4 allowed as a deduction in computing base income for
5 interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6 indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after

9 fact that foreign person's business activity outside
10 the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
11 person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
12 years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
13 who would be a member of the same unitary business
14 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
15 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
16 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
17 required to apportion business income under different
18 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
19 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
20 extent that dividends were included in base income of
21 the unitary group for the same taxable year and
22 received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
23 taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
24 included in gross income under Sections 951 through 964
25 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in
26 gross income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue

SB2148- 5 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 Code) with respect to the stock of the same person to
2 whom the interest was paid, accrued, or incurred.
3 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
4 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
5 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
6 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
7 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
8 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
9 with respect to such interest; or
10 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
11 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
12 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
13 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
14 following:
15 (a) the person, during the same taxable
16 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
17 to a person that is not a related member, and
18 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
19 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
20 person did not have as a principal purpose the
21 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
22 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
23 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
24 terms; or
25 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
26 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest

SB2148- 6 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
2 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
3 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
4 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
5 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
6 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
7 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
8 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
9 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
10 to the application or use of an alternative method
11 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
12 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
13 Director from making any other adjustment
14 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
15 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
16 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
17 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
18 and such regulations provide methods and standards
19 by which the Department will utilize its authority
20 under Section 404 of this Act;
21 (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
22 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
23 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
24 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
25 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
26 foreign person who would be a member of the same

SB2148- 7 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 unitary business group but for the fact that the
2 foreign person's business activity outside the United
3 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
4 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
5 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
6 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
7 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
8 from being included in the unitary business group
9 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
10 business income under different subsections of Section
11 304. The addition modification required by this
12 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
13 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
14 group for the same taxable year and received by the
15 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
16 business group (including amounts included in gross
17 income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
18 Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under
19 Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect
20 to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible
21 expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid,
22 incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not
23 apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a
24 reduction to the addition modification required under
25 Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this
26 subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs"

SB2148- 8 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or
2 related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use,
3 maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange,
4 or any other disposition of intangible property; (2)
5 losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from
6 factoring transactions or discounting transactions;
7 (3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees;
8 (4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and
9 costs. For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible
10 property" includes patents, patent applications, trade
11 names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask
12 works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible
13 assets.
14 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
15 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
16 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
17 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
18 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
19 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
20 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
21 to such item; or
22 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
23 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
24 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
25 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
26 following:

SB2148- 9 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 (a) the person during the same taxable
2 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
3 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
4 not a related member, and
5 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
6 intangible expense or cost between the
7 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
8 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
9 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
10 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
11 or
12 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
13 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
14 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
15 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
16 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
17 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
18 writing to the application or use of an alternative
19 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
20 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
21 Director from making any other adjustment
22 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
23 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
24 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
25 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
26 and such regulations provide methods and standards

SB2148- 10 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 by which the Department will utilize its authority
2 under Section 404 of this Act;
3 (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
4 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
5 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
6 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
7 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
8 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
9 business group but for the fact that the person is
10 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
11 included in the unitary business group because he or
12 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
13 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
14 addition modification required by this subparagraph
15 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
16 included in base income of the unitary group for the
17 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
18 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
19 (including amounts included in gross income under
20 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
21 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
22 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
23 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
24 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
25 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
26 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition

SB2148- 11 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) or
2 Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this Act.

13 taxable year from any taxable year ending prior to
14 December 31, 1986 shall not exceed the amount of

8 who would be a member of the same unitary business
9 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited

12 required to apportion business income under different
13 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
14 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
15 extent that dividends were included in base income of
16 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

19 included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951
20 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts
21 included in gross income under Section 78 of the
22 Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the
23 same person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or
24 incurred.
25 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
26 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

SB2148- 32 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who

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

SB2148- 33 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
2 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
3 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
4 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
5 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
6 to the application or use of an alternative method
7 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
8 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
9 Director from making any other adjustment
10 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
11 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
12 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
13 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
14 and such regulations provide methods and standards
15 by which the Department will utilize its authority
16 under Section 404 of this Act;
17 (E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
18 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
19 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
20 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
21 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
22 foreign person who would be a member of the same
23 unitary business group but for the fact that the
24 foreign person's business activity outside the United
25 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
26 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after

SB2148- 34 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
2 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
3 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
4 from being included in the unitary business group
5 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
6 business income under different subsections of Section
7 304. The addition modification required by this
8 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
9 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
10 group for the same taxable year and received by the
11 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
12 business group (including amounts included in gross
13 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
14 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
15 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
16 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
17 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
18 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
19 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
20 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
21 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
22 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
23 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
24 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
25 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
26 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of

SB2148- 35 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
2 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
3 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
4 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
5 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
6 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
7 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
8 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
9 similar types of intangible assets.
10 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
11 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
12 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
13 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
14 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
15 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
16 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
17 to such item; or
18 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
19 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
20 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
21 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
22 following:
23 (a) the person during the same taxable
24 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
25 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
26 not a related member, and

SB2148- 36 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
2 intangible expense or cost between the
3 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
4 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
5 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
6 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
7 or
8 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
9 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
10 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
11 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
12 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
13 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
14 writing to the application or use of an alternative
15 method 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-14) For taxable years ending on or after
26 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of

SB2148- 37 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
2 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
3 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
4 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
5 business group but for the fact that the person is
6 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
7 included in the unitary business group because he or
8 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
9 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
10 addition modification required by this subparagraph
11 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
12 included in base income of the unitary group for the
13 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
14 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
15 (including amounts included in gross income under
16 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
17 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
18 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
19 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
20 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
21 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
22 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
23 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) or
24 Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this Act;
25 (E-15) For taxable years beginning after December
26 31, 2008, any deduction for dividends paid by a captive

6 determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this
7 Act;
8 (E-17) For taxable years ending on or after
9 December 31, 2015, an amount equal to the deduction

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

SB2148- 57 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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 (G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
26 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in

SB2148- 58 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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

SB2148- 59 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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(c)(2)(G-12) of
4 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
5 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
6 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the
7 direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or
8 management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other
9 disposition of intangible property; (2) losses
10 incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring
11 transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty,
12 patent, technical, and copyright fees; (4) licensing
13 fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For
14 purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property"
15 includes patents, patent applications, trade names,
16 trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
17 trade secrets, and 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

SB2148- 60 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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

SB2148- 61 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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 (G-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

SB2148- 62 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 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(c)(2)(G-12) or
6 Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this Act;
7 (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

12 December 31, 2015, an amount equal to the deduction
13 allowed under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code

15 and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the
16 following amounts:
17 (H) An amount equal to all amounts included in such
18 total pursuant to the provisions of Sections 402(a),
19 402(c), 403(a), 403(b), 406(a), 407(a) and 408 of the
20 Internal Revenue Code or included in such total as
21 distributions under the provisions of any retirement
22 or disability plan for employees of any governmental
23 agency or unit, or retirement payments to retired
24 partners, which payments are excluded in computing net

1 thereto;
2 (I) The valuation limitation amount;

11 treaties or statutes of the United States; provided
12 that, in the case of any statute of this State that
13 exempts income derived from bonds or other obligations
14 from the tax imposed under this Act, the amount
15 exempted shall be the interest net of bond premium
16 amortization;
17 (L) With the exception of any amounts subtracted
18 under subparagraph (K), an amount equal to the sum of
19 all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections
20 171(a) (2) and 265(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code,

4 who would be a member of the same unitary business

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

1 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
2 to the application or use of an alternative method
3 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
4 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
5 Director from making any other adjustment
6 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
7 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
8 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
9 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
10 and such regulations provide methods and standards
11 by which the Department will utilize its authority
12 under Section 404 of this Act; and
13 (D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
14 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
15 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
16 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
17 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
18 foreign person who would be a member of the same
19 unitary business group but for the fact that the
20 foreign person's business activity outside the United
21 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
22 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
23 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
24 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
25 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
26 from being included in the unitary business group

SB2148- 77 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
2 business income under different subsections of Section
3 304. The addition modification required by this
4 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
5 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
6 group for the same taxable year and received by the
7 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
8 business group (including amounts included in gross
9 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
10 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
11 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
12 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
13 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
14 indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
15 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
16 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
17 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
18 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
19 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
20 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
21 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
22 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
23 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
24 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
25 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
26 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other

SB2148- 78 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
2 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
3 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
4 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
5 similar types of intangible assets;
6 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
7 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
8 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
9 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
10 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
11 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
12 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
13 to such item; or
14 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
15 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
16 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
17 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
18 following:
19 (a) the person during the same taxable
20 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
21 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
22 not a related member, and
23 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
24 intangible expense or cost between the
25 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
26 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois

SB2148- 79 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
2 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
3 or
4 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
5 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
7 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
8 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
9 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
10 writing to the application or use of an alternative
11 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
12 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
13 Director from making any other adjustment
14 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
15 any tax year beginning after the effective date of
16 this amendment provided such adjustment is made
17 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
18 and such regulations provide methods and standards
19 by which the Department will utilize its authority
20 under Section 404 of this Act;
21 (D-9) For taxable years ending on or after December
22 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of insurance
23 premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a
24 deduction in computing base income, and that were paid,
25 accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a
26 person who would be a member of the same unitary

SB2148- 80 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 business group but for the fact that the person is
2 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
3 included in the unitary business group because he or
4 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
5 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
6 addition modification required by this subparagraph
7 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
8 included in base income of the unitary group for the
9 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
10 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
11 (including amounts included in gross income under
12 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
13 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
14 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
15 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
16 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
17 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
18 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
19 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) or
20 Section 203(d)(2)(D-8) of this Act;
21 (D-10) An amount equal to the credit allowable to
22 the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act,
23 determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this
24 Act;

26 December 31, 2015, an amount equal to the deduction

SB2148- 81 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b

2 for the taxable year;
3 and by deducting from the total so obtained the following
4 amounts:

11 (C) and (D) which are exempt from taxation by this

14 of the United States; provided that, in the case of any
15 statute of this State that exempts income derived from
16 bonds or other obligations from the tax imposed under
17 this Act, the amount exempted shall be the interest net
18 of bond premium amortization;
19 (H) Any income of the partnership which
20 constitutes personal service income as defined in
21 Section 1348 (b) (1) of the Internal Revenue Code (as

8 (I) is exempt from the provisions of Section 250;
9 (J) With the exception of any amounts subtracted
10 under subparagraph (G), an amount equal to the sum of

22 and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted
23 gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall

SB2148- 89 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 purposes for the taxable year under the provisions of the
2 Internal Revenue Code. Taxable income may be less than
3 zero. However, for taxable years ending on or after
4 December 31, 1986, net operating loss carryforwards from
5 taxable years ending prior to December 31, 1986, may not
6 exceed the sum of federal taxable income for the taxable
7 year before net operating loss deduction, plus the excess
8 of addition modifications over subtraction modifications
9 for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to
10 December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount in
11 excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as
12 defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the
13 Internal Revenue Code, provided that when taxable income of

15 trust, or estate is less than zero and addition
16 modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph
17 (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or
18 subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for
19 trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an
20 addition modification must be made under those
21 subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the
22 taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is
23 applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or
24 under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection
25 (e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the Internal
26 Revenue Code.

SB2148- 90 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 (2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of this
2 subsection, the taxable income properly reportable for
3 federal income tax purposes shall mean:
4 (A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case
5 of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed
6 by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life
7 insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of
8 distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus
9 accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the
10 Internal Revenue Code;
11 (B) Certain other insurance companies. In the case
12 of mutual insurance companies subject to the tax
13 imposed by Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code,
14 insurance company taxable income;
15 (C) Regulated investment companies. In the case of
16 a regulated investment company subject to the tax
17 imposed by Section 852 of the Internal Revenue Code,
18 investment company taxable income;
19 (D) Real estate investment trusts. In the case of a
20 real estate investment trust subject to the tax imposed
21 by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, real
22 estate investment trust taxable income;
23 (E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a
24 corporation which is a member of an affiliated group of
25 corporations filing a consolidated income tax return
26 for the taxable year for federal income tax purposes,

SB2148- 91 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 taxable income determined as if such corporation had
2 filed a separate return for federal income tax purposes
3 for the taxable year and each preceding taxable year
4 for which it was a member of an affiliated group. For
5 purposes of this subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate
6 taxable income shall be determined as if the election
7 provided by Section 243(b) (2) of the Internal Revenue
8 Code had been in effect for all such years;
9 (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
10 corporation or association, the taxable income of such
11 organization determined in accordance with the
12 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the Internal
13 Revenue Code, but without regard to the prohibition
14 against offsetting losses from patronage activities
15 against income from nonpatronage activities; except
16 that a cooperative corporation or association may make
17 an election to follow its federal income tax treatment
18 of patronage losses and nonpatronage losses. In the
19 event such election is made, such losses shall be
20 computed and carried over in a manner consistent with
21 subsection (a) of Section 207 of this Act and
22 apportioned by the apportionment factor reported by
23 the cooperative on its Illinois income tax return filed
24 for the taxable year in which the losses are incurred.
25 The election shall be effective for all taxable years
26 with original returns due on or after the date of the

SB2148- 92 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 election. In addition, the cooperative may file an
2 amended return or returns, as allowed under this Act,
3 to provide that the election shall be effective for
4 losses incurred or carried forward for taxable years
5 occurring prior to the date of the election. Once made,
6 the election may only be revoked upon approval of the
7 Director. The Department shall adopt rules setting
8 forth requirements for documenting the elections and
9 any resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
10 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
11 elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
12 existing law;
13 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
14 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
15 an election for the taxable year under Section 1362 of
16 the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income of such
17 corporation determined in accordance with Section
18 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except that
19 taxable income shall take into account those items
20 which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
21 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and (ii)
22 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
23 a federal election to opt out of the provisions of the
24 Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have applied
25 instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules as in
26 effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of such

SB2148- 93 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 corporation determined in accordance with the federal
2 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982; and
3 (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
4 taxable income determined in accordance with Section
5 703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
6 income shall take into account those items which are
7 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
8 but which would be taken into account by an individual
9 in calculating his taxable income.
10 (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
11 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
12 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
13 business has been classified as business income and in a
14 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
15 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
16 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
17 related to that asset or business that generated the
18 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
19 business income in the year of the disposition of the asset
20 or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois
21 using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed
22 for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the
23 taxable year or the average of the apportionment fractions
24 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act for
25 the taxable year and for the 2 immediately preceding
26 taxable years.

6 amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
7 under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
8 Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
9 which such gain was reported for the taxable year; plus
10 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
11 1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
12 capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
13 gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
14 the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
15 taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of
16 such gain included in the amount determined under
17 subsection (a) (2) (F) or (c) (2) (H).
18 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.

14 finance lease is any transaction in the form of a lease

SB2148- 123 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 total business activity; for purposes of this
2 paragraph and clause (a)(3)(B)(ii) of Section 304,
3 business activity within the United States shall be
4 measured by means of the factors ordinarily applicable
5 under subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), or (h) of Section
6 304 except that, in the case of members ordinarily
7 required to apportion business income by means of the 3
8 factor formula of property, payroll and sales
9 specified in subsection (a) of Section 304, including
10 the formula as weighted in subsection (h) of Section
11 304, such members shall not use the sales factor in the
12 computation and the results of the property and payroll
13 factor computations of subsection (a) of Section 304
14 shall be divided by 2 (by one if either the property or
15 payroll factor has a denominator of zero). The
16 computation required by the preceding sentence shall,
17 in each case, involve the division of the member's
18 property, payroll, or revenue miles in the United
19 States, insurance premiums on property or risk in the
20 United States, or financial organization business
21 income from sources within the United States, as the
22 case may be, by the respective worldwide figures for
23 such items. Common ownership in the case of
24 corporations is the direct or indirect control or
25 ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding voting
26 stock of the persons carrying on unitary business

SB2148- 124 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 activity. Unitary business activity can ordinarily be
2 illustrated where the activities of the members are:
3 (1) in the same general line (such as manufacturing,
4 wholesaling, retailing of tangible personal property,
5 insurance, transportation or finance); or (2) are
6 steps in a vertically structured enterprise or process
7 (such as the steps involved in the production of
8 natural resources, which might include exploration,
9 mining, refining, and marketing); and, in either
10 instance, the members are functionally integrated
11 through the exercise of strong centralized management
12 (where, for example, authority over such matters as
13 purchasing, financing, tax compliance, product line,
14 personnel, marketing and capital investment is not
15 left to each member).
16 (B) In no event, for taxable years ending prior to
17 December 31, 2015, shall any unitary business group
18 include members which are ordinarily required to
19 apportion business income under different subsections
20 of Section 304 except that for tax years ending on or
21 after December 31, 1987 this prohibition shall not
22 apply to a holding company that would otherwise be a
23 member of a unitary business group with taxpayers that
24 apportion business income under any of subsections
25 (b), (c), (c-1), or (d) of Section 304. If a unitary
26 business group would, but for the preceding sentence,

SB2148- 125 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 include members that are ordinarily required to
2 apportion business income under different subsections
3 of Section 304, then for each subsection of Section 304
4 for which there are two or more members, there shall be
5 a separate unitary business group composed of such
6 members. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, a
7 member is "ordinarily required to apportion business
8 income" under a particular subsection of Section 304 if
9 it would be required to use the apportionment method
10 prescribed by such subsection except for the fact that
11 it derives business income solely from Illinois. As
12 used in this paragraph, the phrase "United States"
13 means only the 50 states and the District of Columbia,
14 but does not include any territory or possession of the
15 United States or any area over which the United States
16 has asserted jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights
17 with respect to the exploration for or exploitation of
18 natural resources.
19 (C) Holding companies.
20 (i) For purposes of this subparagraph, a
21 "holding company" is a corporation (other than a
22 corporation that is a financial organization under
23 paragraph (8) of this subsection (a) of Section
24 1501 because it is a bank holding company under the
25 provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956
26 (12 U.S.C. 1841, et seq.) or because it is owned by

SB2148- 126 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 a bank or a bank holding company) that owns a
2 controlling interest in one or more other
3 taxpayers ("controlled taxpayers"); that, during
4 the period that includes the taxable year and the 2
5 immediately preceding taxable years or, if the
6 corporation was formed during the current or
7 immediately preceding taxable year, the taxable
8 years in which the corporation has been in
9 existence, derived substantially all its gross
10 income from dividends, interest, rents, royalties,
11 fees or other charges received from controlled
12 taxpayers for the provision of services, and gains
13 on the sale or other disposition of interests in
14 controlled taxpayers or in property leased or
15 licensed to controlled taxpayers or used by the
16 taxpayer in providing services to controlled
17 taxpayers; and that incurs no substantial expenses
18 other than expenses (including interest and other
19 costs of borrowing) incurred in connection with
20 the acquisition and holding of interests in
21 controlled taxpayers and in the provision of
22 services to controlled taxpayers or in the leasing
23 or licensing of property to controlled taxpayers.
24 (ii) The income of a holding company which is a
25 member of more than one unitary business group
26 shall be included in each unitary business group of

SB2148- 127 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 which it is a member on a pro rata basis, by
2 including in each unitary business group that
3 portion of the base income of the holding company
4 that bears the same proportion to the total base
5 income of the holding company as the gross receipts
6 of the unitary business group bears to the combined
7 gross receipts of all unitary business groups (in
8 both cases without regard to the holding company)
9 or on any other reasonable basis, consistently
10 applied.
11 (iii) A holding company shall apportion its
12 business income under the subsection of Section
13 304 used by the other members of its unitary
14 business group. The apportionment factors of a
15 holding company which would be a member of more
16 than one unitary business group shall be included
17 with the apportionment factors of each unitary
18 business group of which it is a member on a pro
19 rata basis using the same method used in clause
20 (ii).
21 (iv) The provisions of this subparagraph (C)
22 are intended to clarify existing law.
23 (D) If including the base income and factors of a
24 holding company in more than one unitary business group
25 under subparagraph (C) does not fairly reflect the
26 degree of integration between the holding company and

SB2148- 128 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 one or more of the unitary business groups, the
2 dependence of the holding company and one or more of
3 the unitary business groups upon each other, or the
4 contributions between the holding company and one or
5 more of the unitary business groups, the holding
6 company may petition the Director, under the
7 procedures provided under Section 304(f), for
8 permission to include all base income and factors of
9 the holding company only with members of a unitary
10 business group apportioning their business income
11 under one subsection of subsections (a), (b), (c), or
12 (d) of Section 304. If the petition is granted, the
13 holding company shall be included in a unitary business
14 group only with persons apportioning their business
15 income under the selected subsection of Section 304
16 until the Director grants a petition of the holding
17 company either to be included in more than one unitary
18 business group under subparagraph (C) or to include its
19 base income and factors only with members of a unitary
20 business group apportioning their business income
21 under a different subsection of Section 304.
22 (E) If the unitary business group members'
23 accounting periods differ, the common parent's
24 accounting period or, if there is no common parent, the
25 accounting period of the member that is expected to
26 have, on a recurring basis, the greatest Illinois

SB2148- 129 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 income tax liability must be used to determine whether
2 to use the apportionment method provided in subsection
3 (a) or subsection (h) of Section 304. The prohibition
4 against membership in a unitary business group for
5 taxpayers ordinarily required to apportion income
6 under different subsections of Section 304 does not
7 apply to taxpayers required to apportion income under
8 subsection (a) and subsection (h) of Section 304. The
9 provisions of this amendatory Act of 1998 apply to tax
10 years ending on or after December 31, 1998.
11 (28) Subchapter S corporation. The term "Subchapter S
12 corporation" means a corporation for which there is in
13 effect an election under Section 1362 of the Internal
14 Revenue Code, or for which there is a federal election to
15 opt out of the provisions of the Subchapter S Revision Act
16 of 1982 and have applied instead the prior federal
17 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982.
18 (30) Foreign person. The term "foreign person" means
19 any person who is a nonresident alien individual and any
20 nonindividual entity, regardless of where created or
21 organized, whose business activity outside the United
22 States is 80% or more of the entity's total business
23 activity.
24 (b) Other definitions.
25 (1) Words denoting number, gender, and so forth, when

SB2148- 130 -LRB099 12695 HLH 36454 b
1 used in this Act, where not otherwise distinctly expressed
2 or manifestly incompatible with the intent thereof:
3 (A) Words importing the singular include and apply
4 to several persons, parties or things;
5 (B) Words importing the plural include the
6 singular; and
7 (C) Words importing the masculine gender include
8 the feminine as well.
9 (2) "Company" or "association" as including successors
10 and assigns. The word "company" or "association", when used
11 in reference to a corporation, shall be deemed to embrace
12 the words "successors and assigns of such company or
13 association", and in like manner as if these last-named
14 words, or words of similar import, were expressed.
15 (3) Other terms. Any term used in any Section of this
16 Act with respect to the application of, or in connection
17 with, the provisions of any other Section of this Act shall
18 have the same meaning as in such other Section.
