965.119. When making, in any year, a public security issue consisting of securities that may be included in a stock savings plan II, a qualified mutual fund shall stipulate in the final prospectus relating to their issue that it undertakes to meet the following requirements:(a) to acquire, on or before 31 December in the year, qualifying shares with the proceeds or expected proceeds, for the year, of the public security issue, whose adjusted cost is not less than the adjusted cost of the aggregate of all qualifying securities issued by the qualified mutual fund in the year and constituting valid qualifying securities;
(b) to be the owner, on 31 December in the year and in each of the following two years, of qualifying shares or valid shares, other than qualifying shares or valid shares having already been used, in respect of the same year, for the purposes of this paragraph, and whose adjusted cost is not less than the adjusted cost of the aggregate of all qualifying securities issued by the qualified mutual fund in the year and not redeemed by the qualified mutual fund on 31 December in the year and on 31 December in each of the two years following the year, respectively, as the case may be; and
(c) to ensure, in relation to a qualifying share acquired by the qualified mutual fund, that no coverage deficiency amount may be computed in respect of an individual who has acquired a qualifying security as part of a public security issue.
For the purposes of subparagraph a of the first paragraph and section 965.120, the expected proceeds of a public security issue made by a qualified mutual fund for a year are the proceeds of such a public security issue or a portion of such proceeds, as the case may be, to the extent that(a) the public security issue ends on or before 31 December of that year; and
(b) the proceeds or the portion of the proceeds is used to compensate or repay the acquisition cost of qualifying shares acquired by the qualified mutual fund at a particular time during the 90-day period that precedes the date on which the public security issue ends.
