
regardless of whether it is completed by the time of notice--is subject 
to section 721. Similarly, a transaction proposed before the effective 
date but still pending on or after that date would also be subject to 
section 721, again, regardless of whether it was completed at the time 
of notice.
    Some commenters have read the second sentence of section 721(a) as 
suggesting that Congress did not intend to capture completed 
transactions. That sentence reads: ``If it is determined that an 
investigation should be undertaken, it shall commence no later than 30 
days after receipt by the President or the President's designee of 
written notice of the proposed or pending merger, acquisition, or 
takeover as prescribed by regulations promulgated pursuant to this 
section.'' (Emphasis added.) Some commenters have argued that this 
sentence suggests that transactions must also be proposed or pending as 
of the time of notice, thereby precluding notice of completed 
transactions.
    However, it would be inconsistent with the national security 
purposes of the statute to infer that Congress intended to establish a 
large loophole by which parties could avoid a review under section 721 
simply by not giving notice of a transaction. It is much more reasonable 
to view this language as reflecting the usual case, i.e., that parties 
give notice or transactions while they are still proposed or pending, 
but not precluding notice of completed transactions as well. Once a 
transaction is subject to section 721, all of the powers and remedies 
granted the President under that section apply to the transaction, 
including, but not limited to, divestment relief. Section 721(c) 
provides that the President may ``take any action * * * to suspend or 
prohibit any acquisition * * * proposed or pending on or after the date 
of enactment of this section * * * so that [foreign] control will not 
threaten to impair the national security.'' Section 721(c) further 
provides that the President ``may direct the Attorney General to seek 
appropriate relief, including divestment relief * * * in order to 
implement and enforce this section.'' Again, the relief available under 
the statute for any transaction pending on or after the date of 
enactment is broad, and nothing in the statute narrows the availability 
of any Presidential remedies.

                             Foreign Control

    The proposed regulations defined control functionally, in terms of 
the ability of the acquirer to make certain important decisions about 
the acquired company, such as whether to dissolve the entity, or to 
relocate or close production or research and development facilities. A 
number of commenters complained that this standard is too nebulous, and 
advocated the adoption of a bright

[[Page 942]]

line control test based on a particular percentage of stock ownership 
and/or the composition of the board of directors. Given the national 
security purposes underlying section 721, the Committee believes it 
would be inappropriate to adopt such bright line tests, which would make 
it relatively easy to structure transactions to circumvent the statute. 
However, the Committee did make certain minor adjustments in the control 
standard to remove unnecessary ambiguity. These changes are discussed 
below in the section-by-section analysis at Secs. 800.204 and 800.211.

                             Foreign Lenders

    At the time the proposed regulations were drafted, the Committee had 
almost no information on how section 721 would affect transactions 
involving foreign lenders. The proposed regulations were therefore 
deliberately vague as to whether foreign lending transactions would be 
covered and, if so, the appropriate time for giving notice--i.e., at the 
time a loan was made, or at the time of default. Since the publication 
of the proposed regulations in July 1989, the Committee has had more 
experience in reviewing lending transactions, in addition to the benefit 
of the public comments. Although the comments were not unanimous on this 
point, most commenters urged that lending transactions not be covered at 
the time a loan is made, in view of the unlikelihood that the loan 
itself will culminate in the foreign lender's acquiring control.
    However, these commenters were nevertheless concerned that foreign 
lenders be given some assurance that the value of their security 
interest would not be affected by CFIUS action. The Committee concluded 
that the acquisition of a security interest, without control, is not 
covered by section 721. Thus, if a lending transaction included, for 
example, contractual or other arrangements that conferred control, the 
transaction would be subject to section 721. However, the Committee 
would not view standard provisions of loan contracts (e.g., ordinary 
covenants of the borrower pertaining to liens, or a lender's right of 
veto over mergers or the sale of property), in and of themselves, to 
confer control over the borrower. (See the discussions below under 
Secs. 800.302 and 800.303 for further elaboration of the treatment of 
foreign lending transactions.)

                      Internal Fast Track Mechanism

    A number of commenters urged the adoption of a fast track procedure 
for reviewing notices under section 721 that clearly do not raise 
serious national security concerns. Because of the very short time frame 
for reviews that already exists (as provided in the statute), and in 
order not to encourage parties to give notice of marginal transactions, 
the Committee decided not to create a formal fast track in the 
regulations. The Committee Staff Chairman is available to discuss 
proposed transactions with parties contemplating notice.

                            Hostile Takeovers

    Fast track treatment of notified transactions involving hostile 
parties was also requested in several of the comments, on the grounds 
that the delay caused by Committee review under section 721 can unfairly 
give a target company time to thwart an unsolicited bid. Although this 
has not been a significant problem to date, the Committee will not 
tolerate attempts to delay or obstruct the review process; the final 
regulations make clear that the parties that did not file the notice 
must file information requested by the Staff Chairman within seven days 
of that request. (See the discussion in the section-by-section analysis 
at 800.402.) If necessary, the Committee can resort to its subpoena 
authority in the Defense Production Act to enforce compliance with 
section 721.

               Remedies for Material Omissions and Errors

    Many of the commenters contended that the absence of any definition 
for ``material'' in Secs. 800.601 (pertaining to material omissions) and 
800.701 (pertaining to material changes) creates uncertainty about the 
finality of any decision by the President not to investigate or take 
other action with respect to a notified transaction. To lessen this 
uncertainty, some commenters suggested that the final regulations 
incorporate a limit on the President's authority to reopen consideration 
of a transaction previously considered under section 721 due to a 
material omission. Others suggested that there be a time limit on the 
Committee's ability to reject a notice on the grounds of material 
change. The Committee did not adopt either of these time limitations. 
The former could potentially reward parties who conceal information or 
fail to take adequate care to bring all material facts about a 
transaction to light in a notice. The latter limitation could prevent 
the Committee from declining to complete its review of a transaction 
that changes radically very late in the 30-day review period, and could 
force an investigation even in a case where it would not otherwise be 
necessary.
    The Committee also did not accept the suggestion made by a few 
commenters that a transaction be reopened only when the Committee can 
show that the parties deliberately withheld material information. If 
information is material to the Committee's or the President's 
deliberation, it is irrelevant to the issue of materiality whether the 
information was intentionally withheld. The Committee has accepted 
suggestions that

[[Page 943]]

greater guidance as to the meaning of ``materiality'' be given in the 
regulations. It is also important to note that parties may at any time 
during the course of a review under section 721 amend the notice to 
apprise the Committee of an omission in the original filing or of a 
change in the transaction since the time the filing was made, and that 
such an amendment will not necessarily affect the Committee's ability to 
complete its review of the transaction within the statutory time 
periods. From the parties' perspective, it is clearly advantageous to 
bring material changes and omissions to light during the course of a 
review, rather than to risk discovery of such matters by the Committee 
at a subsequent time.
    A material change that occurs during the course of review that is 
not brought to the Committee's attention will be subsequently viewed as 
an omission, and may cause the Committee to reopen its consideration of 
a case. The same would be true of a change that occurs after the 
President has announced his decision but was contemplated by the parties 
at the time the transaction was under review and not communicated to the 
Committee. However, recognizing that businesses often change in terms of 
function and structure, the Committee would not consider a material 
change that is both conceived and executed after the President's 
determination as a basis for reopening a case.

                          Committee Procedures

    Commenters made a number of suggestions regarding Committee 
procedures. In some cases, the Committee had already been following the 
recommended procedures, and the final rule makes that explicit. For 
example, in appropriate instances, the Committee has met with parties 
involved in particular transactions in order to obtain further 
clarification or elaboration of the materials presented in the initial 
filing.
    It is worth noting that the Committee follows certain other 
procedures, not spelled out in the final regulations, that help ensure 
the fairness of the review process. For example, the Committee sometimes 
receives unsolicited communications from third parties concerning 
certain transactions. In order to ensure fairness, the Committee 
generally requests the parties to comment on the substance of third 
party communications that the Committee believes may be relevant to its 
full understanding of the notified transaction. Similarly, the Staff 
Chairman handles all communications by the Committee with the parties, 
so as to avoid any confusion resulting from contacts with individual 
Committee members by the parties or third parties.
    A number of the recommendations in the comments about Committee 
procedures would make the review process a highly formalistic, 
adversarial process. This outcome was considered undesirable by the 
Committee, and such recommendations were not accepted. For example, the 
Committee did not adopt the suggestion that the parties be required to 
exchange public versions of their submissions to the Committee, or that 
material be filed only under oath. The Committee believes that giving 
the parties an opportunity to comment, when appropriate, on the 
substance of statements made by each other, as well as by non-
governmental third parties, adequately ensure the integrity of the 
review process.

           Sunset on Presidential Authority Under Section 721

    Another concern expressed in the public comments pertained to the 
fact that the statute places no time limits on the President's authority 
to take action with respect to non-notified transactions. Some 
commenters argued that the absence of a limit on the President's power 
to divest a completed transaction effectively converts section 721 into 
a screening mechanism, since most parties will file notices to eliminate 
the possibility of future divestment. Several commenters suggested 
adoption of a sunset.
    The Committee acknowledges that parties may have to make difficult 
decisions about whether or not to file under section 721, particularly 
when time is a critical factor in closing a deal. However, in the 
Committee's view, it would be inappropriate for the regulations to limit 
the President's authority to protect the national security with respect 
to any given transaction after a particular time. Instead, the 
regulations contain a new provision that limits to three years the time 
during which an agency can give notice with respect to a completed 
transaction. After the three year period, only transactions that appear 
to raise national security concerns can be reviewed and investigated, 
pursuant to a request from the Chairman of the Committee, in 
consultation with other members of the Committee. (See below 
Sec. 800.401.)
    Some commenters evidently fear that a transaction could be reviewed 
several years after it was completed. The Committee notes that 
divestment with respect to a completed but non-notified transaction 
would be limited by the requirement in paragraph (d) of Sec. 800.601 
that it be based on facts, conditions, or circumstances existing at the 
time the transaction was concluded. Parties should also note the 
addition of a new limitation on reviewing completed transactions, which 
has been incorporated at Sec. 800.601(d). Advice in writing by the 
Committee that a notified transaction is not subject to section 721, 
e.g., because the transaction would not result in foreign control of a 
U.S. business, is final and binding with respect to the transaction, as 
long as the information on which that determination is based is accurate 
with respect

[[Page 944]]

to the transaction. However, subsequent changes in the material facts 
pertaining to control, e.g., a proposal by the foreign party to acquire 
additional stock, may result in a situation where notice to the 
Committee could be appropriate.

                        International Obligations

    In discharging its responsibilities under section 721, the Committee 
takes a case-by-case approach. The Conference Report states that section 
721 is not intended to abrogate existing obligations of the United 
States under treaties, including Treaties of Friendship, Commerce and 
Navigation. Conference Report at 927. Those treaties contain national 
treatment provisions under which the United States is obligated to 
extend foreign parties treatment no less favorable than that accorded 
domestic parties, but is permitted to institute measures to protect U.S. 
national security. The Committee intends to implement section 721 and 
the regulations in a manner fully consistent with the international 
obligations of the United States.

              III. Section-by-Section Discussion of Changes

    The Definitions section, subpart B, has been alphabetized.
    Section 800.201. In subsection (a), the definition of acquisition 
has been expanded to include specifically the acquisition of a person by 
a proxy contest undertaken for the purpose of obtaining control. In the 
preamble to the proposed regulations, the Committee requested public 
comments on the desirability of covering proxy contests under the 
regulations. The comments were inconclusive on this point. The Committee 
decided to cover specifically proxy contests undertaken for the purpose 
of obtaining control, such as a contest to change the board of 
directors, because such a contest represents a takeover attempt. Parties 
may give notice at or just prior to the time a proxy solicitation 
commences. However, contests undertaken for any purpose other than to 
obtain control would not be covered by the regulations.
    In subsection (b), qualifying language has been added to the 
provision concerning the acquisition of assets where, in addition to the 
asset acquisition, the acquirer will make substantial use of the 
seller's technology. The qualifier ``excluding technical information 
generally accompanying the sale of equipment'' is intended to convey 
that an acquisition of assets is not covered by section 721 unless the 
technology acquired by the foreign person is separate and apart from 
that inherent in, or typically accompanying the asset, such as 
instruction manuals and operating procedures that would routinely 
accompany equipment.
    Section 800.204. The definition of control in the proposed 
regulations included the ability to ``formulate'' matters or decisions 
affecting an entity. A number of public commenters noted that the 
ability to ``formulate'' in this sense is not a meaningful index of 
control, since technically any shareholder has this right. To alleviate 
any uncertainty on this point, ``formulate'' has been dropped from the 
definition.
    The definition of control has also been modified with the addition 
of subsection (b) to clarify that a U.S. person will not automatically 
be deemed to be foreign-controlled where a number of unrelated foreign 
parties hold an interest in that person. This point would apply even 
when the foreign parties taken as a whole hold the majority of stock in 
a U.S. company. The Committee would have to determine in such a case, as 
it would in any notified transaction, whether any single foreign party, 
acting on its own or in concert with another party (e.g., through 
contractual arrangements), could control the U.S. person.
    Section 800.213. A minor change to the wording of the definition of 
foreign person has been made to emphasize that there must be the present 
potential for control by a foreign interest, rather than a mere remote 
possibility, for an entity to be considered a foreign person under 
section 721. Whereas the regulation previously read ``an entity over 
which control is or could be exercised by a foreign interest,'' the 
underlined phrase has been replaced by ``exercised or exercisable'' to 
alleviate vagueness or remoteness in the standard. Thus, only the 
present potential for control (regardless of whether the foreign 
interest actually exercises it) matters for purposes of this section.
    Section 800.216. The proposed regulations left unresolved the issue 
of who are the parties to an acquisition in the case of a proxy 
solicitation. In light of the Committee's decision to cover proxy 
solicitations undertaken for the purpose of obtaining control just prior 
to and at the time the solicitation is made, the final regulations make 
both the persons soliciting proxies as well as the person who issued the 
voting securities parties to the acquisition.
    Section 800.219. To make this section consistent with the modified 
definition of control, the word formulation has been deleted from the 
definition of ``solely for the purpose of investment.'' (See 
Sec. 800.204 above.) With respect to Sec. 800.302(d) (which should be 
consulted), a party that has no intention of determining or directing 
the basic business decisions of the issuer, and who does not possess or 
develop any purpose other than investment, or take any action 
inconsistent with that purpose, would be deemed to hold securities 
solely for the purpose of investment.
    Section 800.222. This section defines U.S. person as any entity 
``but only to the extent of its business activities in interstate 
commerce in the United States, irrespective of

[[Page 945]]

the nationality of the individuals or entities which control it.'' To 
underscore the significance of that qualifier to the definition, a third 
example has been added to this section. The example describes the 
acquisition by a foreign person of a foreign subsidiary of a U.S. 
corporation. In the facts presented by the example, the foreign 
subsidiary has no fixed place of business in the United States, but 
merely exports goods to the U.S. parent and to unaffiliated companies in 
the United States. The acquisition of such an entity by a foreign person 
would not constitute the acquisition of a U.S. person under section 721 
because the mere export of goods to the United States by a foreign 
subsidiary with no fixed place of business in this country does not 
constitute ``business activity in interstate commerce in the United 
States'' for purposes of the section.
    Section 800.301. A few points pertaining to joint venture 
transactions have been clarified in this section. First, a joint venture 
transaction is subject to section 721 only if an existing, identifiable 
business in the United States is contributed to the venture. A joint 
venture transaction in which the U.S. contribution is a company founded 
for the purposes of the transaction would not be subject to section 721. 
Moreover, even where an identifiable business has been contributed to 
the venture, the transaction is not subject to section 721 unless the 
foreign party would control the venture. Therefore, joint venture 
transactions in which control is equally shared by the U.S. partner and 
the foreign partner, i.e., where each party has a veto power over all 
the decisions of the joint venture, would not be subject to section 721. 
It is important to note, however, that this rule does not apply to other 
forms of business organization, such as when a foreign person acquires 
50 percent of the stock of an existing U.S. company. In such cases, the 
Committee may, depending on the other facts surrounding the transaction, 
conclude that the stock acquisition confers control on the foreign 
person.
    Section 800.302. Subsection (i) has been added to Sec. 800.302 as a 
corollary to section 301(b)(1), which provides that proposed or 
completed acquisitions by or with foreign persons which could or do 
result in foreign control of a U.S. person would be subject to section 
721. Subsection (i) of Sec. 800.302 provides that an acquisition (1) 
that does not involve the acquisition of control of (2) a person engaged 
in interstate commerce in the United States (i.e., a U.S. person) would 
not be subject to section 721. Two examples are provided to illustrate 
the two components of this provision. First, with respect to the 
acquisition of control, when a foreign person acquires an interest, such 
as stock, in a U.S. person, but that interest is insufficient to confer 
control, the acquisition is not subject to section 721. The Committee's 
options for handling a notice of such a transaction are set out in 
Sec. 800.403 of the regulations.
    Second, with respect to the component pertaining to being engaged in 
interstate commerce in the United States, Example 2 is intended to 
illustrate that the acquisition of a business that is essentially a non-
operational shell--i.e., having no employees, plants, equipment, or 
subsidiaries in the United States--would not satisfy this component and 
would therefore not be an acquisition subject to section 721.
    Section 800.303. This section has been added to the regulations to 
clarify the Committee's treatment of lending transactions. As explained 
under Sec. 800.302 above, the acquisition of a security interest by a 
foreign lender in a lending transaction does not, without control, 
subject a transaction to section 721. Section 800.303 provides that the 
Committee will not accept notices of such transactions. However, the 
Committee will accept notice of such transactions where, because of 
actual or imminent default or other condition, the foreign lender is 
likely to obtain control of the U.S. person. In general, the Committee 
will accept the parties' view of the imminence of default, recognizing 
that in some cases waiting too long before filing notice could affect 
the lender's recourse to certain remedies, or the willingness of the 
borrower to cooperate fully in the preparation of a filing.
    Some commenters argued that if the Committee does not accept notices 
of lending transactions until actual or imminent default, the lender 
will never have adequate assurance of the value of its security 
interest, which may eventually discourage foreign lenders from entering 
into financing transactions that may be subject to section 721. Some 
argued that the acquisition of stock or assets as a result of a default 
should be exempt from section 721, because it is essentially similar to 
an acquisition pursuant to an insurance contract made in the ordinary 
course of business, which is exempt under Sec. 800.302(g). The Committee 
does not find it appropriate to exempt the acquisition of a U.S. person 
that results from a borrower's default. However, to help alleviate the 
lenders' concerns in such circumstances, the Committee will take into 
account steps the lender takes to transfer day-to-day control over the 
U.S. person to U.S. nationals, pending final sale of the U.S. person. 
For example, in appropriate cases, the Committee could determine that 
the lender does not control a company acquired through default when it 
appoints a trustee to run the company and commits to sell it within a 
specified reasonable period of time.
    Section 800.303 also contains a special provision--subsection (b)--
for foreign banks participating in loan syndications. In view of the 
limitations on control of the borrower by any one bank that are often 
inherent in the

[[Page 946]]

structure of a syndicate of banks in a loan participation, the Committee 
will deem any foreign lender in a syndicate not to have control for 
purposes of section 721 where such lender needs the consent of the 
majority of the U.S. participants to take action, or does not have a 
lead role in the syndicate and is subject to a special provision 
limiting its influence, ownership or control over the borrower.
    Section 800.401. This section contains a new provision with respect 
to non-notified transactions. No agency notice can be made with respect 
to such a transaction more than three years after the date it was 
concluded unless the Chairman of the Committee, in consultation with 
other members of the Committee, requests an investigation. This 
provision was added to assuage public concern that non-notified 
transactions are indefinitely subject to divestment by the President. 
The President's powers under section 721 are not affected by this 
provision.
    Section 800.402. Until now, the Committee has been willing to accept 
notices of transactions from just one of the parties to a transaction, 
recognizing that in some cases one of the parties alone will be able to 
provide answers and materials responsive to the questions posed in 
Sec. 800.402. Although the Committee will continue to accept joint 
notices prepared by just one party to a transaction that give 
information with respect to all the parties, the final regulations 
require all the parties to sign such a filing, thereby indicating to the 
Committee that each party is satisfied that the information in the 
filing pertaining to it is accurate and complete.
    With respect to filings submitted by a party independently of the 
other parties, several points are worth noting. First, a minor wording 
change has been made in paragraph (1) of subsection (b) of this section 
for purposes of clarity: ``Such information'' has been replaced by ``the 
information set out in this section.'' Although the phrase in that 
paragraph, ``to the extent known or reasonably available to it,'' 
remains unchanged from the proposed regulations, it merits discussion 
here in order to remove any uncertainty. When a party giving notice is 
unable to answer fully a question pertaining to the other party, it is 
not excused by the words ``to the extent known or reasonably available 
to it'' from submitting a complete and accurate filing, as has evidently 
been assumed by some parties. The Committee expects that in such a case 
either the party giving notice will obtain the assistance of the other 
party or parties, or that the latter independently will make a filing to 
the Committee, supplying the relevant information.
    In any case, the Committee will delay beginning the initial thirty-
day review period until the filing is complete with respect to both 
parties. Subsection (b) makes clear that the Staff Chairman of the 
Committee, when necessary, will contact directly the party or parties 
that did not file the notice and request that information responsive to 
Sec. 800.402 be filed within seven days of receipt of the request.
    A new provision has been added to subsection (c), requesting parties 
to submit a summary of the transaction. The Committee requests that the 
party(ies) that give notice be as clear and concise as possible. A 
readily understandable summary will expedite the Committee's work.
    Paragraph (3) of subsection (c) has also been modified to lengthen 
the period of time from three to five years for which contracts 
involving classified information should be described in a filing. As for 
contracts with the Department of Defense or any other agency of the U.S. 
Government with national defense responsibilities (such as the 
Department of Energy or the Nuclear Regulatory Commission), which 
contracts do not involve classified information, parties should continue 
to provide information for the past three years only.
    Section 800.403. This new section sets out the Committee's options 
for handling certain voluntary notices; most of these points have been 
addressed in the preceding discussion. The Committee will delay 
acceptance of a notice that does not comply with Sec. 800.402. It 
reserves the right to reject a voluntary notice at any time before 
action by the Committee or the President has been concluded, if there 
has been a material change in the notified transaction.
    As provided in Sec. 800.403(a)(4), the Committee will also inform 
the party submitting a voluntary notice if it decides not to undertake a 
substantive review of a transaction because it has determined that the 
notified transaction is not subject to section 721. For example, where 
the Committee determines that a notified transaction will not result in 
foreign control, the Committee would inform the parties of the nature of 
its determination, (e.g., no foreign control) and advise them to 
consider filing at a later date should an acquisition of control be 
contemplated.
    Section 800.404. A technical wording change has been made to this 
section (which was numbered Sec. 800.403 under the proposed 
regulations). The words ``has been accepted'' in the first sentence of 
that section replace ``is received'' to underscore that the 30-day 
review period does not begin until the Chair has determined that the 
voluntary notice complies with the requirements of Sec. 800.402. Further 
technical changes were made to subsection (a) to reflect changes made in 
Sec. 800.401 concerning agency notice.
    Section 800.501. Subsection (b) has been added to this section to 
make explicit a practice the Committee has been following since it began 
receiving notices under section 721, i.e., inviting the parties to 
certain

[[Page 947]]

notified transactions to meet with the Committee. The Staff Chairman, at 
his discretion, may invite the parties to a meeting to clarify certain 
issues with respect to the filing; such a meeting may occur either 
during the 30-day review period or during the investigation. When the 
parties involved in investigations request a meeting with the Committee, 
the request is ordinarily granted.
    Section 800.601. A number of commenters expressed concern that the 
finality of Committee or Presidential action under section 721 is called 
into question if there is a right to reopen consideration of a case on 
the basis of material omissions or material misstatements. This section 
has been expanded in an attempt to allay some of those concerns. 
Subsection (f) has been added to clarify the matters the Committee 
considers ``material'': These are confined to information requested by 
Sec. 800.402 of the regulations; information requested by the Committee 
during the course of an initial review, an investigation, or the 
Presidential determination period; or information provided by the 
party(ies) sua sponte. However, the Committee will generally not find 
information to be ``material'' if it concerns purely commercial matters 
having no bearing on national security, such as the price of stock.

      Appendix B to Part 800--Preamble to Regulations on Mergers, 
 Acquisitions, and Takeovers by Foreign Persons (Published May 25, 1994)

    Note: For the convenience of the reader, this appendix contains the 
text of the preamble to the final rules amending the regulations on 
mergers, acquisitions, and takeovers by foreign persons beginning at the 
heading ``Discussion of the Final Rule'' and ending before ``List of 
Subjects in 31 CFR Part 800'' (59 FR 27178, May 25, 1994).

                      Discussion of the Final Rule

    Section 837(a) of the Defense Authorization Act creates for the 
first time a mandatory investigation provision under Exon-Florio. There 
are three points worth noting about this provision. First, this 
provision is limited in application to certain types of acquisitions. 
Specifically, the acquirer in question must be a foreign government 
controlled entity, or an entity acting on behalf of a foreign 
government. Furthermore, the acquisition must be one which ``could 
result in control of a person engaged in interstate commerce in the 
United States that could affect the national security of the United 
States'' (emphasis added). Thus, even where the other specified criteria 
are met, this provision does not mandate an investigation for cases that 
could not ``affect the national security of the United States.''
    Second, for purposes of determining whether the acquisition results 
in foreign government control, CFIUS is applying the same functional 
test for control as provided in Sec. 800.204.
    Third, in contrast to the criterion for Presidential action under 
Exon-Florio, i.e., that the foreign party acquiring control might take 
action that ``threatens to impair the national security,'' the criterion 
for undertaking an investigation of transactions involving government 
controlled entities is that there could be an effect on the national 
security.
    The term ``foreign government'' has been broadly defined for 
purposes of these regulations to include any government or body 
exercising governmental functions, and includes but is not limited to 
national as well as various regional and local levels of government. It 
is important to note that the definition is not limited to the 
particular levels of government that are specified in the regulation, 
and that other governmental bodies, including supra-national entities 
such as the European Union (including its component parts), are covered 
by this regulation.
    For purposes of the mandatory investigation provision, the 
regulations define the term ``engage in'' as used in the phrase ``seeks 
to engage in any merger, acquisition or takeover * * *'' to mean ``seeks 
to acquire control through.'' The purpose of this regulation is to 
clarify that the mandatory investigation provision would not be 
triggered in cases where a foreign government controlled entity's 
participation in an acquisition is solely for the purpose of investment, 
as defined in Sec. 800.217 of the regulations. The Committee believes 
that this reading is supported by the legislative history, and 
particularly floor statements made by members of Congress who sponsored 
this particular amendment. See, e.g., Cong. Rec., Sept. 18, 1992, pages 
S 14050 through 14053 (comments of Senators Exon, Sarbanes and Riegle); 
and Cong. Rec. Oct. 3, 1992, page H 10986 (comments of Representative 
Collins). Subparagraph 800.402(c)(5)(iii) has been changed in the final 
regulations by the addition of the words ``for example'' to clarify that 
an agency or representative role are examples of ways in which a foreign 
person can act on behalf of a foreign government, but are not the

[[Page 948]]

only ways in which such a relationship could be conducted.
