HOUSE MOTION ____

]

MR. SPEAKER:

    I move that House Bill 1479 be amended to read as follows:

SOURCE: Page 1, line 17; (09)MO147901.1. -->     Page 1, after line 17, begin a new paragraph and insert:
SOURCE: IC 20-28-9-2.5; (09)MO147901.2. -->     "SECTION 2. IC 20-28-9-2.5 IS ADDED TO THE INDIANA CODE AS A NEW SECTION TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2009]: Sec. 2.5. (a) This section applies to an individual who is a licensed teacher who has obtained a permit to teach in a content area designated as a shortage area by the state board.
    (b) An individual described in subsection (a) may be given:
        (1) a teacher's minimum salary as:
            (A) computed under IC 20-28-9; or
            (B) determined by a local salary schedule of the school corporation;
        (2) any additional salary determined by a local salary schedule of the school corporation; and
        (3) additional compensation that is less than or equal to the compensation determined under STEP FOUR of the formula set forth in subsection (c).
    (c) The formula for the additional compensation referred to in subsection (b)(3) is as follows:
        STEP ONE: Determine the lesser of:
            (A) the number of school years that the individual has taught; or
            (B) ten (10) years.
        STEP TWO: Determine the result of:
            (A) ten (10) years; minus
            (B) the STEP ONE result.
        STEP THREE: Determine the result of:
            (A) the STEP TWO result (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01); multiplied by
            (B) one-hundredth (0.01).
        STEP FOUR: Determine the result of:
            (A) the STEP THREE result; multiplied by
            (B) the master contract salary of the school corporation.
If the result determined in STEP TWO is equal to zero (0), the individual may not be given any additional compensation under subsection (b)(3).
    (d) The following individuals are not eligible to receive additional compensation under subsection (b)(3):
        (1) A holder of an emergency permit.
        (2) A holder of a transition to teaching permit.
    (e) Notwithstanding subsection (c), if a collective bargaining agreement allows for the payment of additional compensation to individuals described in subsection (a) and the additional compensation is greater than or equal to an amount determined under subsection (c), the amount of additional compensation that the collective bargaining agreement allows for is not subject to this section.
".
