A. This section applies to the following transfers of stock:

(1) by gift;

(2) at death;

(3) to the extent that the basis of the property in the hands of the transferee is determined by reference to the basis of the property in the hands of the transferor by reason of Sections 334(b), 723 or 732 of the Internal Revenue Code; and

(4) of qualified diversifying business stock for other qualified diversifying business stock in a transaction described in Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code or a reorganization described in Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code.

B. In the case of a transfer of stock to which this section applies, the transferee shall be treated as having acquired the stock in the same manner as the transferor and as having held such stock during any continuous period immediately preceding the transfer during which it was held or treated as held under this section by the transferor.

C. In the case of a transaction described in Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code or a reorganization described in Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code, if a qualified diversifying business stock is transferred for other stock that is not qualified diversifying business stock, the transfer shall be treated as a transfer to which this section applies solely with respect to the person receiving such other stock.

D. This section applies to the sale or exchange of stock treated as qualified diversifying business stock by reason of Subsection C of this section only to the extent of the gain, if any, that would have been recognized at the time of the transfer described in Subsection C of this section if Section 351 or 368 of the Internal Revenue Code had not applied at that time.

E. For purposes of this subsection, stock treated as qualified diversifying business stock under Subsection C of this section shall be so treated for subsequent transactions or reorganizations, except that the limitation of Subsection D of this section shall be applied as of the time of the first transfer to which Subsection C of this section applied.

F. Except in the case of a transaction described in Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code, this section applies only if, immediately after the transaction, the corporation issuing the stock owns, directly or indirectly, stock representing control, within the meaning of Section 368(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, of the corporation whose stock was transferred.
