    In the case of a taxable year of a taxpayer beginning after December

of agreements and deposits under such agreements shall be as follows:
    (a) A capital construction fund agreement executed and entered into 
by the taxpayer on or prior to the due date, with extensions, for the 
filing of his Federal income tax return for such taxable year or years 
will be deemed to be effective on the date of the execution of such 
agreement or as of the close of business of the last regular business 
day of each such taxable year or years to which such deposit relates, 
whichever day is earlier.
    (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section, 
where:
    (1) For taxable years beginning after December 31, 1969, and prior 
to January 1, 1971, an application for a capital construction fund 
agreement is filed by a taxpayer prior to January 1, 1972, and a capital 
construction fund agreement is executed and entered into by the taxpayer 
prior to March 1, 1972, and
    (2) For taxable years beginning after December 31, 1970, and prior 
to January 1, 1972, an application for a capital construction fund

construction fund agreement is executed and entered into by the taxpayer 
prior to March 1, 1973 (or, if earlier, 60 days after the publication of 
final joint regulations under section 607 of the Merchant Marine Act, 
1936, as amended); then such a capital construction fund agreement will 
be deemed to be effective as of the close of business of the last 
regular business day of each such taxable year or years to which such 
deposit related.
    (c)(1) Deposits made in a capital construction fund pursuant to such 
an agreement within 60 days after the date of execution of the

    (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (c)(1) of this section, for taxable 
years beginning after December 31, 1970, and ending prior to January 1, 
1972, deposits made later than the last date permitted under paragraph 
(c)(1) of this section but on or before January 9, 1973, in a capital

Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, shall be deemed to have been 
made on the date of the actual deposit or as of the close of business of 
the last regular business day of such taxable year, whichever is 
earlier.
    (d) Nothing in this section shall alter the rules and regulations 
governing the timing of deposits with respect to existing capital and
