(2) of the sum so retained, one percent of all wagers shall be paid to the New York state agricultural and horse breeding and development fund;

(3) of the sum so retained, five percent shall be paid to the regional licensed harness track to be distributed in the same manner as though such payments were on races conducted at such track;

(4) of the sum so retained, an additional one percent of all wagers shall be paid to the regional licensed harness track for the purpose of increasing purses. c. In those regions in which there is more than one regional licensed harness track, the payments required under subparagraphs three and four of paragraph b of this subdivision shall be made to the regional track conducting a meet on the day out-of-state simulcasting occurs. If either no track is conducting a meet, or more than one track is conducting a meet, the distribution shall be made in the proportion that each track's handle bore to the total regional licensed harness track handle during the preceding calendar month or in accordance with a contractual agreement between the regional tracks and the off-track betting corporation. d. For wagers placed at an off-track betting facility in that portion of the western region located with a thoroughbred special betting district, but not included in a harness special betting district, one and one-half per centum of such wagers shall be paid to the racing association located in such district provided such association is neither accepting wagers nor simulcasting out-of-state harness races. Any payments required by this subdivision shall reduce payments required to be made to the regional licensed harness track under the provisions of subparagraph three of paragraph b of this subdivision. e. Any thoroughbred racing corporation or harness racing association or corporation or off-track betting corporation authorized pursuant to this section shall pay to the gaming commission as a regulatory fee, which fee is hereby levied, six-tenths of one percent of all wagering pools. 4. The provisions of section five hundred thirty-two of this chapter shall apply as follows: a. for all wagers placed at facilities licensed to receive such out-of-state simulcasts in accordance with section one thousand eight of this article, distribution shall first be made in accordance with subdivision three-a, and then fifty percent of the remaining amount in accordance with paragraph a of subdivision three of section five hundred thirty-two of this chapter and the other fifty percent shall be retained by such operator for its general purpose. b. for wagers placed at off-track betting branch offices on out-of-state tracks where such simulcasting is not conducted, in accordance with section five hundred thirty-two of this chapter. c. upon application of any facility licensed in accordance with sections one thousand seven and one thousand nine of this article, the board shall authorize the imposition of a sum equal to the amount authorized by section five hundred thirty-two of this chapter which shall apply to wagers placed at such facility. Such sums received by facilities licensed in accordance with section one thousand nine of this article shall be retained for the general purpose of the corporation. Such sums received by such facilities licensed in accordance with section one thousand seven of this article shall be distributed as follows:

(1) fifty percent shall be used exclusively for purses awarded in races conducted by such licensed facility; and

(2) fifty percent shall be retained by such licensed facility for its general purposes. 5. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the accepting of wagers on races conducted at out-of-state tracks without the display of the live simulcast signal if authorized under any other provision of this chapter.
