If, within the taxable year for which the election under this section is in effect, a United States shareholder receives a cash distribution from a controlled foreign corporation which is excluded from gross income under Section 959(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, the distribution shall be treated for purposes of this section as a cash dividend to the extent of any amount included in income by the United States shareholder under Section 951(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code as a result of any cash dividend during such taxable year to:
        (1) the controlled foreign corporation from another controlled foreign corporation that is in a chain of ownership described in Section 958(a) of the Internal Revenue Code; or

        The amounts described in clauses (B) and (C) shall be treated

as being zero (0) if there is no statement or the statement fails to show a specific amount of earnings or liability, whichever applies.
        (2) The amount of dividends taken into account under subsection (a) may not exceed the excess (if any) of the remainder of:
            (A) the dividends received during the taxable year by the shareholder from controlled foreign corporations; minus
            (B) the annual average for the base period years of:
                (i) the dividends received during each base period year by the shareholder from controlled foreign corporations;
                (ii) the amounts includable in the shareholder's gross income for each base period year under Section 951(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to controlled foreign corporations; and

        (3) The amount of dividends that would (but for this subdivision) be taken into account under subsection (a) shall be reduced by the excess (if any) of:
            (A) the amount of indebtedness of the controlled foreign corporation to any related person (as defined in Section 954(d)(3)) of the Internal Revenue Code as of the close of the taxable year for which the election under this section is in effect; minus
            (B) the amount of indebtedness of the controlled foreign corporation to any related person (as so defined) as of December 31, 2012.
        All controlled foreign corporations with respect to which the taxpayer is a United States shareholder shall be treated as one (1) controlled foreign corporation for purposes of this subdivision.


        (4) Subsection (a) does not apply to any dividend received by a United States shareholder unless the amount of the dividend is invested in Indiana under a domestic reinvestment plan that:

            (B) If the taxpayer has fewer than five (5) taxable years ending on or before the date established by the Indiana economic development corporation for the corporation, then instead of applying clause (A), the base period years include all the taxable years of the taxpayer ending on or before the date established by the Indiana economic development corporation for the corporation.

                (i) Rules similar to the rules of subparagraphs (A) and (B) of Section 41(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code apply for purposes of this subdivision.
                (ii) If there is a distribution to which Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code (or so much of Section 356 of the Internal Revenue Code as relates to Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code) applies during the five (5) year period referred to in clause (A)(i) and the controlled corporation (within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code) is a United States shareholder, the controlled corporation shall be treated as being in existence during the period that the distributing corporation (within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code) is in existence. In addition, for purposes of applying subsection (b)(2) to the controlled corporation and the distributing corporation, amounts described in subsection (b)(2)(B) that are received or includable by the distributing corporation or controlled corporation (whichever applies) before the distribution from a controlled foreign corporation shall be allocated between these corporations in proportion to their respective interests as United States shareholders of the controlled foreign corporation immediately after the distribution. However, this allocation does not apply if neither the controlled corporation nor the distributing corporation is a United States shareholder of the controlled foreign corporation immediately after the

distribution.
        (3) "Dividend" does not include amounts includable in gross income as a dividend under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 367 of the Internal Revenue Code, or Section 1248 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in the case of a liquidation under Section 332 of the Internal Revenue Code to which Section 367(b) of the Internal Revenue Code applies, the exclusion does not apply to the extent the United States shareholder actually receives cash as part of the liquidation.
        (4) A deduction is not allowed under any other law for any dividend for which a deduction is allowed under this section.
        (5) With regard to controlled groups the following apply:
            (A) All United States shareholders that are members of an affiliated group filing a consolidated return under Section 1501 of the Internal Revenue Code shall be treated as one (1) United States shareholder.

        (1) Any taxes paid or accrued (or treated as paid or accrued) with respect to the deductible part of:
            (A) any dividend; or
            (B) any amount described in subsection (a)(2) which is included in income under Section 951(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code.
        No deduction is allowed under this section for any tax for which credit is not allowable by reason of this subdivision.
        (2) Expenses properly allocated and apportioned to the deductible part described in subdivision (1).
For purposes of this section, unless the taxpayer otherwise

specifies, the deductible part of any dividend or other amount is the amount that bears the same ratio to the amount of the dividend or other amount as the amount allowed as a deduction under subsection (a) for the taxable year bears to the amount described in subsection (b)(2)(A) for that year.
    (e) A deduction under this section may not reduce the adjusted gross income of any United States shareholder for any taxable year to less than zero (0). The excess of the amount of dividends taken into account under subsection (a) over the deduction allowed under subsection (a) for these dividends for any taxable year may not be taken into account in determining the amount of any net operating loss deductible from adjusted gross income for the taxable year.
    (f) A taxpayer may elect to apply this section to:
        (1) the taxpayer's last taxable year that begins in the year the deduction is approved by the Indiana economic development corporation; or
        (2) the taxpayer's first taxable year that begins in the year after the year the deduction is approved by the Indiana economic development corporation.
An election may be made for a taxable year only if it is made before the due date (including extensions) for filing the return of tax for that taxable year. An election may cover not more than two (2) taxable years for any particular taxpayer.
