Statute

    Sec. 512. Unrelated business taxable income
 
    (a) Definition
      For purposes of this title -
      (1) General rule
        Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, the term
      ''unrelated business taxable income'' means the gross income
      derived by any organization from any unrelated trade or business
      (as defined in section 513) regularly carried on by it, less the
      deductions allowed by this chapter which are directly connected
      with the carrying on of such trade or business, both computed
      with the modifications provided in subsection (b).
      (2) Special rule for foreign organizations
        In the case of an organization described in section 511 which
      is a foreign organization, the unrelated business taxable income
      shall be -
          (A) its unrelated business taxable income which is derived
        from sources within the United States and which is not
        effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business
        within the United States, plus
          (B) its unrelated business taxable income which is
        effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business
        within the United States.
      (3) Special rules applicable to organizations described in
          paragraph (7), (9), (17), or (20) of section 501(c)
        (A) General rule
          In the case of an organization described in paragraph (7),
        (9), (17), or (20) of section 501(c), the term ''unrelated
        business taxable income'' means the gross income (excluding any
        exempt function income), less the deductions allowed by this
        chapter which are directly connected with the production of the
        gross income (excluding exempt function income), both computed
        with the modifications provided in paragraphs (6), (10), (11),
        and (12) of subsection (b). For purposes of the preceding
        sentence, the deductions provided by sections 243, 244, and 245
        (relating to dividends received by corporations) shall be
        treated as not directly connected with the production of gross
        income.
        (B) Exempt function income
          For purposes of subparagraph (A), the term ''exempt function
        income'' means the gross income from dues, fees, charges, or
        similar amounts paid by members of the organization as
        consideration for providing such members or their dependents or
        guests goods, facilities, or services in furtherance of the
        purposes constituting the basis for the exemption of the
        organization to which such income is paid.  Such term also
        means all income (other than an amount equal to the gross
        income derived from any unrelated trade or business regularly
        carried on by such organization computed as if the organization
        were subject to paragraph (1)), which is set aside -
            (i) for a purpose specified in section 170(c)(4), or
            (ii) in the case of an organization described in paragraph
          (9), (17), or (20) of section 501(c), to provide for the
          payment of life, sick, accident, or other benefits,
        including reasonable costs of administration directly connected
        with a purpose described in clause (i) or (ii). If during the
        taxable year, an amount which is attributable to income so set
        aside is used for a purpose other than that described in clause
        (i) or (ii), such amount shall be included, under subparagraph
        (A), in unrelated business taxable income for the taxable year.
        (C) Applicability to certain corporations described in section
            501(c)(2)
          In the case of a corporation described in section 501(c)(2),
        the income of which is payable to an organization described in
        paragraph (7), (9), (17), or (20) of section 501(c),
        subparagraph (A) shall apply as if such corporation were the
        organization to which the income is payable.  For purposes of
        the preceding sentence, such corporation shall be treated as
        having exempt function income for a taxable year only if it
        files a consolidated return with such organization for such
        year.
        (D) Nonrecognition of gain
          If property used directly in the performance of the exempt
        function of an organization described in paragraph (7), (9),
        (17), or (20) of section 501(c) is sold by such organization,
        and within a period beginning 1 year before the date of such
        sale, and ending 3 years after such date, other property is
        purchased and used by such organization directly in the
        performance of its exempt function, gain (if any) from such
        sale shall be recognized only to the extent that such
        organization's sales price of the old property exceeds the
        organization's cost of purchasing the other property.  For
        purposes of this subparagraph, the destruction in whole or in
        part, theft, seizure, requisition, or condemnation of property,
        shall be treated as the sale of such property, and rules
        similar to the rules provided by subsections (b), (c), (e), and
        (j) of section 1034 (as in effect on the day before the date of
        the enactment of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997) shall apply.
        (E) Limitation on amount of setaside in the case of
            organizations described in paragraph (9), (17), or (20) of
            section 501(c)
          (i) In general
            In the case of any organization described in paragraph (9),
          (17), or (20) of section 501(c), a set-aside for any purpose
          specified in clause (ii) of subparagraph (B) may be taken
          into account under subparagraph (B) only to the extent that
          such set-aside does not result in an amount of assets set
          aside for such purpose in excess of the account limit
          determined under section 419A (without regard to subsection
          (f)(6) thereof) for the taxable year (not taking into account
          any reserve described in section 419A(c)(2)(A) for
          post-retirement medical benefits).
          (ii) Treatment of existing reserves for post-retirement
              medical or life insurance benefits
              (I) Clause (i) shall not apply to any income attributable
            to an existing reserve for post-retirement medical or life
            insurance benefits.
              (II) For purposes of subclause (I), the term ''reserve
            for post-retirement medical or life insurance benefits''
            means the greater of the amount of assets set aside for
            purposes of post-retirement medical or life insurance
            benefits to be provided to covered employees as of the
            close of the last plan year ending before the date of the
            enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1984 or on July 18,
            1984.
              (III) All payments during plan years ending on or after
            the date of the enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1984 of
            post-retirement medical benefits or life insurance benefits
            shall be charged against the reserve referred to in
            subclause (II). Except to the extent provided in
            regulations prescribed by the Secretary, all plans of an
            employer shall be treated as 1 plan for purposes of the
            preceding sentence.
          (iii) Treatment of tax exempt organizations
            This subparagraph shall not apply to any organization if
          substantially all of the contributions to such organization
          are made by employers who were exempt from tax under this
          chapter throughout the 5-taxable year period ending with the
          taxable year in which the contributions are made.
      (4) Special rule applicable to organizations described in section
          501(c)(19)
        In the case of an organization described in section 501(c)(19),
      the term ''unrelated business taxable income'' does not include
      any amount attributable to payments for life, sick, accident, or
      health insurance with respect to members of such organizations or
      their dependents which is set aside for the purpose of providing
      for the payment of insurance benefits or for a purpose specified
      in section 170(c)(4). If an amount set aside under the preceding
      sentence is used during the taxable year for a purpose other than
      a purpose described in the preceding sentence, such amount shall
      be included, under paragraph (1), in unrelated business taxable
      income for the taxable year.
      (5) Definition of payments with respect to securities loans
          (A) The term ''payments with respect to securities loans''
        includes all amounts received in respect of a security (as
        defined in section 1236(c)) transferred by the owner to another
        person in a transaction to which section 1058 applies (whether
        or not title to the security remains in the name of the lender)
        including -
            (i) amounts in respect of dividends, interest, or other
          distributions,
            (ii) fees computed by reference to the period beginning
          with the transfer of securities by the owner and ending with
          the transfer of identical securities back to the transferor
          by the transferee and the fair market value of the security
          during such period,
            (iii) income from collateral security for such loan, and
            (iv) income from the investment of collateral security.
          (B) Subparagraph (A) shall apply only with respect to
        securities transferred pursuant to an agreement between the
        transferor and the transferee which provides for -
            (i) reasonable procedures to implement the obligation of
          the transferee to furnish to the transferor, for each
          business day during such period, collateral with a fair
          market value not less than the fair market value of the
          security at the close of business on the preceding business
          day,
            (ii) termination of the loan by the transferor upon notice
          of not more than 5 business days, and
            (iii) return to the transferor of securities identical to
          the transferred securities upon termination of the loan.
    (b) Modifications
      The modifications referred to in subsection (a) are the
    following:
        (1) There shall be excluded all dividends, interest, payments
      with respect to securities loans (as defined in subsection

      deductions directly connected with such income.
        (2) There shall be excluded all royalties (including overriding
      royalties) whether measured by production or by gross or taxable

            (ii) all rents from personal property (including for
          purposes of this paragraph as personal property any property
          described in section 1245(a)(3)(B)) leased with such real
          property, if the rents attributable to such personal property
          are an incidental amount of the total rents received or
          accrued under the lease, determined at the time the personal
          property is placed in service.
          (B) Subparagraph (A) shall not apply -
            (i) if more than 50 percent of the total rent received or
          accrued under the lease is attributable to personal property
          described in subparagraph (A)(ii), or
            (ii) if the determination of the amount of such rent
          depends in whole or in part on the income or profits derived
          by any person from the property leased (other than an amount
          based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or
          sales).
          (C) There shall be excluded all deductions directly connected
        with rents excluded under subparagraph (A).
        (4) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), (2), (3), or (5), in the

      unrelated trade or business, the amount ascertained under section
      514(a)(1), and there shall be allowed, as a deduction, the amount
      ascertained under section 514(a)(2).
        (5) There shall be excluded all gains or losses from the sale,
      exchange, or other disposition of property other than -
          (A) stock in trade or other property of a kind which would
        properly be includible in inventory if on hand at the close of
        the taxable year, or
          (B) property held primarily for sale to customers in the
        ordinary course of the trade or business.

      apply with respect to the cutting of timber which is considered,
      on the application of section 631, as a sale or exchange of such
      timber.
        (6) The net operating loss deduction provided in section 172
      shall be allowed, except that -
          (A) the net operating loss for any taxable year, the amount
        of the net operating loss carryback or carryover to any taxable
        year, and the net operating loss deduction for any taxable year
        shall be determined under section 172 without taking into
        account any amount of income or deduction which is excluded
        under this part in computing the unrelated business taxable
        income; and
          (B) the terms ''preceding taxable year'' and ''preceding
        taxable years'' as used in section 172 shall not include any

        provisions of this part.
        (7) There shall be excluded all income derived from research
      for (A) the United States, or any of its agencies or

        (9) In the case of an organization operated primarily for
      purposes of carrying on fundamental research the results of which
      are freely available to the general public, there shall be
      excluded all income derived from research performed for any
      person, and all deductions directly connected with such income.
        (10) In the case of any organization described in section
      511(a), the deduction allowed by section 170 (relating to
      charitable etc. contributions and gifts) shall be allowed
      (whether or not directly connected with the carrying on of the
      trade or business), but shall not exceed 10 percent of the
      unrelated business taxable income computed without the benefit of
      this paragraph.
        (11) In the case of any trust described in section 511(b), the
      deduction allowed by section 170 (relating to charitable etc.
      contributions and gifts) shall be allowed (whether or not
      directly connected with the carrying on of the trade or
      business), and for such purpose a distribution made by the trust
      to a beneficiary described in section 170 shall be considered as
      a gift or contribution.  The deduction allowed by this paragraph
      shall be allowed with the limitations prescribed in section
      170(b)(1)(A) and (B) determined with reference to the unrelated
      business taxable income computed without the benefit of this
      paragraph (in lieu of with reference to adjusted gross income).
        (12) Except for purposes of computing the net operating loss
      under section 172 and paragraph (6), there shall be allowed a
      specific deduction of $1,000. In the case of a diocese, province
      of a religious order, or a convention or association of churches,
      there shall also be allowed, with respect to each parish,
      individual church, district, or other local unit, a specific
      deduction equal to the lower of -
          (A) $1,000, or
          (B) the gross income derived from any unrelated trade or
        business regularly carried on by such local unit.
        (13) Special rules for certain amounts received from controlled
      entities. -
          (A) In general. - If an organization (in this paragraph
        referred to as the ''controlling organization'') receives or
        accrues (directly or indirectly) a specified payment from
        another entity which it controls (in this paragraph referred to
        as the ''controlled entity''), notwithstanding paragraphs (1),
        (2), and (3), the controlling organization shall include such
        payment as an item of gross income derived from an unrelated
        trade or business to the extent such payment reduces the net
        unrelated income of the controlled entity (or increases any net
        unrelated loss of the controlled entity).  There shall be
        allowed all deductions of the controlling organization directly
        connected with amounts treated as derived from an unrelated
        trade or business under the preceding sentence.
          (B) Net unrelated income or loss. - For purposes of this
        paragraph -
            (i) Net unrelated income. - The term ''net unrelated
          income'' means -
              (I) in the case of a controlled entity which is not
            exempt from tax under section 501(a), the portion of such
            entity's taxable income which would be unrelated business
            taxable income if such entity were exempt from tax under
            section 501(a) and had the same exempt purposes as the
            controlling organization, or
              (II) in the case of a controlled entity which is exempt
            from tax under section 501(a), the amount of the unrelated
            business taxable income of the controlled entity.
            (ii) Net unrelated loss. - The term ''net unrelated loss''
          means the net operating loss adjusted under rules similar to
          the rules of clause (i).
          (C) Specified payment. - For purposes of this paragraph, the
        term ''specified payment'' means any interest, annuity,
        royalty, or rent.
          (D) Definition of control. - For purposes of this paragraph -
            (i) Control. - The term ''control'' means -
              (I) in the case of a corporation, ownership (by vote or
            value) of more than 50 percent of the stock in such
            corporation,
              (II) in the case of a partnership, ownership of more than
            50 percent of the profits interests or capital interests in
            such partnership, or
              (III) in any other case, ownership of more than 50
            percent of the beneficial interests in the entity.
            (ii) Constructive ownership. - Section 318 (relating to
          constructive ownership of stock) shall apply for purposes of
          determining ownership of stock in a corporation.  Similar
          principles shall apply for purposes of determining ownership
          of interests in any other entity.
          (E) Paragraph to apply only to certain excess payments.--
                          (i) <<NOTE: Applicability.>> In general.--
                      Subparagraph (A) shall apply only to the portion 
                      of a qualifying specified payment received or 
                      accrued by the controlling organization that 
                      exceeds the amount which would have been paid or 
                      accrued if such payment met the requirements 
                      prescribed under section 482.
                          (ii) Addition to tax for valuation 
                      misstatements.--The tax imposed by this chapter on 
                      the controlling organization shall be increased by 
                      an amount equal to 20 percent of the larger of--
                                    (I) such excess determined without 
                                regard to any amendment or supplement to 
                                a return of tax, or
                                    (II) such excess determined with 
                                regard to all such amendments and 
                                supplements.
                          (iii) Qualifying specified payment.--The 
                      term `qualifying specified payment' means a 
                      specified payment which is made pursuant to--
                                    (I) a binding written contract in 
                                effect on the date of the enactment of 
                                this subparagraph, or
                                    (II) a contract which is a 
                                renewal, under substantially similar

        included in gross income under section 951(a)(1)(A) shall be
        included as an item of gross income derived from an unrelated
        trade or business to the extent the amount so included is
        attributable to insurance income (as defined in section 953)
        which, if derived directly by the organization, would be
        treated as gross income from an unrelated trade or business.

          (B) Exception. -

                      person a qualifying brownfield property, 
                      and

                      such property in an amount which exceeds 
                      the greater of $550,000 or 12 percent of 
                      the fair market value of the property at 
                      the time such property was acquired by 
                      the eligible taxpayer, determined as if 
                      there was not a presence of a hazardous 
                      substance, pollutant, or contaminant on 
                      the property which is complicating the 
                      expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of 
                      the property.
                (ii) Exception.--Such term shall not include 
                      any organization which is--
                    (I) potentially liable under 
                      section 107 of the Comprehensive 
                      Environmental Response, Compensation, 
                      and Liability Act of 1980 with respect 
                      to the qualifying brownfield property,
                    (II) affiliated with any other 
                      person which is so potentially liable 
                      through any direct or indirect familial 
                      relationship or any contractual, 
                      corporate, or financial relationship 
                     (other than a contractual, corporate, or 
                      financial relationship which is created 
                      by the instruments by which title to any 
                      qualifying brownfield property is 
                      conveyed or financed or by a contract of

            (C) Qualifying brownfield property.--For purposes 
                of this paragraph--
                 (i) In general.--The term `qualifying 
                    brownfield property' means any real property which 
                    is certified, before the taxpayer incurs any 
                    eligible remediation
                     expenditures (other than to obtain a Phase I 
                     environmental site assessment), by an appropriate 
                     State agency (within the meaning of section 
                     198(c)(4)) in the State in which such property is 
                     located as a brownfield site within the meaning of 
                     section 101(39) of the Comprehensive Environmental 
                     Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 
                     (as in effect on the date of the enactment of this 
                     paragraph).
                (ii) Request for certification.--Any request 
                     by an eligible taxpayer for a certification 
                     described in clause (i) shall include a sworn 
                     statement by the eligible taxpayer and supporting 
                     documentation of the presence of a hazardous 
                     substance, pollutant, or contaminant on the 
                     property which is complicating the expansion, 
                     redevelopment, or reuse of the property given the 
                     property's reasonably anticipated future land uses 
                     or capacity for uses of the property (including a 
                     Phase I environmental site assessment and, if 
                     applicable, evidence of the property's presence on 
                     a local, State, or Federal list of brownfields or 
                     contaminated property) and other environmental 
                     assessments prepared or obtained by the taxpayer.
            (D) Qualified sale, exchange, or other 
                disposition.--For purposes of this paragraph--
                 (i) In general.--A sale, exchange, or other 
                     disposition of property shall be considered as 
                     qualified if--
                      (I) such property is transferred 
                       by the eligible taxpayer to an unrelated 
                       person, and
                      (II) within 1 year of such 
                       transfer the eligible taxpayer has 
                       received a certification from the 
                       Environmental Protection Agency or an 
                       appropriate State agency (within the 
                       meaning of section 198(c)(4)) in the 
                       State in which such property is located 
                       that, as a result of the eligible 
                       taxpayer's remediation actions, such 
                       property would not be treated as a 
                       qualifying brownfield property in the 
                       hands of the transferee.
                 For purposes of subclause (II), before issuing 
                 such certification, the Environmental Protection 
                 Agency or appropriate State agency shall respond 
                 to comments received pursuant to clause (ii)(V) in 
                 the same form and manner as required under section 
                 117(b) of the Comprehensive Environmental 
                 Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 
                (as in effect on the date of the enactment of this 
                 paragraph).
               (ii) Request 
                  for <<NOTE: Deadline.>> certification.--Any 
                 request by an eligible taxpayer for a 
                 certification described in clause (i) shall be 
                 made not later than the date of the transfer and 
                 shall include a sworn statement by the eligible 
                 taxpayer certifying the following:
                  (I) Remedial actions which comply 
                   with all applicable or relevant and 
                   appropriate requirements (consistent 
                   with section 121(d) of the Comprehensive 
                   Environmental Response, Compensation, 
                   and Liability Act of 1980) have been 
                   substantially completed, such that there 
                  are no hazardous  substances, pollutants,
                   or contaminants which complicate the expansion,
                    redevelopment, or reuse of the               
                  
                   property given the property's reasonably 
                   anticipated future land uses or capacity 
                   for uses of the property.
                 (II) The reasonably anticipated 
                   future land uses or capacity for uses of 
                   the property are more economically 
                   productive or environmentally beneficial 
                   than the uses of the property in 
                   existence on the date of the 
                   certification described in subparagraph 
                   (C)(i). For purposes of the preceding 
                   sentence, use of property as a landfill 
                   or other hazardous waste facility shall 
                   not be considered more economically 
                   productive or environmentally 
                   beneficial.
                (III) A remediation plan has been 
                   implemented to bring the property into 
                   compliance with all applicable local, 
                   State, and Federal environmental laws, 
                   regulations, and standards and to ensure 
                   that the remediation protects human 
                   health and the environment.
                (IV) The remediation plan 
                   described in subclause (III), including 
                   any physical improvements required to 
                   remediate the property, is either 
                   complete or substantially complete, and, 
                   if substantially complete, sufficient 
                   monitoring, funding, institutional 
                   controls, and financial assurances have 
                   been put in place to ensure the complete 
                   remediation of the property in 
                   accordance with the remediation plan as 
                   soon as is reasonably practicable after 
                   the sale, exchange, or other disposition 
                   of such property.
                (V) Public notice <<NOTE: Notice.>> and the 
                   opportunity for comment on the request 
                   for certification was completed before 
                   the date of such request. Such notice 
                   and opportunity for comment shall be in 
                   the same form and manner as required for 
                   public participation required under 
                   section 117(a) of the Comprehensive 
                   Environmental Response, Compensation, 
                   and Liability Act of 1980 (as in effect 
                   on the date of the enactment of this 
                   paragraph). For purposes of this 
                   subclause, public notice shall include, 
                   at a minimum, publication in a major 
                   local newspaper of general circulation.
               (iii) Attachment to tax returns.--A copy of 
                    each of the requests for certification described 
                    in clause (ii) of subparagraph (C) and this 
                    subparagraph shall be included in the tax return 
                    of the eligible taxpayer (and, where applicable, 
                    of the qualifying partnership) for the taxable 
                    year during which the transfer occurs.
               (iv) Substantial completion.--For purposes 
                    of this subparagraph, a remedial action is 
                    substantially complete when any necessary physical 
                    construction is complete, all immediate threats 
                    have been eliminated, and all long-term threats 
                    are under control.
             (E) Eligible remediation expenditures.--For 
                purposes of this paragraph--
                (i) In general.--The term `eligible 
                    remediation expenditures' means, with respect to 
                    any qualifying brownfield property, any amount 
                    paid or incurred by the eligible taxpayer to an

                    environmental site assessment of the property, and 
                    any amount so paid or incurred after the date of 
                    the certification described in subparagraph (C)(i) 
                    for goods and services necessary to obtain a 
                    certification described in subparagraph (D)(i) 
                    with respect to such property, including 
                    expenditures--
                     (I) to manage, remove, control, 
                        contain, abate, or otherwise remediate a 
                        hazardous substance, pollutant, or

                        monitor, sample, study, assess, or 
                        otherwise evaluate the release, threat 
                        of release, or presence of a hazardous 
                        substance, pollutant, or contaminant on

                        monitoring of the hazardous substance, 
                        pollutant, or contaminant on the 
                        property, and
                    (IV) regardless of whether it is 
                        necessary to obtain a certification 
                        described in subparagraph (D)(i)(II), to

                        financial guarantees required to manage 
                        such remediation and monitoring.
                 (ii) Exceptions.--Such term shall not 
                      include--
                     (I) any portion of the purchase 
                        price paid or incurred by the eligible 
                        taxpayer to acquire the qualifying 
                        brownfield property,
                     (II) environmental insurance costs

                         grants provided by the United States, a 
                         State, or a political subdivision of a 
                         State for use in connection with the 
                         property, proceeds of an issue of State 
                         or local government obligations used to 
                         provide financing for the property the 
                         interest of which is exempt from tax 
                         under section 103, or subsidized 
                         financing provided (directly or 
                         indirectly) under a Federal, State, or 
                         local program provided in connection 
                         with the property, or
                     (IV) any expenditure paid or 
                          incurred before the date of the 
                          enactment of this paragraph.
                   For purposes of subclause (III), the Secretary may 
                   issue guidance regarding the treatment of 
                   government-provided funds for purposes of 
                   determining eligible remediation expenditures.
            (F) Determination of gain or loss.--For purposes 
               of this paragraph, the determination of gain or loss 
               shall not include an amount treated as gain which is 
               ordinary income with respect to section 1245 or section 
               1250 property, including amounts deducted as section 198 
               expenses which are subject to the recapture rules of 
               section 198(e), if the taxpayer had deducted such 
               amounts in the computation of its unrelated business 
               taxable income.
            G) Special rules for partnerships.--
              (i) In general.--In the case of an eligible 
               taxpayer which is a partner of a qualifying 
               partnership which acquires, remediates, and sells, 
               exchanges, or otherwise disposes of a qualifying 
               brownfield property, this paragraph shall apply to 
               the eligible taxpayer's distributive share of the 
               qualifying partnership's gain or loss from the 
               sale, exchange, or other disposition of such 
               property.
             (ii) Qualifying partnership.--The term 
                  qualifying partnership' means a partnership 
                  which--
                 (I) has a partnership agreement 
                  which satisfies the requirements of 
                  section 514(c)(9)(B)(vi) at all times 
                  beginning on the date of the first 
                  certification received by the 
                  partnership under subparagraph (C)(i),
                (II) satisfies the requirements of 
                  subparagraphs (B)(i), (C), (D), and (E), 
                  if `qualified partnership' is 
                  substituted for `eligible taxpayer' each 
                  place it appears therein (except 
                  subparagraph (D)(iii)), and
               (III) is not an organization which 
                  would be prevented from constituting an 
                  eligible taxpayer by reason of 
                  subparagraph (B)(ii).
            (iii) Requirement 
                  that <<NOTE: Applicability.>> tax-exempt partner 
                  be a partner since first certification.--This 
                  paragraph shall apply with respect to any eligible 
                  taxpayer which is a partner of a partnership which 
                  acquires, remediates, and sells, exchanges, or 
                  otherwise disposes of a qualifying brownfield 
                  property only if such eligible taxpayer was a 
                  partner of the qualifying partnership at all times 
                  beginning on the date of the first certification 
                  received by the partnership under subparagraph 
                  (C)(i) and ending on the date of the sale, 
                  exchange, or other disposition of the property by 
                  the partnership.
            (iv) Regulations.--The Secretary shall 
                  prescribe such regulations as are necessary to 
                  prevent abuse of the requirements of this 
                  subparagraph, including abuse through--
                  (I) the use of special allocations 
                  of gains or losses, or
                 (II) changes in ownership of 
                   partnership interests held by eligible 
                   taxpayers.
         (H) Special rules for multiple properties.--
            (i) In general.--An eligible taxpayer or a 
                qualifying partnership of which the eligible 
                 taxpayer is a partner may make a 1-time election 
                 to apply this paragraph to more than 1 qualifying 
                 brownfield property by averaging the eligible 
                 remediation expenditures for all such properties 
                 acquired during the election period. If the 
                 eligible taxpayer or qualifying partnership makes 
                 such an election, the election shall apply to all 
                 qualified sales, exchanges, or other dispositions 
                 of qualifying brownfield properties the 
                 acquisition and transfer of which occur during the 
                 period for which the election remains in effect.
            (ii) Election.--An election under clause (i) 
                 shall be made with the eligible taxpayer's or 
                 qualifying partnership's timely filed tax return 
                 (including extensions) for the first taxable year 
                 for which the taxpayer or qualifying partnership 
                 intends to have the election apply. An election 
                 under clause (i) is effective for the period--
               (I) beginning on the date which is 
                 the first day of the taxable year of the 
                 return in which the election is included 
                 or a later day in such taxable year 
                 selected by the eligible taxpayer or 
                 qualifying partnership, and
               (II) ending on the date which is 
                  the earliest of a date of revocation 
                  selected by the eligible taxpayer or 
                  qualifying partnership, the date which 
                  is 8 years after the date described in 
                  subclause (I), or, in the case of an 
                  election by a qualifying partnership of 
                  which the eligible taxpayer is a 
                  partner, the date of the termination of 
                  the qualifying partnership.
            (iii) Revocation.--An eligible taxpayer or 
                  qualifying partnership may revoke an election 
                  under clause (i)(II) by filing a statement of 
                  revocation with a timely filed tax return 
                  (including extensions). A revocation is effective 
                  as of the first day of the taxable year of the 
                  return in which the revocation is included or a 
                  later day in such taxable year selected by the 
                  eligible taxpayer or qualifying partnership. Once 
                  an eligible taxpayer or qualifying partnership 
                  revokes the election, the eligible taxpayer or 
                  qualifying partnership is ineligible to make 
                  another election under clause (i) with respect to 
                  any qualifying brownfield property subject to the 
                  revoked election.
         (I) Recapture.--If an eligible taxpayer excludes 
                gain or loss from a sale, exchange, or other  disposition 
                of property to which an election under subparagraph (H) 
                applies, and such property fails to satisfy the 
                requirements of this paragraph, the unrelated business 
                taxable income of the eligible taxpayer for the taxable 
                year in which such failure occurs shall be determined by 
                including any previously excluded gain or loss from such 
                sale, exchange, or other disposition allocable to such 
                taxpayer, and interest shall be determined at the 
                overpayment rate established under section 6621 on any 
                resulting tax for the period beginning with the due date 
                of the return for the taxable year during
                which such sale, exchange, or other disposition 
                occurred, and ending on the date of payment of the tax.
         (J) Related persons.--For purposes of this 
                paragraph, a person shall be treated as related to 
                another person if--
             (i) such person bears a relationship to such 
                 other person described in section 267(b) 
                 (determined without regard to paragraph (9) 
                 thereof), or section 707(b)(1), determined by 
                 substituting `25 percent' for `50 percent' each 
                 place it appears therein, and
            (ii) in the case such other person is a 
                 nonprofit organization, if such person controls 
                 directly or indirectly more than 25 percent of the 
                 governing body of such organization.
         (K) Termination.--Except for purposes of 
                determining the average eligible remediation 
                expenditures for properties acquired during the election 
                period under subparagraph (H), this paragraph shall not 
                apply to any property acquired by the eligible taxpayer 
                or qualifying partnership after December 31, 2009.
    (c) Special rules for partnerships
      (1) In general
        If a trade or business regularly carried on by a partnership of
      which an organization is a member is an unrelated trade or
      business with respect to such organization, such organization in
      computing its unrelated business taxable income shall, subject to
      the exceptions, additions, and limitations contained in
      subsection (b), include its share (whether or not distributed) of
      the gross income of the partnership from such unrelated trade or
      business and its share of the partnership deductions directly
      connected with such gross income.
      (2) Special rule where partnership year is different from
          organization's year
        If the taxable year of the organization is different from that
      of the partnership, the amounts to be included or deducted in
      computing the unrelated business taxable income under paragraph
      (1) shall be based upon the income and deductions of the
      partnership for any taxable year of the partnership ending within
      or with the taxable year of the organization.
    (d) Treatment of dues of agricultural or horticultural
        organizations
      (1) In general
        If -
          (A) an agricultural or horticultural organization described
        in section 501(c)(5) requires annual dues to be paid in order
        to be a member of such organization, and
          (B) the amount of such required annual dues does not exceed
        $100,
      in no event shall any portion of such dues be treated as derived
      by such organization from an unrelated trade or business by
      reason of any benefits or privileges to which members of such
      organization are entitled.
      (2) Indexation of $100 amount
        In the case of any taxable year beginning in a calendar year
      after 1995, the $100 amount in paragraph (1) shall be increased
      by an amount equal to -
          (A) $100, multiplied by
          (B) the cost-of-living adjustment determined under section
        1(f)(3) for the calendar year in which the taxable year begins,
        by substituting ''calendar year 1994'' for ''calendar year
        1992'' in subparagraph (B) thereof.
      (3) Dues
        For purposes of this subsection, the term ''dues'' means any
      payment (whether or not designated as dues) which is required to
      be made in order to be recognized by the organization as a member
      of the organization.
    (e) Special rules applicable to S corporations
      (1) In general
        If an organization described in section 1361(c)(2)(A)(vi) or  
      1361(c)(6) holds stock in an S corporation -     
          (A) such interest shall be treated as an interest in an
        unrelated trade or business, and
          (B) notwithstanding any other provision of this part -
            (i) all items of income, loss, or deduction taken into
          account under section 1366(a), and
            (ii) any gain or loss on the disposition of the stock in
          the S corporation,
      shall be taken into account in computing the unrelated business
      taxable income of such organization.
      (2) Basis reduction
        Except as provided in regulations, for purposes of paragraph
      (1), the basis of any stock acquired by purchase (as defined in
      section 1361(e)(1)(C)) shall be reduced by the amount of any
      dividends received by the organization with respect to the stock.
      (3) Exception for ESOPs
        This subsection shall not apply to employer securities (within
      the meaning of section 409(l)) held by an employee stock
      ownership plan described in section 4975(e)(7).
