25increased) to the rate at which the total amount of tax imposed
26under this Act, net of all credits allowed under this Act,

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 9 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1shall equal (i) the total amount of tax that would be imposed
2on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
3the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
4domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes

SB1147 Engrossed- 10 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    Section 409 of the Illinois Insurance Code. This paragraph
2    will in no event increase the rates imposed under
3    subsections (b) and (d).
4        (2) Any reduction in the rates of tax imposed by this
5    subsection shall be applied first against the rates
6    imposed by subsection (b) and only after the tax imposed
7    by subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
8    Section other than the credit allowed under subsection (i)
9    has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by
10    subsection (d).
11    This subsection (d-1) is exempt from the provisions of
12Section 250.
13    (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a
14credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
15Tax for investment in qualified property.
16        (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
17    of the basis of qualified property placed in service
18    during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
19    in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed
20    an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
21    qualified property placed in service during the taxable
22    year, provided such property is placed in service on or
23    after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment
24    within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
25    preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
26    records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 11 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 12 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 13 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 14 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 15 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
2    any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
3    months after being placed in service, the Personal
4    Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year
5    shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined by
6    (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
7    been allowed for the year in which credit for such
8    property was originally allowed by eliminating such
9    property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
10    recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
11    allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a
12    reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
13    from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
14    deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
15    of such reduction.
16        (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
17    the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
18    incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs
19    incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or
20    before December 31, 2018.
21        (9) Each taxable year ending before December 31, 2000,
22    a partnership may elect to pass through to its partners
23    the credits to which the partnership is entitled under
24    this subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may
25    use the credit allocated to him or her under this
26    paragraph only against the tax imposed in subsections (c)

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 16 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 18 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 19 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

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

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 20 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    of such reduction.
2        (7) There shall be allowed an additional credit equal
3    to 0.5% of the basis of qualified property placed in
4    service during the taxable year in a River Edge
5    Redevelopment Zone, provided such property is placed in
6    service on or after July 1, 2006, and the taxpayer's base
7    employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more
8    over the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
9    employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
10    Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
11    shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base
12    employment for the first year in which they file
13    employment records with the Illinois Department of
14    Employment Security. If, in any year, the increase in base
15    employment within Illinois over the preceding year is less
16    than 1%, the additional credit shall be limited to that
17    percentage times a fraction, the numerator of which is
18    0.5% and the denominator of which is 1%, but shall not
19    exceed 0.5%.
20        (8) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1,
21    2021, there shall be allowed an Enterprise Zone
22    construction jobs credit against the taxes imposed under
23    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section as provided in
24    Section 13 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act.
25        The credit or credits may not reduce the taxpayer's
26    liability to less than zero. If the amount of the credit or

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 21 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    credits exceeds the taxpayer's liability, the excess may
2    be carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's
3    liability in succeeding calendar years in the same manner
4    provided under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act.
5    The credit or credits shall be applied to the earliest
6    year for which there is a tax liability. If there are
7    credits from more than one taxable year that are available
8    to offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be applied
9    first.
10        For partners, shareholders of Subchapter S
11    corporations, and owners of limited liability companies,
12    if the liability company is treated as a partnership for
13    the purposes of federal and State income taxation, there
14    shall be allowed a credit under this Section to be
15    determined in accordance with the determination of income
16    and distributive share of income under Sections 702 and
17    704 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
18        The total aggregate amount of credits awarded under
19    the Blue Collar Jobs Act (Article 20 of Public Act 101-9)
20    shall not exceed $20,000,000 in any State fiscal year.

12    Businesses under subdivisions (a)(3)(B), (a)(3)(C), and
13    (a)(3)(D) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone
14    Act, and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would
15    reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by
16    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. The
17    credit applicable to such investments shall be taken in
18    the taxable year in which such investments have been
19    completed. The credit for additional investments beyond
20    the minimum investment by a designated high impact
21    business authorized under subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section
22    5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act shall be available
23    only in the taxable year in which the property is placed in
24    service and shall not be allowed to the extent that it

2    shall be allowed for the tax year in which the property is
3    placed in service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds
4    the tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
5    original liability or the liability as later amended, such
6    excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
7    liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess
8    credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest
9    year for which there is a liability. If there is credit
10    from more than one tax year that is available to offset a
11    liability, the credit accruing first in time shall be
12    applied first.

3        (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
4    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal

6        (4) If the basis of the property for federal income
7    tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
8    placed in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade
9    Zone or Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the
10    amount of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
11    service on the date of such increase in basis.
12        (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
13    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
14        (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before

16    property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months
17    after being placed in service, or the situs of any
18    qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
19    months after being placed in service, the tax imposed

22of the 5 taxable years following the year for which the credit
23is first computed until it is used. This credit shall be
24applied first to the earliest year for which there is a

10this State. The credit allowed against the tax imposed by
11subsections (a) and (b) shall be equal to 6 1/2% of the
12qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities in

14corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if
15the liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes
16of federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
17credit under this subsection to be determined in accordance
18with the determination of income and distributive share of
19income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the

22means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
23credit for increasing research activities which would be
24allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
25which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures
26for increasing research activities in this State" means the

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 30 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1excess of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in
2which incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base
3period, "qualifying expenditures for the base period" means
4the average of the qualifying expenditures for each year in
5the base period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years
6immediately preceding the taxable year for which the
7determination is being made.
8    Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
9year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
10unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
11as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
12taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever
13occurs first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year
14ending prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any
15year ending on or after December 31, 2003.
16    If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
172 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
18year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
19given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
20remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be
21applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
22liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
23credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
24following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
25that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
26than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the

2    No inference shall be drawn from Public Act 91-644 in
3construing this Section for taxable years beginning before

5    It is the intent of the General Assembly that the research
6and development credit under this subsection (k) shall apply

9limited to, the period beginning on January 1, 2016 and ending
10on July 6, 2017 (the effective date of Public Act 100-22). All
11actions taken in reliance on the continuation of the credit
12under this subsection (k) by any taxpayer are hereby
13validated.
14    (l) Environmental Remediation Tax Credit.
15        (i) For tax years ending after December 31, 1997 and
16    on or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be
17    allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections
18    (a) and (b) of this Section for certain amounts paid for
19    unreimbursed eligible remediation costs, as specified in
20    this subsection. For purposes of this Section,
21    "unreimbursed eligible remediation costs" means costs
22    approved by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
23    ("Agency") under Section 58.14 of the Environmental
24    Protection Act that were paid in performing environmental
25    remediation at a site for which a No Further Remediation
26    Letter was issued by the Agency and recorded under Section

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 32 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    58.10 of the Environmental Protection Act. The credit must
2    be claimed for the taxable year in which Agency approval
3    of the eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit
4    is not available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any
5    related party caused or contributed to, in any material
6    respect, a release of regulated substances on, in, or
7    under the site that was identified and addressed by the
8    remedial action pursuant to the Site Remediation Program
9    of the Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution
10    Control Board rules are adopted pursuant to the Illinois
11    Administrative Procedure Act for the administration and
12    enforcement of Section 58.9 of the Environmental
13    Protection Act, determinations as to credit availability
14    for purposes of this Section shall be made consistent with
15    those rules. For purposes of this Section, "taxpayer"
16    includes a person whose tax attributes the taxpayer has
17    succeeded to under Section 381 of the Internal Revenue
18    Code and "related party" includes the persons disallowed a
19    deduction for losses by paragraphs (b), (c), and (f)(1) of
20    Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of
21    being a related taxpayer, as well as any of its partners.
22    The credit allowed against the tax imposed by subsections
23    (a) and (b) shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed
24    eligible remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site,
25    except that the $100,000 threshold shall not apply to any
26    site contained in an enterprise zone as determined by the

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 33 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
2    Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
3    total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year
4    with a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners
5    and shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall
6    be allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined
7    in accordance with the determination of income and
8    distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
9    and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
10        (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
11    unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
12    forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
13    for which the credit is first earned until it is used. The
14    term "unused credit" does not include any amounts of
15    unreimbursed eligible remediation costs in excess of the
16    maximum credit per site authorized under paragraph (i).
17    This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year
18    for which there is a liability. If there is a credit under
19    this subsection from more than one tax year that is
20    available to offset a liability, the earliest credit
21    arising under this subsection shall be applied first. A
22    credit allowed under this subsection may be sold to a
23    buyer as part of a sale of all or part of the remediation
24    site for which the credit was granted. The purchaser of a

25    overpayment for purposes of Section 909 of this Act.

1    partner or shareholder of a partnership or Subchapter S
2    corporation for a taxable year for which an election is in
3    effect under paragraph (1) shall not be required to file
4    an income tax return under this Act for such taxable year
5    if the only source of net income of the individual (or the
6    individual and the individual's spouse in the case of a
7    joint return) is from an entity making the election under
8    paragraph (1) and the credit allowed to the partner or
9    shareholder under paragraph (4) equals or exceeds the
10    individual's liability for the tax imposed under
11    subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act for the
12    taxable year.
13        (6) Liability for tax. Except as provided in this
14    paragraph, a partnership or Subchapter S making the
15    election under paragraph (1) is liable for the
16    entity-level tax imposed under paragraph (2). If the
17    electing partnership or corporation fails to pay the full
18    amount of tax deemed assessed under paragraph (2), the
19    partners or shareholders shall be liable to pay the tax
20    assessed (including penalties and interest). Each partner
21    or shareholder shall be liable for the unpaid assessment
22    based on the ratio of the partner's or shareholder's share
23    of the net income of the partnership over the total net
24    income of the partnership. If the partnership or
25    Subchapter S corporation fails to pay the tax assessed
26    (including penalties and interest) and thereafter an

 

 

SB1147 Engrossed- 44 -LRB103 05591 HLH 50610 b

1    amount of such tax is paid by the partners or
2    shareholders, such amount shall not be collected from the
3    partnership or corporation.
4        (7) Foreign tax. For purposes of the credit allowed
5    under Section 601(b)(3) of this Act, tax paid by a
6    partnership or Subchapter S corporation to another state
7    which, as determined by the Department, is substantially
8    similar to the tax imposed under this subsection, shall be
9    considered tax paid by the partner or shareholder to the
10    extent that the partner's or shareholder's share of the
11    income of the partnership or Subchapter S corporation
12    allocated and apportioned to such other state bears to the
13    total income of the partnership or Subchapter S
14    corporation allocated or apportioned to such other state.
15        (8) Suspension of withholding. The provisions of
16    Section 709.5 of this Act shall not apply to a partnership
17    or Subchapter S corporation for the taxable year for which
18    an election under paragraph (1) is in effect.
19        (9) Requirement to pay estimated tax. For each taxable
20    year for which an election under paragraph (1) is in
21    effect, a partnership or Subchapter S corporation is
22    required to pay estimated tax for such taxable year under
23    Sections 803 and 804 of this Act if the amount payable as
24    estimated tax can reasonably be expected to exceed $500.
25        (10) The provisions of this subsection shall apply
26    only with respect to taxable years for which the
