operated function. The governmental unit with which the contract	40
has been made shall be deemed the employer for the purposes of	41
administering this chapter.	42

(3) Any person who is an employee of a public employer,	43
notwithstanding that the person's compensation for that employment	44
is derived from funds of a person or entity other than the	45
employer. Credit for such service shall be included as total	46

required by this chapter, and the employer makes the payments	48

retirement system established under the laws of this state	86
rendered prior to January 1, 1935, provided that if the employee	87
claiming the service was employed in any capacity covered by that	88
other system after that other system was established, credit for	89
the service may be allowed by the public employees retirement	90
system only when the employee has made payment, to be computed on	91
the salary earned from the date of appointment to the date	92
membership was established in the public employees retirement	93
system, at the rate in effect at the time of payment, and the	94
employer has made payment of the corresponding full liability as	95
provided by section 145.44 of the Revised Code. "Prior service"	96
also means all service credited for active duty with the armed	97

to January 1, 1935, as an employee of a board of education	102
establishes, before retirement, one year or more of contributing	103
service in the state teachers retirement system or school	104
employees retirement system, then the prior service ceases to be	105
the liability of this system.	106

If the board determines that a position of any member in any	107
calendar year prior to January 1, 1935, was a part-time position,	108
the board shall determine what fractional part of a year's credit	109
shall be allowed by the following formula:	110

(1) When the member has been either elected or appointed to	111
an office the term of which was two or more years and for which an	112
annual salary is established, the fractional part of the year's	113
credit shall be computed as follows:	114

First, when the member's annual salary is one thousand	115
dollars or less, the service credit for each such calendar year	116
shall be forty per cent of a year.	117

Second, for each full one hundred dollars of annual salary	118
above one thousand dollars, the member's service credit for each	119
such calendar year shall be increased by two and one-half per	120
cent.	121

(2) When the member is paid on a per diem basis, the service	122
credit for any single year of the service shall be determined by	123
using the number of days of service for which the compensation was	124
received in any such year as a numerator and using two hundred	125
fifty days as a denominator.	126

(3) When the member is paid on an hourly basis, the service	127
credit for any single year of the service shall be determined by	128
using the number of hours of service for which the compensation	129
was received in any such year as a numerator and using two	130
thousand hours as a denominator.	131

(F) "Contributor" means any person who has an account in the	132

person or persons who, as the result of the death of a member,	138
contributor, or retirant, qualify for or are receiving some right	139
or benefit under this chapter.	140

145.37 of the Revised Code, means all service credited to a member	142
of the retirement system since last becoming a member, including	143

the member's military service credit computed as provided in this	147
chapter; all service credit established pursuant to section	148
145.297 of the Revised Code; and any other service credited under	149
this chapter. In addition, "total service credit" includes any	150
period, not in excess of three years, during which a member was	151
out of service and receiving benefits under Chapters 4121. and	152
4123. of the Revised Code. For the exclusive purpose of satisfying	153
the service credit requirement and of determining eligibility for	154
benefits under sections 145.32, 145.33, 145.331, 145.35, 145.36,	155
and 145.361 of the Revised Code, "five or more years of total	156
service credit" means sixty or more calendar months of	157
contributing service in this system.	158

also means eighteen or more calendar months of employment by a	161
municipal corporation that formerly operated its own retirement	162
plan for its employees or a part of its employees, provided that	163
all employees of that municipal retirement plan who have eighteen	164
or more months of such employment, upon establishing membership in	165
the public employees retirement system, shall make a payment of	166
the contributions they would have paid had they been members of	167
this system for the eighteen months of employment preceding the	168
date membership was established. When that payment has been made	169
by all such employee members, a corresponding payment shall be	170
paid into the employers' accumulation fund by that municipal	171
corporation as the employer of the employees.	172

(3) Where a member also is a member of the state teachers	173
retirement system or the school employees retirement system, or	174
both, except in cases of retirement on a combined basis pursuant	175
to section 145.37 of the Revised Code or as provided in section	176
145.383 of the Revised Code, service credit for any period shall	177
be credited on the basis of the ratio that contributions to the	178
public employees retirement system bear to total contributions in	179
all state retirement systems.	180

(4) Not more than one year of credit may be given for any	181
period of twelve months.	182

contributor's account under section 145.471 or 145.472 of the	192
Revised Code.	193

(K)(1) "Final average salary" means the quotient obtained by	194
dividing by three the sum of the three full calendar years of	195
contributing service in which the member's earnable salary was	196
highest, except that if the member has a partial year of	197
contributing service in the year the member's employment	198
terminates and the member's earnable salary for the partial year	199
is higher than for any comparable period in the three years, the	200
member's earnable salary for the partial year shall be substituted	201
for the member's earnable salary for the comparable period during	202
the three years in which the member's earnable salary was lowest.	203

(2) If a member has less than three years of contributing	204
service, the member's final average salary shall be the member's	205
total earnable salary divided by the total number of years,	206
including any fraction of a year, of the member's contributing	207
service.	208

(3) For the purpose of calculating benefits payable to a	209
member qualifying for service credit under division (Z) of this	210
section, "final average salary" means the total earnable salary on	211
which contributions were made divided by the total number of years	212
during which contributions were made, including any fraction of a	213
year. If contributions were made for less than twelve months,	214
"final average salary" means the member's total earnable salary.	215

(L) "Annuity" means payments for life derived from	216

pension reserve fund as provided in this chapter. All annuities	218

in lieu of any annuity, granted to a retirant as provided in this	223
chapter.	224

member or beneficiary under this chapter.	326

(T)(1) "Contributing service" means all service credited to a	327

credit for any service shall be allowed by the following formula:	331

(a) For each month for which the member's earnable salary is	332
two hundred fifty dollars or more, allow one month's credit.	333

(b) For each month for which the member's earnable salary is	334
less than two hundred fifty dollars, allow a fraction of a month's	335
credit. The numerator of this fraction shall be the earnable	336
salary during the month, and the denominator shall be two hundred	337
fifty dollars, except that if the member's annual earnable salary	338
is less than six hundred dollars, the member's credit shall not be	339
reduced below twenty per cent of a year for a calendar year of	340
employment during which the member worked each month. Division	341
(T)(1)(b) of this section shall not reduce any credit earned	342
before January 1, 1985.	343

(2) Notwithstanding division (T)(1) of this section, an	344
elected official who prior to January 1, 1980, was granted a full	345
year of credit for each year of service as an elected official	346
shall be considered to have earned a full year of credit for each	347
year of service regardless of whether the service was full-time or	348
part-time. The public employees retirement board has no authority	349
to reduce the credit.	350

(U) "State retirement board" means the public employees	351
retirement board, the school employees retirement board, or the	352
state teachers retirement board.	353

(V) "Retirant" means any former member who retires and is	354

145.33, 145.331, 145.34, and 145.46 of the Revised Code.	356

(W) "Employer contribution" means the amount paid by an	357
employer as determined under section 145.48 of the Revised Code.	358

(X) "Public service terminates" means the last day for which	359
a public employee is compensated for services performed for an	360
employer or the date of the employee's death, whichever occurs	361
first.	362

(Y) When a member has been elected or appointed to an office,	363
the term of which is two or more years, for which an annual salary	364
is established, and in the event that the salary of the office is	365
increased and the member is denied the additional salary by reason	366
of any constitutional provision prohibiting an increase in salary	367
during a term of office, the member may elect to have the amount	368
of the member's contributions calculated upon the basis of the	369
increased salary for the office. At the member's request, the	370
board shall compute the total additional amount the member would	371
have contributed, or the amount by which each of the member's	372
contributions would have increased, had the member received the	373
increased salary for the office the member holds. If the member	374
elects to have the amount by which the member's contribution would	375
have increased withheld from the member's salary, the member shall	376
notify the employer, and the employer shall make the withholding	377
and transmit it to the retirement system. A member who has not	378
elected to have that amount withheld may elect at any time to make	379
a payment to the retirement system equal to the additional amount	380
the member's contribution would have increased, plus interest on	381
that contribution, compounded annually at a rate established by	382
the board and computed from the date on which the last	383
contribution would have been withheld from the member's salary to	384
the date of payment. A member may make a payment for part of the	385
period for which the increased contribution was not withheld, in	386
which case the interest shall be computed from the date the last	387
contribution would have been withheld for the period for which the	388
payment is made. Upon the payment of the increased contributions	389
as provided in this division, the increased annual salary as	390
provided by law for the office for the period for which the member	391
paid increased contributions thereon shall be used in determining	392
the member's earnable salary for the purpose of computing the	393
member's final average salary.	394

(Z) "Five years of service credit," for the exclusive purpose	395
of satisfying the service credit requirements and of determining	396
eligibility for benefits under section 145.33 of the Revised Code,	397
means employment covered under this chapter or under a former	398
retirement plan operated, recognized, or endorsed by the employer	399
prior to coverage under this chapter or under a combination of the	400
coverage.	401

(AA) "Deputy sheriff" means any person who is commissioned	402
and employed as a full-time peace officer by the sheriff of any	403
county, and has been so employed since on or before December 31,	404
1965; any person who is or has been commissioned and employed as a	405
peace officer by the sheriff of any county since January 1, 1966,	406
and who has received a certificate attesting to the person's	407

state university law enforcement officer an employee designated as	1320
a state university law enforcement officer under division (B) of	1321

felony. If the state university law enforcement officer files an	1323
appeal from that conviction and the conviction is upheld by the	1324
highest court to which the appeal is taken or if the state	1325
university law enforcement officer does not file a timely appeal,	1326
the board of trustees shall terminate the employment of that state	1327
university law enforcement officer. If the state university law	1328
enforcement officer files an appeal that results in that officer's	1329
acquittal of the felony or conviction of a misdemeanor, or in the	1330
dismissal of the felony charge against that officer, the board of	1331
trustees shall reinstate that state university law enforcement	1332
officer. A state university law enforcement officer who is	1333
reinstated under division (C)(2)(b) of this section shall not	1334
receive any back pay unless that officer's conviction of the	1335
felony was reversed on appeal, or the felony charge was dismissed,	1336
because the court found insufficient evidence to convict the	1337
officer of the felony.	1338

(3) Division (C) of this section does not apply regarding an	1339
offense that was committed prior to January 1, 1997.	1340

(4) The suspension from employment, or the termination of the	1341

pledge of and lien on such fund or funds provided in the bond	1521

liens may provide for parity with obligations or assurances	1523
theretofore or thereafter issued by the institution. The available	1524
receipts so pledged and thereafter received by the institution and	1525
the funds so pledged are immediately subject to the lien of such	1526
pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further act, and	1527

parties having claims of any kind against the institution,	1529
irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof, and	1530
shall create a perfected security interest for all purposes of	1531
Chapter 1309. of the Revised Code, without the necessity for	1532
separation or delivery of funds or for the filing or recording of	1533
the bond proceedings by which such pledge is created or any	1534
certificate, statement, or other document with respect thereto;	1535
and the pledge of such available receipts and funds shall be	1536

provisions for their redemption prior to maturity at the option of	1549
the institution of higher education at such price or prices and	1550
under such terms and conditions as are provided in the bond	1551
proceedings;	1552

(3) Limitations on the purposes to which the proceeds of the	1553
obligations or assurances may be applied;	1554

(4) The rates or rentals or other charges for the use of or	1555
right to use the facilities or entrepreneurial projects financed	1556
by the obligations or assurances, or other properties the revenues	1557
or receipts from which are pledged to the obligations or	1558
assurances, and rules for assuring any applicable use and	1559
occupancy thereof, including limitations upon the right to modify	1560
such rates, rentals, other charges, or regulations;	1561

(5) The use and expenditure of the pledged available receipts	1562
in such manner and to such extent as shall be determined, which	1563
may include provision for the payment of the expenses of	1564
operation, maintenance, and repair of facilities or	1565
entrepreneurial projects so that such expenses, or part thereof,	1566
shall be paid or provided as a charge prior or subsequent to the	1567
payment of bond service charges and any other payments required to	1568
be made by the bond proceedings;	1569

(6) Limitations on the issuance of additional obligations or	1570
assurances;	1571

(7) The terms of any trust agreement or indenture securing	1572

(8) The deposit, investment, and application of funds, and	1575
the safeguarding of funds on hand or on deposit without regard to	1576

company or other financial institution that acts as depository of	1578
any moneys under the bond proceedings shall furnish such	1579
indemnifying bonds or pledge such securities as required by the	1580
bond proceedings or otherwise by the institution of higher	1581
education;	1582

(9) The binding effect of any or every provision of the bond	1583
proceedings upon such officer, board, commission, authority,	1584
agency, department, or other person or body as may from time to	1585
time have the authority under law to take such actions as may be	1586
necessary to perform all or any part of the duty required by such	1587
provision;	1588

projects and of the institution, its officers and employees.	1595

institution of higher education or a facsimile thereof affixed	1597
thereto or printed thereon and shall be executed by such officers	1598
as are designated in the bond proceedings, which execution may be	1599
by facsimile signatures. Any obligations or assurances may be	1600
executed by an officer who, on the date of execution, is the	1601
proper officer although on the date of such obligations or	1602
assurances such person was not the proper officer. In case any	1603
officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature appears	1604
on any such obligation or assurance ceases to be such officer	1605
before delivery thereof, such signature or facsimile is	1606
nevertheless valid and sufficient for all purposes as if the	1607
person had remained such officer until such delivery; and in case	1608
the seal of the institution has been changed after a facsimile of	1609
the seal has been imprinted on such obligations or assurances,	1610
such facsimile seal continues to be sufficient as to such	1611
obligations or assurances and obligations or assurances issued in	1612
substitution or exchange therefor.	1613

(G) All such obligations or assurances are negotiable	1614
instruments and securities under Chapter 1308. of the Revised	1615
Code, subject to the provisions of the bond proceedings as to	1616
registration. The obligations or assurances may be issued in	1617
coupon or in registered form, or both. Provision may be made for	1618
the registration of any obligations or assurances with coupons	1619
attached thereto as to principal alone or as to both principal and	1620
interest, their exchange for obligations or assurances so	1621
registered, and for the conversion or reconversion into	1622
obligations or assurances with coupons attached thereto of any	1623
obligations or assurances registered as to both principal and	1624
interest, and for reasonable charges for such registration,	1625
exchange, conversion, and reconversion.	1626

assurances, the institution of higher education may issue interim	1628
receipts or certificates which shall be exchanged for such	1629
definitive obligations or assurances.	1630

(I) Such obligations or assurances may be secured	1631
additionally by a trust agreement or indenture between the	1632
institution of higher education and a corporate trustee, which may	1633
be any trust company or bank having the powers of a trust company	1634
within or without this state but authorized to exercise trust	1635
powers within this state. Any such agreement or indenture may	1636
contain the resolution authorizing the issuance of the obligations	1637
or assurances, any provisions that may be contained in the bond	1638
proceedings as authorized by this section, and other provisions	1639
which are customary or appropriate in an agreement or indenture of	1640

secured thereby, or provision therefor has been made;	1646

of such payments or agreement by mandamus, the appointment of a	1651
receiver, suit in equity, action at law, or any combination of the	1652
foregoing;	1653

assurances and of the trustee, and provisions for protecting and	1655
enforcing them, including limitations on rights of individual	1656

or qualifications relating to any of the foregoing.	1662

(J) Each duty of the institution of higher education and its	1663
officers or employees, undertaken pursuant to the bond proceedings	1664
or any related agreement or lease made under authority of law, is	1665
hereby established as a duty of such institution, and of each such	1666
officer or employee having authority to perform such duty,	1667
specially enjoined by law resulting from an office, trust, or	1668

such bonds, or from the proceeds of such bonds or renewal notes,	1681
or both, as the institution of higher education provides in its	1682
resolution authorizing such notes. Such notes may be additionally	1683
secured by covenants of the institution to the effect that it will	1684
do such or all things necessary for the issuance of such bonds or	1685
renewal notes in appropriate amount, and either exchange such	1686
bonds or renewal notes therefor or apply the proceeds thereof to	1687

Code, it may agree to restrict or subordinate any pledge it may	1744

completions that were achieved by a student that was eligible to	2505
receive Ohio need-based financial aid shall have their enrollments	2506
weighted by the following:	2507

(i) Campus-specific course completion rates by discipline	2508
area and level; and	2509

(ii) A statewide average OIG/OCOG course completion weight	2510
determined for each discipline area and level. The statewide	2511
average OIG/OCOG course completion weight shall be determined by	2512
calculating the difference between the percentage of traditional	2513
students who complete a course and the percentage of Ohio	2514
Instructional Grant and Ohio College Opportunity Grant recipients	2515
who complete the same course.	2516

(4) In calculating the core subsidy entitlements for Medical	2517
II models only, the Board of Regents shall use the following count	2518
of FTE students:	2519

(a) For those medical schools whose current year enrollment,	2520
including students repeating terms, is below the base enrollment,	2521
the Medical II FTE enrollment shall equal: 65 per cent of the base	2522
enrollment plus 35 per cent of the current year enrollment	2523
including students repeating terms, where the base enrollment is:	2524

	The Ohio State University		1010		2525
	University of Cincinnati		833		2526
	University of Toledo		650		2527
	Wright State University		433		2528
	Ohio University		433		2529
	Northeastern Northeast Ohio Universities College of Medicine Medical University		433		2530

(b) For those medical schools whose current year enrollment,	2531
excluding students repeating terms, is equal to or greater than	2532
the base enrollment, the Medical II FTE enrollment shall equal the	2533
base enrollment plus the FTE for repeating students.	2534

(c) Students repeating terms may be no more than five per	2535
cent of current year enrollment.	2536

(5) The state share of instruction to state-supported	2537
universities for students enrolled in law schools in fiscal year	2538
2010 and fiscal year 2011 shall be calculated by using the number	2539
of subsidy-eligible FTE law school students funded by state	2540
subsidy in fiscal year 1995 or the actual number of	2541
subsidy-eligible FTE law school students at the institution in the	2542
fiscal year, whichever is less.	2543

(B) TOTAL COSTS PER FULL-TIME EQUIVALENT STUDENT

2544

For purposes of calculating state share of instruction	2545
allocations, the total instructional costs per full-time	2546
equivalent student shall be:	2547

(D) CALCULATION OF STATE SHARE OF INSTRUCTION FORMULA	2608
ENTITLEMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS	2609

(1) Of the foregoing appropriation items 235501, State Share	2610
of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction - Federal	2611
Stimulus - Education, 5 per cent of the appropriation for	2612
state-supported community colleges, state community colleges, and	2613
technical colleges in fiscal year 2011 shall be allocated to	2614
colleges in proportion to their share of college student success	2615
factors. In fiscal year 2011, student success factors shall	2616
include all measureable student outcomes that contribute to	2617
student achievement as determined by the Chancellor of the Board	2618
of Regents based on the recommendation of the consultation created	2619
in the Section of this actsections of Am. Sub. H.B. 1 of the	2620
128th General Assembly entitled "Studies to Determine Weights for	2621
Fiscal Year 2011 State Share of Instruction Formula."	2622

(2) Of the foregoing appropriation items 235501, State Share	2623
of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction - Federal	2624
Stimulus - Education, up to 12.89 per cent of the appropriation	2625
for university main campuses in each fiscal year shall be reserved	2626
for support of doctoral programs to implement the funding	2627
recommendations made by representatives of the universities. The	2628
amount so reserved shall be referred to as the doctoral set-aside.	2629

The doctoral set-aside shall be allocated to universities as	2630
follows:	2631

(a) 90 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2010	2632
and 80 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2011	2633
shall be allocated to universities in proportion to their share of	2634
the total number of Doctoral I equivalent FTEs as calculated on an	2635
institutional basis using the greater of the two-year or five-year	2636
FTEs for the period fiscal year 1994 through fiscal year 1998 with	2637
annualized FTEs for fiscal years 1994 through 1997 and all-term	2638
FTEs for fiscal year 1998 as adjusted to reflect the effects of	2639
doctoral review and subsequent changes in Doctoral I equivalent	2640
enrollments. For the purposes of this calculation, Doctoral I	2641
equivalent FTEs shall equal the sum of Doctoral I FTEs plus 1.5	2642
times the sum of Doctoral II FTEs.	2643

(b) 5 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2010	2644
and 10 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2011	2645
shall be allocated to universities in proportion to each campus's	2646
share of the total statewide doctoral degrees, weighted by the	2647
cost of the doctoral discipline. In calculating each campus's	2648
doctoral degrees the Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall use	2649
the three-year average doctoral degrees awarded for the three-year	2650
period ending in the prior year.	2651

(c) 2.5 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year	2652
2010 and 5 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2011	2653
shall be allocated to universities in proportion to their share of	2654
research grant activity, using data collected and published by the	2655
National Science Foundation. Grant awards from the National Health	2656
Institute shall be weighted at 50 per cent.	2657

(d) 2.5 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year	2658
2010 and 5 per cent of the doctoral set-aside in fiscal year 2011	2659
shall be allocated to universities based on other quality measures	2660
that contribute to the advancement of the Chancellor's strategic	2661
plan. These other quality measures shall be identified by the	2662
Chancellor in consultation with universities. If for any reason	2663
metrics for distributing the quality component of the doctoral	2664
set-aside are not identified prior to the fiscal year allocation	2665
process, this portion of the doctoral set-aside funds shall be	2666
allocated to universities based on division (D)(2)(a) of this	2667
section.	2668

(3) Of the foregoing appropriation items 235501, State Share	2669
of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction - Federal	2670
Stimulus - Education, 6.96 per cent of the appropriation for	2671
university main campuses in each fiscal year shall be reserved for	2672
support of Medical II FTEs. The amount so reserved shall be	2673
referred to as the medical II set-aside.	2674

The medical II set-aside shall be allocated to universities	2675
in proportion to their share of the total number of Medical II	2676
FTEs as calculated in division (A) of this section, weighted by	2677
model cost.	2678

(4) Of the foregoing appropriation items 235501, State Share	2679
of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction - Federal	2680
Stimulus - Education, 1.61 per cent of the appropriation for	2681
university main campuses in each fiscal year shall be reserved for	2682
support of Medical I FTEs. The amount so reserved shall be	2683
referred to as the medical I set-aside.	2684

The medical I set-aside shall be allocated to universities in	2685
proportion to their share of the total number of Medical I FTEs as	2686
calculated in division (A) of this section.	2687

(5) Of the foregoing appropriation items 235501, State Share	2688
of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction - Federal	2689
Stimulus - Education, 5 per cent of the fiscal year 2010	2690
appropriation for university main campuses and 10 per cent of the	2691
fiscal year 2011 appropriation for university main campuses shall	2692
be reserved for support of associate, baccalaureate, master's, and	2693
professional level degree attainment.	2694

The degree attainment funding shall be allocated to	2695
universities in proportion to each campus's share of the total	2696
statewide degrees granted, weighted by the cost of the degree	2697
programs.	2698

In calculating the subsidy entitlements for degree attainment	2699
at university main campuses, the Chancellor of the Board of	2700
Regents shall use the following count of degrees and degree costs:	2701

(a) For those associate degrees awarded by a state-supported	2702
university, the subsidy eligible degrees granted are defined as	2703
only those earned by students attending a university that received	2704
funding under GRF appropriation item 235418, Access Challenge, in	2705
fiscal year 2009.	2706

(b) In calculating each campus's count of degrees, the	2707
Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall use the three-year	2708
average associate, baccalaureate, master's, and professional	2709
degrees awarded for the three-year period ending in the prior	2710
year.	2711

Eligible associate degrees defined in division (D)(5)(a) of	2712
this section and all bachelor's degrees earned by a student that	2713
was eligible to receive Ohio need-based financial aid shall have	2714
their associates degree cost weighted by a statewide OIG/OCOG	2715
degree completion weight.	2716

The statewide average OIG/OCOG degree completion weight shall	2717
be determined by calculating the difference between the percentage	2718
of traditional students who earned a degree and the percentage of	2719
Ohio Instructional Grant and Ohio College Opportunity Grant	2720
recipients who earned a degree during the same time period.	2721

(6) Each campus's state share of instruction base formula	2722
earnings shall be determined as follows:	2723

(a) For each campus in each fiscal year, the instructional	2724
costs shall be determined by multiplying the amounts listed above	2725
in divisions (B) and (C) of this section by (i) average	2726
subsidy-eligible FTEs for the two-year period ending in the prior	2727
year for all models except Doctoral I and Doctoral II; and (ii)	2728
average subsidy-eligible FTEs for the five-year period ending in	2729
the prior year for all models except Doctoral I and Doctoral II.	2730

(b) The Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall compute the	2731
two calculations listed in division (D)(6)(a) of this section and	2732
use the greater amount as each campus's instructional costs.	2733

(c) The Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall compute a	2734
uniform state share of instructional costs for each sector.	2735

(i) For the state supported community colleges, state	2736
community colleges, and technical colleges, the Chancellor of the	2737
Board of Regents shall compute the uniform state share of	2738
institutional costs by dividing the earmark in division (C)(1) of	2739
Section 371.20.90 of this actAm. Sub. H.B. 1 of the 128th General	2740
Assembly, less the student college success allocation as described	2741
in division (D)(1) of this section, by the sum of all eligible	2742
campuses' instructional costs as calculated in division (D)(6)(b)	2743
of this section.	2744

(ii) For the state supported university branch campuses, the	2745
Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall compute the uniform state	2746
share of institutional costs by dividing the earmark in division	2747
(C)(2) of Section 371.20.90 of this actAm. Sub. H.B. 1 of the	2748
128th General Assembly by the sum of all campuses' instructional	2749
costs as calculated in division (D)(6)(b) of this section.	2750

(iii) For the state supported university main campuses, the	2751
Chancellor of the Board of Regents shall compute the uniform state	2752
share of institutional costs by dividing the earmark in division	2753
(C)(3) of Section 371.20.90 of this actAm. Sub. H.B. 1 of the	2754
128th General Assembly, less the doctoral set-aside, less the	2755
medical I set-aside, less the medical II set-aside, and less the	2756
degree attainment funding as calculated in divisions (D)(2) to (5)	2757
of this section, by the sum of all campuses' instructional costs	2758
as calculated in division (D)(6)(b) of this section.	2759

(d) The formula entitlement for each sector's campuses shall	2760
be determined by multiplying the uniform state share of costs	2761
calculated in division (D)(6)(c) of this section by the campus's	2762
instructional cost determined in division (D)(6)(b) of this	2763
section.	2764

(7) In addition to the student success allocation, doctoral	2765
set-aside, medical I set-aside, medical II set-aside, and the	2766
degree attainment allocation determined in divisiondivisions	2767
(D)(1) to (D)(5) of this section and the formula entitlement	2768
determined in division (D)(6) of this section, an allocation based	2769
on facility-based plant operations and maintenance (POM) subsidy	2770
shall be made. For each eligible campus, the amount of the POM	2771
allocation in each fiscal year shall be distributed based on what	2772
each campus received in the fiscal year 2009 POM allocation.	2773

Any POM allocations required by this division shall be funded	2774
by proportionately reducing formula entitlement earnings,	2775
including the POM allocations, for all campuses in that sector.	2776

(8) STABILITY IN STATE SHARE OF INSTRUCTION FUNDING

2777

In addition to and after the adjustments noted above, in	2778
fiscal year 2010, no campus shall receive a state share of	2779
instruction allocation that is less than 99 per cent of the prior	2780
year's combined state share of instruction, access challenge, and	2781
success challenge amounts. Funds shall be made available to	2782
support this allocation by proportionately reducing formula	2783
entitlement earnings from those campuses, within each sector, that	2784
are not receiving stability funding.	2785

In fiscal year 2011, in addition to and after the adjustments	2786
noted above, no campus shall receive a state share of instruction	2787
allocation that is less than 98 per cent of the prior year's	2788
combined state share of instruction, access challenge, and success	2789
challenge amounts. Funds shall be made available to support this	2790
allocation by proportionately reducing formula entitlement	2791
earnings from those campuses, within each sector, that do not	2792
receive stability funding.	2793

(9) CAPITAL COMPONENT DEDUCTION

2794

After all other adjustments have been made, state share of	2795
instruction earnings shall be reduced for each campus by the	2796
amount, if any, by which debt service charged in Am. H.B. 748 of	2797
the 121st General Assembly, Am. Sub. H.B. 850 of the 122nd General	2798
Assembly, Am. Sub. H.B. 640 of the 123rd General Assembly, H.B.	2799
675 of the 124th General Assembly, Am. Sub. H.B. 16 of the 126th	2800
General Assembly, and Am. Sub. H.B. 699 of the 126th General	2801
Assembly, Am. Sub. H.B. 496 of the 127th General Assembly, and Am.	2802
Sub. H.B. 562 of the 127th General Assembly for that campus	2803
exceeds that campus's capital component earnings. The sum of the	2804
amounts deducted shall be transferred to appropriation item	2805
235552, Capital Component, in each fiscal year.	2806

(E) EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES

2807

Adjustments may be made to the state share of instruction	2808
payments and other subsidies distributed by the Chancellor of the	2809
Board of Regents to state-assisted colleges and universities for	2810
exceptional circumstances. No adjustments for exceptional	2811
circumstances may be made without the recommendation of the	2812
Chancellor and the approval of the Controlling Board.	2813

(F) APPROPRIATION REDUCTIONS TO THE STATE SHARE OF	2814
INSTRUCTION	2815

The standard provisions of the state share of instruction	2816
calculation as described in the preceding sections of temporary	2817
law shall apply to any reductions made to appropriation items	2818
235501, State Share of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of	2819
Instruction - Federal Stimulus - Education, before the Board of	2820
Regents has formally approved the final allocation of the state	2821
share of instruction funds for any fiscal year.	2822

Any reductions made to appropriation items 235501, State	2823
Share of Instruction, and 235644, State Share of Instruction -	2824
Federal Stimulus - Education, after the Board of Regents has	2825
formally approved the final allocation of the state share of	2826
instruction funds for any fiscal year, shall be uniformly applied	2827
to each campus in proportion to its share of the final allocation.	2828

(G) DISTRIBUTION OF STATE SHARE OF INSTRUCTION

2829

The state share of instruction payments to the institutions	2830
shall be in substantially equal monthly amounts during the fiscal	2831
year, unless otherwise determined by the Director of Budget and	2832
Management pursuant to section 126.09 of the Revised Code.	2833
Payments during the first six months of the fiscal year shall be	2834
based upon the state share of instruction appropriation estimates	2835
made for the various institutions of higher education according to	2836
the Chancellor of the Board of Regents enrollment estimates.	2837
Payments during the last six months of the fiscal year shall be	2838
