Future developments. For the latest
information about developments related to
Schedule N (Form 990 or 990-EZ), such as
legislation enacted after the schedule and its
instructions were published, go to
www.irs.gov/Form990.
Note: Terms in bold are defined in the
Glossary of the Instructions for Form 990.
Purpose of Schedule
Schedule N (Form 990 or 990-EZ) is used by
an organization that files Form 990 or Form
990-EZ to report going out of existence or
disposing of more than 25 percent of its net
assets through sale, exchange, or other
disposition.
An organization that completely liquidated,
terminated, or dissolved and ceased
operations during the tax year must complete
Part I. An organization that was still in the
process of winding up its affairs at the end of
the tax year, but hadn't completely liquidated,
terminated, or dissolved and ceased
operations, shouldn't complete Part I, but
may need to complete Part II. An organization
that has made a significant disposition of
net assets must complete Part II. For an
organization filing Form 990-EZ, see the
Instructions for Form 990-EZ, line 36, for Part
II reporting requirements. An organization that
has terminated its operations and has no
plans for future activities must complete only
Part I and not Part II of this schedule.
If there are more transactions to report in
Parts I and II than space available, those parts
can be duplicated to report the additional
transactions. Use Part III to report additional
narrative information (see Part III instructions,
later).
Who Must File
Any organization that answered “Yes” to Form
990, Part IV, Checklist of Required Schedules,
line 31 or 32; or Form 990-EZ, line 36; must
complete and attach Schedule N to Form 990
or Form 990-EZ, as applicable.
If an organization isn't required to file Form
990 or Form 990-EZ but chooses to do so, it
must file a complete return and provide all of
the information requested, including the
required schedules.
Specific Instructions
Part I. Liquidation, Termination, or
Dissolution
If the organization answered “Yes” to Form
990, Part IV, line 31, it must complete Part I. If
the organization answered “Yes” to Form
990-EZ, line 36, because it fully liquidated,
dissolved, or terminated during the tax year, it
must complete Part I. An organization must
answer “Yes” to either of these lines if it has
ceased operations and has no plans to
continue any activities or operations in the
future. This includes an organization that has
dissolved, liquidated, terminated, or merged
into a successor organization.
!
CAUTION
An organization must support any
claim to have liquidated,
terminated, dissolved, or merged
by attaching a certified copy of its
articles of dissolution or merger.
If a certified copy of its articles of dissolution
or merger isn't available, the organization may
submit resolutions of its governing board
approving dissolution or merger, and/or plans
of liquidation or merger approved by its
governing board. An organization filing
Schedule N shouldn't report its liquidation,
termination, or dissolution in a letter to IRS
Exempt Organizations, Determinations (“EO
Determinations”). EO Determinations no
longer issues letters confirming that the
organization’s tax-exempt status was
terminated upon its liquidation, termination, or
dissolution.
Line 1. List assets transferred in the
liquidation, termination, dissolution, or
merger.
If there are more transactions to report in
Part I than space available, Part I can be
duplicated to report the additional
transactions.
Column (a). Assets should be aggregated
into categories and should be sufficiently
described. Separately list related transaction
expenses of at least $10,000. A transaction
expense consists of a payment to a
professional or other third party for services
rendered to assist in the transaction or in the
winding down of the organization’s activities,
such as attorney or accountant fees.
Brokerage fees shouldn't be included as
transaction expenses in column (a), but
should be included in the fair market value
(FMV) amount in column (c).
Column (b). Enter the date the assets were
distributed or the date when the transaction
expense was paid.
Column (c). Enter the FMV of the asset
distributed or the amount of transaction
expense paid.
Column (d). Enter the method of valuation
for the asset being distributed. Methods of
valuation include appraisals, comparables,
book value, actual cost (with or without
depreciation), and outstanding offers (among
other methods). For transaction expenses,
provide the method for determining the
amount of the expense, such as an hourly rate
or fixed fee.
Columns (e) and (f). Enter the EIN, name,
and address of each recipient of assets
distributed or transaction expenses paid.
Don't enter social security numbers of
individual recipients. For membership
organizations that transfer assets to individual
members, the names of individual members
needn't be reported. Rather, the members
may be aggregated into specific classes of
membership, or they may be aggregated into
one group, if there is only one class of
membership.
Column (g). Enter the section of the
Internal Revenue Code under which the
transferee organization is tax-exempt (for
instance, section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4)), if it is
exempt. For recipients that aren't tax-exempt
under a particular section of the Code, enter
the type of entity. Examples of types of entity
are government agencies or
governmental units, or a limited liability
company (LLC). Report “individual” if the
recipient isn't an entity.
Line 2. Report whether any officer, director,
trustee, or key employee listed in Form 990,
Part VII, Section A, is (or is expected to
become) involved in a successor or transferee
organization by governing, controlling, or
having a financial interest in that organization.
“Having a financial interest” includes
receiving payments from a successor or
transferee organization as an employee,
independent contractor, or in any other
capacity.
Line 2a. Check “Yes” if any officer, director,
trustee, or key employee listed in Form 990,
Part VII, Section A, is (or is expected to
become) a director or trustee of a successor
or transferee organization.
Line 2b. Check “Yes” if any officer,
director, trustee, or key employee listed in
Form 990, Part VII, Section A, is (or is
expected to become) an employee of, or
independent contractor for, a successor or
transferee organization.
Line 2c. Check “Yes” if any officer, director,
trustee, or key employee listed on Form 990,
Part VII, Section A, is (or is expected to
become) an owner, whether direct or indirect,
in a successor or transferee organization.
Line 2d. Check “Yes” if any officer,
director, trustee, or key employee listed on
Form 990, Part VII, Section A, has received or
is expected to receive compensation or
other similar payment” as a result of the
liquidation, termination, or dissolution of the
organization, whether paid by the organization
or a successor or transferee organization. For
this purpose, “compensation or other similar
payment” includes a severance payment, a
“change in control” payment, or any other
payment that wouldn't have been made to the
individual if the dissolution, liquidation, or
termination of the organization hadn't
occurred.
Line 2e. If the organization checked “Yes”
to any of the other questions on lines 2a
through 2d, provide the name of the person
involved, and explain in Part III the nature of
the listed person’s relationship with the
successor or transferee organization and the
type of benefit received or to be received by
the person.
Line 3. Check “Yes” if the organization’s
assets were distributed in accordance with its
governing instrument.
Line 4a. Check “Yes” if the organization is
required to notify a state attorney general or
other appropriate state official of the
organization’s intent to dissolve, liquidate, or
terminate.
Line 4b. Check “Yes” if the organization
provided the notice described in line 4a.
Line 5. Check “Yes” if the organization
discharged or paid all of its liabilities in
accordance with state law.
Line 6a. Check “Yes” and complete line 6b if
the organization had any tax-exempt bonds
outstanding during the year.
Line 6b. Check “Yes” and complete line 6c if
the organization discharged or defeased all of
its tax-exempt bond liabilities during the tax
year. Leave line 6b blank if the answer to
line 6a is "No."
Schedule N (Form 990 or 990-EZ) 2018
Page 5
Line 6c. If the organization checked “Yes” on
line 6b, explain in Part III how the bond
liabilities were discharged, defeased, or
otherwise settled during the year. Also
provide an explanation if any bond liabilities
were discharged, defeased, or otherwise
settled other than in accordance with the
Code or applicable state law, or if the
organization did not discharge or defease any
of its bond liabilities. If the organization
avoided the need for a defeasance of bonds,
such as through the transfer of assets to
another section 501(c)(3) organization, provide
the name of the transferees of such assets,
the CUSIP number of the bond issue, and a
description of the terms of such arrangements
in Part III.
TIP
An organization that completes
Part I doesn't complete Part II.
Part II. Sale, Exchange,
Disposition, or Other Transfer of
More Than 25 Percent of the
Organization’s Assets
If an organization answered “Yes” to Form
990, Part IV, line 32 or Form 990-EZ, line 36,
because it made a significant disposition of
net assets during the tax year, it must
complete Part II. A significant disposition of
the organization’s net assets includes a sale,
exchange, disposition, or other transfer of
more than 25 percent of the FMV of its net
assets during the tax year, regardless of
whether the organization received full and
adequate consideration. A significant
disposition of net assets involves:
1. One or more dispositions during the
organization’s tax year amounting to more
than 25 percent of the FMV of the
organization’s net assets as of the beginning
of its tax year; or
2. One of a series of related dispositions or
events commenced in a prior year, that, when
combined, comprise more than 25 percent of
the FMV of the organization’s net assets as of
the beginning of the tax year when the first
disposition in the series was made. Whether a
significant disposition occurred through a
series of related dispositions or events
depends on the facts and circumstances in
each case.
A significant disposition of net assets may
result from either an expansion or a
contraction of operations. Examples of the
types of transactions required to be reported
in Part II as significant dispositions of net
assets include the following:
• Taxable or tax-free sales or exchanges of
exempt assets for cash or other consideration
(such as a social club described in section
501(c)(7) selling land or assets it had used to
further its exempt purposes).
• Sales, contributions, or other transfers of
assets to establish or maintain a partnership,
joint venture, or a corporation (for-profit or
nonprofit) regardless of whether such sales or
transfers are governed by section 721 or
section 351, and whether or not the transferor
receives an ownership interest in exchange
for the transfer.
• Sales of assets by a partnership or joint
venture in which the organization has an
ownership interest.
• Transfers of assets pursuant to a
reorganization in which the organization is a
surviving entity.
The following types of situations aren't
required to be reported in Part II:
• The change in composition of publicly
traded securities held in an exempt
organization’s passive investment portfolio.
• Asset sales made in the ordinary course of
the organization's exempt activities to
accomplish the organization's exempt
purposes; for instance, gross sales of
inventory.
• Grants or other assistance made in the
ordinary course of the organization's exempt
activities to accomplish the organization's
exempt purposes; for instance, the regular
charitable distributions of a United Way or
other federated fundraising organization.
• A decrease in the value of net assets due to
market fluctuation in the value of assets held
by the organization.
• Transfers to a disregarded entity of which
the organization is the sole member.
For purposes of Schedule N, “net assets”
means total assets less total liabilities. The
determination of a significant disposition of
net assets is made by reference to the FMV of
the organization’s net assets at the beginning
of the tax year (in the case of a series of
related dispositions that commenced in a
prior year, at the beginning of the tax year
during which the first disposition was made).

If there are more transactions to report in
Part II than space available, Part II can be

6c, and Part II, line 2e. Also use Part III to
provide additional narrative explanations and
descriptions as necessary to support or
