10amended by changing Section 26 as follows:
11 (230 ILCS 5/26) (from Ch. 8, par. 37-26)
12 Sec. 26. Wagering.
13 (a) Any licensee may conduct and supervise the pari-mutuel
14system of wagering, as defined in Section 3.12 of this Act, on
15horse races conducted by an Illinois organization licensee or
16conducted at a racetrack located in another state or country
17in accordance with subsection (g) of Section 26 of this Act.
18Subject to the prior consent of the Board, licensees may
19supplement any pari-mutuel pool in order to guarantee a
20minimum distribution. Such pari-mutuel method of wagering
21shall not, under any circumstances if conducted under the
22provisions of this Act, be held or construed to be unlawful,
23other statutes of this State to the contrary notwithstanding.
24Subject to rules for advance wagering promulgated by the

HB1075 Engrossed- 14 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1Board, any licensee may accept wagers in advance of the day the
2race wagered upon occurs.
3 (b) Except for those gaming activities for which a license
4is obtained and authorized under the Illinois Lottery Law, the
5Charitable Games Act, the Raffles and Poker Runs Act, or the
6Illinois Gambling Act, no other method of betting, pool
7making, wagering or gambling shall be used or permitted by the
8licensee. Each licensee may retain, subject to the payment of
9all applicable taxes and purses, an amount not to exceed 17% of
10all money wagered under subsection (a) of this Section, except
11as may otherwise be permitted under this Act.
12 (b-5) An individual may place a wager under the
13pari-mutuel system from any licensed location authorized under
14this Act provided that wager is electronically recorded in the
15manner described in Section 3.12 of this Act. Any wager made
16electronically by an individual while physically on the
17premises of a licensee shall be deemed to have been made at the
18premises of that licensee.
19 (c) (Blank).
20 (c-5) The sum held by any licensee for payment of
21outstanding pari-mutuel tickets, if unclaimed prior to
22December 31 of the next year, shall be retained by the licensee
23for payment of such tickets until that date. Within 10 days
24thereafter, the balance of such sum remaining unclaimed, less
25any uncashed supplements contributed by such licensee for the
26purpose of guaranteeing minimum distributions of any

HB1075 Engrossed- 15 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1pari-mutuel pool, shall be evenly distributed to the purse
2account of the organization licensee and the organization
3licensee, except that the balance of the sum of all
4outstanding pari-mutuel tickets generated from simulcast
5wagering and inter-track wagering by an organization licensee
6located in a county with a population in excess of 230,000 and
7borders the Mississippi River or any licensee that derives its
8license from that organization licensee shall be evenly
9distributed to the purse account of the organization licensee
10and the organization licensee.
11 (d) A pari-mutuel ticket shall be honored until December
1231 of the next calendar year, and the licensee shall pay the
13same and may charge the amount thereof against unpaid money
14similarly accumulated on account of pari-mutuel tickets not
15presented for payment.
16 (e) No licensee shall knowingly permit any minor, other
17than an employee of such licensee or an owner, trainer,
18jockey, driver, or employee thereof, to be admitted during a
19racing program unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, or
20any minor to be a patron of the pari-mutuel system of wagering
21conducted or supervised by it. The admission of any
22unaccompanied minor, other than an employee of the licensee or
23an owner, trainer, jockey, driver, or employee thereof at a
24race track is a Class C misdemeanor.
25 (f) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Act, an
26organization licensee may contract with an entity in another

HB1075 Engrossed- 16 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1state or country to permit any legal wagering entity in
2another state or country to accept wagers solely within such
3other state or country on races conducted by the organization
4licensee in this State. Beginning January 1, 2000, these
5wagers shall not be subject to State taxation. Until January
61, 2000, when the out-of-State entity conducts a pari-mutuel
7pool separate from the organization licensee, a privilege tax
8equal to 7 1/2% of all monies received by the organization
9licensee from entities in other states or countries pursuant
10to such contracts is imposed on the organization licensee, and
11such privilege tax shall be remitted to the Department of
12Revenue within 48 hours of receipt of the moneys from the
13simulcast. When the out-of-State entity conducts a combined
14pari-mutuel pool with the organization licensee, the tax shall
15be 10% of all monies received by the organization licensee
16with 25% of the receipts from this 10% tax to be distributed to
17the county in which the race was conducted.
18 An organization licensee may permit one or more of its
19races to be utilized for pari-mutuel wagering at one or more
20locations in other states and may transmit audio and visual
21signals of races the organization licensee conducts to one or
22more locations outside the State or country and may also
23permit pari-mutuel pools in other states or countries to be
24combined with its gross or net wagering pools or with wagering
25pools established by other states.
26 (g) A host track may accept interstate simulcast wagers on

HB1075 Engrossed- 17 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1horse races conducted in other states or countries and shall
2control the number of signals and types of breeds of racing in
3its simulcast program, subject to the disapproval of the
4Board. The Board may prohibit a simulcast program only if it
5finds that the simulcast program is clearly adverse to the
6integrity of racing. The host track simulcast program shall
7include the signal of live racing of all organization
8licensees. All non-host licensees and advance deposit wagering
9licensees shall carry the signal of and accept wagers on live
10racing of all organization licensees. Advance deposit wagering
11licensees shall not be permitted to accept out-of-state wagers
12on any Illinois signal provided pursuant to this Section
13without the approval and consent of the organization licensee
14providing the signal. For one year after August 15, 2014 (the
15effective date of Public Act 98-968), non-host licensees may
16carry the host track simulcast program and shall accept wagers
17on all races included as part of the simulcast program of horse
18races conducted at race tracks located within North America
19upon which wagering is permitted. For a period of one year
20after August 15, 2014 (the effective date of Public Act
2198-968), on horse races conducted at race tracks located
22outside of North America, non-host licensees may accept wagers
23on all races included as part of the simulcast program upon
24which wagering is permitted. Beginning August 15, 2015 (one
25year after the effective date of Public Act 98-968), non-host
26licensees may carry the host track simulcast program and shall

HB1075 Engrossed- 18 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1accept wagers on all races included as part of the simulcast
2program upon which wagering is permitted. All organization
3licensees shall provide their live signal to all advance
4deposit wagering licensees for a simulcast commission fee not
5to exceed 6% of the advance deposit wagering licensee's
6Illinois handle on the organization licensee's signal without
7prior approval by the Board. The Board may adopt rules under
8which it may permit simulcast commission fees in excess of 6%.
9The Board shall adopt rules limiting the interstate commission
10fees charged to an advance deposit wagering licensee. The
11Board shall adopt rules regarding advance deposit wagering on
12interstate simulcast races that shall reflect, among other
13things, the General Assembly's desire to maximize revenues to
14the State, horsemen purses, and organization licensees.
15However, organization licensees providing live signals
16pursuant to the requirements of this subsection (g) may
17petition the Board to withhold their live signals from an
18advance deposit wagering licensee if the organization licensee
19discovers and the Board finds reputable or credible
20information that the advance deposit wagering licensee is
21under investigation by another state or federal governmental
22agency, the advance deposit wagering licensee's license has
23been suspended in another state, or the advance deposit
24wagering licensee's license is in revocation proceedings in
25another state. The organization licensee's provision of their
26live signal to an advance deposit wagering licensee under this

HB1075 Engrossed- 19 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1subsection (g) pertains to wagers placed from within Illinois.
2Advance deposit wagering licensees may place advance deposit
3wagering terminals at wagering facilities as a convenience to
4customers. The advance deposit wagering licensee shall not
5charge or collect any fee from purses for the placement of the
6advance deposit wagering terminals. The costs and expenses of
7the host track and non-host licensees associated with
8interstate simulcast wagering, other than the interstate
9commission fee, shall be borne by the host track and all
10non-host licensees incurring these costs. The interstate
11commission fee shall not exceed 5% of Illinois handle on the
12interstate simulcast race or races without prior approval of
13the Board. The Board shall promulgate rules under which it may
14permit interstate commission fees in excess of 5%. The
15interstate commission fee and other fees charged by the
16sending racetrack, including, but not limited to, satellite
17decoder fees, shall be uniformly applied to the host track and
18all non-host licensees.
19 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an
20organization licensee, with the consent of the horsemen
21association representing the largest number of owners,
22trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race horses at
23that organization licensee's racing meeting, may maintain a
24system whereby advance deposit wagering may take place or an
25organization licensee, with the consent of the horsemen
26association representing the largest number of owners,

HB1075 Engrossed- 20 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race horses at
2that organization licensee's racing meeting, may contract with
3another person to carry out a system of advance deposit
4wagering. Such consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Only
5with respect to an appeal to the Board that consent for an
6organization licensee that maintains its own advance deposit
7wagering system is being unreasonably withheld, the Board
8shall issue a final order within 30 days after initiation of
9the appeal, and the organization licensee's advance deposit
10wagering system may remain operational during that 30-day
11period. The actions of any organization licensee who conducts
12advance deposit wagering or any person who has a contract with
13an organization licensee to conduct advance deposit wagering
14who conducts advance deposit wagering on or after January 1,
152013 and prior to June 7, 2013 (the effective date of Public
16Act 98-18) taken in reliance on the changes made to this
17subsection (g) by Public Act 98-18 are hereby validated,
18provided payment of all applicable pari-mutuel taxes are
19remitted to the Board. All advance deposit wagers placed from
20within Illinois must be placed through a Board-approved
21advance deposit wagering licensee; no other entity may accept
22an advance deposit wager from a person within Illinois. All
23advance deposit wagering is subject to any rules adopted by
24the Board. The Board may adopt rules necessary to regulate
25advance deposit wagering through the use of emergency
26rulemaking in accordance with Section 5-45 of the Illinois

HB1075 Engrossed- 21 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1Administrative Procedure Act. The General Assembly finds that
2the adoption of rules to regulate advance deposit wagering is
3deemed an emergency and necessary for the public interest,
4safety, and welfare. An advance deposit wagering licensee may
5retain all moneys as agreed to by contract with an
6organization licensee. Any moneys retained by the organization
7licensee from advance deposit wagering, not including moneys
8retained by the advance deposit wagering licensee, shall be
9paid 50% to the organization licensee's purse account and 50%
10to the organization licensee. With the exception of any
11organization licensee that is owned by a publicly traded
12company that is incorporated in a state other than Illinois
13and advance deposit wagering licensees under contract with
14such organization licensees, organization licensees that
15maintain advance deposit wagering systems and advance deposit
16wagering licensees that contract with organization licensees
17shall provide sufficiently detailed monthly accountings to the
18horsemen association representing the largest number of
19owners, trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race
20horses at that organization licensee's racing meeting so that
21the horsemen association, as an interested party, can confirm
22the accuracy of the amounts paid to the purse account at the
23horsemen association's affiliated organization licensee from
24advance deposit wagering. If more than one breed races at the
25same race track facility, then the 50% of the moneys to be paid
26to an organization licensee's purse account shall be allocated

HB1075 Engrossed- 22 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1among all organization licensees' purse accounts operating at
2that race track facility proportionately based on the actual
3number of host days that the Board grants to that breed at that
4race track facility in the current calendar year. To the
5extent any fees from advance deposit wagering conducted in
6Illinois for wagers in Illinois or other states have been
7placed in escrow or otherwise withheld from wagers pending a
8determination of the legality of advance deposit wagering, no
9action shall be brought to declare such wagers or the
10disbursement of any fees previously escrowed illegal.
11 (1) Between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. an
12 inter-track wagering licensee other than the host track
13 may supplement the host track simulcast program with
14 additional simulcast races or race programs, provided that
15 between January 1 and the third Friday in February of any
16 year, inclusive, if no live thoroughbred racing is
17 occurring in Illinois during this period, only
18 thoroughbred races may be used for supplemental interstate
19 simulcast purposes. The Board shall withhold approval for
20 a supplemental interstate simulcast only if it finds that
21 the simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of
22 racing. A supplemental interstate simulcast may be
23 transmitted from an inter-track wagering licensee to its
24 affiliated non-host licensees. The interstate commission
25 fee for a supplemental interstate simulcast shall be paid
26 by the non-host licensee and its affiliated non-host

HB1075 Engrossed- 23 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1 licensees receiving the simulcast.
2 (2) Between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. an
3 inter-track wagering licensee other than the host track
4 may receive supplemental interstate simulcasts only with
5 the consent of the host track, except when the Board finds
6 that the simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of
7 racing. Consent granted under this paragraph (2) to any
8 inter-track wagering licensee shall be deemed consent to
9 all non-host licensees. The interstate commission fee for
10 the supplemental interstate simulcast shall be paid by all
11 participating non-host licensees.
12 (3) Each licensee conducting interstate simulcast
13 wagering may retain, subject to the payment of all
14 applicable taxes and the purses, an amount not to exceed
15 17% of all money wagered. If any licensee conducts the
16 pari-mutuel system wagering on races conducted at
17 racetracks in another state or country, each such race or
18 race program shall be considered a separate racing day for
19 the purpose of determining the daily handle and computing
20 the privilege tax of that daily handle as provided in
21 subsection (a) of Section 27. Until January 1, 2000, from
22 the sums permitted to be retained pursuant to this
23 subsection, each inter-track wagering location licensee
24 shall pay 1% of the pari-mutuel handle wagered on
25 simulcast wagering to the Horse Racing Tax Allocation
26 Fund, subject to the provisions of subparagraph (B) of

HB1075 Engrossed- 24 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1 paragraph (11) of subsection (h) of Section 26 of this
2 Act.
3 (4) A licensee who receives an interstate simulcast
4 may combine its gross or net pools with pools at the
5 sending racetracks pursuant to rules established by the
6 Board. All licensees combining their gross pools at a
7 sending racetrack shall adopt the takeout percentages of
8 the sending racetrack. A licensee may also establish a
9 separate pool and takeout structure for wagering purposes
10 on races conducted at race tracks outside of the State of
11 Illinois. The licensee may permit pari-mutuel wagers
12 placed in other states or countries to be combined with
13 its gross or net wagering pools or other wagering pools.
14 (5) After the payment of the interstate commission fee
15 (except for the interstate commission fee on a
16 supplemental interstate simulcast, which shall be paid by
17 the host track and by each non-host licensee through the
18 host track) and all applicable State and local taxes,
19 except as provided in subsection (g) of Section 27 of this
20 Act, the remainder of moneys retained from simulcast
21 wagering pursuant to this subsection (g), and Section 26.2
22 shall be divided as follows:
23 (A) For interstate simulcast wagers made at a host
24 track, 50% to the host track and 50% to purses at the
25 host track.
26 (B) For wagers placed on interstate simulcast

HB1075 Engrossed- 25 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b

2 subparagraphs (1) and (2), and separately pooled races
3 conducted outside of the State of Illinois made at a
4 non-host licensee, 25% to the host track, 25% to the
5 non-host licensee, and 50% to the purses at the host
6 track.
7 (6) Notwithstanding any provision in this Act to the
8 contrary, non-host licensees who derive their licenses
9 from a track located in a county with a population in
10 excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi River
11 may receive supplemental interstate simulcast races at all
12 times subject to Board approval, which shall be withheld
13 only upon a finding that a supplemental interstate
14 simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of racing.
15 (7) Effective January 1, 2017, notwithstanding any
16 provision of this Act to the contrary, after payment of
17 all applicable State and local taxes and interstate
18 commission fees, non-host licensees who derive their
19 licenses from a track located in a county with a
20 population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the
21 Mississippi River shall retain 50% of the retention from
22 interstate simulcast wagers and shall pay 50% to purses at
23 the track from which the non-host licensee derives its
24 license.
25 (7.1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act
26 to the contrary, if no standardbred racing is conducted at

HB1075 Engrossed- 26 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b

12 account; and
13 (B) Twenty percent shall be deposited into the
14 Illinois Colt Stakes Purse Distribution Fund and shall
15 be paid to purses for standardbred races for Illinois
16 conceived and foaled horses conducted at any county
17 fairgrounds. The moneys deposited into the Fund
18 pursuant to this subparagraph (B) shall be deposited

11 borders the Mississippi River and its affiliated non-host
12 licensees shall not be entitled to share in any retention
13 generated on racing, inter-track wagering, or simulcast
14 wagering at any other Illinois wagering facility.
15 (8.1) Notwithstanding any provisions in this Act to
16 the contrary, if 2 organization licensees are conducting
17 standardbred race meetings concurrently between the hours
18 of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., after payment of all

8 tracks to receive the simulcast of any or all races
9 conducted at the Springfield or DuQuoin State fairgrounds
10 and include all such races as part of their simulcast
11 programs.
12 (13) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act,
13 in the event that the total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on
14 Illinois horse races at all wagering facilities in any
15 calendar year is less than 75% of the total Illinois
16 pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse races at all such

18 wagering facility that has an annual total Illinois
19 pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse races that is less
20 than 75% of the total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on
21 Illinois horse races at such wagering facility for
22 calendar year 1994, shall be permitted to receive, from
23 any amount otherwise payable to the purse account at the
24 race track with which the wagering facility is affiliated
25 in the succeeding calendar year, an amount equal to 2% of
26 the differential in total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on

HB1075 Engrossed- 30 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1 Illinois horse races at the wagering facility between that
2 calendar year in question and 1994 provided, however, that
3 a wagering facility shall not be entitled to any such
4 payment until the Board certifies in writing to the
5 wagering facility the amount to which the wagering
6 facility is entitled and a schedule for payment of the
7 amount to the wagering facility, based on: (i) the racing

3 purse account shall be the amount certified by the
4 Illinois Racing Board in January to be transferred from

21 (6) All wagering under such license is subject to this
22 Act and to the rules and regulations from time to time
23 prescribed by the Board, and every such license issued by
24 the Board shall contain a recital to that effect.
25 (7) An inter-track wagering licensee or inter-track
26 wagering location licensee may accept wagers at the track

14 track at which a horse race meeting has been licensed in
15 the current year, unless the person having operating
16 control of such race track has given its written consent
17 to such inter-track wagering location licensees, which
18 consent must be filed with the Board at or prior to the

1 control of such race track has given its written consent
2 to such inter-track wagering location licensees, which
3 consent must be filed with the Board at or prior to the
4 time application is made.
5 (8.2) Inter-track wagering or simulcast wagering shall
6 not be conducted by an inter-track wagering location
7 licensee at any location within 100 feet of an existing

15 not to property boundaries. However, inter-track wagering
16 or simulcast wagering may be conducted at a site within
17 100 feet of a church or school if such church or school has
18 been erected or established after the Board issues the
19 original inter-track wagering location license at the site

21 conduct inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering only
22 in areas that are zoned for commercial or manufacturing
23 purposes or in areas for which a special use has been
24 approved by the local zoning authority. However, no
25 license to conduct inter-track wagering and simulcast
26 wagering shall be granted by the Board with respect to any

HB1075 Engrossed- 37 -LRB103 02622 AWJ 47628 b
1 inter-track wagering location within the jurisdiction of
2 any local zoning authority which has, by ordinance or by
3 resolution, prohibited the establishment of an inter-track
4 wagering location within its jurisdiction. However,
5 inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering may be
