Sec. 122.65. For
the purposes of mobilizing capital for
loans
and investments
that provide significant potential to propel
the
advancement of technology and
build
the entrepreneurial
economy of
this state and promoting a
strong, professional venture
capital
industry in this state,
there is hereby created the
Ohio
venture
capital program. The program, pursuant to sections
122.65
to
122.6510 of the
Revised
Code,
shall consist of the following
general components: (A) The
lending to and investment of private moneys in seed
and venture
capital partnerships pursuant to a general lending and
investment policy prescribed by the
Ohio
venture capital authority
and implemented through a single,
designated, private, for-profit
investment fund;
(B) The
one-time issuance of state tax credits that are to
be transferred to
the authority, which credits, through the
proceeds received from
their sale, are available to provide
security against
losses incurred by the program fund up to the
amount of
outstanding contracts to purchase those tax credits, if
program revenues of
the
authority are insufficient for that
purpose.
Sec. 122.651. (A)
There is hereby created the
Ohio venture
capital authority, which shall have the powers
enumerated in
sections 122.65 to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code. The exercise by
the authority of its powers is hereby declared
and shall be an
essential state governmental function. The
authority is subject
to all laws generally applicable to state
agencies and public
officials, to the extent those laws do not
conflict with the
provisions of sections 122.65 to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code. (B) The
authority shall consist of seven members, not more
than five of
whom shall be of the same political party. Three of
the
members shall be appointed by the governor with the advice and
consent of the senate from among the general public and shall
have
experience in the field of banking, investments,
commercial law,
or industry that is relevant to the purposes of the
Ohio venture
capital program as stated in section 122.65 of the Revised Code.
Another member shall be appointed by the speaker of the house of
representatives. Another member shall
be appointed by the
president of the senate. The auditor of
state and the attorney
general, or their designees, shall be ex officio voting
members. Initial gubernatorial appointees to the
authority shall serve
staggered terms, one term expiring on
January 31, 2002, another
term expiring on
January 31, 2003, and another term expiring on
January 31,
2004. Thereafter, terms of office for gubernatorial
appointees shall be for four years. The initial terms of the
members appointed by the speaker of the house of representatives
and the
president of the senate shall expire on
January 31, 2002.
Thereafter, the members appointed by the speaker
of the house of
representatives and the president of the senate shall serve
two-year terms. A vacancy on the authority shall be filled in the
same manner as the original appointment, except that a person
appointed to fill a vacancy shall be appointed to the remainder
of
the unexpired term. Any member of the authority is eligible
for
reappointment. A member of the authority may be removed by
the member's
appointing authority for misfeasance, malfeasance,
or willful
neglect of duty or for other cause, after notice and
a public
hearing, unless the notice and hearing are waived in
writing by
the member. (C) Members
of the authority shall serve without
compensation but shall
receive their reasonable and necessary
expenses incurred in the
conduct of authority business. The
speaker of the house of
representatives and the president of the
senate shall each
designate a member of the authority to serve as
co-chairpersons. A majority
of the authority shall constitute a
quorum, and the
affirmative vote of a majority of the members
present shall be
necessary for any action taken by the authority.
No vacancy in
the membership of the authority impairs the rights
of a quorum
to exercise all rights and perform all duties of the
authority. (D) The
department of development shall provide the
authority with
office space and such technical assistance as the
authority
requires.
Sec. 122.652. Within
ninety days after the effective date of
this section, the
Ohio
venture capital authority shall establish,
and subsequently may
modify as it considers necessary, a written,
general lending and
investment policy for the
Ohio
venture capital
program. The authority is not subject to
Chapter
119. of the
Revised
Code
with respect to the establishment or modification of
the policy. The policy
shall meet all of the following
requirements: (A)
It is consistent with the
purposes of the program stated
in section 122.65 of the
Revised
Code. (B)
It permits the direction of only
private moneys into
private, for-profit seed and venture capital
partnerships that
commit to maintaining a significant focus in
this state,
demonstrate high historical levels of
successful lending and
investment performance, and, in the aggregate, reflect
portfolios
diversified by sector, stage of business development,
management
style, and geographic location. (C)
It specifies the general
conditions a private,
for-profit
investment fund must meet to be
designated the program
fund under
section 122.654 of the
Revised
Code. (D)
It includes lending and
investment standards and general
limitations on allowable
loans and investments that the authority
considers reasonable and
necessary to achieve the purposes of the
program stated in
section 122.65 of the
Revised
Code,
minimize the
need for the authority to sell tax credits
under
section 122.656
of the
Revised
Code,
ensure compliance of the program fund with
all applicable laws
of this state and the
United
States,
and
ensure the safety and soundness of loans and investments
made
under the program.
Sec. 122.653. (A)
The lending and investment policy
established
under section 122.652 of the
Revised
Code shall
specify the terms and conditions under which the
Ohio
venture
capital authority will use the proceeds received from the sale of
tax
credits under section 122.656 of the Revised Code, subject to
divisions
(B)
and (C) of this section, to provide security against
losses under the
Ohio
venture capital program by the program fund
designated under
section 122.654 of the
Revised
Code. These terms
and conditions shall be consistent with the
purposes of the
program stated in section 122.65 of the
Revised
Code,
shall
reflect the objective of achieving the maximum impact of
transfers
of tax credits authorized under sections 122.65 to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code
relative to those purposes, and shall prohibit
any
otherwise authorized use of the proceeds received from the sale of
tax
credits to provide security against a loss on a loan or
investment determined by the authority to be inconsistent with
the
policy adopted under section 122.652 of the
Revised
Code
and this
section. (B)(1) A
transfer of tax credits to or use of the proceeds
received from the sale of
tax credits by the authority under
sections 122.65
to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code
does not
constitute an obligation of this state. (2)
Nothing in sections 122.65 to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code
authorizes the providing of security against losses to the
program fund under
the
program: (a)
In
an aggregate amount exceeding the proceeds received

the
authority from the sale of tax credits under
section
122.656
of the
Revised
Code; (b)
On
any bases other than the following: (i)
The application first of moneys
of the
Ohio
venture
capital fund created under section 122.658 of the

affecting the program's continued viability; and then (ii)
Only
to the extent moneys under division

this section are insufficient
due to a determination under that
division of
an adverse effect or effects, the application of
moneys in the
Ohio

created under section 122.658
of the Revised Code. (c) The
authority shall not provide security against losses
under sections 122.65
to 122.6510 of the
Revised
Code
unless it is
assured that, at the time the security against losses is
provided,
sufficient contracts under division
(B)
of section 122.656 of the
Revised
Code
exist to fully provide the security against losses.
The authority shall not
sell tax credits under
section 122.656 of
the
Revised
Code
in an aggregate amount exceeding the amount
necessary to fully
provide the requisite security against losses
under the
program.
Sec. 122.654. (A)

Ohio
venture capital authority may
designate, as the program fund of
the authority, one private,

required under such respective
section, the taxpayer shall be
entitled
to a refund of the excess.
Sec. 122.658. (A)
