If the Shares are being purchased at a discount from fair market value, the 83(b) election accelerates the timing of the taxation to the time of the grant, and later dispositions are taxed at capital gain rates. If the 83(b) election is not made then the tax is paid at the time the restrictions lapse (which could result in a higher possible taxable spread at that time). An 83(b) election must be made within 30 days of the grant. If the Company pays cash dividends and an 83(b) election is filed, dividends receive dividend tax treatment. However, if no 83(b) election is made (as is the case with most public companies) the Employee will pay ordinary income tax rates on the cash dividend payments until the restrictions on the shares underlying those dividends lapse.
