The proposed regulations provide
guidance for loans made pursuant to a split-dollar life insurance
arrangement. To obtain a particular treatment under the regulations
for certain split- dollar loans, the parties to the loan must make
a written representation, which must be kept as part of their books
and records and a copy filed with their federal income tax returns.
In addition, if a split-dollar loan provides for contingent
payments, the lender must produce a projected payment schedule for
the loan and give the borrower a copy of the schedule. This
schedule is used by parties to compute their interest
accruals
