"Section 5. The Illinois Lottery Law is amended by
changing Sections 2, 9.1, 20, 21.5, 21.6, 21.7, 21.8, 21.9,
21.10, 21.11, and 21.13 and by adding Sections 21.4 and 21.15
as follows:
(20 ILCS 1605/2) (from Ch. 120, par. 1152)
Sec. 2. This Act is enacted to implement and establish
within the State a lottery to be conducted by the State through
the Department. The entire net proceeds of the Lottery are to
be used for the support of the State's Common School Fund,
except as provided in subsection (o) of Section 9.1 and
Sections 21.4 21.5, 21.6, 21.7, 21.8, 21.9, 21.10, 21.11,

10200SB4020ham002 - 2 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
it is in the public interest for the Department to conduct the
functions of the Lottery with the assistance of a private
manager under a management agreement overseen by the
Department. The Department shall be accountable to the General
Assembly and the people of the State through a comprehensive
system of regulation, audits, reports, and enduring
operational oversight. The Department's ongoing conduct of the
Lottery through a management agreement with a private manager
shall act to promote and ensure the integrity, security,
honesty, and fairness of the Lottery's operation and
administration. It is the intent of the General Assembly that
the Department shall conduct the Lottery with the assistance
of a private manager under a management agreement at all times
in a manner consistent with 18 U.S.C. 1307(a)(1), 1307(b)(1),
1953(b)(4).
Beginning with Fiscal Year 2018 and every year thereafter,
any moneys transferred from the State Lottery Fund to the
Common School Fund shall be supplemental to, and not in lieu
of, any other money due to be transferred to the Common School
Fund by law or appropriation.

"Offeror" means a person or group of persons that responds
to a request for qualifications under this Section.
"Request for qualifications" means all materials and
documents prepared by the Department to solicit the following
from offerors:
(1) Statements of qualifications.
(2) Proposals to enter into a management agreement,
including the identity of any prospective vendor or
vendors that the offeror intends to initially engage to

management agreement.
"Final offer" means the last proposal submitted by an

including the identity of any prospective vendor or vendors
that the offeror intends to initially engage to assist the

private manager for the total management of the Lottery with
integrated functions, such as lottery game design, supply of
goods and services, and advertising and as specified in this
Section.
(c) Pursuant to the terms of this subsection, the

10200SB4020ham002 - 4 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
Department shall endeavor to expeditiously terminate the
existing contracts in support of the Lottery in effect on July
13, 2009 (the effective date of Public Act 96-37) in
connection with the selection of the private manager. As part
of its obligation to terminate these contracts and select the
private manager, the Department shall establish a mutually
agreeable timetable to transfer the functions of existing
contractors to the private manager so that existing Lottery
operations are not materially diminished or impaired during
the transition. To that end, the Department shall do the
following:
(1) where such contracts contain a provision
authorizing termination upon notice, the Department shall
provide notice of termination to occur upon the mutually
agreed timetable for transfer of functions;
(2) upon the expiration of any initial term or renewal
term of the current Lottery contracts, the Department
shall not renew such contract for a term extending beyond
the mutually agreed timetable for transfer of functions;
or
(3) in the event any current contract provides for
termination of that contract upon the implementation of a
contract with the private manager, the Department shall
perform all necessary actions to terminate the contract on
the date that coincides with the mutually agreed timetable
for transfer of functions.

10200SB4020ham002 - 5 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
If the contracts to support the current operation of the
Lottery in effect on July 13, 2009 (the effective date of
Public Act 96-34) are not subject to termination as provided
for in this subsection (c), then the Department may include a
provision in the contract with the private manager specifying
a mutually agreeable methodology for incorporation.
(c-5) The Department shall include provisions in the
management agreement whereby the private manager shall, for a
fee, and pursuant to a contract negotiated with the Department
(the "Employee Use Contract"), utilize the services of current
Department employees to assist in the administration and
operation of the Lottery. The Department shall be the employer
of all such bargaining unit employees assigned to perform such
work for the private manager, and such employees shall be
State employees, as defined by the Personnel Code. Department
employees shall operate under the same employment policies,
rules, regulations, and procedures, as other employees of the
Department. In addition, neither historical representation
rights under the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, nor
existing collective bargaining agreements, shall be disturbed
by the management agreement with the private manager for the
management of the Lottery.

provide the Department with advance notice of any
operating decision that bears significantly on the public
interest, including, but not limited to, decisions on the
kinds of games to be offered to the public and decisions
affecting the relative risk and reward of the games being
offered, so the Department has a reasonable opportunity to

10200SB4020ham002 - 7 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
evaluate and countermand that decision.
(5) A provision providing for compensation of the
private manager that may consist of, among other things, a
fee for services and a performance based bonus as
consideration for managing the Lottery, including terms
that may provide the private manager with an increase in
compensation if Lottery revenues grow by a specified

officers and employees.

(19) A provision requiring the private manager to
engage in an open and competitive bidding process for any
procurement having a cost in excess of $50,000 that is not
a part of the private manager's final offer. The process
shall favor the selection of a vendor deemed to have

make regular purchases on the Internet;
(2) the offeror's ability to address the State's
concern with the social effects of gambling on those who
can least afford to do so;
(3) the offeror's ability to provide the most
successful management of the Lottery for the benefit of
the people of the State based on current and past business
practices or plans of the offeror; and

management agreement. Any advisor retained by the Department
shall be disqualified from being an offeror. The Department
shall not include terms in the request for qualifications that
provide a material advantage whether directly or indirectly to
any potential offeror, or any contractor or subcontractor
presently providing goods, services, or equipment to the
Department to support the Lottery, including terms contained
in previous responses to requests for proposals or
qualifications submitted to Illinois, another State or foreign
government when those terms are uniquely associated with a

10200SB4020ham002 - 13 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
particular potential offeror, contractor, or subcontractor.
The request for proposals offered by the Department on

"22016176" is declared void.
(g) The Department shall select at least 2 offerors as
finalists to potentially serve as the private manager no later

explain its proposal to the Department and the Governor or the

the presentations. The Governor or a designee shall attend the

10200SB4020ham002 - 14 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
public hearing. After the public hearing, the Department shall
have 14 calendar days to recommend to the Governor whether a
management agreement should be entered into with a particular
finalist. After reviewing the Department's recommendation, the
Governor may accept or reject the Department's recommendation,
and shall select a final offeror as the private manager by
publication of a notice in the Illinois Procurement Bulletin
on or before September 15, 2010. The Governor shall include in
the notice a detailed explanation and the reasons why the
final offeror is superior to other offerors and will provide
management services in a manner that best achieves the
objectives of this Section. The Governor shall also sign the
management agreement with the private manager.
(i) Any action to contest the private manager selected by
the Governor under this Section must be brought within 7
calendar days after the publication of the notice of the
designation of the private manager as provided in subsection
(h) of this Section.
(j) The Lottery shall remain, for so long as a private
manager manages the Lottery in accordance with provisions of
this Act, a Lottery conducted by the State, and the State shall
not be authorized to sell or transfer the Lottery to a third
party.
(k) Any tangible personal property used exclusively in
connection with the lottery that is owned by the Department
and leased to the private manager shall be owned by the

10200SB4020ham002 - 15 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
Department in the name of the State and shall be considered to
be public property devoted to an essential public and
governmental function.
(l) The Department may exercise any of its powers under
this Section or any other law as necessary or desirable for the
execution of the Department's powers under this Section.
(m) Neither this Section nor any management agreement
entered into under this Section prohibits the General Assembly
from authorizing forms of gambling that are not in direct
competition with the Lottery. The forms of gambling authorized
by Public Act 101-31 constitute authorized forms of gambling
that are not in direct competition with the Lottery.
(n) The private manager shall be subject to a complete
investigation in the third, seventh, and tenth years of the
agreement (if the agreement is for a 10-year term) by the
Department in cooperation with the Auditor General to
determine whether the private manager has complied with this
Section and the management agreement. The private manager
shall bear the cost of an investigation or reinvestigation of
the private manager under this subsection.
(o) The powers conferred by this Section are in addition
and supplemental to the powers conferred by any other law. If
any other law or rule is inconsistent with this Section,

proceeding, publication, notice, consent, approval, order, or
act by the Department or any other officer, Department,
agency, or instrumentality of the State or any political
subdivision is required for the Department to enter into a
management agreement under this Section. This Section contains
full and complete authority for the Department to approve any
contracts entered into by a private manager with a vendor
providing goods, services, or both goods and services to the
private manager under the terms of the management agreement,
including subcontractors of such vendors.
Upon receipt of a written request from the Chief
Procurement Officer, the Department shall provide to the Chief
Procurement Officer a complete and un-redacted copy of the
management agreement or any contract that is subject to the
Department's approval authority under this subsection (o). The

Chief Procurement Officer in his or her written request, but
no later than 5 business days after the request is received by
the Department. The Chief Procurement Officer must retain any
portions of the management agreement or of any contract
designated by the Department as confidential, proprietary, or
trade secret information in complete confidence pursuant to

10200SB4020ham002 - 17 - LRB102 22803 AMQ 38608 a
subsection (g) of Section 7 of the Freedom of Information Act.
The Department shall also provide the Chief Procurement
Officer with reasonable advance written notice of any contract
that is pending Department approval.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section to the
contrary, the Chief Procurement Officer shall adopt
administrative rules, including emergency rules, to establish
a procurement process to select a successor private manager if
a private management agreement has been terminated. The
selection process shall at a minimum take into account the
criteria set forth in items (1) through (4) of subsection (e)
of this Section and may include provisions consistent with
subsections (f), (g), (h), and (i) of this Section. The Chief
Procurement Officer shall also implement and administer the
adopted selection process upon the termination of a private
management agreement. The Department, after the Chief
Procurement Officer certifies that the procurement process has
been followed in accordance with the rules adopted under this
subsection (o), shall select a final offeror as the private
manager and sign the management agreement with the private
manager.
Except as provided in Sections 21.4, 21.5, 21.6, 21.7,
21.8, 21.9, 21.10, 21.11, 21.12, and 21.13, and 21.15 , the

and shares sold in the following priority and manner:

administration of the Lottery, including the payment of

proceeds transferred in the corresponding month of fiscal
year 2009, as adjusted for inflation, to the Common School
Fund.
(4) On or before September 30 of each fiscal year,
deposit any estimated remaining proceeds from the prior
fiscal year, subject to payments under items (1), (2), and
(3), into the Capital Projects Fund. Beginning in fiscal
year 2019, the amount deposited shall be increased or
decreased each year by the amount the estimated payment
differs from the amount determined from each year-end
financial audit. Only remaining net deficits from prior
fiscal years may reduce the requirement to deposit these
funds, as determined by the annual financial audit.
(p) The Department shall be subject to the following
reporting and information request requirements:
(1) the Department shall submit written quarterly
reports to the Governor and the General Assembly on the
activities and actions of the private manager selected
