  title.

  this article which are  not  reimbursed  to  the  fund  by  the  federal

    2.    Subsidiary contributions.   (i) Employers shall pay a subsidiary
  contribution  based  on  their  rate  as  specified  in  the  subsidiary
  contribution  schedule  as  applied  to  wages paid in the four calendar
  quarters immediately subsequent to the computation  date.  The  rate  of
  each employer's subsidiary contribution shall be the percentage shown in
  the  column  headed by the general account balance as of the computation
  date and on the same line designating  the  range  of  employer  account
  percentages  in  which  an  individual  employer's account is found. The
  subsidiary rate for employers who have not been liable for contributions
  during at least the five  completed  calendar  quarters  ending  on  the
  computation  date  shall  be  the highest percentage for those employers
  with  a  positive  employer's  account   percentage.   Such   subsidiary
  contribution  shall  be  paid in addition to any other amounts otherwise
  payable under this article, and shall be assessed and collected  in  the
  same  manner  as  the  contributions  prescribed by section five hundred
  seventy of this title. The proceeds of the subsidiary contribution shall
  be deposited in the fund and credited to the general account.
    (ii)  The terms "employer account percentage", "computation date"  and
  "wages"  shall  have the meaning prescribed pursuant to article eighteen
  of this chapter.
