The undersigned agree and consent to the application of subsection (c) of section 2032A with respect to all the property described on
Form 706, Schedule A-1, Part 2, line 2, attached to this agreement. More specifically, the undersigned heirs expressly agree and
consent to personal liability under subsection (c) of 2032A for the additional estate and GST taxes imposed by that subsection with
respect to their respective interests in the above-described property in the event of certain early dispositions of the property or early
cessation of the qualified use of the property. It is understood that if a qualified heir disposes of any interest in qualified real property
to any member of his or her family, such member may thereafter be treated as the qualified heir with respect to such interest upon
filing a Form 706-A, United States Additional Estate Tax Return, and a new agreement.
The undersigned interested parties who are not qualified heirs consent to the collection of any additional estate and GST taxes
imposed under section 2032A(c) from the specially valued property.
If there is a disposition of any interest which passes, or has passed to him or her, or if there is a cessation of the qualified use of any
specially valued property which passes or passed to him or her, each of the undersigned heirs agrees to file a Form 706-A, and pay
any additional estate and GST taxes due within 6 months of the disposition or cessation.
It is understood by all interested parties that this agreement is a condition precedent to the election of special-use valuation under
section 2032A and must be executed by every interested party even though that person may not have received the estate (or GST) tax
benefits or be in possession of such property.
Each of the undersigned understands that by making this election, a lien will be created and recorded pursuant to section 6324B on
the property referred to in this agreement for the adjusted tax differences with respect to the estate as defined in section 2032A(c)(2)
(C).
As the interested parties, the undersigned designate the following individual as their agent for all dealings with the Internal Revenue
Service concerning the continued qualification of the specially valued property under section 2032A and on all issues regarding the
special lien under section 6324B. The agent is authorized to act for the parties with respect to all dealings with the Internal Revenue
Service on matters affecting the qualified real property described earlier. This includes the authorization:
• To receive confidential information on all matters relating to continued qualification under section 2032A of the specially valued real
property and on all matters relating to the special lien arising under section 6324B;
• To furnish the Internal Revenue Service with any requested information concerning the property;
• To notify the Internal Revenue Service of any disposition or cessation of qualified use of any part of the property;
• To receive, but not to endorse and collect, checks in payment of any refund of Internal Revenue taxes, penalties, or interest;
• To execute waivers (including offers of waivers) of restrictions on assessment or collection of deficiencies in tax and waivers of
notice of disallowance of a claim for credit or refund; and
• To execute closing agreements under section 7121.

Protective Claim for Refund
▶

To be used for decedents dying after December 31, 2011. File 2 copies of this schedule with
Form 706 for each pending claim or expense under section 2053.

OMB No. 1545-0015

• Timely filing a protective claim for refund preserves the estate’s right to claim a refund based on the amount of an unresolved claim
or expense that may not become deductible under section 2053 until after the limitation period ends.
• Schedule PC can be used to file a protective claim for refund and, once the claim or expense becomes deductible, Schedule PC can
be used to notify the IRS that a refund is being claimed.
• Schedule PC can be used by the estate of a decedent dying after 2011.
• Schedule PC must be filed with Form 706 and cannot be filed separately. (To file a protective claim for refund or notify the IRS that a
refund is being claimed in a form separate from the Form 706, instead use Form 843, Claim for Refund and Request for Abatement.)
• Each separate claim or expense requires a separate Schedule PC (or Form 843, if not filed with Form 706).
• Schedule PC must be
