   41  empire  state  film  production  credit, as proposed in legislative bill
   42  numbers S.6610-C and A.9710-D, is amended to read as follows:
   43    (e) Additional pool 2 - The aggregate amount of tax credits allowed in

    1  AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF TAX CREDITS AVAILABLE FROM ADDITIONAL POOL 2 FOR THE
    2  EMPIRE STATE FILM PRODUCTION TAX CREDIT HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY  ALLOCATED,

   17  state film production credit shall be claimed before the  later  of  (1)
   18  the  taxable  year  the production of the qualified film is complete, or

   25  empire state film production credit, relating to the empire  state  film
   26  production  credit, as proposed in legislative bill numbers S.6610-C and
   27  A.9710-D, takes effect.
   28    S 2. Severability clause. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivi-
   29  sion, section or part of this act shall be  adjudged  by  any  court  of
   30  competent  jurisdiction  to  be invalid, such judgment shall not affect,
   31  impair, or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall  be  confined  in
   32  its  operation  to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, section
   33  or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which such judg-
   34  ment shall have been rendered. It is hereby declared to be the intent of
   35  the legislature that this act would  have  been  enacted  even  if  such
