On page 6, after line 5, insert the following:

    "NEW SECTION. Sec. ..  A new section is added to chapter 82.04 RCW to read as follows:

    The creation, sale, and distribution of software by businesses located in distressed counties is exempt from the business and occupation tax. A distressed county means a county in which the average level of unemployment for the three years before the year in which an application is filed under this chapter exceeds the average state employment for those years by twenty percent."

Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.
