§2149. Receipts from interests in juridical persons

            A. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, a trustee shall allocate to income money received on account of an interest in a juridical person.

            B. A trustee shall allocate to principal the following distributions received on account of a trustee's interest in a juridical person:

            (1) Property other than money.

            (2) Money received in one distribution or a series of related distributions in exchange for part or all of a trustee's interest in the juridical person.

            (3) Money received in total or partial liquidation of the juridical person.

            (4) Money received from a regulated investment company or a real estate investment trust if the money distributed is a capital gain dividend for federal income tax purposes.

            C. Money is received in partial liquidation to the extent that the juridical person, at or near the time of a distribution, indicates that it is a distribution in partial liquidation. A partial liquidation also occurs if the total amount of money and property received in a distribution or series of related distributions is greater than twenty percent of the juridical person's gross assets, as shown by the juridical person's year-end financial statements immediately preceding the initial receipt.

            D. Money is not received in partial liquidation, nor may it be taken into account under Subsection C of this Section, to the extent that it does not exceed the amount of income tax that a trustee or beneficiary must pay on taxable income of the juridical person that distributes the money.

            E. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, if the receipt is one to which a more specific provision of this Subpart applies, a trustee may allocate the receipt based upon the source or character of the receipt and may rely upon a statement made by the juridical person regarding the source or character of the receipt.
