Date of Agreement

Project Site Location Schedule Number

Schedule Letter

Statement No. 77 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“Statement No. 77”) concludes that government financialstatement users need information about certain tax abatements provided to taxpayers. For purposes of Statement No. 77, a “taxabatement” results from an agreement between a government and an individual or entity in which the government promises to foregotax revenues and the individual or entity promises to subsequently take a specific action that contributes to economic development orotherwise benefits the government or its citizens. One of the items that must be reported with respect to tax abatements is the grossdollar amount of taxes abated during the period. A Fee in Lieu of Tax (“FILOT”) Agreement may be construed as a “tax abatement”and therefore, a governmental entity may be required to report the foregone “tax revenues” associated with the FILOT Agreement. TheDepartment of Revenue’s sole purpose in requesting the information listed on this form is to collect data that may aid governmentalentities in complying with the provisions of Statement No. 77. The Department of Revenue has not reviewed, and does not guarantee,the accuracy of the information contained in this schedule. To the extent the county has granted a taxpayer a special source revenuecredit or bond, that information is not covered in this schedule, nor are any other incentives that might have been granted to thetaxpayer.

(Address)

This form (PT-300G) should be sent to the County Auditor, where the FILOT project is located, at the same time the PT-300 is filed atthe Department of Revenue. A separate PT-300G should be completed for each Schedule S or Schedule T filed.
