The election under subparagraph (H) shall be made on or before the 60th day after the date of the enactment of this paragraph or the 60th day after the organization of the corporation, whichever is later, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary or his delegate. Any such election shall be effective as of the date thereof and shall remain in effect until revoked.
