I'm just seeking confirmation that the Section 1202 exclusion of gain on QSBS does NOT apply to sale of stock by a shareholder who PURCHASED the stock from an 'original' owner.

    In your client's case, §1202 will not apply since it was not purchased at its original issue directly or through an underwriter.  See §1202(c)(1).
