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

HB3208- 5 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 in gross income under Section 78 of the Internal
2 Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the same
3 person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or

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

HB3208- 6 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
2 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
3 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
4 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
5 and terms and the principal purpose for the
6 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
7 or
8 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
9 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
10 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
11 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
12 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
13 to the application or use of an alternative method
14 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
15 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
16 Director from making any other adjustment
17 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
18 for any tax year beginning after the effective
19 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
20 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
21 Department and such regulations provide methods
22 and standards by which the Department will utilize
23 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
24 (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
25 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
26 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or

HB3208- 7 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
2 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
3 foreign person who would be a member of the same
4 unitary business group but for the fact that the
5 foreign person's business activity outside the United
6 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
7 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
8 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
9 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
10 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
11 from being included in the unitary business group
12 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
13 business income under different subsections of Section
14 304. The addition modification required by this
15 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
16 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
17 group for the same taxable year and received by the
18 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
19 business group (including amounts included in gross
20 income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
21 Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income
22 under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with
23 respect to the stock of the same person to whom the
24 intangible expenses and costs were directly or
25 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
26 sentence does not apply to the extent that the same

HB3208- 8 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
2 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of
3 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
4 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
5 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
6 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
7 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
8 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
9 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
10 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
11 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
12 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
13 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
14 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
15 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
16 similar types of intangible assets.
17 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
18 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
19 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
20 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
21 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
22 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
23 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
24 with respect to such item; or
25 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
26 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or

HB3208- 9 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
2 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
3 following:
4 (a) the person during the same taxable
5 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
6 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
7 not a related member, and
8 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
9 intangible expense or cost between the
10 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
11 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
12 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
13 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
14 or
15 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
16 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
17 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
18 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
19 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
20 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
21 writing to the application or use of an
22 alternative method of apportionment under Section
23 304(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

HB3208- 10 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 for any tax year beginning after the effective
2 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
3 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
4 Department and such regulations provide methods
5 and standards by which the Department will utilize
6 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
7 (D-19) 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

HB3208- 11 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
2 were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
3 accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
4 extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
5 the addition modification required under Section
6 203(a)(2)(D-17) or Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this
7 Act; .
8 (D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after

1 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
2 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
3 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
4 required to apportion business income under different
5 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
6 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
7 extent that dividends were included in base income of
8 the unitary group for the same taxable year and
9 received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
10 taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
11 included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951

16 accrued, or incurred.
17 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
18 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
19 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who

23 with respect to such interest; or
24 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
25 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
26 the taxpayer can establish, based on a

HB3208- 35 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
2 following:
3 (a) the person, during the same taxable
4 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
5 to a person that is not a related member, and
6 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
7 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
8 person did not have as a principal purpose the
9 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
10 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
11 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
12 terms; or
13 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
14 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
15 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
16 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
17 and terms and the principal purpose for the
18 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
19 or
20 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
21 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
22 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
23 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
24 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
25 to the application or use of an alternative method
26 of apportionment under Section 304(f).

HB3208- 36 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
2 Director from making any other adjustment
3 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
4 for any tax year beginning after the effective
5 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
6 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
7 Department and such regulations provide methods
8 and standards by which the Department will utilize
9 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
10 (E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
11 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
12 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
13 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
14 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
15 foreign person who would be a member of the same
16 unitary business group but for the fact that the
17 foreign person's business activity outside the United
18 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
19 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
20 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
21 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
22 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
23 from being included in the unitary business group
24 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
25 business income under different subsections of Section
26 304. The addition modification required by this

HB3208- 37 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
2 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
3 group for the same taxable year and received by the
4 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
5 business group (including amounts included in gross
6 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
7 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
8 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
9 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
10 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
11 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
12 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
13 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
14 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
15 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
16 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
17 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
18 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
19 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
20 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
21 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
22 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
23 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
24 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
25 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
26 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service

HB3208- 38 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
2 similar types of intangible assets.
3 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
4 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
5 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
7 is subject in a foreign country or state, other

2 gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue
3 Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the
4 computation of taxable income;
5 (G-5) For taxable years ending after December 31,
6 1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation
7 costs that the trust or estate deducted in computing
8 adjusted gross income and for which the trust or
9 estate claims a credit under subsection (l) of Section
10 201;
11 (G-10) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, an
12 amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken
13 on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for the
14 taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of

16 (G-11) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,
17 or otherwise disposes of property for which the
18 taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an
19 addition modification under subparagraph (G-10), then

21 deductions taken in all taxable years under
22 subparagraph (R) with respect to that property.
23 If the taxpayer continues to own property through
24 the last day of the last tax year for which the
25 taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
26 federal income tax purposes and for which the taxpayer

HB3208- 58 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 was allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction

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

HB3208- 59 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b

14 with respect to such interest; or
15 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
16 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
17 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
18 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
19 following:
20 (a) the person, during the same taxable
21 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
22 to a person that is not a related member, and
23 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
24 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
25 person did not have as a principal purpose the
26 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid

HB3208- 60 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
2 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
3 terms; or
4 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
5 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
6 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
7 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
8 and terms and the principal purpose for the
9 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
10 or
11 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
12 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
13 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
14 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or

17 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
18 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
19 Director from making any other adjustment
20 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
21 for any tax year beginning after the effective
22 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
23 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
24 Department and such regulations provide methods
25 and standards by which the Department will utilize
26 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;

HB3208- 61 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 (G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
2 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
3 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
4 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
5 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
6 foreign person who would be a member of the same
7 unitary business group but for the fact that the
8 foreign person's business activity outside the United
9 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
10 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
11 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
12 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
13 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
14 from being included in the unitary business group
15 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
16 business income under different subsections of Section
17 304. The addition modification required by this
18 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
19 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
20 group for the same taxable year and received by the

23 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
24 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
25 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
26 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom

HB3208- 62 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
2 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
3 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
4 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
5 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of
6 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
7 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
8 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the
9 direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or
10 management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other
11 disposition of intangible property; (2) losses
12 incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring
13 transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty,
14 patent, technical, and copyright fees; (4) licensing
15 fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For
16 purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property"
17 includes patents, patent applications, trade names,
18 trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
19 trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
20 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
21 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
22 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
23 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
24 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
25 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
26 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income

HB3208- 63 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 with respect to such item; or
2 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
3 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
4 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
5 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
6 following:
7 (a) the person during the same taxable
8 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
9 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
10 not a related member, and
11 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
12 intangible expense or cost between the
13 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
14 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
15 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
16 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
17 or
18 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
19 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
20 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
21 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
22 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
23 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
24 writing to the application or use of an
25 alternative method of apportionment under Section
26 304(f);

HB3208- 64 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
2 Director from making any other adjustment
3 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
4 for any tax year beginning after the effective
5 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
6 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
7 Department and such regulations provide methods
8 and standards by which the Department will utilize
9 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
10 (G-14) For taxable years ending on or after
11 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
12 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
13 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
14 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
15 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
16 business group but for the fact that the person is
17 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
18 included in the unitary business group because he or
19 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
20 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
21 addition modification required by this subparagraph
22 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
23 included in base income of the unitary group for the
24 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
25 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
26 (including amounts included in gross income under

HB3208- 65 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
2 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
3 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
4 stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
5 were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or

9 203(c)(2)(G-12) or Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this
10 Act;
11 (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

7 gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue
8 Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the
9 computation of taxable income;
10 (D-5) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, an
11 amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken
12 on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for the

HB3208- 77 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b

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

8 (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

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

HB3208- 79 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 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
6 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
7 and terms and the principal purpose for the
8 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
9 or
10 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
11 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
12 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
13 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or

15 to the application or use of an alternative method
16 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
17 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
18 Director from making any other adjustment
19 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
20 for any tax year beginning after the effective
21 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
22 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
23 Department and such regulations provide methods
24 and standards by which the Department will utilize
25 its authority under Section 404 of this Act; and
26 (D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible

HB3208- 80 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
2 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
3 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
4 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
5 foreign person who would be a member of the same
6 unitary business group but for the fact that the
7 foreign person's business activity outside the United
8 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
9 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
10 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
11 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
12 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
13 from being included in the unitary business group
14 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
15 business income under different subsections of Section
16 304. The addition modification required by this
17 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
18 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
19 group for the same taxable year and received by the
20 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
21 business group (including amounts included in gross
22 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
23 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
24 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
25 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
26 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or

HB3208- 81 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
2 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
3 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
4 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
5 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
6 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
7 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or

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

HB3208- 82 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
2 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
3 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
4 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
5 following:
6 (a) the person during the same taxable
7 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
8 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
9 not a related member, and
10 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
11 intangible expense or cost between the
12 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
13 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
14 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
15 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
16 or
17 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
18 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
19 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
20 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
21 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
22 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
23 writing to the application or use of an
24 alternative method of apportionment under Section
25 304(f);
26 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the

HB3208- 83 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 Director from making any other adjustment
2 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
3 for any tax year beginning after the effective
4 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
5 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the

7 and standards by which the Department will utilize
8 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
9 (D-9) For taxable years ending on or after
10 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
11 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
12 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
13 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
14 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
15 business group but for the fact that the person is
16 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
17 included in the unitary business group because he or
18 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
19 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
20 addition modification required by this subparagraph
21 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
22 included in base income of the unitary group for the
23 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
24 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
25 (including amounts included in gross income under
26 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code

HB3208- 84 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
2 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
3 stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
4 were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or

8 203(d)(2)(D-7) or Section 203(d)(2)(D-8) of this Act;
9 (D-10) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

13 and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted
14 gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall
15 mean the amount of gross income, adjusted gross income or
16 taxable income properly reportable for federal income tax
17 purposes for the taxable year under the provisions of the
18 Internal Revenue Code. Taxable income may be less than
19 zero. However, for taxable years ending on or after
20 December 31, 1986, net operating loss carryforwards from
21 taxable years ending prior to December 31, 1986, may not
22 exceed the sum of federal taxable income for the taxable
23 year before net operating loss deduction, plus the excess
24 of addition modifications over subtraction modifications
25 for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to

HB3208- 93 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount
2 in excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as
3 defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the

5 of a corporation (other than a Subchapter S corporation),
6 trust, or estate is less than zero and addition
7 modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph
8 (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or
9 subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for
10 trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an
11 addition modification must be made under those
12 subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the
13 taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is
14 applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or
15 under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection
16 (e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the
17 Internal Revenue Code.
18 (2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of
19 this subsection, the taxable income properly reportable
20 for federal income tax purposes shall mean:
21 (A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case
22 of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed
23 by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life
24 insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of
25 distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus
26 accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the

HB3208- 94 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 Internal Revenue Code;
2 (B) Certain other insurance companies. In the case
3 of mutual insurance companies subject to the tax
4 imposed by Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code,
5 insurance company taxable income;
6 (C) Regulated investment companies. In the case of
7 a regulated investment company subject to the tax
8 imposed by Section 852 of the Internal Revenue Code,
9 investment company taxable income;
10 (D) Real estate investment trusts. In the case of
11 a real estate investment trust subject to the tax
12 imposed by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code,
13 real estate investment trust taxable income;
14 (E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a
15 corporation which is a member of an affiliated group
16 of corporations filing a consolidated income tax
17 return for the taxable year for federal income tax
18 purposes, taxable income determined as if such
19 corporation had filed a separate return for federal
20 income tax purposes for the taxable year and each
21 preceding taxable year for which it was a member of an
22 affiliated group. For purposes of this subparagraph,
23 the taxpayer's separate taxable income shall be
24 determined as if the election provided by Section
25 243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code had been in
26 effect for all such years;

HB3208- 95 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
2 corporation or association, the taxable income of such
3 organization determined in accordance with the
4 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the
5 Internal Revenue Code, but without regard to the
6 prohibition against offsetting losses from patronage
7 activities against income from nonpatronage
8 activities; except that a cooperative corporation or
9 association may make an election to follow its federal
10 income tax treatment of patronage losses and
11 nonpatronage losses. In the event such election is
12 made, such losses shall be computed and carried over
13 in a manner consistent with subsection (a) of Section
14 207 of this Act and apportioned by the apportionment
15 factor reported by the cooperative on its Illinois
16 income tax return filed for the taxable year in which
17 the losses are incurred. The election shall be
18 effective for all taxable years with original returns
19 due on or after the date of the election. In addition,
20 the cooperative may file an amended return or returns,
21 as allowed under this Act, to provide that the
22 election shall be effective for losses incurred or
23 carried forward for taxable years occurring prior to
24 the date of the election. Once made, the election may
25 only be revoked upon approval of the Director. The
26 Department shall adopt rules setting forth

HB3208- 96 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 requirements for documenting the elections and any
2 resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
3 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
4 elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
5 existing law;
6 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
7 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
8 effect an election for the taxable year under Section
9 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income
10 of such corporation determined in accordance with
11 Section 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except
12 that taxable income shall take into account those
13 items which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
14 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and
15 (ii) a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
16 effect a federal election to opt out of the provisions
17 of the Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have
18 applied instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules
19 as in effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of
20 such corporation determined in accordance with the
21 federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1,
22 1982; and
23 (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
24 taxable income determined in accordance with Section
25 703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
26 income shall take into account those items which are

HB3208- 97 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
2 but which would be taken into account by an individual
3 in calculating his taxable income.
4 (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
5 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
6 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
7 business has been classified as business income and in a
8 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
9 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
10 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
11 related to that asset or business that generated the
12 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
13 business income in the year of the disposition of the
14 asset or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to
15 Illinois using the greater of the apportionment fraction
16 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act
17 for the taxable year or the average of the apportionment
18 fractions computed for the business under Section 304 of
19 this Act for the taxable year and for the 2 immediately
20 preceding taxable years.
21 (f) Valuation limitation amount.
22 (1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
23 referred to in subsections (a)(2)(G), (c)(2)(I) and
24 (d)(2)(E) is an amount equal to:
25 (A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation

HB3208- 98 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
2 under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
3 Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
4 which such gain was reported for the taxable year;
5 plus
6 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
7 1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
8 capital gain) for all property in respect of which
9 such gain was reported for federal income tax purposes
10 for the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for
11 the taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount
12 of such gain included in the amount determined under
13 subsection (a)(2)(F) or (c)(2)(H).
14 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.
15 (A) If the fair market value of property referred
16 to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on
17 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
18 amount for such property is the lesser of (i) the
19 excess of such fair market value over the taxpayer's
20 basis (for determining gain) for such property on that
21 date (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
22 effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
23 and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
24 respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of
25 such property.
26 (B) If the fair market value of property referred

HB3208- 99 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1 to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
2 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
3 amount for such property is that amount which bears
4 the same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of
5 the property for federal income tax purposes for the
6 taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
7 that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
8 property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
9 full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
10 period for the property.
11 (C) The Department shall prescribe such
12 regulations as may be necessary to carry out the
13 purposes of this paragraph.
14 (g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
15otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
16to be deducted more than once.
17 (h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by
18this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on
19the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into
20account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or
21taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable
22year, or in the amount of such items entering into the
23computation of base income and net income under this Act for
24such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of

HB3208- 100 -LRB102 09942 HLH 15260 b
1August 1, 1969 or otherwise.
