Senate Bill 60 ("SB 60") was signed by the Governor and enacted into law. SB 60 amends Act 20-2012, also known as the "Act to Promote Export Services" ("Act 20") to phase out the Base Period Income on tax exemption decrees over a four (4) year period.

Article 4 of Act 20 is amended to adjust the Base Period Income by reducing said amount by 25% annually, until the same is reduced to zero (0) for the fourth taxable year in which the terms of the decree of the exempted business under Act 20 apply (the "Phase-Out").

The Phase Out will only apply to tax exemption decrees granted after June 30, 2017.
