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.

theretofore reported in any document required by this Act to be filed in
the office of the Secretary of State.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (e) of this Section,
whenever the corporation shall be a party to a statutory merger and
shall be the surviving corporation, an additional license fee at the time

merged corporations.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (e) of this Section,
an additional license fee payable with the annual franchise tax each year in
