1 (3) United States savings bonds that are presumed
2 abandoned and unclaimed under paragraph (2) shall escheat
3 to the State of Illinois and all property rights and legal
4 title to and ownership of the United States savings bonds,
5 or proceeds from the bonds, including all rights, powers,
6 and privileges of survivorship of any owner, co-owner, or
7 beneficiary, shall vest solely in the State according to
8 the procedure set forth in paragraphs (4) through (6).
9 (4) Within 180 days after a United States savings bond
10 has been presumed abandoned, in the absence of a claim
11 having been filed with the State Treasurer for the savings
12 bond, the State Treasurer shall commence a civil action in
13 the Circuit Court of Sangamon County for a determination
14 that the United States savings bond has escheated to the
15 State. The State Treasurer may postpone the bringing of the
16 action until sufficient United States savings bonds have
17 accumulated in the State Treasurer's custody to justify the
18 expense of the proceedings.
19 (5) The State Treasurer shall make service by
20 publication in the civil action in accordance with Sections
21 2-206 and 2-207 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which shall
22 include the filing with the Circuit Court of Sangamon
23 County of the affidavit required in Section 2-206 of that
24 Code by an employee of the State Treasurer with personal
25 knowledge of the efforts made to contact the owners of
26 United States savings bonds presumed abandoned under this

HB0321- 19 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Section. In addition to the diligent inquiries made
2 pursuant to Section 2-206 of the Code of Civil Procedure,
3 the State Treasurer may also utilize additional
4 discretionary means to attempt to provide notice to persons
5 who may own a United States savings bond registered to a
6 person with a last known address in the State of Illinois
7 subject to a civil action pursuant to paragraph (4).
8 (6) The owner of a United States savings bond
9 registered to a person with a last known address in the
10 State of Illinois subject to a civil action pursuant to
11 paragraph (4) may file a claim for such United States
12 savings bond with either the State Treasurer or by filing a
13 claim in the civil action in the Circuit Court of Sangamon
14 County in which the savings bond registered to that person
15 is at issue prior to the entry of a final judgment by the
16 Circuit Court pursuant to this subsection, and unless the
17 Circuit Court determines that such United States savings
18 bond is not owned by the claimant, then such United States
19 savings bond shall no longer be presumed abandoned. If no
20 person files a claim or appears at the hearing to
21 substantiate a disputed claim or if the court determines
22 that a claimant is not entitled to the property claimed by
23 the claimant, then the court, if satisfied by evidence that
24 the State Treasurer has substantially complied with the
25 laws of this State, shall enter a judgment that the United
26 States savings bonds have escheated to this State, and all

HB0321- 20 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 property rights and legal title to and ownership of such
2 United States savings bonds or proceeds from such bonds,
3 including all rights, powers, and privileges of
4 survivorship of any owner, co-owner, or beneficiary, shall
5 vest in this State.
6 (7) The State Treasurer shall redeem from the Bureau of
7 the Fiscal Service of the United States Treasury the United
8 States savings bonds escheated to the State and deposit the
9 proceeds from the redemption of United States savings bonds
10 into the Unclaimed Property Trust Fund.
11 (8) Any person making a claim for the United States
12 savings bonds escheated to the State under this subsection,
13 or for the proceeds from such bonds, may file a claim with
14 the State Treasurer. Upon providing sufficient proof of the
15 validity of such person's claim, the State Treasurer may,
16 in his or her sole discretion, pay such claim. If payment
17 has been made to any claimant, no action thereafter shall
18 be maintained by any other claimant against the State or
19 any officer thereof for or on account of such funds.

10have the powers and authority, and is charged with the duties
11and responsibilities designated in this Act, and a State bank
12shall not be subject to any other visitorial power other than
13as authorized by this Act, except those vested in the courts,
14or upon prior consultation with the Secretary, a foreign bank
15regulator with an appropriate supervisory interest in the
16parent or affiliate of a state bank. In the performance of the
17Secretary's duties:
18 (1) The Commissioner shall call for statements from all
19 State banks as provided in Section 47 at least one time
20 during each calendar quarter.
21 (2) (a) The Commissioner, as often as the Commissioner
22 shall deem necessary or proper, and no less frequently than
23 18 months following the preceding examination, shall
24 appoint a suitable person or persons to make an examination

HB0321- 95 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 of the affairs of every State bank, except that for every
2 eligible State bank, as defined by regulation, the
3 Commissioner in lieu of the examination may accept on an
4 alternating basis the examination made by the eligible
5 State bank's appropriate federal banking agency pursuant
6 to Section 111 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
7 Improvement Act of 1991, provided the appropriate federal
8 banking agency has made such an examination. A person so
9 appointed shall not be a stockholder or officer or employee
10 of any bank which that person may be directed to examine,
11 and shall have powers to make a thorough examination into
12 all the affairs of the bank and in so doing to examine any
13 of the officers or agents or employees thereof on oath and
14 shall make a full and detailed report of the condition of
15 the bank to the Commissioner. In making the examination the
16 examiners shall include an examination of the affairs of
17 all the affiliates of the bank, as defined in subsection
18 (b) of Section 35.2 of this Act, or subsidiaries of the
19 bank as shall be necessary to disclose fully the conditions
20 of the subsidiaries or affiliates, the relations between
21 the bank and the subsidiaries or affiliates and the effect
22 of those relations upon the affairs of the bank, and in
23 connection therewith shall have power to examine any of the
24 officers, directors, agents, or employees of the
25 subsidiaries or affiliates on oath. After May 31, 1997, the
26 Commissioner may enter into cooperative agreements with

HB0321- 96 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 state regulatory authorities of other states to provide for
2 examination of State bank branches in those states, and the
3 Commissioner may accept reports of examinations of State
4 bank branches from those state regulatory authorities.
5 These cooperative agreements may set forth the manner in
6 which the other state regulatory authorities may be
7 compensated for examinations prepared for and submitted to
8 the Commissioner.
9 (b) After May 31, 1997, the Commissioner is authorized
10 to examine, as often as the Commissioner shall deem
11 necessary or proper, branches of out-of-state banks. The
12 Commissioner may establish and may assess fees to be paid
13 to the Commissioner for examinations under this subsection
14 (b). The fees shall be borne by the out-of-state bank,
15 unless the fees are borne by the state regulatory authority
16 that chartered the out-of-state bank, as determined by a
17 cooperative agreement between the Commissioner and the
18 state regulatory authority that chartered the out-of-state
19 bank.
20 (2.1) Pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection (6) of
21 this Section, the Secretary shall adopt rules that ensure
22 consistency and due process in the examination process. The
23 Secretary may also establish guidelines that (i) define the
24 scope of the examination process and (ii) clarify
25 examination items to be resolved. The rules, formal
26 guidance, interpretive letters, or opinions furnished to

HB0321- 97 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b

2 State banks.
3 (2.5) Whenever any State bank, any subsidiary or
4 affiliate of a State bank, or after May 31, 1997, any
5 branch of an out-of-state bank causes to be performed, by
6 contract or otherwise, any bank services for itself,
7 whether on or off its premises:
8 (a) that performance shall be subject to
9 examination by the Commissioner to the same extent as
10 if services were being performed by the bank or, after
11 May 31, 1997, branch of the out-of-state bank itself on
12 its own premises; and
13 (b) the bank or, after May 31, 1997, branch of the
14 out-of-state bank shall notify the Commissioner of the
15 existence of a service relationship. The notification
16 shall be submitted with the first statement of
17 condition (as required by Section 47 of this Act) due
18 after the making of the service contract or the
19 performance of the service, whichever occurs first.
20 The Commissioner shall be notified of each subsequent
21 contract in the same manner.
22 For purposes of this subsection (2.5), the term "bank
23 services" means services such as sorting and posting of
24 checks and deposits, computation and posting of interest
25 and other credits and charges, preparation and mailing of
26 checks, statements, notices, and similar items, or any

HB0321- 98 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 other clerical, bookkeeping, accounting, statistical, or
2 similar functions performed for a State bank, including but
3 not limited to electronic data processing related to those
4 bank services.
5 (3) The expense of administering this Act, including
6 the expense of the examinations of State banks as provided
7 in this Act, shall to the extent of the amounts resulting
8 from the fees provided for in paragraphs (a), (a-2), and
9 (b) of this subsection (3) be assessed against and borne by
10 the State banks:
11 (a) Each bank shall pay to the Secretary a Call
12 Report Fee which shall be paid in quarterly
13 installments equal to one-fourth of the sum of the
14 annual fixed fee of $800, plus a variable fee based on
15 the assets shown on the quarterly statement of
16 condition delivered to the Secretary in accordance
17 with Section 47 for the preceding quarter according to
18 the following schedule: 16¢ per $1,000 of the first
19 $5,000,000 of total assets, 15¢ per $1,000 of the next
20 $20,000,000 of total assets, 13¢ per $1,000 of the next
21 $75,000,000 of total assets, 9¢ per $1,000 of the next
22 $400,000,000 of total assets, 7¢ per $1,000 of the next
23 $500,000,000 of total assets, and 5¢ per $1,000 of all
24 assets in excess of $1,000,000,000, of the State bank.
25 The Call Report Fee shall be calculated by the
26 Secretary and billed to the banks for remittance at the

HB0321- 99 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 time of the quarterly statements of condition provided
2 for in Section 47. The Secretary may require payment of
3 the fees provided in this Section by an electronic
4 transfer of funds or an automatic debit of an account
5 of each of the State banks. In case more than one
6 examination of any bank is deemed by the Secretary to
7 be necessary in any examination frequency cycle
8 specified in subsection 2(a) of this Section, and is
9 performed at his direction, the Secretary may assess a
10 reasonable additional fee to recover the cost of the
11 additional examination; provided, however, that an
12 examination conducted at the request of the State
13 Treasurer pursuant to the Uniform Disposition of
14 Unclaimed Property Act shall not be deemed to be an
15 additional examination under this Section. In lieu of
16 the method and amounts set forth in this paragraph (a)
17 for the calculation of the Call Report Fee, the
18 Secretary may specify by rule that the Call Report Fees
19 provided by this Section may be assessed semiannually
20 or some other period and may provide in the rule the
21 formula to be used for calculating and assessing the
22 periodic Call Report Fees to be paid by State banks.
23 (a-1) If in the opinion of the Commissioner an
24 emergency exists or appears likely, the Commissioner
25 may assign an examiner or examiners to monitor the
26 affairs of a State bank with whatever frequency he

HB0321- 100 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 deems appropriate, including but not limited to a daily
2 basis. The reasonable and necessary expenses of the
3 Commissioner during the period of the monitoring shall
4 be borne by the subject bank. The Commissioner shall
5 furnish the State bank a statement of time and expenses
6 if requested to do so within 30 days of the conclusion
7 of the monitoring period.
8 (a-2) On and after January 1, 1990, the reasonable
9 and necessary expenses of the Commissioner during
10 examination of the performance of electronic data
11 processing services under subsection (2.5) shall be
12 borne by the banks for which the services are provided.
13 An amount, based upon a fee structure prescribed by the
14 Commissioner, shall be paid by the banks or, after May
15 31, 1997, branches of out-of-state banks receiving the
16 electronic data processing services along with the
17 Call Report Fee assessed under paragraph (a) of this
18 subsection (3).
19 (a-3) After May 31, 1997, the reasonable and
20 necessary expenses of the Commissioner during
21 examination of the performance of electronic data
22 processing services under subsection (2.5) at or on
23 behalf of branches of out-of-state banks shall be borne
24 by the out-of-state banks, unless those expenses are
25 borne by the state regulatory authorities that
26 chartered the out-of-state banks, as determined by

HB0321- 101 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 cooperative agreements between the Commissioner and
2 the state regulatory authorities that chartered the
3 out-of-state banks.
4 (b) "Fiscal year" for purposes of this Section 48
5 is defined as a period beginning July 1 of any year and
6 ending June 30 of the next year. The Commissioner shall
7 receive for each fiscal year, commencing with the
8 fiscal year ending June 30, 1987, a contingent fee
9 equal to the lesser of the aggregate of the fees paid
10 by all State banks under paragraph (a) of subsection
11 (3) for that year, or the amount, if any, whereby the
12 aggregate of the administration expenses, as defined
13 in paragraph (c), for that fiscal year exceeds the sum
14 of the aggregate of the fees payable by all State banks
15 for that year under paragraph (a) of subsection (3),
16 plus any amounts transferred into the Bank and Trust
17 Company Fund from the State Pensions Fund for that
18 year, plus all other amounts collected by the
19 Commissioner for that year under any other provision of
20 this Act, plus the aggregate of all fees collected for
21 that year by the Commissioner under the Corporate
22 Fiduciary Act, excluding the receivership fees
23 provided for in Section 5-10 of the Corporate Fiduciary
24 Act, and the Foreign Banking Office Act. The aggregate
25 amount of the contingent fee thus arrived at for any
26 fiscal year shall be apportioned amongst, assessed

HB0321- 102 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 upon, and paid by the State banks and foreign banking
2 corporations, respectively, in the same proportion
3 that the fee of each under paragraph (a) of subsection
4 (3), respectively, for that year bears to the aggregate
5 for that year of the fees collected under paragraph (a)
6 of subsection (3). The aggregate amount of the
7 contingent fee, and the portion thereof to be assessed
8 upon each State bank and foreign banking corporation,
9 respectively, shall be determined by the Commissioner
10 and shall be paid by each, respectively, within 120
11 days of the close of the period for which the
12 contingent fee is computed and is payable, and the
13 Commissioner shall give 20 days days' advance notice of
14 the amount of the contingent fee payable by the State
15 bank and of the date fixed by the Commissioner for
16 payment of the fee.
17 (c) The "administration expenses" for any fiscal
18 year shall mean the ordinary and contingent expenses
19 for that year incident to making the examinations
20 provided for by, and for otherwise administering, this
21 Act, the Corporate Fiduciary Act, excluding the
22 expenses paid from the Corporate Fiduciary
23 Receivership account in the Bank and Trust Company
24 Fund, the Foreign Banking Office Act, the Electronic
25 Fund Transfer Act, and the Illinois Bank Examiners'
26 Education Foundation Act, including all salaries and

HB0321- 103 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 other compensation paid for personal services rendered
2 for the State by officers or employees of the State,
3 including the Commissioner and the Deputy
4 Commissioners, communication equipment and services,
5 office furnishings, surety bond premiums, and travel
6 expenses of those officers and employees, employees,
7 expenditures or charges for the acquisition,
8 enlargement or improvement of, or for the use of, any
9 office space, building, or structure, or expenditures
10 for the maintenance thereof or for furnishing heat,
11 light, or power with respect thereto, all to the extent
12 that those expenditures are directly incidental to
13 such examinations or administration. The Commissioner
14 shall not be required by paragraphs (c) or (d-1) of
15 this subsection (3) to maintain in any fiscal year's
16 budget appropriated reserves for accrued vacation and
17 accrued sick leave that is required to be paid to
18 employees of the Commissioner upon termination of
19 their service with the Commissioner in an amount that
20 is more than is reasonably anticipated to be necessary
21 for any anticipated turnover in employees, whether due
22 to normal attrition or due to layoffs, terminations, or
23 resignations.
24 (d) The aggregate of all fees collected by the
25 Secretary under this Act, the Corporate Fiduciary Act,
26 or the Foreign Banking Office Act on and after July 1,

HB0321- 104 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 1979, shall be paid promptly after receipt of the same,
2 accompanied by a detailed statement thereof, into the
3 State treasury and shall be set apart in a special fund
4 to be known as the "Bank and Trust Company Fund",
5 except as provided in paragraph (c) of subsection (11)
6 of this Section. All earnings received from
7 investments of funds in the Bank and Trust Company Fund
8 shall be deposited in the Bank and Trust Company Fund
9 and may be used for the same purposes as fees deposited
10 in that Fund. The amount from time to time deposited
11 into the Bank and Trust Company Fund shall be used: (i)
12 to offset the ordinary administrative expenses of the
13 Secretary as defined in this Section or (ii) as a
14 credit against fees under paragraph (d-1) of this
15 subsection (3). Nothing in this amendatory Act of 1979
16 shall prevent continuing the practice of paying
17 expenses involving salaries, retirement, social
18 security, and State-paid insurance premiums of State
19 officers by appropriations from the General Revenue
20 Fund. However, the General Revenue Fund shall be
21 reimbursed for those payments made on and after July 1,
22 1979, by an annual transfer of funds from the Bank and
23 Trust Company Fund. Moneys in the Bank and Trust
24 Company Fund may be transferred to the Professions
25 Indirect Cost Fund, as authorized under Section
26 2105-300 of the Department of Professional Regulation

HB0321- 105 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois.
2 Notwithstanding provisions in the State Finance
3 Act, as now or hereafter amended, or any other law to
4 the contrary, the sum of $18,788,847 shall be
5 transferred from the Bank and Trust Company Fund to the
6 Financial Institutions Settlement of 2008 Fund on the
7 effective date of this amendatory Act of the 95th
8 General Assembly, or as soon thereafter as practical.
9 Notwithstanding provisions in the State Finance
10 Act, as now or hereafter amended, or any other law to
11 the contrary, the Governor may, during any fiscal year
12 through January 10, 2011, from time to time direct the
13 State Treasurer and Comptroller to transfer a
14 specified sum not exceeding 10% of the revenues to be
15 deposited into the Bank and Trust Company Fund during
16 that fiscal year from that Fund to the General Revenue
17 Fund in order to help defray the State's operating
18 costs for the fiscal year. Notwithstanding provisions
19 in the State Finance Act, as now or hereafter amended,
20 or any other law to the contrary, the total sum
21 transferred during any fiscal year through January 10,
22 2011, from the Bank and Trust Company Fund to the
23 General Revenue Fund pursuant to this provision shall
24 not exceed during any fiscal year 10% of the revenues
25 to be deposited into the Bank and Trust Company Fund
26 during that fiscal year. The State Treasurer and

HB0321- 106 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Comptroller shall transfer the amounts designated
2 under this Section as soon as may be practicable after
3 receiving the direction to transfer from the Governor.
4 (d-1) Adequate funds shall be available in the Bank
5 and Trust Company Fund to permit the timely payment of
6 administration expenses. In each fiscal year the total
7 administration expenses shall be deducted from the
8 total fees collected by the Commissioner and the
9 remainder transferred into the Cash Flow Reserve
10 Account, unless the balance of the Cash Flow Reserve
11 Account prior to the transfer equals or exceeds
12 one-fourth of the total initial appropriations from
13 the Bank and Trust Company Fund for the subsequent
14 year, in which case the remainder shall be credited to
15 State banks and foreign banking corporations and
16 applied against their fees for the subsequent year. The
17 amount credited to each State bank and foreign banking
18 corporation shall be in the same proportion as the Call
19 Report Fees paid by each for the year bear to the total
20 Call Report Fees collected for the year. If, after a
21 transfer to the Cash Flow Reserve Account is made or if
22 no remainder is available for transfer, the balance of
23 the Cash Flow Reserve Account is less than one-fourth
24 of the total initial appropriations for the subsequent
25 year and the amount transferred is less than 5% of the
26 total Call Report Fees for the year, additional amounts

HB0321- 107 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 needed to make the transfer equal to 5% of the total
2 Call Report Fees for the year shall be apportioned
3 amongst, assessed upon, and paid by the State banks and
4 foreign banking corporations in the same proportion
5 that the Call Report Fees of each, respectively, for
6 the year bear to the total Call Report Fees collected
7 for the year. The additional amounts assessed shall be
8 transferred into the Cash Flow Reserve Account. For
9 purposes of this paragraph (d-1), the calculation of
10 the fees collected by the Commissioner shall exclude
11 the receivership fees provided for in Section 5-10 of
12 the Corporate Fiduciary Act.
13 (e) The Commissioner may upon request certify to
14 any public record in his keeping and shall have
15 authority to levy a reasonable charge for issuing
16 certifications of any public record in his keeping.
17 (f) In addition to fees authorized elsewhere in
18 this Act, the Commissioner may, in connection with a
19 review, approval, or provision of a service, levy a
20 reasonable charge to recover the cost of the review,
21 approval, or service.
22 (4) Nothing contained in this Act shall be construed to
23 limit the obligation relative to examinations and reports
24 of any State bank, deposits in which are to any extent
25 insured by the United States or any agency thereof, nor to
26 limit in any way the powers of the Commissioner with

HB0321- 108 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 reference to examinations and reports of that bank.
2 (5) The nature and condition of the assets in or
3 investment of any bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan
4 for officers or employees of every State bank or, after May
5 31, 1997, branch of an out-of-state bank shall be deemed to
6 be included in the affairs of that State bank or branch of
7 an out-of-state bank subject to examination by the
8 Commissioner under the provisions of subsection (2) of this
9 Section, and if the Commissioner shall find from an
10 examination that the condition of or operation of the
11 investments or assets of the plan is unlawful, fraudulent,
12 or unsafe, or that any trustee has abused his trust, the
13 Commissioner shall, if the situation so found by the

9recommending the credit union be dissolved voluntarily, and
10directing that the question of liquidating be submitted to the
11members.
12 (3) Within 10 days after the board of directors decides to
13submit the question of liquidation to the members, the chairman
14or president shall notify the Secretary thereof, in writing,
15setting forth the reasons for the proposed action. Within 10
16days after the members act on the question of liquidation, the
17chairman or president shall notify the Secretary, in writing,
18as to whether or not the members approved the proposed
19liquidation. The Secretary then must determine whether this
20Section has been complied with and if his decision is
21favorable, he shall prepare a certificate to the effect that
22this Section has been complied with, a copy of which will be
23retained by the Department and the other copy forwarded to the
24credit union. The certificate must be filed with the recorder
25or if there is no recorder, in the office of the county clerk

HB0321- 180 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1of the county or counties in which the credit union is
2operating, whereupon the credit union must cease operations
3except for the purpose of its liquidation.

5to submit the question of liquidation to the members, payment
6on shares, withdrawal of shares, making any transfer of shares

10shall be permanently discontinued. The necessary expenses of
11operating shall, however, continue to be paid on authorization
12of the board of directors or the liquidating agent during the
13period of liquidation.
14 (5) For a credit union to enter voluntary liquidation, it
15must be approved by affirmative vote of the members owning a
16majority of the shares entitled to vote, in person or by proxy,
17at a regular or special meeting of the members. Notice, in
18writing, shall be given to each member, by first class mail, at

23assets as required by this Act.
24 (6) A liquidating credit union shall continue in existence
25for the purpose of discharging its debts, collecting and

1to terminate its operations and may sue and be sued for the
2purpose of enforcing such debts and obligations until its
3affairs are fully adjusted.
4 (7) Subject to such rules and regulations as the Secretary
5may promulgate, the liquidating agent shall use the assets of
6the credit union to pay; first, expenses incidental to
7liquidating including any surety bond that may be required;
8then, liabilities of the credit union; then special classes of
9shares. The remaining assets shall then be distributed to the
10members proportionately to the dollar value of the shares held

12shares outstanding as of the date the dissolution was voted.
13 (8) As soon as the liquidating agent determines that all
14assets as to which there is a reasonable expectancy of sale or
15transfer have been liquidated and distributed as set forth in
16this Section, he shall execute a certificate of dissolution on
17a form prescribed by the Department and file the same, together
18with all pertinent books and records of the liquidating credit
19union with the Department, whereupon such credit union shall be
20dissolved. The liquidating agent must, within 3 years after
21issuance of a certificate by the Secretary referred to in
22Subsection (3) of this Section, discharge the debts of the
23credit union, collect and distribute its assets and do all
24other acts required to wind up its business.

3control of the credit union and remove the liquidating agent
4and appoint a liquidating agent to complete the liquidation
5under his direction and control. The Secretary shall fill any
6vacancy caused by the resignation, death, illness, removal,
7desertion or incapacity to function of the liquidating agent.
8 (10) Any funds representing unclaimed dividends and shares
9in liquidation and remaining in the hands of the board of
10directors or the liquidating agent at the end of the
11liquidation must be deposited by them, together with all books
12and papers of the credit union, with the State Treasurer in

16 Section 65. The Currency Exchange Act is amended by
17changing Sections 15.1b and 19.3 as follows:
18 (205 ILCS 405/15.1b) (from Ch. 17, par. 4827)
19 Sec. 15.1b. Liquidation; distribution; priority. The
20General Assembly finds and declares that community currency
21exchanges provide important and vital services to Illinois
22citizens. The General Assembly also finds that in providing
23such services, community currency exchanges transact extensive
24business involving check cashing and the writing of money

HB0321- 183 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1orders in communities in which banking services are generally
2unavailable. It is therefore declared to be the policy of this
3State that customers who receive these services must be
4protected from insolvencies of currency exchanges and
5interruptions of services. To carry out this policy and to
6insure that customers of community currency exchanges are
7protected in the event it is determined that a community
8currency exchange in receivership should be liquidated in
9accordance with Section 15.1a of this Act, the Secretary shall
10make a distribution of moneys collected by the receiver in the
11following order of priority: First, allowed claims for the
12actual necessary expenses of the receivership of the community
13currency exchange being liquidated, including (a) reasonable
14receiver fees and receiver's attorney's fees approved by the
15Secretary, (b) all expenses of any preliminary or other
16examinations into the condition of the community currency
17exchange or receivership, (c) all expenses incurred by the
18Secretary which are incident to possession and control of any
19property or records of the community currency exchange, and (d)
20reasonable expenses incurred by the Secretary as the result of
21business agreements or contractual arrangements necessary to
22insure that the services of the community currency exchanges
23are delivered to the community without interruption. Said
24business agreements or contractual arrangements may include,
25but are not limited to, agreements made by the Secretary, or by
26the Receiver with the approval of the Secretary, with banks,

HB0321- 184 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1money order companies, bonding companies and other types of
2financial institutions; Second, allowed claims by a purchaser
3of money orders issued on demand of the community currency
4exchange being liquidated; Third, allowed claims arising by
5virtue of and to the extent of the amount a utility customer
6deposits with the community currency exchange being liquidated
7which are not remitted to the utility company; Fourth, allowed
8claims arising by virtue of and to the extent of the amount
9paid by a purchaser of Illinois license plates, vehicle
10stickers sold for State and municipal governments in Illinois,
11and temporary Illinois registration permits purchased at the
12currency exchange being liquidated; Fifth, allowed unsecured
13claims for wages or salaries, excluding vacation, severance and
14sick leave pay earned by employee earned within 90 days prior
15to the appointment of a Receiver; Sixth, secured claims;
16Seventh, allowed unsecured claims of any tax, and interest and
17penalty on the tax; Eighth, allowed unsecured claims other than
18a kind specified in paragraph one, two and three of this
19Section, filed with the Secretary within the time the Secretary
20fixes for filing claims; Ninth, allowed unsecured claims, other
21than a kind specified in paragraphs one, two and three of this
22Section filed with the Secretary after the time fixed for
23filing claims by the Secretary; Tenth, allowed creditor claims
24asserted by an owner, member, or stockholder of the community
25currency exchange in liquidation; Eleventh, after one year from
26the final dissolution of the currency exchange, all assets not

HB0321- 185 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1used to satisfy allowed claims shall be distributed pro rata to
2the owner, owners, members, or stockholders of the currency
3exchange.
4 The Secretary shall pay all claims of equal priority
5according to the schedule set out above, and shall not pay
6claims of lower priority until all higher priority claims are
7satisfied. If insufficient assets are available to meet all
8claims of equal priority, those assets shall be distributed pro
9rata among those claims. All unclaimed assets of a currency
10exchange shall be deposited with the Secretary to be paid out
11by him when proper claims therefor are presented to the
12Secretary. If there are funds remaining after the conclusion of
13a receivership of an abandoned currency exchange, the remaining
14funds shall be considered unclaimed property and remitted to
15the State Treasurer under the Revised Uniform Disposition of
16Unclaimed Property Act.

18 (205 ILCS 405/19.3) (from Ch. 17, par. 4838)
19 (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 100-704)
20 Sec. 19.3. (A) The General Assembly hereby finds and
21declares: community currency exchanges and ambulatory currency
22exchanges provide important and vital services to Illinois
23citizens. In so doing, they transact extensive business
24involving check cashing and the writing of money orders in
25communities in which banking services are generally

HB0321- 186 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1unavailable. Customers of currency exchanges who receive these
2services must be protected from being charged unreasonable and
3unconscionable rates for cashing checks and purchasing money
4orders. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional
5Regulation has the responsibility for regulating the
6operations of currency exchanges and has the expertise to
7determine reasonable maximum rates to be charged for check
8cashing and money order purchases. Therefore, it is in the
9public interest, convenience, welfare and good to have the
10Department establish reasonable maximum rate schedules for
11check cashing and the issuance of money orders and to require
12community and ambulatory currency exchanges to prominently
13display to the public the fees charged for all services. The
14Secretary shall review, each year, the cost of operation of the
15Currency Exchange Section and the revenue generated from
16currency exchange examinations and report to the General
17Assembly if the need exists for an increase in the fees
18mandated by this Act to maintain the Currency Exchange Section
19at a fiscally self-sufficient level. The Secretary shall
20include in such report the total amount of funds remitted to
21the State and delivered to the State Treasurer by currency
22exchanges pursuant to the Revised Uniform Disposition of
23Unclaimed Property Act.
24 (B) The Secretary shall, by rules adopted in accordance
25with the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, expeditiously
26formulate and issue schedules of reasonable maximum rates which

HB0321- 187 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1can be charged for check cashing and writing of money orders by
2community currency exchanges and ambulatory currency
3exchanges.
4 (1) In determining the maximum rate schedules for the
5 purposes of this Section the Secretary shall take into
6 account:
7 (a) Rates charged in the past for the cashing of
8 checks and the issuance of money orders by community
9 and ambulatory currency exchanges.
10 (b) Rates charged by banks or other business
11 entities for rendering the same or similar services and
12 the factors upon which those rates are based.
13 (c) The income, cost and expense of the operation
14 of currency exchanges.
15 (d) Rates charged by currency exchanges or other
16 similar entities located in other states for the same
17 or similar services and the factors upon which those
18 rates are based.
19 (e) Rates charged by the United States Postal
20 Service for the issuing of money orders and the factors
21 upon which those rates are based.
22 (f) A reasonable profit for a currency exchange
23 operation.
24 (2)(a) The schedule of reasonable maximum rates
25 established pursuant to this Section may be modified by the
26 Secretary from time to time pursuant to rules adopted in

HB0321- 188 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 accordance with the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.
2 (b) Upon the filing of a verified petition setting
3 forth allegations demonstrating reasonable cause to
4 believe that the schedule of maximum rates previously
5 issued and promulgated should be adjusted, the Secretary
6 shall expeditiously:
7 (i) reject the petition if it fails to demonstrate
8 reasonable cause to believe that an adjustment is
9 necessary; or
10 (ii) conduct such hearings, in accordance with
11 this Section, as may be necessary to determine whether
12 the petition should be granted in whole or in part.
13 (c) No petition may be filed pursuant to subparagraph
14 (a) of paragraph (2) of subsection (B) unless:
15 (i) at least nine months have expired since the
16 last promulgation of schedules of maximum rates; and
17 (ii) at least one-fourth of all community currency
18 exchange licensees join in a petition or, in the case
19 of ambulatory currency exchanges, a licensee or
20 licensees authorized to serve at least 100 locations
21 join in a petition.

1 (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 100-704)
2 Sec. 19.3. (A) The General Assembly hereby finds and
3declares: community currency exchanges and ambulatory currency
4exchanges provide important and vital services to Illinois
5citizens. In so doing, they transact extensive business
6involving check cashing and the writing of money orders in
7communities in which banking services are generally
8unavailable. Customers of currency exchanges who receive these
9services must be protected from being charged unreasonable and
10unconscionable rates for cashing checks and purchasing money
11orders. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional
12Regulation has the responsibility for regulating the
13operations of currency exchanges and has the expertise to
14determine reasonable maximum rates to be charged for check
15cashing and money order purchases. Therefore, it is in the
16public interest, convenience, welfare and good to have the
17Department establish reasonable maximum rate schedules for
18check cashing and the issuance of money orders and to require
19community and ambulatory currency exchanges to prominently
20display to the public the fees charged for all services. The
21Secretary shall review, each year, the cost of operation of the
22Currency Exchange Section and the revenue generated from
23currency exchange examinations and report to the General
24Assembly if the need exists for an increase in the fees
25mandated by this Act to maintain the Currency Exchange Section
26at a fiscally self-sufficient level. The Secretary shall

HB0321- 190 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1include in such report the total amount of funds remitted to
2the State and delivered to the State Treasurer by currency
3exchanges pursuant to the Revised Uniform Disposition of
4Unclaimed Property Act.
5 (B) The Secretary shall, by rules adopted in accordance
6with the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, expeditiously
7formulate and issue schedules of reasonable maximum rates which
8can be charged for check cashing and writing of money orders by
9community currency exchanges and ambulatory currency
10exchanges.
11 (1) In determining the maximum rate schedules for the
12 purposes of this Section the Secretary shall take into
13 account:
14 (a) Rates charged in the past for the cashing of
15 checks and the issuance of money orders by community
16 and ambulatory currency exchanges.
17 (b) Rates charged by banks or other business
18 entities for rendering the same or similar services and
19 the factors upon which those rates are based.
20 (c) The income, cost and expense of the operation
21 of currency exchanges.
22 (d) Rates charged by currency exchanges or other
23 similar entities located in other states for the same
24 or similar services and the factors upon which those
25 rates are based.
26 (e) Rates charged by the United States Postal

HB0321- 191 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Service for the issuing of money orders and the factors
2 upon which those rates are based.
3 (f) A reasonable profit for a currency exchange
4 operation.
5 (g) The impact on consumers.
6 (h) Whether the rate schedule will
7 disproportionately impact anyone on the basis of any
8 protected characteristic or category listed in
9 subsection (Q) of Section 1-103 of the Illinois Human
10 Rights Act as those terms are defined in that Section.
11 (2)(a) The schedule of reasonable maximum rates
12 established pursuant to this Section may be modified by the
13 Secretary from time to time pursuant to rules adopted in
14 accordance with the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.
15 (b) Upon the filing of a verified petition setting
16 forth allegations demonstrating reasonable cause to
17 believe that the schedule of maximum rates previously
18 issued and promulgated should be adjusted, the Secretary
19 shall expeditiously:
20 (i) reject the petition if it fails to demonstrate
21 reasonable cause to believe that an adjustment is
22 necessary; or
23 (ii) conduct such hearings, in accordance with
24 this Section, as may be necessary to determine whether
25 the petition should be granted in whole or in part.
26 (c) No petition may be filed pursuant to subparagraph

HB0321- 192 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (a) of paragraph (2) of subsection (B) unless:
2 (i) at least nine months have expired since the
3 last promulgation of schedules of maximum rates; and
4 (ii) at least one-fourth of all community currency
5 exchange licensees join in a petition or, in the case
6 of ambulatory currency exchanges, a licensee or
7 licensees authorized to serve at least 100 locations
8 join in a petition.
9 (3) Any currency exchange may charge lower fees than
10 those of the applicable maximum fee schedule after filing
11 with the Secretary a schedule of fees it proposes to use.

15exceeds $1,000,000, the applicant or licensee may, in the
16alternative, post a bond in the amount of $1,000,000 plus a
17dollar for dollar increase in the net worth of the applicant or
18licensee over and above the amount required in Section 20, up

21and shall run to the State of Illinois for the benefit of any
22claimant against the applicant or licensee with respect to the
23receipt, handling, transmission, and payment of money by the
24licensee or authorized seller in connection with the licensed

HB0321- 194 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1operations. A claimant damaged by a breach of the conditions of
2a bond shall have a right to action upon the bond for damages
3suffered thereby and may bring suit directly on the bond, or

13insurance, annuity, or retained asset agreement death

16 (215 ILCS 185/15)
17 Sec. 15. Insurer conduct.
18 (a) An insurer shall initially perform a comparison of its
19insureds', annuitants', and retained asset account holders'
20in-force policies, annuity contracts, and retained asset
21accounts in force on or after January 1, 2017 by using the full
22Death Master File. The initial comparison shall be completed on
23or before December 31, 2017. An insurer required to perform a

HB0321- 199 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1comparison of its insureds', annuitants', and retained asset
2account holders' in-force policies, annuity contracts, and
3retained asset accounts in force on or after January 1, 2012
4shall perform a comparison of policies, annuity contracts, and
5retained asset accounts in force between January 1, 2012 and
6December 31, 2016 on or before December 31, 2018 by using the
7full Death Master File. An insurer required to perform a
8comparison of electronic searchable files concerning its
9insureds', annuitants', and retained asset account holders'
10in-force policies, annuity contracts, and retained asset
11accounts in force on or after January 1, 2000 shall perform a
12comparison of policies, annuity contracts, and retained asset
13accounts in force between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2016
14on or before December 31, 2018 by using the full Death Master
15File. Thereafter, an insurer shall perform a comparison on at
16least a semi-annual basis using the Death Master File update
17files for comparisons to identify potential matches of its
18insureds, annuitants, and retained asset account holders. In
19the event that one of the insurer's lines of business conducts
20a search for matches of its insureds, annuitants, and retained
21asset account holders against the Death Master File at
22intervals more frequently than semi-annually, then all lines of
23the insurer's business shall conduct searches for matches
24against the Death Master File with the same frequency. Within 6
25months after acquisition of policies, annuity contracts, or
26retained asset accounts from another insurer, the acquiring

HB0321- 200 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1insurer shall compare all newly acquired policies, annuity
2contracts, and retained asset accounts that were not searched
3by the previous insurer in compliance with this Act against the
4complete Death Master File to identify potential matches of its
5insureds, annuitants, and retained asset account holders. Upon
6any subsequent acquisition of policies, annuity contracts, or
7retained asset accounts from another insurer, when the previous
8insurer has already conducted a search of the newly acquired
9policies, annuity contracts, and retained asset accounts using
10the complete Death Master File, the acquiring insurer shall
11compare all newly acquired policies, annuity contracts, and
12retained asset accounts using all of the Death Master File
13updates since the time the previous insurer conducted the
14complete search to identify potential matches of its insureds,
15annuitants, and retained asset account holders.
16 An insured, an annuitant, or a retained asset account
17holder is presumed dead if the date of his or her death is
18indicated by the comparison required in this subsection (a),
19unless the insurer has competent and substantial evidence that
20the person is living, including, but not limited to, a contact
21made by the insurer with the person or his or her legal
22representative.
23 For those potential matches identified as a result of a
24Death Master File match, the insurer shall within 120 days
25after the date of death notice, if the insurer has not been
26contacted by a beneficiary, determine whether benefits are due

HB0321- 201 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1in accordance with the applicable policy or contract and, if
2benefits are due in accordance with the applicable policy or
3contract:
4 (1) use good faith efforts, which shall be documented
5 by the insurer, to locate the beneficiary or beneficiaries;
6 the Department shall establish by administrative rule
7 minimum standards for what constitutes good faith efforts
8 to locate a beneficiary, which shall include: (A) searching
9 insurer records; (B) the appropriate use of First Class
10 United States mail, e-mail addresses, and telephone calls;
11 and (C) reasonable efforts by insurers to obtain updated
12 contact information for the beneficiary or beneficiaries;
13 good faith efforts shall not include additional attempts to
14 contact the beneficiary at an address already confirmed not
15 to be current; and
16 (2) provide the appropriate claims forms or
17 instructions to the beneficiary or beneficiaries to make a
18 claim, including the need to provide an official death
19 certificate if applicable under the policy or annuity
20 contract.
21 (b) Insurers shall implement procedures to account for the
22following when conducting searches of the Death Master File:
23 (1) common nicknames, initials used in lieu of a first
24 or middle name, use of a middle name, compound first and
25 middle names, and interchanged first and middle names;
26 (2) compound last names, maiden or married names, and

HB0321- 202 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 hyphens, blank spaces, or apostrophes in last names;
2 (3) transposition of the "month" and "date" portions of
3 the date of birth; and
4 (4) incomplete social security numbers.
5 (c) To the extent permitted by law, an insurer may disclose
6the minimum necessary personal information about the insured,
7annuity owner, retained asset account holder, or beneficiary to
8a person whom the insurer reasonably believes may be able to
9assist the insurer with locating the beneficiary or a person
10otherwise entitled to payment of the claims proceeds.
11 (d) An insurer or its service provider shall not charge any
12beneficiary or other authorized representative for any fees or
13costs associated with a Death Master File search or
14verification of a Death Master File match conducted pursuant to
15this Act.
16 (e) The benefits from a policy, annuity contract, or a
17retained asset account, plus any applicable accrued interest,
18shall first be payable to the designated beneficiaries or
19owners and, in the event the beneficiaries or owners cannot be
20found, shall be reported and delivered to the State Treasurer
21pursuant to the Revised Uniform Disposition of Unclaimed
22Property Act. Nothing in this subsection (e) is intended to
23alter the amounts reportable under the existing provisions of
24the Revised Uniform Disposition of Unclaimed Property Act or to
25allow the imposition of additional statutory interest under
26Article XIV of the Illinois Insurance Code.

HB0321- 203 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (f) Failure to meet any requirement of this Section with
2such frequency as to constitute a general business practice is
3a violation of Section 424 of the Illinois Insurance Code.
4Nothing in this Section shall be construed to create or imply a
5private cause of action for a violation of this Section.

17shall have his or her license suspended immediately, pending a
18hearing by the Department.
19 In instances in which the Secretary immediately suspends a
20person's license under this Section, a hearing on that person's
21license must be convened by the Department within 30 days after
22the suspension and completed without appreciable delay. The
23Department and Board shall have the authority to review the

9 For purposes of inheritance, the changes made by this
10amendatory Act of 1998 apply to all decedents who die on or
11after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998. For
12the purpose of determining the property rights of any person
13under any instrument, the changes made by this amendatory Act
14of 1998 apply to all instruments executed on or after the
15effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998.
16 A child born out of wedlock is heir of his mother and of
17any maternal ancestor and of any person from whom his mother
18might have inherited, if living; and the descendants of a
19person who was a child born out of wedlock shall represent such
20person and take by descent any estate which the parent would
21have taken, if living. If a decedent has acknowledged paternity
22of a child born out of wedlock or if during his lifetime or
23after his death a decedent has been adjudged to be the father
24of a child born out of wedlock, that person is heir of his
25father and of any paternal ancestor and of any person from whom
26his father might have inherited, if living; and the descendants

HB0321- 225 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1of a person who was a child born out of wedlock shall represent
2that person and take by descent any estate which the parent
3would have taken, if living. If during his lifetime the
4decedent was adjudged to be the father of a child born out of
5wedlock by a court of competent jurisdiction, an authenticated
6copy of the judgment is sufficient proof of the paternity; but
7in all other cases paternity must be proved by clear and
8convincing evidence. A person who was a child born out of
9wedlock whose parents intermarry and who is acknowledged by the
10father as the father's child is a lawful child of the father.

11 (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit
12against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for
13investment in qualified property.
14 (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
15 of the basis of qualified property placed in service during
16 the taxable year, provided such property is placed in
17 service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed an
18 additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of qualified
19 property placed in service during the taxable year,
20 provided such property is placed in service on or after
21 July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment within
22 Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the preceding
23 year as determined by the taxpayer's employment records
24 filed with the Illinois Department of Employment Security.
25 Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be deemed to have
26 met the 1% growth in base employment for the first year in

HB0321- 238 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 which they file employment records with the Illinois
2 Department of Employment Security. The provisions added to
3 this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored by Public
4 Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of existing
5 law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year, the
6 increase in base employment within Illinois over the
7 preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit shall
8 be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the
9 numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
10 1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
11 not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
12 taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
13 any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
14 other than the year in which the property was placed in
15 service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
16 December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
17 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
18 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
19 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
20 exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
21 amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
22 the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
23 excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
24 which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
25 equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
26 enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois

HB0321- 239 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
2 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
3 Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
4 complying with the requirements specified in clause (i) and
5 (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
6 Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic
7 Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
8 such certifications immediately. For tax years ending
9 after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
10 the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
11 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
12 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability or
13 the liability as later amended, such excess may be carried
14 forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable
15 years following the excess credit years. The credit shall
16 be applied to the earliest year for which there is a
17 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
18 that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit
19 shall be applied first.
20 (2) The term "qualified property" means property
21 which:
22 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
23 buildings and structural components of buildings and
24 signs that are real property, but not including land or
25 improvements to real property that are not a structural
26 component of a building such as landscaping, sewer

HB0321- 240 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 lines, local access roads, fencing, parking lots, and
2 other appurtenances;
3 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
4 Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
5 as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
6 eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
7 (e);
8 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
9 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
10 (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
11 primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining coal
12 or fluorite, or in retailing, or was placed in service
13 on or after July 1, 2006 in a River Edge Redevelopment
14 Zone established pursuant to the River Edge
15 Redevelopment Zone Act; and
16 (E) has not previously been used in Illinois in
17 such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
18 the credit provided by this subsection (e) or
19 subsection (f).
20 (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
21 "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
22 of tangible personal property by procedures commonly
23 regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or
24 assembling which changes some existing material into new
25 shapes, new qualities, or new combinations. For purposes of
26 this subsection (e) the term "mining" shall have the same

HB0321- 241 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 meaning as the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of the
2 Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of this subsection (e),
3 the term "retailing" means the sale of tangible personal
4 property for use or consumption and not for resale, or
5 services rendered in conjunction with the sale of tangible
6 personal property for use or consumption and not for
7 resale. For purposes of this subsection (e), "tangible
8 personal property" has the same meaning as when that term
9 is used in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, and, for
10 taxable years ending after December 31, 2008, does not
11 include the generation, transmission, or distribution of
12 electricity.
13 (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
14 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
15 income tax purposes.
16 (5) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
17 depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
18 in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of such
19 increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
20 date of such increase in basis.
21 (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
22 meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
23 (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
24 be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
25 48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
26 any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48

HB0321- 242 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 months after being placed in service, the Personal Property
2 Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year shall be
3 increased. Such increase shall be determined by (i)
4 recomputing the investment credit which would have been
5 allowed for the year in which credit for such property was
6 originally allowed by eliminating such property from such
7 computation and, (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
8 from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
9 purposes of this paragraph (7), a reduction of the basis of
10 qualified property resulting from a redetermination of the
11 purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of qualified
12 property to the extent of such reduction.
13 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
14 the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
15 incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs incurred

21 subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may use the
22 credit allocated to him or her under this paragraph only
23 against the tax imposed in subsections (c) and (d) of this
24 Section. If the partnership makes that election, those
25 credits shall be allocated among the partners in the
26 partnership in accordance with the rules set forth in

HB0321- 243 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules
2 promulgated under that Section, and the allocated amount of
3 the credits shall be allowed to the partners for that
4 taxable year. The partnership shall make this election on
5 its Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax return for
6 that taxable year. The election to pass through the credits
7 shall be irrevocable.
8 For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2000,
9 a partner that qualifies its partnership for a subtraction
10 under subparagraph (I) of paragraph (2) of subsection (d)
11 of Section 203 or a shareholder that qualifies a Subchapter
12 S corporation for a subtraction under subparagraph (S) of
13 paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 203 shall be
14 allowed a credit under this subsection (e) equal to its
15 share of the credit earned under this subsection (e) during
16 the taxable year by the partnership or Subchapter S
17 corporation, determined in accordance with the
18 determination of income and distributive share of income
19 under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal

26 investment in qualified property which is placed in service

HB0321- 244 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 in an Enterprise Zone created pursuant to the Illinois
2 Enterprise Zone Act or, for property placed in service on
3 or after July 1, 2006, a River Edge Redevelopment Zone
4 established pursuant to the River Edge Redevelopment Zone
5 Act. For partners, shareholders of Subchapter S
6 corporations, and owners of limited liability companies,
7 if the liability company is treated as a partnership for
8 purposes of federal and State income taxation, there shall
9 be allowed a credit under this subsection (f) to be
10 determined in accordance with the determination of income
11 and distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
12 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. The credit
13 shall be .5% of the basis for such property. The credit
14 shall be available only in the taxable year in which the
15 property is placed in service in the Enterprise Zone or
16 River Edge Redevelopment Zone and shall not be allowed to
17 the extent that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability for
18 the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section
19 to below zero. For tax years ending on or after December
20 31, 1985, the credit shall be allowed for the tax year in
21 which the property is placed in service, or, if the amount
22 of the credit exceeds the tax liability for that year,
23 whether it exceeds the original liability or the liability
24 as later amended, such excess may be carried forward and
25 applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years
26 following the excess credit year. The credit shall be

HB0321- 245 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 applied to the earliest year for which there is a
2 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
3 that is available to offset a liability, the credit
4 accruing first in time shall be applied first.
5 (2) The term qualified property means property which:
6 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
7 buildings and structural components of buildings;
8 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
9 Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
10 as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
11 eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
12 (f);
13 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
14 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
15 (D) is used in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge
16 Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer; and
17 (E) has not been previously used in Illinois in
18 such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
19 the credit provided by this subsection (f) or
20 subsection (e).
21 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
22 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
23 income tax purposes.
24 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
25 depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
26 in service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge

HB0321- 246 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer, the amount of such
2 increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
3 date of such increase in basis.
4 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
5 meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
6 (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
7 be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
8 48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
9 any qualified property is moved outside the Enterprise Zone
10 or River Edge Redevelopment Zone within 48 months after
11 being placed in service, the tax imposed under subsections
12 (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable year shall be
13 increased. Such increase shall be determined by (i)
14 recomputing the investment credit which would have been
15 allowed for the year in which credit for such property was
16 originally allowed by eliminating such property from such
17 computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
18 from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
19 purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis of
20 qualified property resulting from a redetermination of the
21 purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of qualified
22 property to the extent of such reduction.
23 (7) There shall be allowed an additional credit equal
24 to 0.5% of the basis of qualified property placed in
25 service during the taxable year in a River Edge
26 Redevelopment Zone, provided such property is placed in

HB0321- 247 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 service on or after July 1, 2006, and the taxpayer's base
2 employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over
3 the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
4 employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
5 Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
6 shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base
7 employment for the first year in which they file employment
8 records with the Illinois Department of Employment
9 Security. If, in any year, the increase in base employment
10 within Illinois over the preceding year is less than 1%,
11 the additional credit shall be limited to that percentage
12 times a fraction, the numerator of which is 0.5% and the
13 denominator of which is 1%, but shall not exceed 0.5%.

19 and (b) of this Section for investment in qualified
20 property which is placed in service by a Department of
21 Commerce and Economic Opportunity designated High Impact
22 Business. The credit shall be .5% of the basis for such
23 property. The credit shall not be available (i) until the
24 minimum investments in qualified property set forth in
25 subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois
26 Enterprise Zone Act have been satisfied or (ii) until the

HB0321- 248 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 time authorized in subsection (b-5) of the Illinois
2 Enterprise Zone Act for entities designated as High Impact
3 Businesses under subdivisions (a)(3)(B), (a)(3)(C), and
4 (a)(3)(D) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone
5 Act, and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would
6 reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by
7 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. The
8 credit applicable to such investments shall be taken in the
9 taxable year in which such investments have been completed.
10 The credit for additional investments beyond the minimum
11 investment by a designated high impact business authorized
12 under subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois
13 Enterprise Zone Act shall be available only in the taxable
14 year in which the property is placed in service and shall
15 not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
16 taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by subsections (a)
17 and (b) of this Section to below zero. For tax years ending
18 on or after December 31, 1987, the credit shall be allowed
19 for the tax year in which the property is placed in
20 service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax
21 liability for that year, whether it exceeds the original
22 liability or the liability as later amended, such excess
23 may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of
24 the 5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The
25 credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
26 there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one

HB0321- 249 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 tax year that is available to offset a liability, the
2 credit accruing first in time shall be applied first.
3 Changes made in this subdivision (h)(1) by Public Act
4 88-670 restore changes made by Public Act 85-1182 and
5 reflect existing law.
6 (2) The term qualified property means property which:
7 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
8 buildings and structural components of buildings;
9 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
10 Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
11 as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
12 eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
13 (h);
14 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
15 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and
16 (D) is not eligible for the Enterprise Zone
17 Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this
18 Section.
19 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
20 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
21 income tax purposes.
22 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
23 depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
24 in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or
25 Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of
26 such increase shall be deemed property placed in service on

HB0321- 250 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 the date of such increase in basis.
2 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
3 meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
4 (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before
5 December 31, 1996, any property ceases to be qualified
6 property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months
7 after being placed in service, or the situs of any
8 qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
9 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed under
10 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable
11 year shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined
12 by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
13 been allowed for the year in which credit for such property
14 was originally allowed by eliminating such property from
15 such computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed
16 credit from the amount of credit previously allowed. For
17 the purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the
18 basis of qualified property resulting from a
19 redetermination of the purchase price shall be deemed a
20 disposition of qualified property to the extent of such
21 reduction.
22 (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December 31,
23 1996, if a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under this
24 subsection (h) and thereby is granted a tax abatement and
25 the taxpayer relocates its entire facility in violation of
26 the explicit terms and length of the contract under Section

HB0321- 251 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 18-183 of the Property Tax Code, the tax imposed under
2 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section shall be increased
3 for the taxable year in which the taxpayer relocated its
4 facility by an amount equal to the amount of credit
5 received by the taxpayer under this subsection (h).
6 (i) Credit for Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
7Tax. For tax years ending prior to December 31, 2003, a credit
8shall be allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and
9(b) of this Section for the tax imposed by subsections (c) and
10(d) of this Section. This credit shall be computed by
11multiplying the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
12Section by a fraction, the numerator of which is base income
13allocable to Illinois and the denominator of which is Illinois
14base income, and further multiplying the product by the tax
15rate imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.
16 Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under this
17subsection which is unused in the year the credit is computed
18because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by subsections (a)
19and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the original
20liability or the liability as later amended) may be carried
21forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by subsections
22(a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the excess credit
23year, provided that no credit may be carried forward to any
24year ending on or after December 31, 2003. This credit shall be
25applied first to the earliest year for which there is a
26liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from more

HB0321- 252 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1than one tax year that is available to offset a liability the
2earliest credit arising under this subsection shall be applied
3first.
4 If, during any taxable year ending on or after December 31,
51986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
6Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this
7subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax
8shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by
9recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax
10imposed by subsections (c) and (d). If any portion of the
11reduced amount of credit has been carried to a different
12taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such taxable
13year to reduce the amount of credit claimed.
14 (j) Training expense credit. Beginning with tax years
15ending on or after December 31, 1986 and prior to December 31,
162003, a taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax

18amounts paid or accrued, on behalf of all persons employed by
19the taxpayer in Illinois or Illinois residents employed outside
20of Illinois by a taxpayer, for educational or vocational
21training in semi-technical or technical fields or semi-skilled
22or skilled fields, which were deducted from gross income in the
23computation of taxable income. The credit against the tax
24imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 1.6% of such
25training expenses. For partners, shareholders of subchapter S
26corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if the

HB0321- 253 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes of
2federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
3credit under this subsection (j) to be determined in accordance
4with the determination of income and distributive share of
5income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the
6Internal Revenue Code.
7 Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused in
8the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to each of
9the 5 taxable years following the year for which the credit is
10first computed until it is used. This credit shall be applied
11first to the earliest year for which there is a liability. If
12there is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax
13year that is available to offset a liability the earliest
14credit arising under this subsection shall be applied first. No
15carryforward credit may be claimed in any tax year ending on or
16after December 31, 2003.
17 (k) Research and development credit. For tax years ending
18after July 1, 1990 and prior to December 31, 2003, and
19beginning again for tax years ending on or after December 31,
202004, and ending prior to January 1, 2019 January 1, 2022, a
21taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by
22subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for increasing research
23activities in this State. The credit allowed against the tax
24imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be equal to 6 1/2% of
25the qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities
26in this State. For partners, shareholders of subchapter S

HB0321- 254 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if the
2liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes of
3federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
4credit under this subsection to be determined in accordance
5with the determination of income and distributive share of
6income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the
7Internal Revenue Code.
8 For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying expenditures"
9means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
10credit for increasing research activities which would be
11allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
12which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures for
13increasing research activities in this State" means the excess
14of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in which
15incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base period,
16"qualifying expenditures for the base period" means the average
17of the qualifying expenditures for each year in the base
18period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years immediately
19preceding the taxable year for which the determination is being
20made.
21 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
22year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
23unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
24as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
25taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever occurs
26first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year ending

HB0321- 255 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any year
2ending on or after December 31, 2003.
3 If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
42 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
5year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
6given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
7remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be
8applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
9liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
10credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
11following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
12that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
13than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
14credit is given was incurred.
15 No inference shall be drawn from this amendatory Act of the
1691st General Assembly in construing this Section for taxable
17years beginning before January 1, 1999.
18 It is the intent of the General Assembly that the research
19and development credit under this subsection (k) shall apply
20continuously for all tax years ending on or after December 31,
212004 and ending prior to January 1, 2022, including, but not
22limited to, the period beginning on January 1, 2016 and ending
23on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 100th
24General Assembly. All actions taken in reliance on the
25continuation of the credit under this subsection (k) by any
26taxpayer are hereby validated.

HB0321- 256 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (l) Environmental Remediation Tax Credit.
2 (i) For tax years ending after December 31, 1997 and on
3 or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be allowed a
4 credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)
5 of this Section for certain amounts paid for unreimbursed
6 eligible remediation costs, as specified in this
7 subsection. For purposes of this Section, "unreimbursed
8 eligible remediation costs" means costs approved by the
9 Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Agency") under
10 Section 58.14 of the Environmental Protection Act that were
11 paid in performing environmental remediation at a site for
12 which a No Further Remediation Letter was issued by the
13 Agency and recorded under Section 58.10 of the
14 Environmental Protection Act. The credit must be claimed
15 for the taxable year in which Agency approval of the
16 eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit is not
17 available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any related
18 party caused or contributed to, in any material respect, a
19 release of regulated substances on, in, or under the site
20 that was identified and addressed by the remedial action
21 pursuant to the Site Remediation Program of the
22 Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution Control
23 Board rules are adopted pursuant to the Illinois
24 Administrative Procedure Act for the administration and
25 enforcement of Section 58.9 of the Environmental
26 Protection Act, determinations as to credit availability

HB0321- 257 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 for purposes of this Section shall be made consistent with
2 those rules. For purposes of this Section, "taxpayer"
3 includes a person whose tax attributes the taxpayer has
4 succeeded to under Section 381 of the Internal Revenue Code
5 and "related party" includes the persons disallowed a
6 deduction for losses by paragraphs (b), (c), and (f)(1) of
7 Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of being
8 a related taxpayer, as well as any of its partners. The
9 credit allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
10 and (b) shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible
11 remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site, except
12 that the $100,000 threshold shall not apply to any site
13 contained in an enterprise zone as determined by the
14 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
15 Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
16 total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year with
17 a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners and
18 shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall be
19 allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined in
20 accordance with the determination of income and
21 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704 and
22 subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
23 (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
24 unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
25 forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
26 for which the credit is first earned until it is used. The

HB0321- 258 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 term "unused credit" does not include any amounts of
2 unreimbursed eligible remediation costs in excess of the
3 maximum credit per site authorized under paragraph (i).
4 This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year for
5 which there is a liability. If there is a credit under this
6 subsection from more than one tax year that is available to
7 offset a liability, the earliest credit arising under this
8 subsection shall be applied first. A credit allowed under
9 this subsection may be sold to a buyer as part of a sale of
10 all or part of the remediation site for which the credit
11 was granted. The purchaser of a remediation site and the
12 tax credit shall succeed to the unused credit and remaining
13 carry-forward period of the seller. To perfect the
14 transfer, the assignor shall record the transfer in the
15 chain of title for the site and provide written notice to
16 the Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue of the
17 assignor's intent to sell the remediation site and the
18 amount of the tax credit to be transferred as a portion of
19 the sale. In no event may a credit be transferred to any
20 taxpayer if the taxpayer or a related party would not be
21 eligible under the provisions of subsection (i).
22 (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
23 shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
24 Environmental Protection Act.
25 (m) Education expense credit. Beginning with tax years
26ending after December 31, 1999, a taxpayer who is the custodian

HB0321- 259 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1of one or more qualifying pupils shall be allowed a credit
2against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this
3Section for qualified education expenses incurred on behalf of
4the qualifying pupils. The credit shall be equal to 25% of
5qualified education expenses, but in no event may the total

4 be claimed for the taxable year in which Agency approval of
5 the eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit is
6 not available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any
7 related party caused or contributed to, in any material
8 respect, a release of regulated substances on, in, or under
9 the site that was identified and addressed by the remedial
10 action pursuant to the Site Remediation Program of the

1 (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
2 unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
3 forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
4 for which the credit is first earned until it is used. This
5 credit shall be applied first to the earliest year for
6 which there is a liability. If there is a credit under this
7 subsection from more than one tax year that is available to
8 offset a liability, the earliest credit arising under this
9 subsection shall be applied first. A credit allowed under
10 this subsection may be sold to a buyer as part of a sale of
11 all or part of the remediation site for which the credit
12 was granted. The purchaser of a remediation site and the
13 tax credit shall succeed to the unused credit and remaining
14 carry-forward period of the seller. To perfect the
15 transfer, the assignor shall record the transfer in the
16 chain of title for the site and provide written notice to
17 the Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue of the
18 assignor's intent to sell the remediation site and the

20 the sale. In no event may a credit be transferred to any
21 taxpayer if the taxpayer or a related party would not be
22 eligible under the provisions of subsection (i).
23 (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
24 shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the

26 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the

HB0321- 268 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
2 required to apportion business income under different
3 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
4 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
5 extent that dividends were included in base income of
6 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

23 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
24 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
25 following:
26 (a) the person, during the same taxable

HB0321- 269 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
2 to a person that is not a related member, and
3 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
4 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
5 person did not have as a principal purpose the
6 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
7 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
8 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
9 terms; or
10 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
11 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
12 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
13 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
14 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
15 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
16 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
17 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
18 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
19 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
20 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
21 to the application or use of an alternative method
22 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
23 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
24 Director from making any other adjustment
25 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
26 any tax year beginning after the effective date of

HB0321- 270 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
2 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
3 and such regulations provide methods and standards
4 by which the Department will utilize its authority
5 under Section 404 of this Act;
6 (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
7 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
8 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
9 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
10 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
11 foreign person who would be a member of the same
12 unitary business group but for the fact that the
13 foreign person's business activity outside the United
14 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
15 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
16 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
17 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
18 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
19 from being included in the unitary business group
20 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
21 business income under different subsections of Section
22 304. The addition modification required by this
23 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
24 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
25 group for the same taxable year and received by the

2 income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
3 Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under
4 Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect
5 to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible
6 expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid,
7 incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not
8 apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a
9 reduction to the addition modification required under
10 Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this
11 subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs"
12 includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or
13 related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use,
14 maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange,
15 or any other disposition of intangible property; (2)
16 losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from
17 factoring transactions or discounting transactions;
18 (3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees;
19 (4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and
20 costs. For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible
21 property" includes patents, patent applications, trade
22 names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask
23 works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible
24 assets.
25 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
26 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs

HB0321- 272 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
2 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
3 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
4 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
5 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
6 to such item; or
7 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
8 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
9 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
10 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
11 following:
12 (a) the person during the same taxable
13 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
14 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
15 not a related member, and
16 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
17 intangible expense or cost between the
18 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
19 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
20 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
21 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
22 or
23 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
24 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
25 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
26 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing

HB0321- 273 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
2 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
3 writing to the application or use of an alternative
4 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
5 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
6 Director from making any other adjustment
7 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
8 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
9 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
10 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
11 and such regulations provide methods and standards
12 by which the Department will utilize its authority
13 under Section 404 of this Act;
14 (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
15 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
16 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
17 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
18 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
19 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
20 business group but for the fact that the person is
21 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
22 included in the unitary business group because he or
23 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
24 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
25 addition modification required by this subparagraph
26 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were

HB0321- 274 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 included in base income of the unitary group for the
2 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
3 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
4 (including amounts included in gross income under
5 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
6 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
7 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
8 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
9 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
10 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
11 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
12 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) or
13 Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this Act.

19 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
20 required to apportion business income under different
21 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
22 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
23 extent that dividends were included in base income of
24 the unitary group for the same taxable year and
25 received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
26 taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts

HB0321- 297 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951
2 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts
3 included in gross income under Section 78 of the
4 Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the
5 same person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or
6 incurred.
7 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
8 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
9 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
10 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
11 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
12 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
13 with respect to such interest; or
14 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
15 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
16 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
17 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
18 following:
19 (a) the person, during the same taxable
20 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
21 to a person that is not a related member, and
22 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
23 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
24 person did not have as a principal purpose the
25 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
26 pursuant to a contract or agreement that

HB0321- 298 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
2 terms; or
3 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
4 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
5 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
6 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
7 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
8 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
9 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
10 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
11 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
12 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
13 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
14 to the application or use of an alternative method
15 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
16 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
17 Director from making any other adjustment
18 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
19 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
20 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
21 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
22 and such regulations provide methods and standards
23 by which the Department will utilize its authority
24 under Section 404 of this Act;
25 (E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
26 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in

HB0321- 299 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
2 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
3 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
4 foreign person who would be a member of the same
5 unitary business group but for the fact that the
6 foreign person's business activity outside the United
7 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
8 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
9 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
10 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
11 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
12 from being included in the unitary business group
13 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
14 business income under different subsections of Section
15 304. The addition modification required by this
16 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
17 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
18 group for the same taxable year and received by the
19 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
20 business group (including amounts included in gross
21 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
22 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
23 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
24 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
25 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
26 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding

HB0321- 300 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
2 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
3 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
4 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
5 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
6 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
7 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
8 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
9 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
10 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
11 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
12 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
13 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
14 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
15 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
16 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
17 similar types of intangible assets.
18 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
19 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
20 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
21 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
22 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
23 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
24 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
25 to such item; or
26 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost

HB0321- 301 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
2 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
3 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
4 following:
5 (a) the person during the same taxable
6 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
7 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
8 not a related member, and
9 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
10 intangible expense or cost between the
11 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
12 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
13 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
14 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
15 or
16 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
17 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
18 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
19 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
20 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
21 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
22 writing to the application or use of an alternative
23 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
24 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
25 Director from making any other adjustment
26 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for

HB0321- 302 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
2 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
3 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
4 and such regulations provide methods and standards
5 by which the Department will utilize its authority
6 under Section 404 of this Act;
7 (E-14) For taxable years ending on or after
8 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
9 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
10 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
11 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
12 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
13 business group but for the fact that the person is
14 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
15 included in the unitary business group because he or
16 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
17 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
18 addition modification required by this subparagraph
19 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
20 included in base income of the unitary group for the
21 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
22 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
23 (including amounts included in gross income under
24 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
25 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
26 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock

HB0321- 303 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
2 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
3 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
4 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
5 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) or
6 Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this Act;
7 (E-15) For taxable years beginning after December

10 taxable year under Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) for
11 intangible expenses and costs paid, accrued, or
12 incurred, directly or indirectly, to the same foreign
13 person. This subparagraph (X) is exempt from the

19 that part of a reimbursement received from the
20 insurance company equal to the amount of the expense or
21 loss (including expenses incurred by the insurance
22 company) that would have been taken into account as a
23 deduction for federal income tax purposes if the
24 expense or loss had been uninsured. If a taxpayer makes
25 the election provided for by this subparagraph (Y), the
26 insurer to which the premiums were paid must add back

HB0321- 316 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 to income the amount subtracted by the taxpayer
2 pursuant to this subparagraph (Y). This subparagraph

9 without regard to any net operating loss deduction.
10 This subparagraph (Z) is exempt from the provisions of
11 Section 250.

13 "gross income" in the case of a life insurance company, for
14 tax years ending on and after December 31, 1994, and prior
15 to December 31, 2011, shall mean the gross investment
16 income for the taxable year and, for tax years ending on or
17 after December 31, 2011, shall mean all amounts included in
18 life insurance gross income under Section 803(a)(3) of the

1 (1) shall be modified by adding thereto the sum of the
2 following amounts:

8 trust which, under its governing instrument, is

21 carryback or carryforward from a taxable year ending
22 prior to December 31, 1986 is an element of taxable
23 income under paragraph (1) of subsection (e) or
24 subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (e),
25 the amount by which addition modifications other than
26 those provided by this subparagraph (E) exceeded

HB0321- 318 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b

20 taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an
21 addition modification under subparagraph (G-10), then
22 an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the
23 deductions taken in all taxable years under

14 member of the same unitary business group but for the
15 fact that the foreign person's business activity
16 outside the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
17 person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
18 years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
19 who would be a member of the same unitary business
20 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
21 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
22 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
23 required to apportion business income under different
24 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
25 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
26 extent that dividends were included in base income of

HB0321- 321 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

10 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
11 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
12 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
13 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
14 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
15 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
16 with respect to such interest; or
17 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
18 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
19 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
20 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
21 following:
22 (a) the person, during the same taxable
23 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
24 to a person that is not a related member, and
25 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
26 interest expense between the taxpayer and the

HB0321- 322 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 person did not have as a principal purpose the
2 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
3 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
4 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
5 terms; or
6 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
7 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
8 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
9 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
10 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
11 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
12 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
13 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
14 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
15 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
16 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
17 to the application or use of an alternative method
18 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
19 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
20 Director from making any other adjustment
21 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
22 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
23 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
24 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
25 and such regulations provide methods and standards
26 by which the Department will utilize its authority

HB0321- 323 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 under Section 404 of this Act;
2 (G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
3 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
4 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
5 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
6 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
7 foreign person who would be a member of the same
8 unitary business group but for the fact that the
9 foreign person's business activity outside the United
10 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
11 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
12 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
13 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
14 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
15 from being included in the unitary business group
16 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
17 business income under different subsections of Section
18 304. The addition modification required by this
19 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
20 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
21 group for the same taxable year and received by the
22 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
23 business group (including amounts included in gross
24 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
25 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
26 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)

HB0321- 324 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
2 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
3 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
4 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
5 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
6 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of
7 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
8 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
9 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the
10 direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or
11 management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other
12 disposition of intangible property; (2) losses
13 incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring
14 transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty,
15 patent, technical, and copyright fees; (4) licensing
16 fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For
17 purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property"
18 includes patents, patent applications, trade names,
19 trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
20 trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
21 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
22 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
23 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
24 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
25 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
26 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,

HB0321- 325 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
2 to such item; or
3 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
4 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
5 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
6 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
7 following:
8 (a) the person during the same taxable
9 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
10 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
11 not a related member, and
12 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
13 intangible expense or cost between the
14 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
15 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
16 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
17 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
18 or
19 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
20 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
21 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
22 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
23 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
24 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
25 writing to the application or use of an alternative
26 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);

HB0321- 326 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
2 Director from making any other adjustment
3 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
4 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
5 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
6 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
7 and such regulations provide methods and standards
8 by which the Department will utilize its authority
9 under Section 404 of this Act;
10 (G-14) For taxable years ending on or after
11 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
12 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
13 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
14 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
15 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
16 business group but for the fact that the person is
17 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
18 included in the unitary business group because he or
19 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
20 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
21 addition modification required by this subparagraph
22 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
23 included in base income of the unitary group for the
24 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
25 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
26 (including amounts included in gross income under

HB0321- 327 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
2 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
3 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
4 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
5 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
6 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
7 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
8 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) or
9 Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this Act;
10 (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

19 who would be a member of the same unitary business
20 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
21 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
22 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
23 required to apportion business income under different
24 subsections of Section 304, but not to exceed the
25 addition modification required to be made for the same
26 taxable year under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) for

7 person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
8 years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
9 who would be a member of the same unitary business
10 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
11 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
12 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
13 required to apportion business income under different
14 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
15 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
16 extent that dividends were included in base income of
17 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

3 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
4 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
5 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
6 with respect to such interest; or
7 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
8 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
9 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
10 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
11 following:
12 (a) the person, during the same taxable
13 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
14 to a person that is not a related member, and
15 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
16 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
17 person did not have as a principal purpose the
18 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
19 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
20 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
21 terms; or
22 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
23 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
24 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
25 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
26 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is

HB0321- 341 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
2 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
3 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
4 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
5 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or

8 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
9 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
10 Director from making any other adjustment
11 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
12 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
13 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
14 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
15 and such regulations provide methods and standards
16 by which the Department will utilize its authority
17 under Section 404 of this Act; and
18 (D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
19 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
20 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
21 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
22 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
23 foreign person who would be a member of the same
24 unitary business group but for the fact that the
25 foreign person's business activity outside the United
26 States is 80% or more of that person's total business

HB0321- 342 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
2 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
3 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
4 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
5 from being included in the unitary business group
6 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
7 business income under different subsections of Section
8 304. The addition modification required by this
9 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
10 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
11 group for the same taxable year and received by the

16 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
17 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
18 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
19 indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
20 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
21 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
22 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
23 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
24 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
25 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
26 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,

HB0321- 343 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
2 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
3 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
4 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
5 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
6 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
7 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
8 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
9 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
10 similar types of intangible assets;
11 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
12 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
13 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
14 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
15 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
16 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
17 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
18 to such item; or
19 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
20 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
21 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
22 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
23 following:
24 (a) the person during the same taxable
25 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
26 intangible expense or cost to a person that is

HB0321- 344 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 not a related member, and
2 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
3 intangible expense or cost between the
4 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
5 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
6 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
7 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
8 or
9 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
10 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
11 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
12 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
13 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
14 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
15 writing to the application or use of an alternative
16 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
17 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
18 Director from making any other adjustment
19 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
20 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
21 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
22 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
23 and such regulations provide methods and standards
24 by which the Department will utilize its authority
25 under Section 404 of this Act;

HB0321- 345 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b

2 premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a
3 deduction in computing base income, and that were paid,
4 accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a
5 person who would be a member of the same unitary
6 business group but for the fact that the person is
7 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
8 included in the unitary business group because he or
9 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
10 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
11 addition modification required by this subparagraph
12 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
13 included in base income of the unitary group for the
14 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
15 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
16 (including amounts included in gross income under
17 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
18 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
19 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
20 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
21 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
22 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that

24 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) or
25 Section 203(d)(2)(D-8) of this Act;
26 (D-10) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

20 of the United States; provided that, in the case of any

16 for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to
17 December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount in
18 excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as
19 defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the

22 trust, or estate is less than zero and addition
23 modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph
24 (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or
25 subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for
26 trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an

HB0321- 355 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 addition modification must be made under those
2 subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the
3 taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is
4 applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or
5 under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection
6 (e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the Internal
7 Revenue Code.
8 (2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of this
9 subsection, the taxable income properly reportable for
10 federal income tax purposes shall mean:
11 (A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case
12 of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed
13 by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life
14 insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of
15 distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus
16 accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the

HB0321- 356 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 real estate investment trust subject to the tax imposed
2 by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, real
3 estate investment trust taxable income;
4 (E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a
5 corporation which is a member of an affiliated group of
6 corporations filing a consolidated income tax return
7 for the taxable year for federal income tax purposes,
8 taxable income determined as if such corporation had
9 filed a separate return for federal income tax purposes
10 for the taxable year and each preceding taxable year
11 for which it was a member of an affiliated group. For
12 purposes of this subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate
13 taxable income shall be determined as if the election
14 provided by Section 243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue
15 Code had been in effect for all such years;
16 (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
17 corporation or association, the taxable income of such
18 organization determined in accordance with the
19 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the Internal
20 Revenue Code, but without regard to the prohibition
21 against offsetting losses from patronage activities
22 against income from nonpatronage activities; except
23 that a cooperative corporation or association may make
24 an election to follow its federal income tax treatment
25 of patronage losses and nonpatronage losses. In the
26 event such election is made, such losses shall be

HB0321- 357 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 computed and carried over in a manner consistent with
2 subsection (a) of Section 207 of this Act and
3 apportioned by the apportionment factor reported by
4 the cooperative on its Illinois income tax return filed
5 for the taxable year in which the losses are incurred.
6 The election shall be effective for all taxable years
7 with original returns due on or after the date of the
8 election. In addition, the cooperative may file an
9 amended return or returns, as allowed under this Act,
10 to provide that the election shall be effective for
11 losses incurred or carried forward for taxable years
12 occurring prior to the date of the election. Once made,
13 the election may only be revoked upon approval of the
14 Director. The Department shall adopt rules setting
15 forth requirements for documenting the elections and
16 any resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
17 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
18 elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
19 existing law;
20 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
21 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
22 an election for the taxable year under Section 1362 of
23 the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income of such
24 corporation determined in accordance with Section
25 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except that
26 taxable income shall take into account those items

HB0321- 358 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
2 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and (ii)
3 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
4 a federal election to opt out of the provisions of the
5 Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have applied
6 instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules as in
7 effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of such
8 corporation determined in accordance with the federal
9 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982; and
10 (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
11 taxable income determined in accordance with Section
12 703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
13 income shall take into account those items which are
14 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
15 but which would be taken into account by an individual
16 in calculating his taxable income.
17 (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
18 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
19 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
20 business has been classified as business income and in a
21 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
22 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
23 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
24 related to that asset or business that generated the
25 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
26 business income in the year of the disposition of the asset

HB0321- 359 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois
2 using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed
3 for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the
4 taxable year or the average of the apportionment fractions
5 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act for
6 the taxable year and for the 2 immediately preceding
7 taxable years.
8 (f) Valuation limitation amount.
9 (1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
10 referred to in subsections (a)(2)(G), (c)(2)(I) and
11 (d)(2)(E) is an amount equal to:
12 (A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
13 amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
14 under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
15 Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
16 which such gain was reported for the taxable year; plus
17 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
18 1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
19 capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
20 gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
21 the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
22 taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of
23 such gain included in the amount determined under
24 subsection (a)(2)(F) or (c)(2)(H).
25 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.

HB0321- 360 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (A) If the fair market value of property referred
2 to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on August
3 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount for
4 such property is the lesser of (i) the excess of such
5 fair market value over the taxpayer's basis (for
6 determining gain) for such property on that date
7 (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
8 effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
9 and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
10 respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of
11 such property.
12 (B) If the fair market value of property referred
13 to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
14 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
15 amount for such property is that amount which bears the
16 same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the
17 property for federal income tax purposes for the
18 taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
19 that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
20 property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
21 full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
22 period for the property.
23 (C) The Department shall prescribe such
24 regulations as may be necessary to carry out the
25 purposes of this paragraph.

HB0321- 361 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
2otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
3to be deducted more than once.
4 (h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by
5this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on
6the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into
7account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or

20 substantial portion of a return or claim for refund
21 shall be treated as the preparation of that return or
22 claim for refund.
23 (B) A person is not an income tax return preparer
24 if all he or she does is
25 (i) furnish typing, reproducing, or other
26 mechanical assistance;

HB0321- 408 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b

16 (A) The term "unitary business group" means a group
17 of persons related through common ownership whose

19 upon and contribute to each other. The group will not
20 include those members whose business activity outside

22 total business activity; for purposes of this
23 paragraph and clause (a)(3)(B)(ii) of Section 304,
24 business activity within the United States shall be
25 measured by means of the factors ordinarily applicable
26 under subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), or (h) of Section

HB0321- 409 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 304 except that, in the case of members ordinarily
2 required to apportion business income by means of the 3
3 factor formula of property, payroll and sales
4 specified in subsection (a) of Section 304, including
5 the formula as weighted in subsection (h) of Section
6 304, such members shall not use the sales factor in the
7 computation and the results of the property and payroll
8 factor computations of subsection (a) of Section 304
9 shall be divided by 2 (by one if either the property or
10 payroll factor has a denominator of zero). The
11 computation required by the preceding sentence shall,
12 in each case, involve the division of the member's
13 property, payroll, or revenue miles in the United
14 States, insurance premiums on property or risk in the
15 United States, or financial organization business
16 income from sources within the United States, as the
17 case may be, by the respective worldwide figures for
18 such items. Common ownership in the case of
19 corporations is the direct or indirect control or
20 ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding voting
21 stock of the persons carrying on unitary business
22 activity. Unitary business activity can ordinarily be
23 illustrated where the activities of the members are:
24 (1) in the same general line (such as manufacturing,
25 wholesaling, retailing of tangible personal property,
26 insurance, transportation or finance); or (2) are

HB0321- 410 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 steps in a vertically structured enterprise or process
2 (such as the steps involved in the production of
3 natural resources, which might include exploration,
4 mining, refining, and marketing); and, in either
5 instance, the members are functionally integrated
6 through the exercise of strong centralized management
7 (where, for example, authority over such matters as
8 purchasing, financing, tax compliance, product line,
9 personnel, marketing and capital investment is not
10 left to each member).
11 (B) In no event, for taxable years ending prior to
12 December 31, 2017 or ending after December 31, 2018,
13 shall any unitary business group include members which
14 are ordinarily required to apportion business income
15 under different subsections of Section 304 except that
16 for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987 this
17 prohibition shall not apply to a holding company that
18 would otherwise be a member of a unitary business group
19 with taxpayers that apportion business income under
20 any of subsections (b), (c), (c-1), or (d) of Section
21 304. If a unitary business group would, but for the
22 preceding sentence, include members that are
23 ordinarily required to apportion business income under
24 different subsections of Section 304, then for each
25 subsection of Section 304 for which there are two or
26 more members, there shall be a separate unitary

HB0321- 411 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 business group composed of such members. For purposes
2 of the preceding two sentences, a member is "ordinarily
3 required to apportion business income" under a
4 particular subsection of Section 304 if it would be
5 required to use the apportionment method prescribed by
6 such subsection except for the fact that it derives
7 business income solely from Illinois. As used in this
8 paragraph, for taxable years ending before December
9 31, 2017 or ending after December 31, 2018, the phrase
10 "United States" means only the 50 states and the
11 District of Columbia, but does not include any
12 territory or possession of the United States or any
13 area over which the United States has asserted
14 jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights with respect
15 to the exploration for or exploitation of natural
16 resources. For taxable years ending on or after
17 December 31, 2017 and ending on or before December 31,
18 2018, the phrase "United States", as used in this
19 paragraph, means only the 50 states, the District of
20 Columbia, and any area over which the United States has
21 asserted jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights with
22 respect to the exploration for or exploitation of
23 natural resources, but does not include any territory
24 or possession of the United States.
25 (C) Holding companies.
26 (i) For purposes of this subparagraph, a

HB0321- 412 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 "holding company" is a corporation (other than a
2 corporation that is a financial organization under
3 paragraph (8) of this subsection (a) of Section
4 1501 because it is a bank holding company under the
5 provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956
6 (12 U.S.C. 1841, et seq.) or because it is owned by
7 a bank or a bank holding company) that owns a
8 controlling interest in one or more other
9 taxpayers ("controlled taxpayers"); that, during
10 the period that includes the taxable year and the 2
11 immediately preceding taxable years or, if the
12 corporation was formed during the current or
13 immediately preceding taxable year, the taxable
14 years in which the corporation has been in
15 existence, derived substantially all its gross
16 income from dividends, interest, rents, royalties,
17 fees or other charges received from controlled
18 taxpayers for the provision of services, and gains
19 on the sale or other disposition of interests in
20 controlled taxpayers or in property leased or
21 licensed to controlled taxpayers or used by the
22 taxpayer in providing services to controlled
23 taxpayers; and that incurs no substantial expenses
24 other than expenses (including interest and other
25 costs of borrowing) incurred in connection with
26 the acquisition and holding of interests in

HB0321- 413 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 controlled taxpayers and in the provision of
2 services to controlled taxpayers or in the leasing
3 or licensing of property to controlled taxpayers.
4 (ii) The income of a holding company which is a
5 member of more than one unitary business group
6 shall be included in each unitary business group of
7 which it is a member on a pro rata basis, by
8 including in each unitary business group that
9 portion of the base income of the holding company
10 that bears the same proportion to the total base
11 income of the holding company as the gross receipts
12 of the unitary business group bears to the combined
13 gross receipts of all unitary business groups (in
14 both cases without regard to the holding company)
15 or on any other reasonable basis, consistently
16 applied.
17 (iii) A holding company shall apportion its
18 business income under the subsection of Section
19 304 used by the other members of its unitary
20 business group. The apportionment factors of a
21 holding company which would be a member of more
22 than one unitary business group shall be included
23 with the apportionment factors of each unitary
24 business group of which it is a member on a pro
25 rata basis using the same method used in clause
26 (ii).

HB0321- 414 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 (iv) The provisions of this subparagraph (C)
2 are intended to clarify existing law.
3 (D) If including the base income and factors of a
4 holding company in more than one unitary business group
5 under subparagraph (C) does not fairly reflect the
6 degree of integration between the holding company and
7 one or more of the unitary business groups, the
8 dependence of the holding company and one or more of
9 the unitary business groups upon each other, or the
10 contributions between the holding company and one or
11 more of the unitary business groups, the holding
12 company may petition the Director, under the
13 procedures provided under Section 304(f), for
14 permission to include all base income and factors of
15 the holding company only with members of a unitary
16 business group apportioning their business income
17 under one subsection of subsections (a), (b), (c), or
18 (d) of Section 304. If the petition is granted, the
19 holding company shall be included in a unitary business
20 group only with persons apportioning their business
21 income under the selected subsection of Section 304
22 until the Director grants a petition of the holding
23 company either to be included in more than one unitary
24 business group under subparagraph (C) or to include its
25 base income and factors only with members of a unitary
26 business group apportioning their business income

HB0321- 415 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 under a different subsection of Section 304.
2 (E) If the unitary business group members'
3 accounting periods differ, the common parent's
4 accounting period or, if there is no common parent, the
5 accounting period of the member that is expected to
6 have, on a recurring basis, the greatest Illinois
7 income tax liability must be used to determine whether
8 to use the apportionment method provided in subsection
9 (a) or subsection (h) of Section 304. The prohibition
10 against membership in a unitary business group for
11 taxpayers ordinarily required to apportion income
12 under different subsections of Section 304 does not
13 apply to taxpayers required to apportion income under
14 subsection (a) and subsection (h) of Section 304. The
15 provisions of this amendatory Act of 1998 apply to tax
16 years ending on or after December 31, 1998.
17 (28) Subchapter S corporation. The term "Subchapter S
18 corporation" means a corporation for which there is in
19 effect an election under Section 1362 of the Internal
20 Revenue Code, or for which there is a federal election to
21 opt out of the provisions of the Subchapter S Revision Act
22 of 1982 and have applied instead the prior federal
23 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982.
24 (30) Foreign person. The term "foreign person" means
25 any person who is a nonresident alien individual and any
26 nonindividual entity, regardless of where created or

HB0321- 416 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 organized, whose business activity outside the United
2 States is 80% or more of the entity's total business
3 activity.
4 (b) Other definitions.
5 (1) Words denoting number, gender, and so forth, when
6 used in this Act, where not otherwise distinctly expressed
7 or manifestly incompatible with the intent thereof:
8 (A) Words importing the singular include and apply
9 to several persons, parties or things;
10 (B) Words importing the plural include the
11 singular; and
12 (C) Words importing the masculine gender include
13 the feminine as well.
14 (2) "Company" or "association" as including successors
15 and assigns. The word "company" or "association", when used
16 in reference to a corporation, shall be deemed to embrace
17 the words "successors and assigns of such company or
18 association", and in like manner as if these last-named
19 words, or words of similar import, were expressed.
20 (3) Other terms. Any term used in any Section of this
21 Act with respect to the application of, or in connection
22 with, the provisions of any other Section of this Act shall
23 have the same meaning as in such other Section.

HB0321- 417 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1 Section 130. The Retailers' Occupation Tax Act is amended
2by changing Sections 5a, 5b, and 5c as follows:
3 (35 ILCS 120/5a) (from Ch. 120, par. 444a)
4 Sec. 5a. The Department shall have a lien for the tax
5herein imposed or any portion thereof, or for any penalty
6provided for in this Act, or for any amount of interest which
7may be due as provided for in Section 5 of this Act, upon all
8the real and personal property of any person to whom a final
9assessment or revised final assessment has been issued as
10provided in this Act, or whenever a return is filed without
11payment of the tax or penalty shown therein to be due,
12including all such property of such persons acquired after
13receipt of such assessment or filing of such return. The
14taxpayer is liable for the filing fee incurred imposed by the
15Department for filing the lien and the filing fee incurred
16imposed by the Department to file the release of that the lien.
17The filing fees shall be paid to the Department in addition to
18payment of the tax, penalty, and interest included in the
19amount of the lien.
20 However, where the lien arises because of the issuance of a
21final assessment or revised final assessment by the Department,
22such lien shall not attach and the notice hereinafter referred
23to in this Section shall not be filed until all proceedings in
24court for review of such final assessment or revised final
25assessment have terminated or the time for the taking thereof

HB0321- 418 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1has expired without such proceedings being instituted.
2 Upon the granting of a rehearing or departmental review
3pursuant to Section 4 or Section 5 of this Act after a lien has
4attached, such lien shall remain in full force except to the
5extent to which the final assessment may be reduced by a
6revised final assessment following such rehearing or review.
7 The lien created by the issuance of a final assessment
8shall terminate unless a notice of lien is filed, as provided
9in Section 5b hereof, within 3 years from the date all
10proceedings in court for the review of such final assessment
11have terminated or the time for the taking thereof has expired
12without such proceedings being instituted, or (in the case of a
13revised final assessment issued pursuant to a rehearing or
14departmental review) within 3 years from the date all
15proceedings in court for the review of such revised final
16assessment have terminated or the time for the taking thereof
17has expired without such proceedings being instituted; and
18where the lien results from the filing of a return without
19payment of the tax or penalty shown therein to be due, the lien
20shall terminate unless a notice of lien is filed, as provided
21in Section 5b hereof, within 3 years from the date when such
22return is filed with the Department: Provided that the time
23limitation period on the Department's right to file a notice of
24lien shall not run (1) during any period of time in which the
25order of any court has the effect of enjoining or restraining
26the Department from filing such notice of lien, or (2) during

HB0321- 419 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1the term of a repayment plan that taxpayer has entered into
2with the Department, as long as taxpayer remains in compliance
3with the terms of the repayment plan.
4 If the Department finds that a taxpayer is about to depart
5from the State, or to conceal himself or his property, or to do
6any other act tending to prejudice or to render wholly or
7partly ineffectual proceedings to collect such tax unless such
8proceedings are brought without delay, or if the Department
9finds that the collection of the amount due from any taxpayer
10will be jeopardized by delay, the Department shall give the
11taxpayer notice of such findings and shall make demand for
12immediate return and payment of such tax, whereupon such tax
13shall become immediately due and payable. If the taxpayer,
14within 5 days after such notice (or within such extension of
15time as the Department may grant), does not comply with such
16notice or show to the Department that the findings in such
17notice are erroneous, the Department may file a notice of
18jeopardy assessment lien in the office of the recorder of the
19county in which any property of the taxpayer may be located
20State Tax Lien Registry and shall notify the taxpayer of such
21filing. Such jeopardy assessment lien shall have the same scope
22and effect as the statutory lien hereinbefore provided for in
23this Section.
24 If the taxpayer believes that he does not owe some or all
25of the tax for which the jeopardy assessment lien against him
26has been filed, or that no jeopardy to the revenue in fact

HB0321- 420 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1exists, he may protest within 20 days after being notified by
2the Department of the filing of such jeopardy assessment lien
3and request a hearing, whereupon the Department shall hold a
4hearing in conformity with the provisions of this Act and,
5pursuant thereto, shall notify the taxpayer of its findings as
6to whether or not such jeopardy assessment lien will be
7released. If not, and if the taxpayer is aggrieved by this
8decision, he may file an action for judicial review of such
9final determination of the Department in accordance with
10Section 12 of this Act and the Administrative Review Law.
11 On and after July 1, 2013, protests concerning matters that
12are subject to the jurisdiction of the Illinois Independent Tax
13Tribunal shall be filed with the Tribunal, and hearings on
14those matters shall be held before the Tribunal in accordance
15with the Illinois Independent Tax Tribunal Act of 2012. The
16Tribunal shall notify the taxpayer of its findings as to
17whether or not such jeopardy assessment lien will be released.
18If not, and if the taxpayer is aggrieved by this decision, he
19may file an action for judicial review of such final
20determination of the Department in accordance with Section 12
21of this Act and the Illinois Independent Tax Tribunal Act of
222012.
23 With respect to protests filed with the Department prior to
24July 1, 2013 that would otherwise be subject to the
25jurisdiction of the Illinois Independent Tax Tribunal, the
26taxpayer may elect to be subject to the provisions of the

HB0321- 421 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1Illinois Independent Tax Tribunal Act of 2012 at any time on or
2after July 1, 2013, but not later than 30 days after the date
3on which the protest was filed. If made, the election shall be
4irrevocable.
5 If, pursuant to such hearing (or after an independent
6determination of the facts by the Department without a
7hearing), the Department or the Tribunal determines that some
8or all of the tax covered by the jeopardy assessment lien is
9not owed by the taxpayer, or that no jeopardy to the revenue
10exists, or if on judicial review the final judgment of the
11court is that the taxpayer does not owe some or all of the tax
12covered by the jeopardy assessment lien against him, or that no
13jeopardy to the revenue exists, the Department shall release
14its jeopardy assessment lien to the extent of such finding of
15nonliability for the tax, or to the extent of such finding of
16no jeopardy to the revenue.
17 The Department shall also release its jeopardy assessment
18lien against the taxpayer whenever the tax and penalty covered
19by such lien, plus any interest which may be due, are paid and
20the taxpayer has paid the Department in cash or by guaranteed
21remittance an amount representing the filing fee for the lien
22and the filing fee for the release of that lien. The Department
23shall file that release of lien with the recorder of the county
24where that lien was filed in the State Tax Lien Registry.
25 Nothing in this Section shall be construed to give the
26Department a preference over the rights of any bona fide

1purchaser, holder of a security interest, mechanics
2lienholder, mortgagee, or judgment lien creditor arising prior

9that results in the mortgagee or the holder of the security
10acting as trustee for unsecured creditors of the taxpayer
11mentioned in the notice of lien who executed such chattel or
12real property mortgage or the document evidencing such credit
13transaction. Such lien shall be inferior to the lien of general
14taxes, special assessments and special taxes heretofore or
15hereafter levied by any political subdivision of this State.
16 In case title to land to be affected by the notice of lien
17or notice of jeopardy assessment lien is registered under the
18provisions of "An Act concerning land titles", approved May 1,
191897, as amended, such notice shall also be filed in the office

21property subject to the lien is situated and shall be entered
22upon the register of titles as a memorial or charge upon each

10retailer's stock in trade purchased from the retailer in the
11usual course of such retailer's business.

3require that the Department pay any costs or fees in connection
4with recordation of any notice or other document filed by the
5Department under this Act at the time such notice or other
6document is presented for recordation. The recorder or

8is amended by changing Sections 16, 17, and 19 as follows:
9 (35 ILCS 520/16) (from Ch. 120, par. 2166)
10 Sec. 16. All assessments are jeopardy assessments - lien.
11 (a) Assessment. An assessment for a dealer not possessing
12valid stamps or other official indicia showing that the tax has
13been paid shall be considered a jeopardy assessment or
14collection, as provided by Section 1102 of the Illinois Income
15Tax Act. The Department shall determine and assess a tax and
16applicable penalties and interest according to the best
17judgment and information available to the Department, which
18amount so fixed by the Department shall be prima facie correct
19and shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness of the
20amount of tax due, as shown in such determination. When,
21according to the best judgment and information available to the
22Department with regard to all real and personal property and
23rights to property of the dealer, there is no reasonable
24expectation of collection of the amount of tax and penalty to

HB0321- 428 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1be assessed, the Department may issue an assessment under this
2Section for the amount of tax without penalty.
3 (b) Filing of lien. Upon issuance of a jeopardy assessment
4as provided by subsection (a) of this Section, the Department
5may file a notice of jeopardy assessment lien in the office of
6the recorder of the county in which any property of the
7taxpayer may be located State Tax Lien Registry and shall
8notify the taxpayer of such filing.
9 (c) Protest. If the taxpayer believes that he does not owe
10some or all of the amount for which the jeopardy assessment
11lien against him has been filed, he may protest within 20 days
12after being notified by the Department of the filing of such
13jeopardy assessment lien and request a hearing, whereupon the
14Department shall hold a hearing in conformity with the
15provisions of Section 908 of the Illinois Income Tax Act and,
16pursuant thereto, shall notify the taxpayer of its decision as
17to whether or not such jeopardy assessment lien will be
18released.
19 After the expiration of the period within which the person
20assessed may file an action for judicial review without such
21action being filed, a certified copy of the final assessment or
22revised final assessment of the Department may be filed with
23the Circuit Court of the county in which the dealer resides, or
24of Cook County in the case of a dealer who does not reside in
25this State, or in the county where the violation of this Act
26took place. The certified copy of the final assessment or

HB0321- 429 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1revised final assessment shall be accompanied by a
2certification which recites facts that are sufficient to show
3that the Department complied with the jurisdictional
4requirements of the Act in arriving at its final assessment or
5its revised final assessment and that the dealer had this
6opportunity for an administrative hearing and for judicial
7review, whether he availed himself or herself of either or both
8of these opportunities or not. If the court is satisfied that
9the Department complied with the jurisdictional requirements
10of the Act in arriving at its final assessment or its revised
11final assessment and that the taxpayer had his opportunity for
12an administrative hearing and for judicial review, whether he
13availed himself of either or both of these opportunities or
14not, the court shall render judgment in favor of the Department
15and against the taxpayer for the amount shown to be due by the
16final assessment or the revised final assessment, plus any
17interest which may be due, and such judgment shall be entered
18in the judgment docket of the court. Such judgment shall bear
19the same rate of interest and shall have the same effect as
20other judgments. The judgment may be enforced, and all laws
21applicable to sales for the enforcement of a judgment shall be
22applicable to sales made under such judgments. The Department
23shall file the certified copy of its assessment, as herein
24provided, with the Circuit Court within 2 years after such
25assessment becomes final except when the taxpayer consents in
26writing to an extension of such filing period, and except that

HB0321- 430 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1the time limitation period on the Department's right to file
2the certified copy of its assessment with the Circuit Court
3shall not run during any period of time in which the order of
4any court has the effect of enjoining or restraining the
5Department from filing such certified copy of its assessment
6with the Circuit Court.
7 If, when the cause of action for a proceeding in court
8accrues against a person, he or she is out of the State, the
9action may be commenced within the times herein limited, after
10his or her coming into or returning to the State; and if, after
11the cause of action accrues, he or she departs from and remains
12out of the State, the time of his or her absence from the
13State, the time of his or her absence is no part of the time
14limited for the commencement of the action; but the foregoing
15provisions concerning absence from the State shall not apply to
16any case in which, at the time the cause of action accrues, the
17party against whom the cause of action accrues is not a
18resident of this State. The time within which a court action is
19to be commenced by the Department hereunder shall not run from
20the date the taxpayer files a petition in bankruptcy under the
21Federal Bankruptcy Act until 30 days after notice of
22termination or expiration of the automatic stay imposed by the
23Federal Bankruptcy Act.
24 No claim shall be filed against the estate of any deceased
25person or any person under legal disability for any tax or
26penalty or part of either, or interest, except in the manner

HB0321- 431 -LRB101 04001 HLH 49009 b
1prescribed and within the time limited by the Probate Act of
21975, as amended.
3 The collection of tax or penalty or interest by any means
4provided for herein shall not be a bar to any prosecution under
5this Act.
6 In addition to any penalty provided for in this Act, any
7amount of tax which is not paid when due shall bear interest at
8the rate determined in accordance with the Uniform Penalty and
9Interest Act, per month or fraction thereof from the date when
10such tax becomes past due until such tax is paid or a judgment
11therefor is obtained by the Department. If the time for making
12or completing an audit of a taxpayer's books and records is
13extended with the taxpayer's consent, at the request of and for
14the convenience of the Department, beyond the date on which the
15statute of limitations upon the issuance of a notice of tax
16liability by the Department otherwise run, no interest shall
17accrue during the period of such extension. Interest shall be
18collected in the same manner and as part of the tax.
19 If the Department determines that an amount of tax or
20penalty or interest was incorrectly assessed, whether as the
21result of a mistake of fact or an error of law, the Department
22shall waive the amount of tax or penalty or interest that
23accrued due to the incorrect assessment.
