STAT.

(2) For purposes of subsection (b)(1)(B), an individual shall be deemed to have exhausted his rights to extended compensation under a State law when no payments of extended compensation under a State law can be made under such law because such individual has received all the extended compensation available to him from his extended compensation account (as established under State law in accordance with section 202(b)(1) of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970). (3)(A)(i) For purposes of subsection (b)(2)(A), in the case of any State, an emergency benefit period— (I) shall begin with the third week after a week for which there is a State "emergency on" indicator; and ( II) shall end with the third week after the first week for which there is a State "emergency off" indicator. (ii) I n the case of any State, no emergency benefit period shall last for a period of less than 26 consecutive weeks. (iii) When a determination has been made that an emergency benefit period is beginning or ending with respect to any State,, the Secretary shall cause notice of such determination to be published in the Federal Register. (B)(i) For purposes of subparagraph (A), there is a State "emergency on" indicator for a week if there is a State or National "on" indicator for such week (as determined under subsections (d) and (e) of section 203 of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970). (ii) For purposes of subparagraph (A), there is a State "emergency off" indicator for a week if there is both a State and a National "off" indicator for such week (as determined under subsections (d) and (e) of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970). (d) For purposes of any agreement under this Act— (1) the amount of the emergency compensation which shall be payable to any individual for any week of total unemployment shall be equal to the amount of the regular compensation (including dependents' allowances) payable to him during his benefit year under the State law; and (2) the terms and conditions of the State law which apply to claims for regular compensation and to the payment thereof shall (except where inconsistent with the provisions of this Act or regulations of the Secretary promulgated to carry out this Act) apply to claims for emergency compensation and the payment thereof. (e)(1) Any agreement under this Act with a State shall provide that the State will establish, for each eligible individual who files an application for emergency compensation, an emergency compensation account. (2) The amount established in such account for any individual shall be equal to the lesser of-— (A) 50 per centum of the total amount of regular compensation (including dependents' allowances) payable to him with respect to the benefit year (as determined under the State law) on the basis of which he most recently received regular compensation; or (B) thirteen times his average weekly benefit amount (as determined for purposes of section 202(b)(1)(C) of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970) for his benefit year. (f)(1) No-emergency compensation shall be payable to any individual under an agreement entered into under this Act for any week beginning before whichever of the following is the latest:
