(35 ILCS 5/203) (from Ch. 120, par. 2-203)
Sec. 203. Base income defined.
(a) Individuals.

09800HB0390ham001 - 2 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
to the taxpayer as interest or dividends during the
taxable year to the extent excluded from gross income
in the computation of adjusted gross income, except
stock dividends of qualified public utilities
described in Section 305(e) of the Internal Revenue
Code;
(B) An amount equal to the amount of tax imposed by
this Act to the extent deducted from gross income in
the computation of adjusted gross income for the
taxable year;
(C) An amount equal to the amount received during
the taxable year as a recovery or refund of real
property taxes paid with respect to the taxpayer's
principal residence under the Revenue Act of 1939 and
for which a deduction was previously taken under
subparagraph (L) of this paragraph (2) prior to July 1,
1991, the retrospective application date of Article 4
of Public Act 87-17. In the case of multi-unit or
multi-use structures and farm dwellings, the taxes on
the taxpayer's principal residence shall be that
portion of the total taxes for the entire property
which is attributable to such principal residence;
(D) An amount equal to the amount of the capital
gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue
Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the
computation of adjusted gross income;

09800HB0390ham001 - 3 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
(D-5) An amount, to the extent not included in
adjusted gross income, equal to the amount of money
withdrawn by the taxpayer in the taxable year from a
medical care savings account and the interest earned on
the account in the taxable year of a withdrawal
pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 20 of the Medical
Care Savings Account Act or subsection (b) of Section
20 of the Medical Care Savings Account Act of 2000;
(D-10) For taxable years ending after December 31,
1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation costs
that the individual deducted in computing adjusted
gross income and for which the individual claims a
credit under subsection (l) of Section 201;
(D-15) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, an
amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken
on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for the
taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the
Internal Revenue Code;
(D-16) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,
or otherwise disposes of property for which the
taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an
addition modification under subparagraph (D-15), then
an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the
deductions taken in all taxable years under
subparagraph (Z) with respect to that property.
If the taxpayer continues to own property through

09800HB0390ham001 - 4 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
the last day of the last tax year for which the
taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
federal income tax purposes and for which the taxpayer
was allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction
modification under subparagraph (Z), then an amount
equal to that subtraction modification.
The taxpayer is required to make the addition
modification under this subparagraph only once with
respect to any one piece of property;
(D-17) An amount equal to the amount otherwise
allowed as a deduction in computing base income for
interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a
member of the same unitary business group but for the
fact that foreign person's business activity outside
the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
who would be a member of the same unitary business
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
required to apportion business income under different
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the

09800HB0390ham001 - 5 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
extent that dividends were included in base income of
the unitary group for the same taxable year and
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
included in gross income under Sections 951 through 964
of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in
gross income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue
Code) with respect to the stock of the same person to
whom the interest was paid, accrued, or incurred.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
is subject in a foreign country or state, other
than a state which requires mandatory unitary
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
with respect to such interest; or
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
the taxpayer can establish, based on a
preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person, during the same taxable
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
to a person that is not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
interest expense between the taxpayer and the

09800HB0390ham001 - 6 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
person did not have as a principal purpose the
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
pursuant to a contract or agreement that
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
terms; or
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
to the application or use of an alternative method
of apportionment under Section 304(f).
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of
this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority

09800HB0390ham001 - 7 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
under Section 404 of this Act;
(D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
foreign person who would be a member of the same
unitary business group but for the fact that the
foreign person's business activity outside the United
States is 80% or more of that person's total business
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
the same unitary business group but for the fact that
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
from being included in the unitary business group
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
business income under different subsections of Section
304. The addition modification required by this
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
dividends were included in base income of the unitary
group for the same taxable year and received by the
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
business group (including amounts included in gross
income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under
Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect

09800HB0390ham001 - 8 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible
expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid,
incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not
apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a
reduction to the addition modification required under
Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this
subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs"
includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or
related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use,
maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange,
or any other disposition of intangible property; (2)
losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from
factoring transactions or discounting transactions;
(3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees;
(4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and
costs. For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible
property" includes patents, patent applications, trade
names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask
works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible
assets.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,

09800HB0390ham001 - 9 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
to such item; or
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person during the same taxable
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
intangible expense or cost to a person that is
not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
intangible expense or cost between the
taxpayer and the person did not have as a
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
or
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
writing to the application or use of an alternative
method of apportionment under Section 304(f);

09800HB0390ham001 - 10 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of
this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority
under Section 404 of this Act;
(D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
a person who would be a member of the same unitary
business group but for the fact that the person is
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
included in the unitary business group because he or
she is ordinarily required to apportion business
income under different subsections of Section 304. The
addition modification required by this subparagraph
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
included in base income of the unitary group for the
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
(including amounts included in gross income under

09800HB0390ham001 - 11 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) or
Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this Act.
(D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after
January 1, 2002 and ending on or before December 31,

of the State Treasurer Act, (ii) a distribution from
the Illinois Prepaid Tuition Trust Fund, or (iii) a

Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code that (I)
adopts and determines that its offering materials
comply with the College Savings Plans Network's

efforts to inform in-state residents of the existence
of in-state qualified tuition programs by informing

of in-state qualified tuition programs at least
annually, an amount equal to the amount excluded from
gross income under Section 529(c)(3)(B).
For the purposes of this subparagraph (D-20), a

The taxpayer is required to make the addition
modification under this subparagraph only once with

person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
who would be a member of the same unitary business
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
required to apportion business income under different
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
extent that dividends were included in base income of
the unitary group for the same taxable year and
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951

through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts
included in gross income under Section 78 of the
Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the
same person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or
incurred.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
is subject in a foreign country or state, other
than a state which requires mandatory unitary
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
with respect to such interest; or
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
the taxpayer can establish, based on a
preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person, during the same taxable
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
to a person that is not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
interest expense between the taxpayer and the
person did not have as a principal purpose the
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
pursuant to a contract or agreement that
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and

09800HB0390ham001 - 33 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
terms; or
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
to the application or use of an alternative method
of apportionment under Section 304(f).
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of
this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority
under Section 404 of this Act;
(E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or

09800HB0390ham001 - 34 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
foreign person who would be a member of the same
unitary business group but for the fact that the
foreign person's business activity outside the United
States is 80% or more of that person's total business
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
the same unitary business group but for the fact that
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
from being included in the unitary business group
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
business income under different subsections of Section
304. The addition modification required by this
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
dividends were included in base income of the unitary
group for the same taxable year and received by the
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
business group (including amounts included in gross
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same

09800HB0390ham001 - 35 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
dividends caused a reduction to the addition
modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
similar types of intangible assets.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
to such item; or
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or

09800HB0390ham001 - 36 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person during the same taxable
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
intangible expense or cost to a person that is
not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
intangible expense or cost between the
taxpayer and the person did not have as a
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
or
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
writing to the application or use of an alternative
method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of

09800HB0390ham001 - 37 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority
under Section 404 of this Act;
(E-14) For taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
a person who would be a member of the same unitary
business group but for the fact that the person is
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
included in the unitary business group because he or
she is ordinarily required to apportion business
income under different subsections of Section 304. The
addition modification required by this subparagraph
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
included in base income of the unitary group for the
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
(including amounts included in gross income under
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were

09800HB0390ham001 - 38 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The
preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that
the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition
modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) or
Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this Act;
(E-15) For taxable years beginning after December
31, 2008, any deduction for dividends paid by a captive
real estate investment trust that is allowed to a real
estate investment trust under Section 857(b)(2)(B) of
the Internal Revenue Code for dividends paid;

the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act,

December 31, 2013, any deduction allowed to the
taxpayer under Sections 243 through 246A of the

following amounts:

imposed by this Act which was refunded to the taxpayer

09800HB0390ham001 - 39 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
and included in such total for the taxable year;

under subparagraph (J), an amount equal to the sum of
all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections

for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2011,
amounts disallowed as deductions by Section 45G(e)(3)

the case of a life insurance company with gross income
from a decrease in reserves for the tax year) or
Section 807(b)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code (in
the case of a life insurance company allowed a

09800HB0390ham001 - 56 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
required to apportion business income under different
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification

with respect to such interest; or
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
to a person that is not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
interest expense between the taxpayer and the
person did not have as a principal purpose the
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
pursuant to a contract or agreement that
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
terms; or
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing

Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of

09800HB0390ham001 - 58 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a

expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in

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

09800HB0390ham001 - 59 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
business group (including amounts included in gross
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)

the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
dividends caused a reduction to the addition
modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
"intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the

trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs

indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
to such item; or
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person during the same taxable
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
intangible expense or cost to a person that is
not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
intangible expense or cost between the
taxpayer and the person did not have as a
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
or
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing

09800HB0390ham001 - 61 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
writing to the application or use of an alternative
method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
any tax year beginning after the effective date of
this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority
under Section 404 of this Act;
(G-14) For taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
a person who would be a member of the same unitary
business group but for the fact that the person is
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
included in the unitary business group because he or
she is ordinarily required to apportion business
income under different subsections of Section 304. The
addition modification required by this subparagraph
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were

09800HB0390ham001 - 62 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
included in base income of the unitary group for the
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
(including amounts included in gross income under
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock

Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this Act;

person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
who would be a member of the same unitary business

incurred.
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

is subject in a foreign country or state, other
than a state which requires mandatory unitary
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
with respect to such interest; or
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

the taxpayer can establish, based on a
preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person, during the same taxable

to a person that is not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
interest expense between the taxpayer and the
person did not have as a principal purpose the
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
pursuant to a contract or agreement that
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
terms; or
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or

09800HB0390ham001 - 76 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
terms and the principal purpose for the payment is

Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for

computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable

foreign person who would be a member of the same
unitary business group but for the fact that the

09800HB0390ham001 - 77 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
foreign person's business activity outside the United
States is 80% or more of that person's total business
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
the same unitary business group but for the fact that
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
from being included in the unitary business group
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
business income under different subsections of Section
304. The addition modification required by this
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
dividends were included in base income of the unitary
group for the same taxable year and received by the
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
business group (including amounts included in gross
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
dividends caused a reduction to the addition
modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,

09800HB0390ham001 - 78 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a

transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
similar types of intangible assets;
This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
to such item; or
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
following:
(a) the person during the same taxable

09800HB0390ham001 - 79 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
intangible expense or cost to a person that is
not a related member, and
(b) the transaction giving rise to the
intangible expense or cost between the
taxpayer and the person did not have as a
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
or
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
writing to the application or use of an alternative
method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
Director from making any other adjustment
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for

this amendment provided such adjustment is made
pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
and such regulations provide methods and standards
by which the Department will utilize its authority

under Section 404 of this Act;
(D-9) For taxable years ending on or after December
31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of insurance
premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a
deduction in computing base income, and that were paid,
accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a
person who would be a member of the same unitary
business group but for the fact that the person is
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
included in the unitary business group because he or
she is ordinarily required to apportion business
income under different subsections of Section 304. The
addition modification required by this subparagraph
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
included in base income of the unitary group for the
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
(including amounts included in gross income under
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were

modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) or

09800HB0390ham001 - 89 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
(e) Gross income; adjusted gross income; taxable income.
(1) In general. Subject to the provisions of paragraph
(2) and subsection (b) (3), for purposes of this Section
and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted
gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall
mean the amount of gross income, adjusted gross income or
taxable income properly reportable for federal income tax
purposes for the taxable year under the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code. Taxable income may be less than
zero. However, for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 1986, net operating loss carryforwards from
taxable years ending prior to December 31, 1986, may not
exceed the sum of federal taxable income for the taxable
year before net operating loss deduction, plus the excess
of addition modifications over subtraction modifications
for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to
December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount in
excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as
defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the
Internal Revenue Code, provided that when taxable income of
a corporation (other than a Subchapter S corporation),
trust, or estate is less than zero and addition
modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph
(E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or
subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for
trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an

09800HB0390ham001 - 90 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
addition modification must be made under those
subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the
taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is
applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or
under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection
(e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the Internal
Revenue Code.
(2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of this
subsection, the taxable income properly reportable for
federal income tax purposes shall mean:
(A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case
of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed
by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life
insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of
distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus
accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the
Internal Revenue Code;
(B) Certain other insurance companies. In the case
of mutual insurance companies subject to the tax
imposed by Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code,
insurance company taxable income;
(C) Regulated investment companies. In the case of
a regulated investment company subject to the tax

(D) Real estate investment trusts. In the case of a

09800HB0390ham001 - 91 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
real estate investment trust subject to the tax imposed
by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, real
estate investment trust taxable income;
(E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a
corporation which is a member of an affiliated group of
corporations filing a consolidated income tax return
for the taxable year for federal income tax purposes,
taxable income determined as if such corporation had
filed a separate return for federal income tax purposes
for the taxable year and each preceding taxable year
for which it was a member of an affiliated group. For
purposes of this subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate
taxable income shall be determined as if the election
provided by Section 243(b) (2) of the Internal Revenue
Code had been in effect for all such years;
(F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
corporation or association, the taxable income of such
organization determined in accordance with the
provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the Internal
Revenue Code, but without regard to the prohibition
against offsetting losses from patronage activities
against income from nonpatronage activities; except
that a cooperative corporation or association may make
an election to follow its federal income tax treatment
of patronage losses and nonpatronage losses. In the
event such election is made, such losses shall be

09800HB0390ham001 - 92 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
computed and carried over in a manner consistent with
subsection (a) of Section 207 of this Act and
apportioned by the apportionment factor reported by
the cooperative on its Illinois income tax return filed
for the taxable year in which the losses are incurred.
The election shall be effective for all taxable years
with original returns due on or after the date of the
election. In addition, the cooperative may file an
amended return or returns, as allowed under this Act,
to provide that the election shall be effective for
losses incurred or carried forward for taxable years
occurring prior to the date of the election. Once made,
the election may only be revoked upon approval of the
Director. The Department shall adopt rules setting
forth requirements for documenting the elections and
any resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
existing law;
(G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
an election for the taxable year under Section 1362 of
the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income of such
corporation determined in accordance with Section
1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except that
taxable income shall take into account those items

09800HB0390ham001 - 93 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and (ii)
a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
a federal election to opt out of the provisions of the
Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have applied
instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules as in
effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of such
corporation determined in accordance with the federal
Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982; and
(H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
taxable income determined in accordance with Section
703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
income shall take into account those items which are
required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
but which would be taken into account by an individual
in calculating his taxable income.
(3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
business has been classified as business income and in a
later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
related to that asset or business that generated the
non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
business income in the year of the disposition of the asset

09800HB0390ham001 - 94 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois
using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed
for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the
taxable year or the average of the apportionment fractions
computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act for
the taxable year and for the 2 immediately preceding
taxable years.
(f) Valuation limitation amount.
(1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
referred to in subsections (a) (2) (G), (c) (2) (I) and
(d)(2) (E) is an amount equal to:
(A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
which such gain was reported for the taxable year; plus
(B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of
such gain included in the amount determined under
subsection (a) (2) (F) or (c) (2) (H).
(2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.

09800HB0390ham001 - 95 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
(A) If the fair market value of property referred
to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on August
1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount for
such property is the lesser of (i) the excess of such
fair market value over the taxpayer's basis (for
determining gain) for such property on that date
(determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of
such property.
(B) If the fair market value of property referred
to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
amount for such property is that amount which bears the
same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the
property for federal income tax purposes for the
taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
period for the property.
(C) The Department shall prescribe such
regulations as may be necessary to carry out the
purposes of this paragraph.

09800HB0390ham001 - 96 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
(g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
to be deducted more than once.
(h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by
this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on
the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into
account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or
taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable
year, or in the amount of such items entering into the
computation of base income and net income under this Act for
such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of
August 1, 1969 or otherwise.

corporation. The "limitation amount" for a

09800HB0390ham001 - 116 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
corporation is the average outstanding
balances during the taxable year of customer
receivables (within the meaning of item (i))
originated by all members of the affiliated
group. If the average outstanding balances of
the loans made by a corporation to members of
its affiliated group exceed the limitation
amount, the interest income of that
corporation from qualifying loans shall be

members of its affiliated groups times a
fraction equal to the limitation amount
divided by the average outstanding balances of
the loans made by that corporation to members
of its affiliated group;

(including, without limitation, paid-in
capital on common and preferred stock and

persons outside the group determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles must be obligations of the
corporation.

on or before the effective date of this amendatory Act
of 1996 under subsection (a) of Section 903, subsection
(a) of Section 904, subsection (e) of Section 909, or
Section 912. A taxpayer that is a "financial
organization" that engages in any transaction with an

purposes of this Act.

December 31, 1996, a taxpayer that falls within the

subparagraphs (B) or (C) of this paragraph, but who
does not fall within the definition of a "financial

subparagraph applies only to the taxpayer making the
election and to those members of the taxpayer's unitary
business group who are ordinarily required to
apportion business income under the same subsection of
Section 304 of this Act as the taxpayer making the
election. No election allowed by this subparagraph
shall be made under a claim filed under subsection (d)
of Section 909 more than 30 days after the effective
date of this amendatory Act of 1996.

subsection, a finance lease shall be treated as a loan

any other purpose, including the purposes of any
regulatory agency to which the lessor is subject. A
finance lease is any transaction in the form of a lease
in which the lessee is treated as the owner of the
leased asset entitled to any deduction for

paragraph and clause (a)(3)(B)(ii) of Section 304,
business activity within the United States shall be
measured by means of the factors ordinarily applicable
under subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), or (h) of Section
304 except that, in the case of members ordinarily
required to apportion business income by means of the 3
factor formula of property, payroll and sales
specified in subsection (a) of Section 304, including
the formula as weighted in subsection (h) of Section
304, such members shall not use the sales factor in the
computation and the results of the property and payroll
factor computations of subsection (a) of Section 304
shall be divided by 2 (by one if either the property or
payroll factor has a denominator of zero). The
computation required by the preceding sentence shall,

09800HB0390ham001 - 128 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
States, insurance premiums on property or risk in the

income from sources within the United States, as the
case may be, by the respective worldwide figures for
such items. Common ownership in the case of
corporations is the direct or indirect control or
ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding voting
stock of the persons carrying on unitary business
activity. Unitary business activity can ordinarily be
illustrated where the activities of the members are:
(1) in the same general line (such as manufacturing,
wholesaling, retailing of tangible personal property,
insurance, transportation or finance); or (2) are
steps in a vertically structured enterprise or process
(such as the steps involved in the production of
natural resources, which might include exploration,
mining, refining, and marketing); and, in either
instance, the members are functionally integrated
through the exercise of strong centralized management
(where, for example, authority over such matters as
purchasing, financing, tax compliance, product line,
personnel, marketing and capital investment is not
left to each member).
(B) In no event, for taxable years ending prior to
December 31, 2013, shall any unitary business group
include members which are ordinarily required to

09800HB0390ham001 - 129 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
apportion business income under different subsections
of Section 304 except that for tax years ending on or
after December 31, 1987 this prohibition shall not
apply to a holding company that would otherwise be a
member of a unitary business group with taxpayers that
apportion business income under any of subsections
(b), (c), (c-1), or (d) of Section 304. If a unitary
business group would, but for the preceding sentence,
include members that are ordinarily required to
apportion business income under different subsections
of Section 304, then for each subsection of Section 304
for which there are two or more members, there shall be
a separate unitary business group composed of such
members. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, a
member is "ordinarily required to apportion business
income" under a particular subsection of Section 304 if
it would be required to use the apportionment method
prescribed by such subsection except for the fact that
it derives business income solely from Illinois. As
used in this paragraph, the phrase "United States"
means only the 50 states and the District of Columbia,
but does not include any territory or possession of the
United States or any area over which the United States
has asserted jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights
with respect to the exploration for or exploitation of
natural resources.

provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956
(12 U.S.C. 1841, et seq.) or because it is owned by
a bank or a bank holding company) that owns a
controlling interest in one or more other
taxpayers ("controlled taxpayers"); that, during
the period that includes the taxable year and the 2
immediately preceding taxable years or, if the
corporation was formed during the current or
immediately preceding taxable year, the taxable
years in which the corporation has been in
existence, derived substantially all its gross
income from dividends, interest, rents, royalties,
fees or other charges received from controlled
taxpayers for the provision of services, and gains
on the sale or other disposition of interests in
controlled taxpayers or in property leased or
licensed to controlled taxpayers or used by the
taxpayer in providing services to controlled
taxpayers; and that incurs no substantial expenses
other than expenses (including interest and other

09800HB0390ham001 - 131 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
costs of borrowing) incurred in connection with
the acquisition and holding of interests in
controlled taxpayers and in the provision of
services to controlled taxpayers or in the leasing
or licensing of property to controlled taxpayers.
(ii) The income of a holding company which is a
member of more than one unitary business group
shall be included in each unitary business group of
which it is a member on a pro rata basis, by
including in each unitary business group that
portion of the base income of the holding company
that bears the same proportion to the total base
income of the holding company as the gross receipts
of the unitary business group bears to the combined
gross receipts of all unitary business groups (in
both cases without regard to the holding company)
or on any other reasonable basis, consistently
applied.
(iii) A holding company shall apportion its
business income under the subsection of Section
304 used by the other members of its unitary
business group. The apportionment factors of a
holding company which would be a member of more
than one unitary business group shall be included
with the apportionment factors of each unitary
business group of which it is a member on a pro

09800HB0390ham001 - 132 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
rata basis using the same method used in clause
(ii).
(iv) The provisions of this subparagraph (C)
are intended to clarify existing law.
(D) If including the base income and factors of a
holding company in more than one unitary business group
under subparagraph (C) does not fairly reflect the
degree of integration between the holding company and
one or more of the unitary business groups, the
dependence of the holding company and one or more of
the unitary business groups upon each other, or the
contributions between the holding company and one or
more of the unitary business groups, the holding
company may petition the Director, under the
procedures provided under Section 304(f), for
permission to include all base income and factors of
the holding company only with members of a unitary
business group apportioning their business income
under one subsection of subsections (a), (b), (c), or
(d) of Section 304. If the petition is granted, the
holding company shall be included in a unitary business
group only with persons apportioning their business
income under the selected subsection of Section 304
until the Director grants a petition of the holding
company either to be included in more than one unitary
business group under subparagraph (C) or to include its

09800HB0390ham001 - 133 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
base income and factors only with members of a unitary
business group apportioning their business income
under a different subsection of Section 304.
(E) If the unitary business group members'
accounting periods differ, the common parent's
accounting period or, if there is no common parent, the
accounting period of the member that is expected to
have, on a recurring basis, the greatest Illinois
income tax liability must be used to determine whether
to use the apportionment method provided in subsection
(a) or subsection (h) of Section 304. The prohibition
against membership in a unitary business group for
taxpayers ordinarily required to apportion income
under different subsections of Section 304 does not
apply to taxpayers required to apportion income under
subsection (a) and subsection (h) of Section 304. The
provisions of this amendatory Act of 1998 apply to tax
years ending on or after December 31, 1998.
(28) Subchapter S corporation. The term "Subchapter S
corporation" means a corporation for which there is in

Revenue Code, or for which there is a federal election to
opt out of the provisions of the Subchapter S Revision Act
of 1982 and have applied instead the prior federal
Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982.
(30) Foreign person. The term "foreign person" means

09800HB0390ham001 - 134 - LRB098 03196 HLH 46276 a
any person who is a nonresident alien individual and any
nonindividual entity, regardless of where created or
