   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. The  racing,  pari-mutuel  wagering  and  breeding  law  is
 amended by adding a new section 509-b to read as follows:
   §  509-B.  SPECIAL RESERVE FUND. THE CORPORATION MAY CREATE AND ESTAB-
 LISH A SPECIAL RESERVE FUND FOR THE  PURPOSE  OF  MAKING  ANY  STATUTORY
 PAYMENTS  TO  ANY  NEW  YORK  STATE ENTITY AS REQUIRED BY LAW, INCLUDING
 PAYMENTS TO NEW YORK STATE  TRACKS.  SUCH  SPECIAL  RESERVE  FUND  SHALL
 CONSIST  OF  THE  AMOUNTS  SPECIFIED  PURSUANT TO SUBDIVISION THREE-A OF
 SECTION FIVE HUNDRED THIRTY-TWO OF THIS CHAPTER.  NO  SUCH  ONE  PERCENT
 CONTRIBUTION MAY BE MADE TO THE SPECIAL RESERVE FUND IF SUCH ONE PERCENT
 CONTRIBUTION  IS MADE TO THE CAPITAL ACQUISITION FUND UNDER SECTION FIVE
 HUNDRED NINE-A OF THIS ARTICLE.   IF SUCH ONE  PERCENT  CONTRIBUTION  IS
 MADE TO THE SPECIAL RESERVE FUND:
   1. SUCH CONTRIBUTION SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF ONE PERCENT OF THE
 TOTAL  PARI-MUTUEL WAGERING POOLS FOR THE QUARTER IN WHICH SUCH CONTRIB-
 UTION IS MADE;
   2. SUCH CONTRIBUTION SHALL NOT REDUCE  THE  AMOUNT  OF  QUARTERLY  NET
 REVENUES,  EXCLUSIVE OF SURCHARGE REVENUES, TO AN AMOUNT LESS THAN FIFTY
 PERCENT OF SUCH NET REVENUES; AND
   3. THE BALANCE OF SUCH FUND SHALL NOT EXCEED THE LESSER OF ONE PERCENT
 OF TOTAL PARI-MUTUEL WAGERING POOLS FOR THE PREVIOUS TWELVE  MONTHS,  OR
 THE  UNDEPRECIATED  VALUE  OF THE CORPORATION'S OFFICES, FACILITIES, AND
 PREMISES.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
