Rickaroo1 -- same as anything else.

Tax free if in a IRA/ROTH account. If in a retail account, same as anything else -- capital gains. But given it's been more than a year, long-term capital gains.

Now there may be some that want to be 'cute' with the IRS and claim it's a "settlement" or other form of non-tax item. I'd highly suggest checking with your tax accountant if you plan on going that route.

In other words, you can expect to get a regular 1099-B from your brokerage, and that recorded with the IRS.

The taxes will already be taken off the top before money is disturbed, at capital gains rate. When we signed releases, this was in the writing. Try doi a Google search for a copy of the releases or call and ask your broker for a copy.
