 1        AN ACT concerning banking.

 2        Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.  The  Illinois  Banking  Act  is  amended  by
 5    changing Section 32 as follows:

 6        (205 ILCS 5/32) (from Ch. 17, par. 339)
 7        Sec.   32.   Basic   loaning   limits.   The  liabilities
 8    outstanding at one time to a state bank of a person for money
 9    borrowed, including the liabilities of a partnership or joint
10    venture in the liabilities of the  several  members  thereof,
11    shall  not  exceed  25%  20%  of the amount of the unimpaired
12    capital and unimpaired surplus of the bank.
13        The liabilities to any state bank of a person may  exceed
14    25%  20%  of the unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus of
15    the bank, provided that (i) the excess amount  from  time  to
16    time  outstanding  is  fully  secured  by  readily marketable
17    collateral having a market value, as determined  by  reliable
18    and  continuously available quotations, at least equal to the
19    excess amount outstanding; and  (ii)  the  total  liabilities
20    shall not exceed 30% of the unimpaired capital and unimpaired
21    surplus of the bank.
22        The  following  shall not be considered as money borrowed
23    within the meaning of this Section:
24             (1)  The  purchase  or  of  discount  of  bills   of
25        exchange  drawn  in  good faith against actually existing
26        values.
27             (2)  The  purchase  or  discount  of  commercial  or
28        business paper actually owned by the  person  negotiating
29        the same.
30             (3)  The  purchase  of  or loaning money in exchange
31        for evidences of indebtedness which shall be  secured  by
 
HB1089 Enrolled             -2-                LRB9206828JSpc
 1        mortgage  or  trust  deed upon productive real estate the
 2        value of which, as ascertained by the oath of 2 qualified
 3        appraisers,  neither  of  whom  shall  be   an   officer,
 4        director, or employee of the bank or of any subsidiary or
 5        affiliate  of  the  bank,  is  double  the  amount of the
 6        principal debt  secured  at  the  time  of  the  original
 7        purchase of evidence of indebtedness or loan of money and
 8        which  is  still  double the amount of the principal debt
 9        secured at the time of any renewal of the indebtedness or
10        loan, and which mortgage or trust deed is  shown,  either
11        by a guaranty policy of a title guaranty company approved
12        by  the  Commissioner  or by a registrar's certificate of
13        title in any county having adopted the provisions of  the
14        Registered  Titles (Torrens) Act, or by the opinion of an
15        attorney-at-law, to be a first lien upon the real  estate
16        therein described, and real estate shall not be deemed to
17        be  encumbered  within the meaning of this subsection (3)
18        by reason  of  the  existence  of  instruments  reserving
19        rights-of-way, sewer rights and rights in wells, building
20        restrictions  or  other  restrictive  covenants,  nor  by
21        reason  of  the  fact  it is subject to lease under which
22        rents or profits are reserved by the owners.
23             (4)  The   purchase   of    marketable    investment
24        securities.
25             (5)  The  liability  to a state bank of a person who
26        is an accommodation party to,  or  guarantor  of  payment
27        for,  any  evidence of indebtedness of another person who
28        obtains a loan from or  discounts  paper  with  or  sells
29        paper  to  the  state  bank; but the total liability to a
30        state bank of a  person  as  an  accommodation  party  or
31        guarantor  of  payment  in  respect  of such evidences of
32        indebtedness shall not exceed 20% of the  amount  of  the
33        unimpaired  capital  and  unimpaired surplus of the bank;
34        provided however that the liability of  an  accommodation
 
HB1089 Enrolled             -3-                LRB9206828JSpc
 1        party  to  paper  excepted  under  subsection  2  of this
 2        Section shall not be included in the computation of  this
 3        limitation.
 4             (6)  The  liability to a state bank of a person, who
 5        as a guarantor, guarantees collection of  the  obligation
 6        or indebtedness of another person.
 7        The  total  liabilities  of  any  one  person,  for money
 8    borrowed, or otherwise, shall not exceed 25% of the  deposits
 9    of  the  bank,  and  those total liabilities shall at no time
10    exceed 50% of  the  amount  of  the  unimpaired  capital  and
11    unimpaired  surplus  of the bank. Absent an actual unremedied
12    breach,  the  obligation  or  responsibility  for  breach  of
13    warranties or  representations,  express  or  implied,  of  a
14    person  transferring  negotiable or non-negotiable paper to a
15    bank without recourse and without guaranty of payment,  shall
16    not  be  included in determining the amount of liabilities of
17    the person to the bank for borrowed money or  otherwise;  and
18    in  the  event  of and to the extent of an unremedied breach,
19    the amount remaining unpaid for principal and interest on the
20    paper in respect of which the unremedied breach exists  shall
21    thereafter  for the purpose of determining whether subsequent
22    transactions giving  rise  to  additional  liability  of  the
23    person  to the state bank for borrowed money or otherwise are
24    within the limitations of Sections 32 through 34 of this Act,
25    be included in computing the amount  of  liabilities  of  the
26    person for borrowed money or otherwise.
27        The  liability  of a person to a state bank on account of
28    acceptances made or issued by the state bank on behalf of the
29    person shall be included in  the  computation  of  the  total
30    liabilities  of  the  person for money borrowed except to the
31    extent the  acceptances  grow  out  of  transactions  of  the
32    character  described  in subsection (6) of Section 34 of this
33    Act  and  are  otherwise  within  the  limitations  of   that
34    subsection;  provided  nevertheless  that  any  such excepted
 
HB1089 Enrolled             -4-                LRB9206828JSpc
 1    acceptances acquired by the state  bank  which  accepted  the
 2    same  shall be included in the computation of the liabilities
 3    of the person to the state bank for money borrowed.
