    b. 1. Notwithstanding section one  hundred  twenty-one  of  the  state
  finance  law, on or before the twentieth day of each month, the division
  shall pay into the state treasury, to the credit of  the  state  lottery
  fund  created by section ninety-two-c of the state finance law, not less
  than forty-five percent of the total amount for which tickets have  been
  sold  for  games  defined  in  paragraph  four  of subdivision a of this
  section during the preceding month, not less than thirty-five percent of
  the total amount for which tickets have been sold for games  defined  in
  paragraph  three  of  subdivision a of this section during the preceding
  month, not less than twenty  percent  of  the  total  amount  for  which
  tickets have been sold for games defined in paragraph two of subdivision
  a  of this section during the preceding month, provided however that for
  games with a prize payout of seventy-five percent of  the  total  amount
  for  which  tickets have been sold, the division shall pay not less than
  ten percent  of  sales  into  the  state  treasury  and  not  less  than
  twenty-five percent of the total amount for which tickets have been sold
  for  games  defined  in  paragraph  one of subdivision a of this section
  during the preceding month; and the balance of the total  revenue  after
  payout  for  prizes for games known as "video lottery gaming," including
  any joint, multi-jurisdiction, and out-of-state  video  lottery  gaming,
  (i)  less  ten  percent  of  the  total revenue wagered after payout for
  prizes to be retained by the division for operation, administration, and
  procurement purposes; (ii) less a vendor's fee the amount of which is to
  be paid for serving as a lottery agent to the track operator of a vendor
  track:
    (A) having fewer than one thousand one hundred video gaming  machines,
  at  a  rate  of  thirty-five percent for the first fifty million dollars
  annually, twenty-eight percent for  the  next  hundred  million  dollars
  annually,  and  twenty-five  percent  thereafter  of  the  total revenue
  wagered at the vendor track after payout for  prizes  pursuant  to  this
  chapter;
    (B)  having one thousand one hundred or more video gaming machines, at
  a rate of thirty-one percent of the total revenue wagered at the  vendor
  track  after payout for prizes pursuant to this chapter, except for such
  facility located in the county of Westchester, in which  case  the  rate
  shall be thirty percent until March thirty-first, two thousand twelve.

    Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  not  later  than  April  first,  two
  thousand twelve, the vendor fee  shall  become  thirty-one  percent  and
  remain  at  that level thereafter; and except for Aqueduct racetrack, in
  which case the vendor fee shall be thirty-eight  percent  of  the  total
  revenue  wagered at the vendor track after payout for prizes pursuant to
  this chapter;
    (C) notwithstanding clauses (A) and (B) of this subparagraph, when the
  vendor track is located in an area with a population of  less  than  one
  million  within  the  forty  mile radius around such track, at a rate of
  thirty-nine percent  for  the  first  fifty  million  dollars  annually,
  twenty-eight  percent for the next hundred million dollars annually, and
  twenty-five percent thereafter of  the  total  revenue  wagered  at  the
  vendor track after payout for prizes pursuant to this chapter;
    (D)  notwithstanding  clauses  (A),  (B) and (C) of this subparagraph,
  when the vendor track is  located  within  fifteen  miles  of  a  Native
  American class III gaming facility at a rate of forty-one percent of the
  total  revenue  wagered  at  the  vendor  track  after payout for prizes
  pursuant to this chapter;
    (E)  notwithstanding  clauses  (A),  (B),  (C)   and   (D)   of   this
  subparagraph,  when  a  Native  American  class  III  gaming facility is
  established, after the  effective  date  of  this  subparagraph,  within
  fifteen miles of the vendor track, at a rate of forty-one percent of the
  total revenue wagered after payout for prizes pursuant to this chapter;
    (E-1)  for  purposes  of this subdivision, the term "class III gaming"
  shall have the meaning defined in 25 U.S.C. § 2703(8).
    (F) notwithstanding clauses  (A),  (B),  (C),  (D)  and  (E)  of  this
  subparagraph,  when  a  vendor  track, is located in Sullivan county and
  within sixty miles from any gaming facility in a contiguous  state  such
  vendor fee shall, for a period of five years commencing April first, two
  thousand  eight,  be at a rate of forty-one percent of the total revenue
  wagered at the vendor track after payout for  prizes  pursuant  to  this
  chapter, after which time such rate shall be as for all tracks in clause
  (C) of this subparagraph.
    (G)  notwithstanding  clauses  (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) and (F) of this
  subparagraph, when no more than one vendor track located in the town  of
  Thompson  in Sullivan county at the site of the former Concord Resort at
  which a qualified capital investment has been made and no fewer than one
  thousand full-time,  permanent  employees  have  been  newly  hired,  is
  located  in  Sullivan  county  and is within sixty miles from any gaming
  facility in a contiguous state, then for a period  of  forty  years  the
  vendor's  fee  shall equal the total revenue wagered at the vendor track
  after payout of prizes pursuant  to  this  subdivision  reduced  by  the
  greater  of  (i)  twenty-five  percent of total revenue after payout for
  prizes for "video lottery games" or (ii) for the first  eight  years  of
  operation  thirty-eight million dollars, and beginning in the ninth year
  of operation such amount shall increase annually by the  lesser  of  the
  increase  in the consumer price index or two percent, plus seven percent
  of total revenue after payout of prizes. In addition, in the  event  the
  vendor  fee  is calculated pursuant to subclause (i) of this clause, the
  vendor's fee shall be further reduced by 11.11 percent of the amount  by
  which  total revenue after payout for prizes exceeds two hundred fifteen
  million dollars, but in  no  event  shall  such  reduction  exceed  five
  million dollars.
    Provided,  however,  that in the case of no more than one vendor track
  located in the town of Thompson in Sullivan county at the  site  of  the
  former  Concord  Resort  with  a  qualified  capital investment, and one
  thousand full-time, permanent employees if at any time after three years
  of opening operations of the licensed video gaming facility or  licensed

  vendor track, the vendor track experiences an employment shortfall, then
  the  recapture amount shall apply, for only such period as the shortfall
  exists.
    For  the purposes of this section "qualified capital investment" shall
  mean an investment of a  minimum  of  six  hundred  million  dollars  as
  reflected  by  audited financial statements of which not less than three
  hundred million dollars shall be comprised of  equity  and/or  mezzanine
  financing  as  an initial investment in a county where twelve percent of
  the population is below the federal poverty level  as  measured  by  the
  most  recent  Bureau of Census Statistics prior to the qualified capital
  investment commencing that results in the construction,  development  or
  improvement  of  at  least  one  eighteen  hole  golf  course,  and  the
  construction and issuance  of  certificates  of  occupancy  for  hotels,
  lodging,  spas, dining, retail and entertainment venues, parking garages
  and other capital improvements at or  adjacent  to  the  licensed  video
  gaming  facility  or  licensed  vendor  track which promote or encourage
  increased attendance at such facilities.
    For the purposes of  this  section,  "full-time,  permanent  employee"
  shall  mean  an  employee  who  has worked at the video gaming facility,
  vendor track or  related  and  adjacent  facilities  for  a  minimum  of
  thirty-five  hours per week for not less than four consecutive weeks and
  who is entitled to receive  the  usual  and  customary  fringe  benefits
  extended  to  other  employees  with  comparable rank and duties; or two
  part-time employees who have worked at the video gaming facility, vendor
  track or related and adjacent  facilities  for  a  combined  minimum  of
  thirty-five  hours per week for not less than four consecutive weeks and
  who are entitled to receive the  usual  and  customary  fringe  benefits
  extended to other employees with comparable rank and duties.
    For  the  purpose  of  this  section  "employment goal" shall mean one
  thousand five hundred full-time permanent employees after three years of
  opening operations of the licensed video  gaming  facility  or  licensed
  vendor track.
    For  the  purpose  of this section "employment shortfall" shall mean a
  level of employment that falls below the employment goal,  as  certified
  annually  by  vendor's  certified  accountants  and  the chairman of the
  empire state development corporation.
    For the purposes of this section "recapture  amount"  shall  mean  the
  difference between the amount of the vendor's fee paid to a vendor track
  with  a  qualified  capital  investment,  and  the  vendor fee otherwise
  payable to a vendor track pursuant to clause (F) of  this  subparagraph,
  that  is  reimbursable  by  the vendor track to the division for payment
  into the state treasury, to the credit of the state lottery fund created
  by section ninety-two-c of the state finance law, due to  an  employment
  shortfall  pursuant to the following schedule only for the period of the
  employment shortfall:
    (i) one hundred percent of the  recapture  amount  if  the  employment
  shortfall  is  greater  than  sixty-six  and  two-thirds  percent of the
  employment goal;
    (ii) seventy-five percent of the recapture amount  if  the  employment
  shortfall  is  greater  than  thirty-three  and one-third percent of the
  employment goal;
    (iii) forty-nine and one-half percent of the recapture amount  if  the
  employment  shortfall  is  greater than thirty percent of the employment
  goal;
    (iv) twenty-two percent of the  recapture  amount  if  the  employment
  shortfall is greater than twenty percent of the employment goal;
    (v) eleven percent of the recapture amount if the employment shortfall
  is greater than ten percent of the employment goal.

    (H)  notwithstanding  clauses  (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) of
  this subparagraph, the  track  operator  of  a  vendor  track  shall  be
  eligible for a vendor's capital award of up to four percent of the total
  revenue  wagered at the vendor track after payout for prizes pursuant to
  this  chapter,  which  shall  be  used  exclusively  for capital project
  investments to improve the facilities of the vendor track which  promote
  or  encourage  increased attendance at the video lottery gaming facility
  including,  but  not  limited  to  hotels,  other  lodging   facilities,
  entertainment  facilities,  retail facilities, dining facilities, events
  arenas, parking garages and other  improvements  that  enhance  facility
  amenities;  provided  that such capital investments shall be approved by
  the division, in consultation with the state racing and wagering  board,
  and  that  such vendor track demonstrates that such capital expenditures
  will increase patronage at such vendor track's facilities  and  increase
  the amount of revenue generated to support state education programs. The
  annual  amount of such vendor's capital awards that a vendor track shall
  be eligible to receive shall be limited  to  two  million  five  hundred
  thousand  dollars,  except for Aqueduct racetrack, for which there shall
  be no vendor's capital awards. Except for tracks having  less  than  one
  thousand one hundred video gaming machines, each track operator shall be
  required  to  co-invest  an  amount  of capital expenditure equal to its
  cumulative vendor's capital award. For all tracks, except  for  Aqueduct
  racetrack,  the  amount  of  any vendor's capital award that is not used
  during any one year period may be carried  over  into  subsequent  years
  ending   before   April   first,   two  thousand  fourteen.  Any  amount
  attributable to a capital expenditure approved prior to April first, two
  thousand fourteen and completed before April first, two thousand sixteen
  shall be eligible to receive the vendor's capital award.  In  the  event
  that  a  vendor  track's  capital expenditures, approved by the division
  prior to April first, two thousand fourteen and completed prior to April
  first, two  thousand  sixteen,  exceed  the  vendor  track's  cumulative
  capital  award  during  the  five  year  period  ending April first, two
  thousand fourteen, the vendor shall  continue  to  receive  the  capital
  award  after  April  first,  two  thousand  fourteen until such approved
  capital expenditures are  paid  to  the  vendor  track  subject  to  any
  required co-investment. In no event shall any vendor track that receives
  a  vendor  fee  pursuant  to  clause  (F) or (G) of this subparagraph be
  eligible for a vendor's capital award under this section.  Any  operator
  of  a vendor track which has received a vendor's capital award, choosing
  to divest the capital improvement toward which the  award  was  applied,
  prior  to the full depreciation of the capital improvement in accordance
  with generally accepted accounting principles, shall reimburse the state
  in amounts equal to the total of any such awards. Any capital award  not
  approved for a capital expenditure at a video lottery gaming facility by
  April  first,  two  thousand  fourteen shall be deposited into the state
  lottery fund for education aid; and
    (I) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the  contrary,  free  play
  allowance  credits  authorized by the division pursuant to subdivision f
  of section sixteen hundred seventeen-a of  this  article  shall  not  be
  included in the calculation of the total amount wagered on video lottery
  games,  the total amount wagered after payout of prizes, the vendor fees
  payable to the operators of video lottery facilities,  vendor's  capital
  awards,  fees  payable  to the division's video lottery gaming equipment
  contractors, or racing support payments.
    (iii) less an additional vendor's marketing allowance at a rate of ten
  percent for the first one hundred million  dollars  annually  and  eight
  percent  thereafter  of  the  total  revenue wagered at the vendor track
  after payout for prizes to be used by the vendor track for the marketing

  and  promotion  and  associated  costs  of  its  video  lottery   gaming
  operations  and pari-mutuel horse racing operations, as long as any such
  costs associated with pari-mutuel horse racing operations simultaneously
  encourage  increased  attendance  at  such vendor's video lottery gaming
  facilities, consistent with the customary manner of marketing comparable
  operations in the industry and subject to the overall supervision of the
  division; provided, however,  that  the  additional  vendor's  marketing
  allowance shall not exceed eight percent in any year for any operator of
  a  racetrack  located  in the county of Westchester or Queens; provided,
  however, a vendor track that receives a vendor fee  pursuant  to  clause
  (G)  of  subparagraph  (ii)  of  this  paragraph  shall  not receive the
  additional vendor's marketing allowance. In establishing the vendor fee,
  the division shall ensure the  maximum  lottery  support  for  education
  while  also  ensuring  the  effective  implementation of section sixteen
  hundred seventeen-a of this article through the provision of  reasonable
  reimbursements  and  compensation  to vendor tracks for participation in
  such program. Within twenty days after any award of lottery prizes,  the
  division  shall  pay into the state treasury, to the credit of the state
  lottery fund, the balance of all moneys received from the  sale  of  all
  tickets  for  the  lottery  in  which such prizes were awarded remaining
  after provision for the  payment  of  prizes  as  herein  provided.  Any
  revenues  derived  from the sale of advertising on lottery tickets shall
  be deposited in the state lottery fund.
    2. As consideration for  the  operation  of  a  video  lottery  gaming
  facility,  the  division,  shall  cause  the  investment  in  the racing
  industry of a portion of the vendor fee received pursuant  to  paragraph
  one  of  this  subdivision  in the manner set forth in this subdivision.
  With the exception of Aqueduct racetrack, each such track shall dedicate
  a portion of its vendor fees, received pursuant to clause (A), (B), (C),
  (D), (E), (F), or (G) of subparagraph (ii)  of  paragraph  one  of  this
  subdivision,  solely  for the purpose of enhancing purses at such track,
  in an amount equal to eight and  three-quarters  percent  of  the  total
  revenue  wagered  at  the  vendor  track  after  pay  out for prizes. In
  addition, with the exception of Aqueduct racetrack, one and  one-quarter
  percent  of  total revenue wagered at the vendor track after pay out for
  prizes, received pursuant to clause (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), or (G)
  of subparagraph (ii) of paragraph one  of  this  subdivision,  shall  be
  distributed  to  the  appropriate breeding fund for the manner of racing
  conducted by such track.
    Provided, further, that nothing in this paragraph shall  prevent  each
  track  from  entering  into an agreement, not to exceed five years, with
  the organization authorized to represent its  horsemen  to  increase  or
  decrease  the portion of its vendor fee dedicated to enhancing purses at
  such track during the years of participation by such track, or  to  race
  fewer dates than required herein.
    3.  Nothing  in  paragraph  two  of  this subdivision shall affect any
  agreement in effect on or before the effective date of this paragraph.
    c. 1. The specifications  for  video  lottery  gaming,  including  any
  joint,  multi-jurisdiction, and out-of-state video lottery gaming, shall
  be designed in such a manner as to pay prizes that average no less  than
  ninety percent of sales.
    2.  Of  the  ten  percent  retained by the division for administrative
  purposes, any amounts beyond that which are necessary for the  operation
  and  administration  of  this  pilot  program  shall be deposited in the
  lottery education account.
    d. Notwithstanding any law, rule or regulation to  the  contrary,  any
  successor  to  the New York Racing Association, Inc. with respect to the
  operation and maintenance of video lottery gaming at Aqueduct  racetrack

  shall  be  deemed the successor to the New York Racing Association, Inc.
  for purposes of being subject to existing contracts and loan agreements,
  if any, entered into by the New York Racing Association,  Inc.  directly
  related  to  the construction, operation, management and distribution of
  revenues of the video lottery gaming facility at Aqueduct racetrack.
    e. The video lottery gaming  operator  selected  to  operate  a  video
  lottery terminal facility at Aqueduct will be subject to a memorandum of
  understanding  between  the  governor, temporary president of the senate
  and the speaker of the assembly.  Notwithstanding  subparagraph  (i)  of
  paragraph  a  of  subdivision eight of section two hundred twelve of the
  racing, pari-mutuel wagering and breeding law, the state, pursuant to an
  agreement with the video lottery gaming  operator  to  operate  a  video
  lottery  terminal  facility  at Aqueduct, may authorize, as part of such
  agreement or in conjunction with  such  agreement  at  the  time  it  is
  executed,  additional  development  at the Aqueduct racing facility. The
  selection will be made in consultation with the franchised  corporation,
  but  is  not  subject  to  such  corporation's  approval. The franchised
  corporation shall not be eligible to compete to operate or to operate  a
  video lottery terminal facility at Aqueduct. The state will use its best
  efforts  to  ensure that the video lottery terminal facility at Aqueduct
  is opened as soon as is practicable and will, if practicable, pursue the
  construction of a temporary video lottery terminal facility at  Aqueduct
  subject  to  staying  within  an  agreed  budget  for such video lottery
  terminal facility and subject to such temporary facility not  having  an
  adverse  impact  on  opening  of  the permanent facility at Aqueduct. To
  facilitate the opening of the video lottery gaming facility at  Aqueduct
  as  soon  as  is practicable, the division of the lottery may extend the
  term of any existing contract related to the video lottery system.
    f. As consideration for the operation  of  the  video  lottery  gaming
  facility  at Aqueduct racetrack, the division shall cause the investment
  in the racing industry of the following percentages of the vendor fee to
  be deposited or paid, as follows:
    1. Six and one-half percent of  the  total  wagered  after  payout  of
  prizes  for  the  first  year  of  operation  of video lottery gaming at
  Aqueduct racetrack, seven percent of the total wagered after  payout  of
  prizes  for the second year of operation, and seven and one-half percent
  of the total wagered after payout  of  prizes  for  the  third  year  of
  operation  and  thereafter,  for  the  purpose  of  enhancing  purses at
  Aqueduct racetrack, Belmont Park racetrack and Saratoga race course.
    2. One percent of the total wagered after payout  of  prizes  for  the
  first  year  of operation of video lottery gaming at Aqueduct racetrack,
  one and one-quarter percent of the total wagered after payout of  prizes
  for  the  second  year of operation, and one and one-half percent of the
  total wagered after payout of prizes for the third year of operation and
  thereafter, for an appropriate breeding fund for the  manner  of  racing
  conducted  at  Aqueduct  racetrack,  Belmont Park racetrack and Saratoga
  race course.
    3. Four percent of the total revenue wagered after payout of prizes to
  be deposited into an account of the franchised  corporation  established
  pursuant  to section two hundred six of the racing, pari-mutuel wagering
  and breeding law to be used for capital expenditures in maintaining  and
  upgrading  Aqueduct  racetrack, Belmont Park racetrack and Saratoga race
  course.
    4. Three percent of the total revenue wagered after payout for  prizes
  to   be   deposited  into  an  account  of  the  franchised  corporation
  established  pursuant  to  section  two  hundred  six  of  the   racing,
  pari-mutuel   wagering   and   breeding  law  to  be  used  for  general

  thoroughbred racing  operations  at  Aqueduct  racetrack,  Belmont  Park
  racetrack and Saratoga race course.
    5.  Paragraphs  one,  two, three and four of this subdivision shall be
  known collectively as the "racing support payments".
    g. In the event the state elects to construct a video lottery terminal
  facility at the Aqueduct racetrack, all video lottery terminal  revenues
  payable  to  the video lottery gaming operator at the Aqueduct racetrack
  remaining after payment of the racing support payments  shall  first  be
  used  to  repay the state's advances for (i) confirmation of the chapter
  eleven plan of reorganization  and  cash  advances  for  the  franchised
  corporation's  operations  following  confirmation of the chapter eleven
  plan of reorganization and (ii) the amount  expended  by  the  state  to
  construct  such  video  lottery  terminal facility at Aqueduct racetrack
  pursuant to an agreement with the state. Subparagraphs (i) and  (ii)  of
  this  paragraph  shall  be  defined  as the state advance amount and the
  amounts payable to the division of the lottery.
    h. In no circumstance shall net proceeds of the lottery, including the
  proceeds  from  video  lottery  gaming,  be  used  for  the  payment  of
  non-lottery   expenses  of  the  gaming  commission,  administrative  or
  otherwise.
