Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

or creates a lien or charge on, or right to profits from, any property not
situated in this State, this fee shall be paid only on the amount of any such

in this State is of the total property on which such securities issue creates a
lien or charge, or from which a right to profits is established; and provided
further, that no public utility shall be required to pay any fee for permission
granted to it by the Commission in any of the following cases:
(1) To guarantee bonds or other securities.

|
|
(b) When issued for the purpose of converting,
| | exchanging, taking over, refunding, discharging or retiring bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued prior to January 1, 1914, and upon which no fee has been previously paid.

(3) To issue shares of stock upon the conversion of convertible bonds,
notes or other evidences of indebtedness or upon the conversion of
convertible stock of another class in accordance with a conversion
privilege contained in such convertible bonds, notes or other evidences of
indebtedness or contained in such convertible stock, as the case may be,
where a fee (in the amount payable under this Section in the case of
evidences of indebtedness) has been previously paid for the issuance of
such convertible bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, or where
a fee (in the amount payable under this Section in the case of stocks) has
been previously paid for the issuance of such convertible stock, or where
such convertible stock was issued prior to July 1, 1951 and upon which no
fee has been previously paid, as the case may be.
(4) To issue shares of stocks for the purpose of redeeming or otherwise
retiring, or in exchange for, other stocks, where the fee for the issuance
of such other stocks has been previously paid, or where such other stocks
were issued prior to July 1, 1951 and upon which no fee has been previously
paid, as the case may be, but only to the extent that the par or stated
value of the shares of stock so issued does not exceed the par or stated
value of the other stocks redeemed or otherwise retired or exchanged.
All fees collected by the Commission under this Section shall be paid
within 10 days after the receipt of the same, accompanied by a detailed
statement of the same, into the Public Utility Fund in the State treasury.
