Compiler's Notes: In the third sentence of subsection (4), the phrase "in section 27(b)(1) and (2) and..." evidently should read "in section 27(b)(1) and (2) had...". The fourth sentence of subsection (4) evidently should read as the following two sentences: "However, an individual's weekly supplemental benefit rate shall not exceed $30.00. Supplemental benefits paid under this subsection based on services performed for employers liable for contributions on a contributory basis shall be charged to the solvency account."
